Eh? Excuse meee? No offense, Wil, but, honestly, even when I was a child the Wes character seemed the most annoying part of Star Trek to me (well, come think, Troi's psycho babble was just as annoying).
IMHO a lame attempt of producers to appeal to young audiences. Similar to young Anakin in Star Wars I.
Again, no offense meant, Wil.
Hey! Mod person! Don't mod me off-topic when you just don't agree!
For one thing, there's a reference to "the darker side of Oz"
You should check out what he did to Alice in Wonderland.
Pretty cool (in my opinion), but also much darker (and more violent) than the original Alice in Wonderland.
I loved American McGee's Alice.
It seems everybody else hated it, but I liked the scenery and the story. Playing it I felt really in a different world.
Major West: It's still working. John Robinson: What? Major West: The hyperdrive. If we can't go around the Sun, then we go straight through it, using your hyperdrive. John Robinson: But, without a hypergate, the exit vector's random. There's no telling where we'd come out.
Only this time they hit the sun. Poor Robinsons. Source: http://imdb.com/title/tt0120738/quotes
(At least the original) Sim City was described by the developers as a toy, not a game, because you can't really win, but there are so many possibilities to play with it.
...people chatter in the background, and there is invariably some big guy who takes a popcorn break right in the middle of the movie.
But you must admit that this gives you the real cinema feeling. If there was a smell of popcorn and artificial butter it would be undistinguishable from a real cinema...
Watermarking sounds promising.
Watermarking? Sounds like something my dog also finds interesting.
Actually, most murderers are being caught while thieves, such as pickpockets are rarely being caught. According to your logic, the penalty for theft must be harder than for murder.
Last week my neighbour's brat rang my door bell then ran away. I demand at least 5 years in prison as it's not the first time he did that and I'm not the only victim.
this puts you in the "people who don't agree with me are idiots" camp
Hitler was elected in a regular election. So it must have been the right choice, no?
BTW, after his election, he made some kind of "state of emergency-laws" to protect the state against Communists (today, he would call them terrorists). These laws basically took away civil rights and gave the state more power. Does this approach sound familiar?
So true. This is a sad day for billions of people in the whole world who will be affected by this election without any possibility to take part.
Well, four more years of the rich getting richer, the middle class losing jobs, civilians all over the world and American soldiers getting killed for nothing, more hatred against Americans and less freedom in the US.
But certainly it will be four very good years for Halliburton.
Interesting question. Especially considering they have roughly the same number of processors...
But from the article I get the idea the SGI is kind of... less clustered. It seems to share its memory while on the Big Mac, each G5 computer has its "private" 4 GB of memory.

I dunno, my internet seems still pretty fast.
I guess I skip this internet2 thing and just wait for internet3.
Why do you think this is a defacemant?
It's their new business model (you insensitive clods)

Shouldn't cellphone companies be making people aware of the hazards of usage?"
Yes.
(At least the original) Sim City was described by the developers as a toy, not a game, because you can't really win, but there are so many possibilities to play with it.
Yes, I'm nitpicking. But it's true.
I don't buy no book that doesn't have "for dummies" in the title.
So I wanna preorder
- Excel Hacks: 100 Industrial-Strength Tips and Tools for dummies
- The World's 20 Greatest Unsolved Problems for dummies
But really interesting sounds No. 4:Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!
I tell you cathedral. Profane activities with holy Linux kernel will be prosecuted.
You left out Tom Bombadil.
And the liberation of the Shire.
Bahhh...
I hope it will be included in the Special Extended Edition of this post...
Would that be the European, or the African?
I don't know... aaaaahhh!
The same can be said about a certain other large country. Just thier rape of freedoms is a little less advanced, yet.
Your signature betrays you.
Don't feel too safe in little Hobbit-Country.
Look out of the window. Do you see the black van?
10,000 Monkeys did not produce Shakespeare. Instead they produced the 10 commandments?
10.000 monkeys couldn't live on the top of Mount Sinai. What would they eat? And where have the typewriters come from?
Dammit, I can't blame MS for this move.
As much as we all like MS-bashing, this action does not seem evil.
Or, is it? (Please?)
Has anybody just bought a big Itanium-cluster to run Windows Server 2003 Compute Cluster Edition on it?
BTW, is the name really "Windows Server 2003 Compute Cluster Edition"? Sounds terrible...
But you must admit that this gives you the real cinema feeling. If there was a smell of popcorn and artificial butter it would be undistinguishable from a real cinema...

I understand the logic, I merely wanted to give an example to illustrate why this logic is not valid in real life.

You will be slashdotted in no time.
Let's say ist all together: beleaguered

is this thing faster than the Big Mac?

running Linux on Itanium2 processors
But isn't Itanium kinda evil (as opposed to slashdot darlings PPC/Power and Opteron)?
While Linux is super cool? So should I like it?
