Dunno what cave you've been living in but XP Pro x64 has been available since late 2004. You can even download an 180 day trail version direct from Microsoft. There's also an x64 version of Server 2003 available.
And let's not forget that trolls get a 10% health regeneration bonus outside of combat, and 10% of their health regen while in combat;
Ok then you have NE 1% dodge > 10% regen in combat. Totaling avoiding all damage is better than 2-3hp every tick. Out of combat is irrelevent as food/bandages/heals are far faster than passive regen. Gnome 5% int > Tauren 5% hp, bigger mana pool and higher crit rate with spells that completely ignore armor vs taking one extra melee hit from a non-leet. BTW I did say "actually usefull" traits.
They have survivability like a Paladin, nukes like a Mage, and pets like a Hunter. And they're "screwed".
Here let me fix your typos...
They have survivability like a Hunter, nukes like a mage half their level, and pets like ones bought from the crazy cat lady.
All by one of their common pets are killed in just a few hits, the extra health from demonology basically upgrades them to a mail wearing class, and their nukes are only half as potent as a mage's, even with curse of shadows up for the.5 seconds before it's removed. But that's ok since in WoW's version of pvp ranking you don't actually have to kill very many people (only 25 lucky shadowbolts per week), all you have to do is damage them then run away while some other class (hunter/mage/rogue) gets around to killing them for you.
I've played both sides, Horde is far easier than Alliance.
Examples? Oh that's right, you have none because there aren't any that hold up.
So, you're saying that the majority of people should be denied content because they chose, at launch, the side that wound up being the most popular?
No I'm saying they're paying for their previous free ride. And stop trying to make "the side that wound up being the most popular" sound like some kind of accident, it wasn't. It was pure self-interested easy mode seekers who were in beta or followed it that caused it. It was well known in beta that the easy way to 60 and defeating the available end-game content was to be Alliance, and it was not a secret from those not in the beta.
Sorry, I don't buy that. I don't care if the population is imbalanced. I don't care what Blizzard has to do to give every player the fair chance to use the new content they've added, but they have to do something.
Like what? Turn all Night Elves, which on most servers usually outnumber all of horde by themselves, into Horde? The problem with access to the new pvp content IS the population imbalanced. A problem created by the players as a result of WoW's Alliance bias in leveling and end-game content that existed at launch and still exists today. Fortunately for at least the leveling aspect this is starting to become more balanced with the recent patch (additional FPs/quests), but not much can be done about the PvE advantages Alliance has and will continue to have unless Shaman get a cleanse equivelent and Tuarens can be priests with a fear ward equivelent, both of which are not going to happen.
no one knew what the populations of the sides were going to be like.
There you go again making it sound like some sort of accident.
Basic reasons include easier travel, safer zones to level in, stronger racial abilities, and better quest rewards.
Obviously you haven't played both sides. The only part of the above that is even remotely close to being true is "stronger racial abilities", everything else is biased torwards Alliance, number of quests, quest rewards, number of zones to level in (10-40, post 40 both sides are in the same zones with a few exceptions). This is mostly because Alliance was "finished" (read: developed) first durring beta.
As for the "stronger racial abilities" Horde have, as of last patch which fixed Orc passive, three out of the eight traits are actually usefull (WotF, War Stomp, Stun Resist), Alliance's only really good racials are on their least popular races, gnomes (Escape Artist) and dwarves (Stoneform), both of which are good for pvp. So yeah 3:2 for the horde when it comes to racial traits, everything else: Alliance ftw.
As opposed to Fear Ward, sure makes: Onyxia, Magmadar, The Beast, and mass-pvp easier (yes it's dispellable, but no one dispells in mass-pvp its all about tagging as many people as possible to farm that CP) and you can bet it'll be plenty usefull in future raid/instance content. WotF has nothing on that when it comes to PvE, three dwarf priests completely nullifies the best anti-tank/de-aggro ability mobs have.
Then there's Cleanse which frees up priests, mages, and druids from secondary duties, resist Auras that are more powerful than equivelent totems and are MOBILE, Blessing of Wisdom where rank 1 returns more per tick than the top rank mana totem at same tick rate.
Then there's the quest and zone disparities that allow Alliance characters to level at a faster rate. That's not easy mode? Sorry you're in such denial.
I know you can just extract the torrent with a resource editor and use your own BT client,
In fact you don't even need the resource editor, just a hex viewer and tail, which is what I do to download and continue seeding on my Linux system at work.
but it's also worth noting that the WoW BT client has issues of it's own. You can't cap either upload
Oh yes you can, you just have to run the patcher from the command line instead of having the client auto-launch it. It has options for:
limiting upload rates,/maxuploadrate
how many peers to upload to,/maxuploads
how many peers to talk to,/maxallowin
how many peers to download from,/maxsimultaneous
It also recently (around the 2nd or 3rd retail patch) has built in support for direct download from Blizzard servers (hosts listed in the torrent). It does however lack support of limiting download rate.
Yet i doubt the lady would have any problem with kid reading great works of literature, religious books or historical documents , Alot of which have explicit violance which is far in excess of that of games.
No, she is most likely exactly the kind of lady that's all for banning certain books as well.
Usually those types can be delt with by pointing out how bloody and violent certain parts of the bible are.
Uh no. You're right in that they're usually screened at midnight to check for defects, however that usually happens several DAYS before the actual first showing, up to 7 days prior.
How about the best of both worlds using hard links? As an added bonus uninstalling the last application that uses a particular library will remove the library as well instead of leaving it around as cruft. Of course this requires the libs and applications exist on the same filesystem.
Next thing we know, they will be trying to take credit for writing Romeo and Juliet and say that it's been embedded in the Windows source since before Shakespeare was born.
Well Microsoft's Windows programmers are the proverbial infinite number of monkeys banging away at typewriters (keyboards), so I don't see why not.
So if Fed-ex or UPS wants to open and look through your parcels... I guess that is just fine by you.
And yet they, FedEx/UPS, can do just that, and so can the USPS, if they believe what is contained in the package is something that cannot be shipped legally.
Although, we had a car that was fscked, and let you take the key out in any position (even On)...
That is actually a common feature on many diesles, even more so on commecial (trucking), and European/Japanese cars. I believe it is also common on emergency vechicle (think police cars) conversions.
..he may as well just release a big stonking 6 disc set instead....
And you really think this is *NOT* his plan? Come on, we're talking Lucas here. Release "final" box set of the "original" trilogy now and hopefully grab tons of cash. Then a year later release a box set of the prequals, then 6-12 months later the super-special-ultra-delux box set, with stickers!, of the prequals, then 6-12 months later a box set of all 6, then 6-12 months later.... you get the idea.
However this also means that the fancy GDO system provides no security at all if it has a built in method to reset the code sequence. This was demonstrated by the Skylink device.
Don't even think about....

It is also in the bests interests of Mexico that the illegals don't die either. A dead worker doesn't send home any money.
Except they're talking about Google Australia, not Google (USA). You'd know that had you RTFA.

So I take it you neither read the article or watched the video then?
Or pictures of calico cats, or instructions on how to breed more of them.
One would think it being an editorial, and not a documentary, would disqualify it from winning the award for Best Documentary....
