Throughout my entire life, I've had my surname misspelled by people. Even when I entered it into an online form which was then printed onto a shipping label, somehow an errant "p" crept in. Please, for my sake, be lazy and copy/paste from now on...
P.S. I am from the UK.

"internationals" - why not just call them niggers/spics/wogs/chinks/jews/cp's
That is absolutely magnificent. Shoulda kept them hanging for years, stated that as the majority shareholder you wanted your old boss to take a 50% pay cut, etc, etc. Still, there's not much improving on perfection
Probably not, you might be thinking of cis-platin, the anti-cancer drug, which contains platinum (of all things) but it bears as much resemblence to platinum as aspirin does to charcoal.
The riddick game actually does this quite well. Without combat, there's no hud, in hand-to-hand there's an abstract health meter only, and when reloading a weapon it shows a count of remaining clips. Ammo readout is on the gun itself, there's no other hud.
Nail on the head. So many of the awful things we're stuck with today on the internet are because of design decisions made when resources were scarce, or problems were not envisioned - I've always said that the only way to fix it is to throw most of it away and start again. TCP, IP, all old and flawed.
That everyone equates FPS to multiplayer, or at least most of them do? 3 our of the 4 games in tfa seem to be MP-only, and most of the comments are about MP games. As someone on a sucky internet connection who also sucks at MP games, I vastly prefer games with a decent singleplayer campaign, like halo, halflife $whatever, quake 1,2,4, even plotless games like painkiller or the serious sams.
And where will the money come from to pay a housekeeper to keep your household running whilst you parent your children? People on slashdot always blame the parents, the only parents among them are highly-paid professionals. I'm just saying.
.. and it's crazy to cover your ears and go "la la I'm not listening." So you'd say that 50% of the female tailors and florists should switch careers with bricklayers and binmen?
Whoever modded this flamebait, get a fucking clue. The possibility of buying votes was the official stated reason for *not* issuing receipts for e-votes cast.
it wouldn't have to be 43k. Reading from some of the other posts around, people seem to think that the 10 kelvins extra is a big deal, so why not just design the equipment to run at 263 instead of 273?
Why would electronics need to be at 0c? other than the electrical properties of silicon, I can't see a reason to keep the temperature above ambient at all, and you have to admit it'd be handy to be able to use superconductors.
Hit the nail on the head, migrating away from windows on the home user machines is a bad idea, because there just isn't enough bollocksware for linux. It wouldn't be profitable. Plus, they'd need to retrain every single support tech, which would boggle the mind as they employ something like 85% of india's population.

That's actually a 2p coin, it's about 2.5cm in diameter.
Doy, how could it? Silly me.
Your maths is wrong, the answer is in joules. Much more reasonable equivalent of 0.228 kilotons, or 100 dust motes per hiroshima.
first post, eh? Very bold of you to open with a funny

The stated MTBF was low because nasa knew that they'd probably outlast it.
And don't forget driving around on the surface of mars for 2 years.
Hey, I said plotless had merits. The narrow fov sucks but it passes the time.

AMEN to that. Every few weeks, I find myself playing halflife 2 through again, it never gets old.

Remember, mail in your republican-voting vote receipts before march 5th to claim your free tub of ben and jerrys!
Doyyyy, I was thinking grey goo type nano-accident. Still, DX1 is awesome
Grey death is in deus ex 2, an arguably inferior sequel.

But when I see an article about a product that's not described in any way, I think "slashvertisement." So, how much does it cost?
