The idea of doing whatever was possible in stopping the problem at the source, including education of parents, kids, teachers and politicians, and serious law enforcement efforts at detection and prosecution of perpetrators and distributors, was seen as probably as, or more, effective than a filter initially aimed at preventing inadvertent browsing of child porn on the web by young people.
So, we're only blocking child porn from being viewed by children? It's alright for adults? What a terrible notion and/or poor choice of words.
Depends which boss and if you've hit the hard enrage timer.
Bloodboil phase 1 cleave (5k) * hard enrage (+500%) = 30000

At least it's not FATX (Xbox filesystem).
Given the 64-byte directory entry size, the file PATH must be <= 42 characters.
(Feel free to correct/augment these details, I just know that if you want to upload a file with a long name, you need to move it up one or more subdirectories).
Here's a working (although somewhat messy) implementation in Lua. I could probably optimise performance and/or LoC, but that's another exercise.:)
It accepts an optional size parameter (defaults to 8), prints out the running time, and the solution if it's <= 16x16. http://pastebin.ca/1272049

It's not to specify a data type, it's to give the user (and file browsers) a hint as to what it is. I can call my zip file "foobar" if I want, but only the person who created it would know what it contains (unless it were documented somewhere, or a browser pre-emptively opens the file to determine it).
Not really. I've never used a Macintosh because I've never personally needed to. I have no desire to change, because Windows does what I need.
If at some point in the future I'm presented with a Mac and I have a need to use it, I'll make comparisons and see which I prefer. Until then, I'm happy with Windows.
Why is this even a fair comparison?
If you're talking in terms of features and usability, Google Apps is to OpenOffice what WordPad is to Word.
If you want an easy way to store and access documents from anywhere and you don't care about anything more than simple formatting, Google Apps wins hands down.
Never used a Macintosh, nor do I plan to migrate any time soon.
I won't get into the whole console vs PC debate (because no-one ever wins), but you will never make me choose a console over a PC.
Your persistent drug-addiction-like dependence on gaming has placed all profiting parties so high on their thrones that they will continue to rule you and all the people like you.
I code Java and PL/SQL all day at work, so when I get home, I want to play games. As such, my PC at home is built mostly for gaming.
Put some principles before your pleasure once in a while and you might develop what some call "character."
If a new game comes out that I want to play, and won't run in Wine, I can either run it Windows, or fight with my OS trying to get it working while my friends tell me how awesome it is. Thank God I have my "principles" to keep me all warm and fuzzy. Sorry, but that doesn't sound like fun.
The game developers will not write to Linux or even Mac OS while they already have your short-n-curlies. They have no motivation to change while you remain staunchly loyal to their current model.
I'm sure many game developers are avid Linux users at home, and are forced to use Windows at work. I'm also sure that many of them would love to see their game running natively in MacOS and/or Linux. The problem is the publisher, who usually doesn't see that market as being "economically viable." People need to understand the difference between "developer" and "publisher."
So if I manually extract the files from the installer and add all the registry entries and what not (if I happened to know what they were), such that the application will function perfectly, that means I'm using the software without the EULA even being presented to me. If I was never given a "license" to agree to, how does that stand legally?
I'm sure EA/etc. would make some bogus claim of not being allowed to "reverse engineer", which is rather amusing since that clause is usually in the EULA too.
Vi plugin for Eclipse and Visual Studio actually makes them have a worthwhile editor...
Which Vi plugin for Eclipse do you use? I had a go at one or two a while ago and just couldn't get them working properly. They seemed pretty buggy too. It's a pity because I'd love the functionality, depending on how well it integrated with existing code completion and what not.
What I think is funny is that for gold farmers and power levelers, World of Warcraft IS their job. I hate gold spammers as much as the next guy, but getting paid to play WoW sounds pretty sweet to me.
I took a flight from Adelaide to Melbourne a few years back for a concert (Queensrÿche, actually), and while I was onboard I had a go at their "in-flight entertainment system".
With some great effort, I loaded up Tetris, which was buggy as hell, and managed to make their frontend actually crash. It dumped me out to a Windows CE desktop with an IE icon and everything. I managed to restart the thing and it started downloading the OS over wireless modem connection. I was scared.

Say I create a directory with some extensionless© files in it, and I run the following command:
I now have a text file (although only I know it's a text file) with a list of files that only I know what they are (or maybe I don't!)

By "decide", Microsoft means "with a gun at their head and a grin on their face."

When Linux can run every single Windows-based game I play, flawlessly, I'll move. Until then, I'd rather use Windows.

A square circle is a non-thing, therefore even an omnipotent God cannot make it.

Nah, I put each one in a separate subfolder called: goat1, goat2, goat3... etc. ;)
Besides which, how much porn does a man really need?
If you're after rapid spinning, you should probably get yourself a cat and butter up some toast.
