Right. That makes sense. Because it will totally be possible for smaller companies to send legitimate cease and desist orders when they have to pay the other (larger) companies high priced lawyers after they lose.
Oh wait, this is slashdot, thinking things through is not allowed. APPLE IS EVIL, ZERG RUSH KEKEKE
Yes. Everything must have a category. Nature doesn't create categories becuase it doesn't seem to need to understand itself. As humans, we need to format data about the world in ways we can understand. Categorization is part of this.
You can let things be all you want, I'd prefer striving to make things better.
um, when they first 'discovered radioation' they put it in everything. You could buy radiated water that was presented as a cure-all. We didnt just put it in our food... we put it in our medicine.
oh, heh, my mistake. I just read the 'names' at the end of the filenames. Oh, and Ive also noticed a lot of the TV shows I get are from Canada. I wonder why.
Where are you getting your TV rips? I get almost every show off my college's network within a few hours and they are always high quality. Way better than I get with actually watching the TV. They are also edited really well. I never even see the start of commercials and nothing is ever cut off. The audio is also always synced perfectly.
I just checked the filenames and I'm getting my rips from xvid, lol and loki. I don't know about other rippers, but for TV, these guys always have HD quality perfect rips. In the case of Stargate Atlantis, I got HD quality perfect rips five episodes ahead of schedule. (I was finished with the season more than a month in advance)
I didn't find a list of the schools in TFA, but mine is usually included in these lists (it was last time). I can tell you that the wireless provided on my campus requires a username and password given to you by the school. This is also true for the physical jacks inside the dorm rooms, for logging onto the public computers, and for VPNing from home.
Also, our hub is fairly fancy. We have a forum for requests as well as a wiki for new releases. Basically, it rocks. If it's on the internet, we can get it within a few hours. There was an article in our school paper about how the adminstration turns a blind eye becuase they enjoy reaping the benefits just like the students.
This is absolutely true. I'd like to think of myself as an agressive/smart driver as well. They tell you speeding doesn't get you there faster... but you have to wonder why you're always there first. Anyone who has ever left home at 4am and done 115MPH to turn a 25 minute drive into a 11 minute drive can attest to that. I 3 empty freeways.
For me the trick is leaving just enough space in front of my car in heavy traffic, enough that I can hit the accelerator and zip in front of somebody, but small enough that people don't abuse it and get in front of me.

All those Brick and Mortar security measures are to make sure that you are, indeed, a paying customer. Since he already claimed to be a paying customer, those aren't applicable to the situation.
Basically, Brick and Mortar security measures end at the door. (or parking lot if you want to get picky)
Girls like pretty things, boys like to get things done. It's always been that simple to me.
Oh and no, penmanship is no longer taught in school. Even in my mechanical engineering drawing course lettering was only taught for one day and then dismissed since "It's all done on the computer anyway"
You picked a game over a year old that wasn't a good judge of current hardware requirements WHEN IT CAME OUT. Im also sure you didnt actually attempt playing WoW on a GEForce2. My 2.8 gigahertz ATI Radeon 9700 Pro had trouble with it. If you want to look at 'current hardware requierments' look at FEAR or Battlefield2 or heck, even Quake4. That being said, I just bought myself a GeFroce 7800GT for $359 and got a free motherboard with it. Good deal for me.
But if you want to know who the crazies are, it is possible to buy two DUAL GEForce something or other cards for 800 each. So $1600 for the 'graphics card' alone.
Im a bit of a cooking newb but college food has made me get really into it. I went to the grocery store to get actual basic foodstuffs (Im getting tired of boxes: boil water, throw in pot, "enjoy") and they were surprisingly scarce. Everything at the store is in boxes and bags of already-made or just-add-heat sort of things. It was a wee bit disheartening.
P.S. Anyone know a good AND easy recipe for Hollandaise sauce? Im about ready to give up on my eggs benedict dream.
No, they didnt say anything about the 'decade of 2010', the article said 'the 2010s'. If someone said it happened 'back in the 50s', would you assume it happened in 1941???
Um, how often are siblings exactly the same though? This "we had the same parents so we had the same life" thing makes no sense. My sister's led quite a different life from me even excluding the fact that I'm an introverted geek and shes a Miss Popularity dancing queen.
NO, they are not specialty LPs. I have Bad Religion's The Empire Strikes First which was recorded in 2004 and definately not 'specialty' music. Oh, and I have some radiohead stuff as well as an offspring album. I dont think these are specialty bands really. I'd even go so far to say radiohead and offspring are fairly mainstream. Vinyl is still pressed today for most even semi-popular bands.
A lot of the companies have free calling within the company. For instance, my best friend and I both have sprint. So it costs nothing for us to talk to each other as much as we want for as long as we want.
Also, if you're calling someone a lot. You probably like them, and dont want them to get charged a lot to talk to you.
Yeah, kids watch cable too, but kids are supposed to have these things called 'parents' too. It is the parents responsibility to decide what thier children should and shouldnt be able to see and it is thier responsibility to carry that out, our taxes should not be spent on programs and enforcement of laws that abridge the flow of information. Seriously, paying to NOT get information? Thats entirely backwards.
I think something is evil once it starts to break those rules maliciously, knowingly, and consistantly. Otherwise I think we'd all have to be considered evil.
I 3 my LPs becuase they are cheaper than CDs =)... unless of course you want some floyd... then... whoa. Otherwise most LPs are 5-10 bucks. And Ive gotten quite a few for $1.
First off, your wrong. Language is meant to convey ideas concisely and efficiently (which a painting is not), so it helps if we all follow the same rules.
Secondly, if a painting is hung crookedly, it should be fixed dammit!

If you really want the most for your entertainment dollar: masterbate.
Your counter-examples of cheaper games aren't even in the same genre or platform!
