Irregardless? Reread the word syllable by syllable and tell me how many negations there are in there. I'm quite positive that what you mean is regardless. You're welcome.:)
Can't really say I'm all that surprised. The more responsible/seasoned parents out there pretty much called b.s. on this long ago and actually discipline their kids instead of medicating them.
I presume most of these diagnoses are based on kids simply being kids. They're packed with energy and ready for playtime at a moment's notice. The early years of schooling is/was geared towards training them to control that behavoir. What the heck happened? What's next? Treating restless leg syndrome?*
*Disclaimer: I know no one with this personally, nor do I know if this really, truly is a severe medical condition. I use a pillow between my legs at night if their existence is bothering me.
Your disclaimer (while appreciated) disqualifies you from being allowed a score of 5 in my opinion. I was diagnosed with ADD at 12 and I'm now 28. It is very real and can be VERY crippling even if not in ways you would expect.
Oh! By the way, have you ever thought of refactoring the names of your games? eg. AaAaAaAaA Reckless Disregard for Gravity.:) Picture a skydiver screaming the title as he falls and you know what I'm picturing!
Indie developer and member of slashdot with a reasonable ID posting about a gameplay delivery platform who also has a sense of humour and is interested in his playerbase.. okay, you've just gained my respect and I'll try to keep dejobaan on my gaming radar in the future. Thanks for posting.:)
That's simple hard disk corruption and it happens every day without you realizing it. Why do you think you have to re-download music files once in a while because they start getting skippy?:)
It actually is within Google's best interest to provide these detection tools. Only however in that if they weren't provided, Viacom et al would produce their own detection tools which inevitably would resemble some form of automated digital/analog screen/audio scraping/capture of Youtube videos, which would needlessly waste far more Google (and intermediaries) bandwidth than would be necessary with Google-provided tools.
Exactly how is my observation redundant? There are indeed people who teach their kids that tattling is wrong. Clearly whoever modded me is of that very belief.
"Tattling" is a good thing. If your kids "tattle" all they're doing is telling you what they know. What happens is based on your judgement call. Any problems that arise from "tattling" are due to you mishandling the situation. It's nobody elses' fault.
In school they call a whistleblower a tattletail. Many teachers even frown upon kids tattling on others. It's sad, it's engrained from a very young age that things that weren't seen should remain unseen.
Good laugh! The 140 character limitation isn't artificial however, I can't remember from where I read it, but there was an article somewhere talking specifically about this limitation and it said 140 characters was the most engineers could get for SMS messages because of technological limitations. 7-bit bytes was somewhere in the reasoning, something along the lines of:
Had they used 8-bit bytes, SMS would actually have a smaller limit, so they squeezed all the essential/printable characters that they could into the protocol using 7-bits.
Beyond that I can't remember though, something to do with cache/bus/bandwidth size maybe.

My theory of how this submission reads is as follows.

He was being funny, you're misspelling, respect our authority. :P

But an interesting non-article nonetheless and one I'm glad I was made aware of :P
I thought they had shut down development of Flight Simulator! Maybe an exec was a fan and wanted the next version anyway?
Bonus geek cred: Heated.
Easy, remove the fans in the tower. :)

This is news to you?
What about Brainfuck.NET? I would love to see how they pull that off!
Lest we forget everything Folding@Home has done..
Stop talking about Linus' burn-out. Why bring up pointless issues? What are you trying add to add to the conversation by saying that?

In your neck of the woods, maybe. :)
Come on! Mass Effect already covered this topic as part of it's plot.

I know, right? I've never felt the need to appropriate them in the national sense (though they're mostly Canadian anyway). Typical Americans!

My only other dreams are to be invisible in a chocolate factory and to date a celebrity.
