The last few beta versions of AIM have had the ability to send messages to ICQ. Alt+S to add someone, then insert the ICQ number. It then queries the ICQ Db and pulls the name out, but allows you to alias it to someone else. Send away.
Would you look at that - you can alias ICQ users but not other AIM users.
That disabled the fleet, yes, it said so in the movie. I was talking about the sentinels being disabled by Neo when Smith was already in coma on the ship that picked up Morpheus & co.
Smith was already in coma, and an EMP blast from the other ship would have disabled it in the process. It looked like an EMP blast at first (in relation to the others we've seen), but the other ship was still working.
No, it was not Wile E Coyote. Good try though. It was actually a cartoon released in theatres in 1955 called "The Hole Idea" where Calvin Q. Calculus invents a portable hole that comes in liquid form (easy to squirt onto wall) that gets stolen by a criminal Link . I remember watching it a while back.
At the end his nagging wife drops down to hell through the last hole, IIRC.
Not only that, but one of them (on the rescuing ship, don't remember who) says that they massacred the fleet and kept right on drilling. It would seem rather odd that they would continue to drill past Zion.
I agree with you - I don't think Zion has been destroyed. But I also don't think that the Zion and the real world we have seen are in fact real. My theory right after I saw it goes with many other people's theories - there are several layers of Matrices, and now Neo and Smith are awake in the next layer. Smith said he was freed - was he freed from the next layer in? Are agents actually real people in a deeper level of the matrix? Did Neo free Smith to the first matrix we saw, then Smith got out to the 'real world'? Many things are possible with how they left it.
Nonono, that's NASCAR you're talking about. Granted there are a few courses that aren't eliptical, but F1 racing is at least somewhat better. I do think it's a waste of gas, though.
They think they're cool, and at my school, they were the "cool" ones. It's not that everyone thought they were - far from. It's just how it *was*. My school was definately full of cliques, not a very pleasant experience. I should've made it more clear that when I said cool I was being sarcastic.
You must not have gone to my high school, then. Nerds were frequently looked down upon by the "preps." Though they aren't really jocks anymore, but the pot smoking cool people.
Today I went out to the kickoff meeting for the FIRST robotics competition http://www.usfirst.org in Richmond, VA, and there I saw that a team somewhere had built their own version of Segway. It had the same design to it, and the innards were made entirely out of parts included in the kits that teams are to build their robots out of. It was slightly jerky on the autoleveling, but it still worked as the operator leaned forward and back. Very interesting, and I'm sure the project didn't cost near the same as the real Segway.
Here in the US, yes. What about in low-income countries where you actually have to budget your money carefully I think they would compromise.
You could also look at it this way: using traditional internet access, they would have to pay for access AND the phone line. So yes, they are getting more for the same price.
No, I'm not. No matter what, they will always pay just 25 cents an hour. Phone only. It doesn't matter what they use the phone for. If they choose to talk less and get online more, that's their choice. Either way they pay only 25 cents per hour.

I've always had similar thoughts. If they want civilians to colonize the Moon I'd be more than willing to leave everything behind and go.
That's what I don't get. How can you fall forward on a machine that is specifically designed to NOT fall forward? Unless the battery died, of course.

Yeah, I noticed that. In fact, it is the exact same set of TVs, except that all the TVs we can see show the exact same thing.
I get depressed everytime I see his face . . .
Agreed. I've been staring at screens since I was 6 (14 years), and have the same vision. If there is a relation, I'm an exception.

Yeah - lets not let the rest of the world do anything because the US doesn't want them to.
There were also the same number of Zions - at the end through the rambling of the architect.
Yeah, I saw that. My friend swears he saw a short clip from Bill and Ted. I'm watching for that one next time I go.

It says "No" F*ck! Even in the future nothing works!

Nah - there's always a reason to make fun of him
Participating, yes, but the actual parts used most likely cost less.

*advertisement* *advertisement* And I've got a TIP for you, get the POINT?
*as* I walk away.
Sorry - had to.

But they are getting more for no additional cost.
