  1. Zager and Evans - In the Year 2525 on In the Year 2020 · · Score: 1

    In the year 2525 If man is still alive. If woman can survive, they may find. In the year 3535 Ain't gonna need to tell the truth, tell no lies. Everything you think, do and say, is in the pill you took today. In the year 4545 Ain't gonna need your teeth, won't need your eyes. You won't find a thing to chew. Nobody's gonna look at you. In the year 5555 Your arms hanging limp at your sides. Your legs got nothing to do. Some machine doing that for you. In the year 6565 Ain't gonna need no husband, won't need no wife. You'll pick your son, pick your daughter too. From the bottom of a long glass tube. Whoa-oh In the year 7510 If God's a-comin, he oughta make it by then. Maybe he'll look around himself and say. Guess it's time for the judgment day. In the year 8510 God is gonna shake his mighty head. He'll either say.I'm pleased where man has been. Or tear it down and start again. Whoa-oh In the year 9595 I'm kinda wonderin if man is gonna be alive. He's taken everything this old Earth can give. And he ain't put back nothing.Whoa-oh Now it's been ten thousand years Man has cried a billion tears. For what he never knew, now man's reign is through. But through eternal night. The twinkling of starlight. So very far away. Maybe it's only yesterday. In the year 2525 If man is still alive. If woman can survive, they may find.

    Or you could be considered a better target than your neighbors. One would reason that someone who went through the trouble of attempting to secure his network is more likely to have something of value he's trying to protect. If you could have the contents of either one, do you go for the guy carrying the leather briefcase, or the guy with the metal one handcuffed to his wrist?

  13. Sound quality on What's Up With Computer Audio? · · Score: 2, Informative

    If you need slightly better performance and advanced feature support like EAX then the creative cards are the way to go, but if musical fidelity is your priority there are far better options. The Chaintech AV710 is 25$ retail and outperforms the audigy 2 zs with its superior Wolfson DAC. If two channel gaming is fine for you (headphones give great spacial relation anyway) then you will love this card. The next step (quality and feature wise) are the E-MU line. This Creative owned company produces the 0404, a $100 card that most audiophiles agree will output sound like a 500$+ cd player. The $200 1212 option is said to perform as well as any sub $1000 cd player/DAC.

  14. Re:Meh on Stress Costs U.S. $300 Billion a Year · · Score: 1

    To clarify: The US and similar workaholic countries are the ones that are disfunctional and are responsible for Frances poor economic state. Why should they work harder? It is the norm in many countries to work as hard as humanly possible and people are killing themselves doing it.

  15. Re:Meh on Stress Costs U.S. $300 Billion a Year · · Score: 1

    But France only has a negative GDP because countries like the US work so hard to make their produce valuable. People seem willing to do anything it takes for 20-50 years hoping that retirement for the remaining 20-50 will make it all worthwhile.

    If for some reason you DID load SP2 on a spyware infested computer and it is no longer booting just boot with the "Last known good configuration" option in the F8 boot menu. Uninstall SP2 (you may have to use XP system restore before doing this), remove spyware, reinstall SP2.

  19. Multiplayer disappointment on DOOM 3 Final Video Trailer Released · · Score: 2, Insightful

    The other aspect of DoomIII that disappoints is multiplayer. Half-Life 2 is pretty much guaranteed to be first-rate, whereas DoomIII will be lucky to be decent, in the long-run at least. Thats what makes it hard to buy this. Without great multiplayer you can only play a game for so long.

  20. Re:Summary . . . on Official Doom 3 Benchmarks Released · · Score: 1

    DoomIII wont be your only use for the video card though, will it? Half-Life 2 should be a bit ATI biased, and many games out now perform better on the ATI cards. Check HardOCPs other reviews. But regardless of which card you buy, all do well overall.
