I don't know what you're talking about? I had Civilization and Wing Commander on my Amiga 500 (68000/7 megahertz) computer, and they looked just as good as the IBM PC version. More importantly I can still play the Amiga versions, whereas the PC versions crash both my Win98 and WinXP machines. (That's why I hate using PCs for gaming.)
Then get your good old MS-DOS machine instead of those newfangled Windows thingys and try those games on that, or your comparison is like comparing apples and apple cider.
And bringing this back to the topic:
In many cases when dealing with Finnish government, the first, and usually the best, answer is "look from the X website". Same with banking, you do it online, or pay extra to do it face to face. Now the big push is online billing, so no paper would be sent anymore. One really starts to _need_ computer and internet to function in Finnish society.
This being the case, something has to give. Either men need to stop behaving offensively, or women need to stop being so easily offended.
I'm finding that the latter is a popular suggestion here on/. and I wonder why that is. It seems to me that it's more reasonable to ask the people being immature to cut it out than to ask women to suck it up. (Again, for a few reasons: assignment of responsibility to track moral fault and assignment responsibility to the cheapest cost avoider come to mind)
I also think a lot of people are taken in by a false dichotomy here. Women can (and should) do both; they can do their best to function in our society as it is while challenging its inequities.
No need to wonder: men don't want to grow up, we want to be immature some times, at least I want to. Take away all the fun and games and dirty jokes and you get very dull experience for a male used to that, especially if the work/hobby is the last place where he can have fun. Also men are more competitive (or are we?) and part of that is downplaying of others, maybe with not so nice words.
Of course there are real chauvinists everywhere and competitiveness and immaturity can be overdone, but in my experience generally women are more sensitive to that. Calling me dickhead nets you finger and FU, but try calling female dickhead and see what happens.
As a long time Battle Tech fan I must mention Megamek.
Quote from the wikipedia:
MegaMek is an open source, turn-based strategy computer game that simulates the Classic BattleTech board game. MegaMek is not licensed by or affiliated with WizKids or Catalyst Game Labs, the owners and publishers of the BattleTech line, but is nonetheless a faithful simulation of the game. Exceptions are a few trademarked items changed by the developers (e.g., changing 'Mech to Mek).
You may be right about my test being unfair, but the basic point is that a lot of what you see on the Internet is second-hand information derived from offline sources. Ultimately it boils down to the fact that Wikipedia is not a primary source, and that people who learn primarily through Web resources often think they know more than they actually do.
Are books primary source? I thought that they are just derived from from non written source called people. Books are just a medium and even they got their "knowledge" from parchments and stone tablets. Should we disregard books, because they are printed, not written by hand by the people that with the knowledge?
I don't know any figures, but If you are drinking then you aren't driving? So less CO2.
If you are drinking, then you probably are not operating "industry". So less CO2.
So alcohol is SAVING our planet!
Go green and drink more! ...I'm running to buy Anheuser-Busch stock...
I've owned small number of Sennheisers. 2 in fact. HD280Pro and now HD595.
Connections have not been problem but plasticy construction is. 280s headband failed and I suspect that 595s will too with time. My next headphones will have metal headband. 280Pros with metal construction would be win.
I use a large stick to do my web design.
How? Well, I go down to my basement and hit the Chinese illegal immigrant I have chained to my PC until he makes the page I want.
You make Chinese illegal immigrant to mate with the page you want?!? Oh, make...
Legal or illegal is an open question but to me it's pretty clear cut that what they are doing is immoral.
Morals... there are so many of them as there are people. You would like TPB crew to act according to yours and Bin Laden would like you to act according to his. Are you saying that your moral is better than other people's morals?
Yeah! Like Spore... oh, it had only creature editor. Hmm GTA IV! Damn! No demo... Ah new Need 4 Speed... no demo. Hitman, oh yeah, finally a demo. But why they must hide demos (and everything else) behind crappy flash sites?

Myst? Like the one mentioned in page 3 of the article? Or has the article changed after your comment?

Of course if it really was just ATT's way of responding to a DDoS attack then perhaps everyone overreacted.
Sure... then it was only DoS attack?
I think accepting DoS instead of DDoS no way a good trade.

Sending large amounts of irregular wire transfers purely for the purpose of causing monetary damage would most certainly be a criminal act.
I just hope that sending parts of media files for the purpose of nailing someone of copyright infringement is criminal act too...
Why do you need an addon?
Firefox:
1. Triple click to highlight. 2. Drag to empty area of tab bar.
Empty area? In tab bar? With dozens of tabs? Can I have your monitor please!

Uh oh... I hope that my smallpox vaccine is still valid, it would suck to get smallpox and land in jail because of it.
Probably not very reliable, but: "The food situation in occupied Germany was initially very dire (see Eisenhower and German POWs). By the spring of 1946 the official ration in the U.S. zone was no more than 1275 calories per day, with some areas probably receiving as little as 700.
