Yes, I really think Dave can sing, and I don't see what my delusional tendencies have to do with it. He's got that killer growl in his voice that's just perfect for that kind of music. Could you imagine Megadeth without Dave Mustaine?
However, if you want to hear exceptional vocals in metal, you have to listen to some Nevermore. Just incredible.
I am so sick of the metal that's come out the last few years with these dorks trying to sound tough by growling all the time and instead sound like they're having a tough time taking a shit. I detest vomit metal.
The guy in the GH version sounds like a pussy. It's embarrassing to hear the way he does the end of the song. I have to explain to people who aren't familiar with Megadeth that it is just a cover version and the original is far better.
After suffering through that horrible vocalist, way out of his vocal range, that they used to do the Megadeth covers on GH and GH2, I refuse to buy GH3 if it once again is not the ORIGINAL SONGS by the ORIGINAL ARTIST.
God, it's fucking horrible the way that poser vomits the end of Symphony of Destruction. If it ain't got Dave Mustaine's voice, I don't want anything to do with it.
If I'm paying 3 times the cost of a music CD for the game, I damn well expect real versions of the songs on it. Cheap ass bastards.
What on earth is going to be in the kit that is worth $40,000?? That's insane. You can get a Programmable Logic Controller (Omron or Allen Bradley), several industrial grade servomotors or stepper motors, the motor drive unit, and a pile of sensors/buttons/actuators/etc off ebay for around $2000.
In 1991 I worked for a company that did industrial automation fabrication and build this relatively large (Around 40x30 feet of machinery) automated cutting/welding system with two MIG welders (One mounted on a track to adjust for different sizes, anywhere from 40 feet to 4 feet and accurate to 1/100th of an inch), and all the raw material handlers to feed parts into the welders, and we had MAYBE $50,000 in hardware costs.
Even a hard core GE/Fanuc industrial grade CNC control head is no more than $25,000. This thing had better have the capabilities of R2D2.
Sounds like a complete ripoff.
And every automation control system I've used, PLC or CNC, has had the development software free with the unit. Only thing you'd have to pay for was the programming console, which has since been reduced to software that runs on Windows, so needing only a serial or USB cable between the two.
Too bad VS2005 is flaky as hell under Vista. No way we're upgrading until at least SP1, and SP2 for VS2005, since SP1 for VS2005 will not have the needed tweaks to make it run right on Vista. And give us a real TFS merge tool while we're at it, the current one is a piece of trash that won't merge XML files. We just blew the last two days writing our own XML merging tool since the TFS merger could find no pattern beyond "They're both completely different".
Oh just shoot me instead. Notes/Domino/whatever-it's-called-this-week is a horrible abortion that should have been chucked in the ditch years ago. I refuse to work for any company that uses it.
All true except the.NET part. That really seems to be knocking out Java installations all over the place. Java was a great dream when it started, but it lost focus after a while. I've seen quite a few companies either abandon Java or relegate it to 'legacy' code bases, and do all new development in.NET. Microsoft actually did a very good job with.NET.
Dude, it's an Apple ][, not an Apple//. Oh wait, you're one of those Apple//e guys. What a n00b. The Apple ][ and ][+ were the shit, the//e was teh ghey!
I get your point entirely. I do understand the math. However, throwing a dollar or two away once a week in return for a teeny-tiny chance to no longer have to worry about bills and retirement and such avoidable-in-a-perfect-society things, to me is more than worth it. Even for the little high you get when you dream "what if" as you check the powerball numbers. (And just like other addictive things, you pay for the high with a down after the effect wears off [fuck, I didn't win, dammit])

You still use CGI? Get out of the early 1990s man! My god! How primitive can you get? Sucky sucky lame! Even with FastCGI it's still a shitty hack.
Anybody tried it with Links2? It supports a limited amount of Javascript.
What's weird is in a lot of the pre-release versions, stuff tended to work better in Firefox than in IE 6. I found that very surprising, but cool. :)

Snc whn is abrvtn an rtfrm?
Sorry no mod points.
What, subtract a point for each win? That sounds like a strange game.
Oh what the fuck are you going the fuck on about anyway, you fucker. It's not like you can fucken say fuck any other fucking place. Fuck!

Do I sound really shocked by the price? I am!
Why would having .NET dependencies make it so it can't be ported? Heard of Mono? (Open Source .NET Framework that runs on Linux)

They've changes the name. The movie will now be known as "Dogs and Katz"
Ta Dum!

Vista's going to hit the market and sink, just like the PS3.
It's a big scam anyway, that most people do not realize:
Do you really need a Driver's License?
Although playing Trade Wars 2002 feels a bit strange here in 2006. Where is my damn Taurean Mule already?
Looks nice and slashdotted at this point. Made a copy of it here
Get back to RST, Randal.
Not true at all, I saw Draco hanging out with Harry Potter just the other day.
Dude, it's an Apple ][, not an Apple //. Oh wait, you're one of those Apple //e guys. What a n00b. The Apple ][ and ][+ were the shit, the //e was teh ghey!

Please explain to dumb American what means "wheelie bin"?
How do you store gasoline for long periods of time? Can it be done?
