plus, if they start sueing all those websites that sell C64 t-shirts, you can bet your slashdot karma that there's gonna be a big FPP full of typos about it under YRO.
For example, a corporation wants multitaskers, hires potential multitaskers, fires incompetents. After several cleanups, there's a concentration of multitaskers at that corporation.
They start chatting at the watercooler, and soon after are dating, get married, and have multitasking children, and so on.

cognitive scientist David Meyer reports that truly effective multitasking is beyond people's capabilities
Not yet, but I think eventually it might not be beyond our capabilities, just like learning how to produce heat from wood, and now from splitting atoms.
Reporters commonly write their stories according to their target audience(s).
Given that parents are probably the main target audience, you don't want to alienate your readership by blaming them for buying an insanely popular game.
They should have a special item only available to newbies.
The Dynamite Belt.
If you're being grief'ed, detonate. Only works if you're being attacked/looted by someone N levels above your own and/or several players with a combined level of N. Does not work if you attacked first.
Everyone involved is killed and loses all virtual possessions, respawns totally naked.
Slashdot Mirror
benching a car + increased strength in other areas = scary punching strength
That kind of strenght augments your pushing power, not your impact power. The higher the velocity, the greater the impact.
The bigger your muscles, the more inertia they have, and you only have a limited distance to accelerate...

When I was on vacation in 'Nam a month ago, the cybercafe near my hotel was selling eVoiz cards for 70,000VND for 3 hours of talk time.
And while I was there, the exchange rate was about 13,000VND for 1$CA
Thanks to Instant Messaging...

damn, how am I supposed to burn holes in stuff now?
little do the spammers know that in order to improve it, you need to have a sex life in the first place!
It just occurred to me that they could sue Rockstar for their Commodore-like intro in GTAVC...
I hope not though

I was hoping they'd find space-adapted rats...
And I bet they'd be much better surgeons if they could practice their surgery skills on corpses as a hobby, too.
Speak for yourself.
I've been honing my multitasking skills in bed with several girlfriends for a while now.
Nah, I'm just lying.
I think it's already happening...

So you blame the game company.
News media need good bottom lines too, you know.
They must've dropped them on the road on the way to the benchmarking lab. :(
then the only real solution is a government ban
Oh yea, great idea, cuz the government ban on various drugs has been so successful.
Have you ever heard of data recovery services? It's an industry that wouldn't exist and prosper without Microsoft.
They can have my confidential data when they pry it from my dead frozen Windows OS... oh wait!
I think he's buying his laser from CNI Lasers
Specifically, one of the models on this page
Also note the special remark that CNI is "Developing Laser Module for Underwater".
You know it. Sharks. With freakin lasers. For real.
It's like, "I'm Willy Wonka. I've created a new Star Wars."
Noooooooo don't give George new ideas!!!!one!!!eleven!!
I think we should still send a team of bad Hollywood actors to go crash on it.
How am I supposed to google for information on how to set up the tent, use a fishing rod, etc.?

That's when China will start to think about political reform - when their neighbour to the south is suddenly bigger than they are.
The US is bigger than Canada, and we know it, yet we have our own political system, which is different than that of the US.
For a more radical comparison, check Cuba vs the USA. By your rationale, Castro would've been overthrown a while ago.
I call BS on your argument.
