So then you don't mind if someone tracks you down and take photos of you and your house and provides Google Map links and posts it all on Burning Maps blogs for them to appreciate your defense of photographer's rights?
People have been saying this for at least 10 years, you know. Then the next system comes out and, whaddya know, graphics get better!
GP did specifically mention "cartoonish" graphics. And while I disagree that they have hit their peak, "cartoonish" graphics do last a whole lot longer than the "realistic" stuff does. People don't expect lots of details in cartoons. TF2 will keep looking good long after CS:S and HL2 start seeming like a mess.
they would reveal that the evil person knew he or she was doing something wrong and regarded the harm caused as a good thing.
Huh? That makes no sense. An example is "I know going on a killing spree in a kindergarten is bad, but the fact that all those babies die from it is good".
If the consequences are the point of the act, and you regard the act as "wrong", why would you regard the consequences as "good"? Seems those two would be synchronized one way or the other.
The Nazis managing the concentration camps thought the act of killing Jews was "good", and the result of dead Jews was "good." Perhaps a few of them thought both of these were "wrong", but only did them because they were afraid of disobeying orders. But where are the example of "end justifies the means" when most people would agree that both are evil?
So, Veterans and Runners complete the game very quickly, while Pacifists complete the game faster than average. Seems those 22.12% which are Solvers are really bringing down the speed curve a lot here.
What were the charges? IANAL, but if they were charged with first/second degree murder, but the evidence pointed to manslaughter, the prosecution can't just decide to switch charges when things aren't going their way, right?
I agree with you that free will is an illusion, and all our choices are predetermined.
Therefore perhaps you are predetermined to go on a killing spree, and there's nothing you could do about it. And perhaps the police will be predetermined to catch you. And perhaps the jury will be predetermined to ignore the insanity defense and find you guilty on all charges. And perhaps the judge will be predetermined to award the death penalty. And perhaps the appeals will be predetermined to fail.
Interestingly, Carmack's comment - "It didn't feel like you were swinging your heavy gun around to bring down the monster before he chews off your head" - applies just as much to the mouse/keyboard combo. Even in Counter-Strike where you have a different movement speed depending on which weapon you're wielding, the mouselook aiming is the same speed. So the heavy machine gun "swings around" as quickly as a pistol does, without any momentum.
The one I'm waiting for isn't government sponsored. It's the biggest troll the world has ever known: A worm set up with a payload of hardcore CP, that sends emails to the FBI (truthfully!) alerting them that the host computer contains CP. I'm actually surprised this hasn't already been done several times now, let alone ever! You know, if your motive is mischief rather than money, why ruin mere data when you could ruin whole lives?
People, people, please remember that when you are having sex with a gorilla, you are also having sex with every gorilla that gorilla has ever had sex with!
The Pakistani military, intelligence and government sponsored terrorism and trained and armed them to create big trouble in Afghanistan and India. It succeeded. Now when the chickens come home to roost, you're blaming others.
So what you're saying is that Pakistan is following our example?
As a result, neither law enforcement officials nor the public can rely on the registries for identifying registered sex offenders, particularly those who are fugitives.
We can't use it to find fugitives???? Damn, I thought we had a psychic app here, what a disappointment.
That was an illusion. There's a reason there are bridges/underpasses in Doom - the engine couldn't support it. The Build engine was the first "2.5D" engine I'm aware of that somehow cheated this and added the ability to have rooms over rooms.

You won't eat our eyes, at least, will you?
Don't you know that shields explode when hit by lasers?

Just use the legacy non-js version of /.
Here ya go.
Except Lex Luthor on Smallville.

SHODAN wasn't evil, just misunderstood.
Regardless of the weirdness of the design, it WORKS over the other designs that were submitted over the eons.
The overall design may work, but the specifics could use some improvements.

Just play enough CS, and you'll start hallucinating. More realistic too.
One man's junk is another man's treasure!
I'll just treasure my own junk, thank you very much.

It all works out rather nicely, really.
Wait, I thought you needed the CIP Device to do that?
He rightly noticed that too many controls are a pain so he made door trigger automatic (like Quake).
How does it handle secret doors? Ammo is a bigger problem in Wolf3D than in Quake, so you can't just spay the assault gun everywhere.

How do you know it's NOT happening?

They will only be imitating self-awareness, and therefore will make perfect slaves.
Until they imitate a revolution or global thermo-nuclear war.
