Chain fast food (McDs, Burger King, etc.) is not served in styrofoam anymore. However, many, many small delis and shops use styrofoam packaging, like the deli in my office building. The take out at my alma mater's dining halls uses styrofoam packaging. That alone is thousands of meals a day with a styrofoam box and cup.
I paid $75 for Sonic the Hedgehog, but I also paid $75 for Railroad Tyocoon 3. I am damn sure that RRT took an order of magnitude more money to develop, and this is only going to continue.
What makes you so sure? I haven't played 3 yet, but if 1 and 2 are any measure, I don't see why it would take much, if any, more to develop than Sonic. In fact, since I have never developed on the Genesis, I don't think I am qualified to compare the two.
That's like saying you are only religous until you want to do something that isn't allowed.
Maybe you haven't read the news in the past 5 years, but this is how a lot of people in the US act, even within the church. Just because you say you believe in something doesn't mean you actually do.
Agree with other posters that Outlook Web will work on Mozilla/Firefox. I don't use any of the advanced features, but for checking/sending email I have had no problems.
This won't stop until spammers start getting locked up for years
I don't think jail time is warranted for spam offenses, especially several years worth. Why don't we keep jails open for the real criminals. Sizeable and enforceable fines will be more than enough to stop the spam that we can legally stop. The rest of it (from China, etc.) will need another solution.
Did you ever play Carmageddon? The point was to destroy the other racers. Hitting peds just earned you extra cash. If you spent all your time hitting peds, you wouldn't win the race.
Add to this that the rerelease is in a foreign language, with subtitles (which is usually the kiss of death for theatrical showings)...
Maybe, except the most popular film in theatres at this time is not in English. The Passion of the Christ is in Aramaic and Latin, with subtitles. Add to that the successes of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and Life is Beautiful and you begin to see the "subtitles die at the box" mantra fade away.
Actually, the best IM system there was (yes, was), ICQ, did this, to some extent. You could assign various states to different people on your list. You could be invisible to just one, or many people, you could be invisible to the world, but still visible to one, or many people. You could also be away/dnd/etc. on a person by person basis. These features still exist within ICQ, afaik, but the spam and poor ad-ridden software has kept me from using it for many years. Also, pretty much everyone I had on my ICQ list also used AIM, and people who were new to the Internet were only signing up to AIM. That made running ICQ redundant, not to mention that it hogged resources. I also liked that messages didn't 'pop-up' on ICQ.. they sat in the tray until I wanted to read them. And none of that goddamn blinking status bar shit (although they do use that now, iirc). You could also make users 'floating', so that if they messaged you, an indicator would be on top of all applications.
I guess I should point out that I've never used MSN. I have also not used Yahoo's messenger. They may have these some of these features as well.
Everything from your NYC Metrocards, to the discount cards you get at the local grocery store. Everything from your Email accounts, to your cell phone habits. I didn't believe it until he proved it.
He was able to take someones first and last name, approximate age, and in return give me their home address, childrens names, home mortgage amount, bank used, cell number, parents address, university, major, where he went on vacation, how long he was gone, spending habits, etc. etc. It was scary stuff. Scary.
If you buy your metrocard with cash, there's no way to track you. Also, you say you didn't believe it until he proved it, and then list items which are unrelated to what you claim he proved.
The wording is slightly incorrect, but his point is correct. After an exploit is released, the only way to be certain that you aren't currently cracked is to reinstall. It guarantees that if you were the victim of an exploit, you aren't anymore.
The difference between OGG and MP3 is not the same as the examples you mention. In going from audio tape to CD, or VHS to DVD, the difference in quality and features was HUGE! That was the reason DVDs, and to some extent CDs, caught on so fast. The difference between MP3 and OGG is currently almost non-noticeable.
I would imagine that the actual hangar is not much more complicated than that. The whole system, the hangar and equipment needed to service the aircraft, has been developed to be easily transported. I know that the B-2 does require specialized equipment to service the stealth material, and that was the main reason it was always returned to Missouri. Perhaps this equipment was not easily transported before this project took place.
Ha. Considering GTA1 is many years old, and also had a 'time warped' expansion (London in the 1960s), it looks like they've already taken "a viable product [and] beat it into the ground so that no one gives a rip anymore." And it still made a boat of money. Interesting indeed.
The use of the wood flute in movies is so overused and unoriginal that it is no longer funny.
And the use of CGI in movies is so overused and unoriginal that it is no longer funny.
The instrument is a tool of the musician and composer. If someone happens to use that tool in Titanic and a hundred other movies, should that preclude everyone else from using the tool? I'm not defending the copying of other people's works or styles, but we have to remember that everyone has access to the same set of tools, and it's not which tools you use, but how you use them.
I've seen so many different things on the elevator buttons. What everyone is failing to consider is that there are different models and makes of elevator! Hitting the door close button in Elevator A may do nothing, but in Elevator B, it may work. What people are also failing to consider is that the door close button is simply broken. That is not the type of error that is likely to be fixed.
dictionary.com's spell checker is annoying. when you've spelled a word wrong, it will pop up alternatives, but those alternatives may not necessarily be in the dictionary! you'd think they would be able to cross-check..
FISA has many of the same powers as the PATRIOT act, with one exception. FISA set up a secret court to hold hearings for warrants, etc., when national security is involved. The PATRIOT act, in many cases, does not require such judicial oversight.
They now have movable hangers for deployment closer to the theater.
From this page:
A new transportable hangar system has been developed which will allow the B-2 to be deployed to forward locations overseas. The hangars are 126ft long, 250ft wide and 55ft high. The first of these hangars has been erected on Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean. Prior to this development, B-2s have had to return to Whiteman AFB after missions, for maintenance of the aircrafts' stealth features.

iirc, 40K is way too much to be eligible for Section 8. I seem to recall a segment on WNYC that mentioned 23K.

What sort of fudged up consumer (I won't use the word citizen for such as you) anyway?
That's about as insightful as an Ann Coulter rant.
Even if all your opponents had finished? Wow. I tried a few times to kill all the peds but always came a few short.

What a joke. I doubt you heard a word Dean said that wasn't filtered by the press. Try watching C-SPAN instead of CNN.
