I realize it's abandondware, but it is the ONLY PIM that handles time zones correctly. (try setting a full day meeting in outlook then changing your time zone. Which day was that meeting?)
Well, Apple's iCal puts it on the same day you originally set it for... Example: Created all day event. Set event for "all day" (checking the option box). November 21st is the day the event was set for.
Changed timezone 2 hours. Still all day on Nov. 21st. Changed timezone 13 hours. Still all day on Nov. 21st.
Now, since you didn't give more info, is that they way you complain "everything else" does it? Or is that the way your program works, and you like it?
Which wouldn't work out if the camera was pointing at an inanimate object ("sensitive information"), or into a "private area".
Unless you want the light to be absolutely blinding, it'd be near-useless.
Remember, some normal phones have lights on them, for incoming call, charging, etc... So the people in the photo may not even realize it's a camera either.

Damn, those aren't even well disguised URLs. Didn't even use that URL spoofing trick that works in IE. Pathetic.
Metroid is NOT about the graphics, or the innovative new ways to play it... Metroid is about the story, mainly.
The philosophy behind this is really "If it isn't broken, don't fix it." The original MP engine worked wonderfully. It is visually impressive, even now, a few years later. Just add a few minor enhancements, and leave it. Concentrate most development on the multiplayer execution and the heart of every Metroid game - the story.
While not terribly challenging, in some places, much of it was incredibly entertaining. The story is good, the action is classic D&D RPG style, the mechanics are good. HK-47 is hilarious with his meatbag comments.
It's a great game in my opinion. And because of the time setting, there's much more creative licence. Anything can be sorted out in 4000 years of time.
Human cloning is scary stuff. What happens when we start to clone the "perfect" human for soldiers? Or when we clone too much that it leaves too little genetic diversity? Or worse, combining genetic manipulation with cloning, creating "super-humans", so-to-speak?
Personally I think those are questions best left to speculation, and not ones that should ever have their answers truly known by anyone.
And on OSX even running as an admin would require a password (all the sysadmin stuff is done by a system similar to sudo), and most OSX users have been cautioned (by many books, manuals, etc.) to not use their admin password in any program they don't explicitly trust.
So it's really only if they are smart enough to set up root as a accessible user account (which takes smarts), but yet are stupid enough to use it all the time, and stupid enough to run random executables. Which I don't think there are that many so smart/stupid people in that combination...
The moment we have machines that replace us completely is the moment humans are obsolete. And what happens to most obsolete hardware? You see it around a little for the next few years before it completely disappears. Personally I'd rather work than have my species cease to exist.
Although if some people ceased to exist I wouldn't be mad, mind you....
The final Longhorn ISOs will of course weigh in over a terabyte, requiring the Microsoft(R) Windows(R) Certified(R) huge holographic disc thingy that's been mentioned on Slashdot a few times.
Of course if this does happen, that 1 TB requirement will stop most casual piraters...
As with RAM, the only reason to use the HUGE sizes of CF cards is if you a) need to carry a single huge file (movies, anyone?) on one card, or b) have simply run out of space for cards.
To actually explain this, only the second point applies to RAM. If you only have 3 or 4 RAM slots, and you want an insane amount of RAM, you'll have to use the bigger chips, as opposed to the 512s or 1024s.
Then maybe a little later take a similar approach with the Hand of Thrawn cycle? Those books are set somewhere around 20 years after ROTJ, putting the original actors around the right age.

Maybe these "concerned parents" would be better off monitoring their children's internet use actively, as opposed to after-the-fact.
That's the problem with many of the young people of these days - the parents don't care enough.

You must be new here.

You think anyone who has one of these has the chance that their clothes will be ripped off?
Ok, so maybe in a stripsearch...
That first one is very probable to happen, eh?
I don't know aboot the second one though.
I can imagine the insurance company when buying the insurance...
"Do you want the satellite coverage, sir?"
I'm guessing sometime in December, although I can't back that up with any proof.
Look at the Battlestar Galactica miniseries. We got it here a few months after the States.

Well, if it comforts you, she seems to have plans to do a nude photo shoot early next year, after childbirth...
You get beer donated. ;-)
:-P
Seriously, money is overrated. Send food, send beer, and then you'll really motivate many developers.
No...
They'd just call the exterminators about once a month to kill off one mosquito. Once every three months to kill a roach.
Remember, only one at a time.
I agree completely.

1. Make more SW/ST.
2. ???
3. Profit!
But I think we all knew that one already, didn't we?
You're an evil, evil bastard.
:D
I love the way you think.
