I've spent hours following the instructions on that site over and over again. One might learn a lot about how the whole system is put together, but not much emphasis is put on actually reading code or looking at the kernel.
exactly. they don't pull any punches when it comes to violence, and thus are more free to address important aspects of heroism (see the Rurouni Kenshin OVA or Trigun, for example) that are never mentioned in American cartoons. some of the first non-indigenous settlers in North America were persecuted in Europe for being too prudish, and somehow the American censors inherited this squeamish attitude towards sex and violence and have only contributed towards the overall cultural denial of what it took to create this country. and let's not forget the superior voice acting. Japanese actors' dynamic range and expressiveness are on a completely different level- just listen to Shinji shriek in Evangelion...
Any serious Catholic - in fact, almost any serious Christian - would tell you that that film was extremely offensive.
that's a pretty huge generalization to make. my parents are really hardcore Catholics, and they loved Dogma for being so pro-religion and anti-dogma. but if you really meant "serious" as to mean "so-blindly-fanatic-that-they-no-longer-have-a-sen se-of-humor-about-anything,", then yes, i agree with you that they'd see it as offensive
and i'm sorry, but the stunts are just outrageous!!! flying? jumping 20 feet in the air?
not outrageous at all. you have no idea what real martial arts practitioners are capable of these days. There really are people who can jump 20 feet in the air and run as fast as cars. I have a friend who was lucky enough to visit a group of ninjas in Japan when he was 7 years old. (He was blindfolded when he was taken there for reasons of secrecy.) He saw one jump about 5 times his height. And I've seen a video of a Shaolin monk doing a cane form- it looked like he was doing it at "normal" speeds, until the commentator said, "this is a recording in slow motion." Which is why, upon seeing people jumping and flying in CTHD, I thought the portrayal of the real-life physics was simply too slow.
I used to work in the Radiology department of a hospital in Cleveland, and from what I saw of MS Exchange running on NT Server in one year, all three of the above happened. Adding anti-virus capability was a nightmare.
oh, please. How on earth can you compare somebody who's trying to eliminate unnecessary suffering to a country that is trying to eliminate an entire race of people?

This has to be the one reason I currently have to see this movie. It was choreographed by Donnie Yen, son of Chinese wushu master Bow Sim Mark.
