My bank gives me a checking account + Visa debit card for $5 a month, the credit union where I do hold a savings account gives you a checking account + ATM (eg, not Visa nor Master Card debit cards) card for $8 a month (haven't checked their competitors, though).
If you want to see it that bad, go by yourself. Enjoy the crowds of obnoxious people, screaming babies, filthy floors, cramped seats, blocked views, terrible traffic, and insufficient parking. Yeah, nobody wants to go to the cinema anymore because of crappy cam torrents.
Here in Puerto Rico I paid $3.75 (matinee) the second day of release, the theather was almost empty with plenty of parking (it's in a shopping center), and nice and clean. Nowhere near the experience you describe.
I would not be surprised if they achieved that mileage by continuously driving the car at a specific speed, on a level and perfect road, with the A/C turned off and the windows closed, and not just until running out of power, but until the car stopped moving due to inertia.
I like to think that those people in that galaxy far, far away speak another language, and Lucas just translated from their language the (probably correct) term to english as "laser".
I usually start the DVD playback with the TV turned off, go do something else, and like 10 or 20 minutes later when I turn on the TV it's either playing the movie or on the main menu.
Something else I hate is being forced to watch the whole movie every time I move from one menu to another.
I was planning on purchasing the Shirley Temple collection, and started by getting 3 movies (I am located in Puerto Rico, so I guess it's in the USA region), back at Wall Mart. In all 3 of them you have to watch a lot of crap you can't skip, including some propaganda that says something similar to: "You would not steal a purse..."
I cancelled my plans of purchasing the whole collection after watching just the first movie.
In some cases it may not be practical. For example, in Thief II, the mission you play on the demo is not the first one you play on the full game, also the mission in the demo is not identical to it's equivalent on the full game.
When I try and open the link on TFS, I get an error to the effect that it can't be displayed.
Then I did a search for "php v6", and clicked on sort in descending order, and the first entry is dated to 21 december 2015.
Because us grown-ups realize that this stuff isn't gonna get made for free. Thousands of actual people feed their with this money. Pretending it's alright to take the fruits of their labor and give them nothing in return is simply criminal.
I agree with you, but not if it's DRM'd.
Also, for example, I can just pause YouTube videos until it is fully cached and seamlessly watch it, but not so on Hulu. Hulu will pause every few seconds, may be minutes, to cache additional data, and then continue, making the movie virtually unwatchable.
I would pay for recent content (eg, House, Bones, etc.), but not for old content (eg, Bewitched, My dream of Jeny, etc.)
No one is gonna pay for the user submitted videos.
Not all, there are some user submitted videos that are actually worth paying for, be it in YouTube or other similar services. (In this context user submitted means "not Hollywood submitted", right?).
But I still agree with you about most of them, I would not pay a cent to watch some little kid's birthday:-)
Or, if his machine can't be turned on/off from the outside like mine (Dell Latitude C600), I would say loose the lid, get an external mouse and monitor, and use as a desktop.
Would it be possible to configure the selector to access memory installed on the chip or memory installed on the motherboard? That would allow the 32bit CPU to address 8GB?
Unless the troll has a static IP, this does not look like the the best way to go. May be letting the trolls themselves and new users see the troll posts will prevent the trolls from learning that they have been banned by creating a new account.
Or may be show troll posts only to users with "neutral" or "negative" karma, or with fewer than x posts, or an account created less than some y time ago, etc.
I have just tested their service back at speedtest.net and got: DL 1023kb/s, 559kb/s, and 137ms latency, to their Miami, FL. server.
At some other time it tested like 1500kb/s download, and I have seen, according to Linux, downloads of up to 200KB/s (if only for a few seconds).
Pinging Google gives the following, all in ms: 102.00, 99.5, 102.00, 138.00, 108.00
The modem they gave is an Axesstel, CDMA 1xEV-DO Rev A, MV400i series, MV430LITE.
The only problem is that sometimes the connection to the outside sort of freezes (all machines connected to it, as it has 4 ethernet ports, can connect to each other just fine, however), and I have to turn the modem off and back on to fixit. Their technical support is, as usual, useless when asked about this particular.
I am using Ubuntu 8.04. I have tested this with Windows 200 proffeional, and the modem seems to work reliably, but I have not tested it long enough to be completely sure.
You decided that next time, you'll still use the product but you won't pay for it. As opposed to, I dunno, using somebody else's product?
Some people buy the software, but also dowload a cracked copy to avoid DRM inconveniences, like for example, the no-cd crack. May be he meant something similar, as in buy windows licence, use corporate version to avoid activation problems.

Need they be worried?

I wish we were given the option to require variable declaration...

I guess anybody is a supermodel compared to this.
