He was walking down a staircase, and before reaching the bottom, he jumped, landed in a low stance, looked behind him, looked forward, got back up and started walking again.
I figured he played console games a little too much.
The point I was trying to make is, Game-based or otherwise, I don't think that the movie industry is going to survive much longer if it keeps on using cookie-cutter-plots.
I never lived in an earthquake prone area, but in November 1988, I heard the biggest one felt in Canada a good 30 seconds before everyone. (6.2 on the Richter scale, about 30 km from Chicoutimi, QC). It sounded like a huge invisible semi was coming my way.
Since then I've always wanted to spend some time in California or Japan to test my earthquake hearing further.
I unknowingly prepared myself to learn English by watching American cartoons.
When they started teaching us English as a second language in primary school, I was way ahead of every other kid, and the English teacher got me to help out the other kids.

...with Steve's new look? I mean his beard... cmon.
Still makes me wonder about network pollution though...

but what if you modded laser LEDs into your case, then the pizza heating problem would be solved...
Maybe it's like a reverse laser?
The development of reverse sharks cannot be far behind...
can you run a cluster with it?
I can tell we have much expertise on this topic... along with the best digital movie cameras, the best computers, the best DVD recorders...
I bet we could really make excellent movies, too.
All we'd need is some actresses willing to star with us in the movies, and... oh wait!
If it's so hard for them not to get angry, maybe they aren't up to the job?
Do they have computer driven strap-on's yet?
(didn't RTFA)
(also, spell "strap on" backwards)

Who in their right mind would go pay to see a movie that was rendered on an NES?
The same people who went to see the South Park movie instead of going to a Disney one?
If you have an excellent plot and decent acting, people seem to care less about the actual quality of the images on screen.
No lasers on sharks, or even seabass, but at least there will be a "Minime" for 10$ or so.
Makes me wonder if Slashdot had a story about the first "half GB" hard drive...
Searching the archives out of curiosity didn't yield any results with the obvious key words...
Here, the techies must know about slashdot. I have the "trusted site" icon on the frame of my browser... ;)
Instead of pointing your laser at an airplane, you should mount it on a shark and have it point the laser at a submarine.
At least it wont blind the crew and wont get you into trouble with the FBI.
I was a closet-nerd.
I joined the Football team, I went to the gym, I dated the cheerleaders... but at some point it got so frustrating to live such a falsehood.
I eventually moved out of the frathouse and into a poorly lit basement appartment and switched from a BA in Phys. Ed. to Computer Sciences.
Now I read slashdot and I live the out-of-closet life of a warflamin'geek! w00
I believe one day that every site on the Internets will be Slashdot-proof.
Office Space would have had a slightly different story...
I was actually with other people who thought I was going nuts, "hearing things".
So no, I didnt imagine it.
I believe some of us can still hear earthquakes.

Try cat juggling instead!
Like SCO, Infinium Labs, are doing...
How do you carry a laptop in a bag? Vertically
How do you carry a pizza in a box? Horizontally
There's your disguise spoiler right there.

but Chewie kissed first!
Wake me up when they start selling cheap monitors that display true voxels.
And with a zero dead voxel policy, too.
