No mention of Portal/Portal II?
Both great games.
As a programmer, I would have to say that TFA doesn't really represent me. I think I have spent far more time playing Halo 3/ODST/Reach and Black Ops than any of the games mentioned.
How is it a scientific reason when there is no evidence or statistics to back it up.
I hate it when people just tack on the word scientific to an argument.
I'm not sure about you, but I don't spell "you're" as "your'e". So yeah, using [sic] correctly does make me a total retard, what then does that make you?
As a photon's energy is reduced, it becomes lower in frequency, so it appears to be red shifted. Uh, no.
Redshift is a relativistic phenomenon, since the source is moving away from the observer, the wavelength increases.

Of course, your'e [sic] perfectly free to believe whatever you want.
I believe that a country which uses due process in their legal systems require two things to be proven, actus reus (the guilty act) and some form of mens rea (the guilty mind) what people are proposing is convicting a person with only half of this proven. In our current legal system there is no way this could happen.
Well, the SXRD is not really considered an LCD rear projection TV. The display is LCOS, liquid crystal on silicon. SXRD stands for Silixon cryXtal Reflective Display. The main point is that the image is reflective (similar to a DLP) rather than transmissive (LCD rear projection).
I think most people are over reacting. Locks are not in place to keep out someone who wants to come in, as previously mentioned, a lockcutter or hammer will always work. Rather, these locks are meant to keep the majority of people out, people who, upon finding a locked door, will go away.
Ok, one thing no one is mentioning is colour spectrum each are able to reproduce. Plasmas can reproduce around 94 percent of what we are able to see, CRT's and most LCD's are still around only 74 percent. For the sake of arguments, I will include DLP's, which are 105 percent.
In terms of longevity, sure, plasma's have a HALF-LIFE of 60,000 hours. but after 10 years, you will have lost around 15 percent brigtness, and for me,thats time to replace.
Plasmas are not dying out,or being replaced. There are only 5 factories that manufature plasma's, and a lot more for LCD's. Market rumours (started by the much more numerous LCD makers) are trying to kill this technology. Plasma's have a faster response time, and more colour recreation and are 30 percent cheaper to buy. Those alone will keep it aroun for a while
please refer to any of the past OLPC post. These are not countries in extreme poverty. They have an infrastructure in plance. The projects are designed to break the cycle of poverty. Unless you teach these people to survive in a 21st century workplace, you can give them all the aid you want and it will not help. I repeat, BREAK THE CYCLE OF POVERTY, and the programs are not designed for countries with extreme poverty, but ones with an infrastructure in place
religion has a purpose. I am assuming you are at least a middle aged man. What if you were 70+, living off a small pension with hardly any contact from friends or relatives? Now, I am not religious, but I think in the future I will have a need for it, to give me something to look forward to, a life after my pitiful 9-5 life I have now. As people in the prime of our lives, there is no reason to need an after life, but after you have past the prime of you life, what motivation is there? If you knew that nothing else existed, why would you still contribute to society?
Well, no matter what this guy is saying, if it helps people great. I personally think that it is all just the power of suggestion but does that make it any less valid? Now, I am not saying stop takin your meds, but if your open to suggestion....but wait...not that i said that it probbly wont work anymore.....sorry
Raising children with so few social skills that they express their anti-religious bigotry on public fora at every opportunity is child abuse
It is called a debate. In debates people take opposing sides and are allowed to express their opinions about the topic being discussed ( in this case, religion). Children are not abused when their parents teach them beliefs. As anecdotal evidence, I was raised religious, but I believe in the scientific method and evolution. I have grown away from my religious roots, and can argue for or against religion, yet I prefer against. Claiming that teaching religion is child abuse is childish and extremely bias. Do the community a favour and learn how to debate without sinking to name calling.
Flamebait? read the post please mods. He is making a good point which everyone else has over looked. Sure, we at/. know the line is VOIP, but does anyone else in the house? Its not about evil companies that hate technological progress ( i know, there scared of losing profit) trying to shut down VOIP. The issue is that there is no good 911 service for VOIP, and thats a risk. I am sure this is a little bit more dangerous than our-rights-online, its our life (or our kids, wife ect). If I had mod points, I would mod this up. Insightful. the guy is providing a good point of view about the serious flaw in the technology.

Really? The online co-op doesn't offer replayability? Want to recommend something that is 'more replayable', champ.

Looking at the Torrent list, I can't see an x86-64 version of Mandriva One. ( Free has it though). Any ideas on where to find it?
If it is twice as dense as lead, what is it made of?
uh, i just spoke with a doc at the beginning of june, and I will have my MRI before school starts back up again, so no we don't have to wait 6 months.

I believe in Mens rea

The sticker there has the magnet inside of it. try and peel it off next time and have a look at the bottom of it.
Troll? he presented the other side of the arguement...wish i had some mod pts
