Maybe so, but without the forgetting, forgiving is always provisional. You're forgiven today, but non necessarily tomorrow...
Under those circumstances, I'd say you haven't been forgiven at all then. When you forgive someone you stop blaming them. They may still be responsible and you may still remember but you no longer harbor any ill will towards them.
These can hold 20x the capacity, but you'll still have to buy the theatrical and extended special editions of LOTR separately
So really, Hollywood execs will render these discs moot, at lest as far as home entertainment purposes go.
I imagine a scenario where both are on the same disc but you need to purchase a code to "unlock" the second. Not only do they save a few pennies on pressing discs but they also hinder the second-hand market if the code is made unique to your player.
Personally, I still see no compelling reason to upgrade my movie collection from DVDs.
Since it's OS, maybe that's the best feature YOU could add.
That sounds good in theory but not everyone's a (capable) programmer. Perhaps the best feature they could add is bounties, meaning people can offer cash for someone with the necessary skillset to implement the feature they want.
What I didn't like about SC4 was the level of micromanagement it required. In SC2K you could actually walk away for an hour and you'd still have a decent city when you came back. In SC4 however, the whole economy would tank if you forgot to pause it while you were out taking a leak. Of course, making a custom building that provides enough power for every town on the grid and has a ridiculously negative pollution level certainly makes things easier!
If anyone was doing it right, they'd just pull up your previous posting history and mod you back to the stone age anyway...
Really, why? I always thought the moderation was on a per-post basis, not per user. If anyone was doing it right, they'd mod the individual post up in a way they believe is appropriate or ignore it and move on.
As a side note, I find it ironic that you have "Support the EFF" in your sig and suggest that modding someone to hell is the right way to do things.
Has anyone ever used it and engaged in an interesting conversation with a person who became a regular point of contact? Or is it all just penises and overweight bald guys?
Work out. A lot. Throughout middle school and high school, I was a huge geek (and dressed like one)...but I was also huge. In high school, at only 5'6", I weighed around 200 pounds, and could lift what the varsity football team lifted in the weightroom (and, in some cases, even more.)
I was a dork, but no one dared fuck with me. A good thing, too...I had no idea how to fight:p
Sometimes working out can have the opposite effect. I was quiet, tall and muscular in school and was attacked a lot because of it, the bullies figured I'd be a fun challenge. It wasn't until I literally threw the biggest one over one desk and into another that I was left alone.
I've never been in a fight since and I hope I never am again but I don't regret my actions in those moments. And honestly, I think if you're getting beat up for no good reason (i.e. didn't instigate) and you're going to get in trouble anyway finish the fight and get suspended for a few days, life is much easier after you get back.

Unfortunately humans are not rational beings. Especially women.
Of course women aren't rational, why else would they live with men? ;)

what doesn't matter in the present may matter to the future.
I've heard similar arguments for ripping media and shortening copyright but they were never so elegantly simple.
Why am I picturing something that resembles an Etch-a-Sketch?
The resemblance ends when you try to plug an Etch-a-Sketch into the wall. Apparently running a current through one is not a good idea...

Eudora had this 10 years ago (then called 'MoodWatch'). Good to see Microsoft keeping up...
WARNING: Outlook has detected dangerously high levels of sarcasm in your post ...
Oh, a sarcasm detector, that's a real useful invention.
Locutus Notes was even worse. It assimilated all my documents then put my computer to sleep.
Regarding the reload issue, one of my peeves in "realistic shooters" is when you reload your gun, you don't loose the ammo in the magazine.
If you loosed the ammo in the magazine, the ammo would fall out!
I like to loose my ammo via the barrel.
"Owing to the rarity of these monsters, I think it is unlikely that this new record will be broken any time soon.""
Owing to the size of the universe, I think it is likely that this new record will be broken sometime soon.
Two theories, now let's sit back and see who's right!
Science would be a lot more fun if scientists solved disputes with death matches.

Cash?!

Ever seen a woman wear makeup...?
Perhaps not the best example. If a woman wears makeup properly it will only accent or showcase what's already there.
I'd equate this to a woman stuffing her bra: it looks good if you don't look too close.
Bah, I don't even read the posts I write!
I don't read the posts you write either.
As far as green energy goes, you don't get much more efficient than burning a chunk of wood for heat or light.
Greatest rootkit delivery system EVER!
If you weren't worried about copyright infringement you could remix Sony's rootkit delivery system as well. ;)
To hell with that how's the popcorn setting?
This, folks, is real genius.
And they'll still charge us $3 a gallon for it.
Haha I wish.

Who says it can't be both?
Trying to start a genital origami club eh?
yes, but bullies are too stupid to learn better.
That's kinda've the point.
That's the part I don't understand, since it appears the ones getting bullied may also be incapable of learning better.
You both completely failed at learning jack, and resorted to the threat of violence. NERD FAIL.
Learn social skills. THAT'S the lesson. They aren't hard and a handful of social cues makes all the difference.
Wouldn't this also apply to the bullies?

Is it that obvious? I mean, I try to be a good person, but I didn't know how well it came across. Thanks for believing I'm not a lawyer.
Always a pleasure. If you'd like me to doubt you in other endeavors as well please let me know!
