Somewhat crippling ToS from the site (you must download and watch movies/TV shows before 30 days, can only watch it for 24 hours after first playing); and the kicker: $3.99 for rentals. Imo at least the charge should be half that. There is no distibution cost other than keeping the tracker/site up, and you can only watch it for a day! If I watched even 3 movies a month, it'd cost less to just go through netflix, and I could keep them as long as I wanted.
However, it is still good to see BT somewhat more in the public eye. Maybe it'll catch on and more people will realize that they're being ripped off.
25 new Blu-Ray releases and 11 HD-DVD releases in one month?
Beta was still around for 27 years. I have a feeling that the two sides will be able to co-exist for quite some time (especially with the duel-format players that are close to release).
So the question is: would you rather vote for someone who is strong on the second amendment but give you a reason to use it, or someone who is weak against the second amendment but will probably not give you a reason to use it?
Personally I think the seoncd amendment is the most "outdated" part of the constitution, because "arms" deal with technology, and the tech at the time involved mostly muskets and bayonetts (I believe the first rifle was invented some time during the Civil War). I don't think they invisioned a weapon able to mow down scores of people in under 20 seconds with a very low reload time, or a missile able to take out an entire city. The solution? I don't know. But identifying the problem is the first step.
I do find it amazing in countries like Italy or Germany where the drinking age is quite low (I think its still 14 in both countries?), theres much less of a problem with people drinking to excess than there is in America.
This just adds to the list of things that I hate about steam.
Not to mention that at EVERY major lan party event I've gone to, valve released an "update" the previous night at around 10PM. And just TRY to drop all the updated files in. Offline updating of steam doesn't work for shit.
Deer DO sleep in dens, though not underground ones. Usually small clearings in a large clump of trees (one that would obstruct the passing predator's view.
Over the past three months the republican incumbant (under investigation by the FBI/DoJ for taking a $30000 vacation given to him by foreign lobbying groups) has been robocalling everyone in the county and some outside the county with calls that are basically designed to make you hang up the second you hear their tagline, "This call is about supporting Charlie Brown" (yes that is the democrat candidate's real name:P). Charlie's campaign doesn't have robocallers, but the actual campaign workers who call were rather surprised to hear from people that they got a robocall three minutes ago claiming it to be from their campaign.
Its rather a shame that the local republican controlled newspaper made no mention of this in their so-called "bad campaigning expose".

All anyone has to do is find the watermark for, say, the movie adaptation for 1984, and add it in early in the movie/CD.
One would think a rather simple script could get autorun.ini working?

No fair! This guy's tube is shorter than mine!!

What a "shocking" story.
I noted that the hot tub was closed the first day due to the chlorine content being upped by about 15x.
Here the question becomes: Does China need US (no pun intended) more than WE need THEM?
One does wonder how one may patent a series of movements set to music :P (how many monkeys...)
Oh and that WAS a really good show.
No need for a new .xxx suffix!!!
'in.the.b.um'.
...did they find a red and white striped cap somewhere near the shore?
I do definitely plan to vote against Labor in the next election.
... now if only I didn't live in the US!

I think republicans define anyone that reads the consitution as "hard-left".
Or they could just purchase a $10 used sound blaster and use that.
Anyone else find it amazing that a news story mostly dealing with Starbucks can go back to religious zealotry so quickly?
Puritanism pure and simple. Alchohol is bad despite what is written in the bible. Too much of course is bad.
And of course the "solution" offered to underage drinking is to restrict it more, making it even more attractive to kids.

I still find it interesting that at 18 you're allowed join the military and die but you're not allowed to drink alcohol.

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED.
Yeah yeah folks, we get it; Molten Core/WoW High ping blizzard servers based on moon etc/etc.
