I think maybe he ment that they're hard on coral. They (spiders) are predators, and I remember reading somewhere that coral is an animal. Maybe it's related to fungus, which is also an animal I think. Spiders scare me.
Fnord.
Which one is that, and do you have open slots? I'm tired of logging onto unknown servers and being booted for not having the time to slough through 8 pages or more of willy-nilly rules, so I commit the heinous crime of resting in chainmail (sigh).
I just wish to find a nice place to play and have fun, without too many strange rules (I can even live with the rules, just let me read them once and be done with it), and a good player-base.
I miss my times at the server I hung out in a year back. It went down.
Being Norwegian I was quite interested in this, as were the Norwegian media. The largest Norwegian television-channel, NRK, interviewed a biographer of Munch's. When asked what he supposed Munch would have thought of this theft he replied something like (and I'm translating off the top of my head here):
If it were on one of Munch's better day's he'd probably say something like: "The Geniality of the artwork lies in the Thought and the Act, not in the Result. The Thought caused the Act, and I did it. The work itself is of little importance." But, Munch was a temperemental man so he might have been livid.
And it wasn't exactly the only example of The Scream ("Skrik"), as there are several other versions made by Munch around the world. Still, I wish the thieves all possible good luck in selling the best-known image in the western world without being found out:)
I was wondering why the largest Norwegian newspaper was running a story on the (supposedly) imminent release of Elite4, as the pages haven't changed a bit since they released that dog-demo (about 2002?)
Now I see the same story, with the same lack of content on slashdot. What's up, nothing happening out there?
I think I'll go back to playing with worldwind or celestia (google them, you lazy person), and stop hoping for a remake of a once-great-but-sadly-mothballed-franchise.
And will you all stop using worldwind so I can get the server to respond!?
NASA also announced today that Michael Ryschkewitsch, director of the Applied Engineering and Technology Directorate at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, would lead the Genesis Mishap Investigation Board (MIB) in an effort to determine the exact cause of the disaster. The group is due to report back in mid-November.
So, the Genesis MIBs have it, then. Very reassuring.
Once they were protecting the Earth from the scum of the Universe, now they're protecting the sun from the dust of the Utah desert:)
Preliminary research on the materials recovered from the probe lead scientists to conclude that the sun is indeed composed mainly of sand and broken glass.
Taken from Acclaim's own pages, right now (linkage):
Acclaim Entertainment is one of the world's leading developers and publishers of video games. We are proud of the brands we have made famous over the years - brands such as Mortal Kombat, Turok, All-Star Baseball and Dave Mirra's BMX - but we are not content to rest on our laurels. Our industry is evolving at an ever increasing speed and we must continually push the boundaries of technology to provide entertaining, exciting and challenging video games.
To do that, we need the best and brightest stars in our game development studios and our corporate departments. We need ideas, solutions, new innovations, strong opinions and dedication. We need YOU!
Take it to the next level - Send your resume to Acclaim!
Don't think I'll be sending in my resume after all
I think pressing the up direction is the normal way.
But I do see how a z-axis turn on the stick ("twisting the knob" is just too much of an invitation...) would be best, since the controller sort of looks like a tetris-board.
This sound to me to be most usefull when you want to disappear against a wall or something, as you'd never pull the invisibiliy-trick off if there are multiple angles you're being viewed from.
It's more like a Tolkienesque Elvish Cloak than an invisibility-garment.
Bah, wake me up when someone comes up with an Douglas Adamsesque SEP-field.
If you're the retailer, and someone wants to sell you a used game you have to factor in that this copy of the game probably won't sell. Most used games don't sell, because most in-traded games are crap. Some of them do sell, but those copies help subsidize the ones that never do.
I think:)
Could this be said to be one of the problems of open source English? As long as Java remains closed runaway verbing (yes, I verbed the noun verb), or similar processes, of java expressions are kept to a minimum.
...But, not all of us have hacked into banks, but, not all of us have hacked into banks, but all of us have pirated software or music, therefore we want to be leanient with his sentence.
If everyone does it, is it less of a crime? Isn't that a logical conclusion of democracy, that what "everyone" (or a majority of people) want is what the law should eventually recognize as right?
Do you people actually know this, or is it just kibbitzing about a possible typo?
I thought mm seemed large for chips, as I was under the impression nm was a more relevant unit.
I may just be mistaken, yet again:)

Then try out Eclipse and stop whining. If you don't like it, come back and whine some more.
And some kind of mask and breathing apparatus in case of bad breath.

Eclipse vs NetBeans?
This is a good list! Now, if I'd have googled for a business plan I'd have found this document, which has much of the same but is even neater.
I for one never knew it was that much work just setting up a business. Maybe this is why I'm better suited to being an employee :)
...the incumbent party decides what the outcome of the games are...
OK, not funny, I know, mod me down...
