(please resist any temptation you may have to not use your mouse for looking around)
What exactly is wrong with using the mouse for looking around? It makes it easier to maneuver and aim at the same time.
What do you use to look around? the arrow keys? I frankly can't think of any other way to set it up. Plus that's the default for every FPS game I have played.
Yeah, but what if he anticipated that people would think he wouldn't be stupid enough to use his real name, so he actually did use his real name because he knew nobody would be looking for him then.
Lets say you park in a parking garage that charges by the minute, while you go shop at the mall, and just browse around. You come back to you car, and then as you leave all of a sudden your car comes to a screeching halt, and a video monitor pops out of the ceiling in front of you. It begins to play a 30-second TV commercial, turning over your time meter and making you pay an extra dollar.
Now I ask you: How many people do you think would want to buy what the commercial was advertising? Would you? In fact, a lot of people would grow resent towards that company.
Furthermore, how long do you think it will be before somebody figures out the mechanism and jams a screwdriver in the servo motor?
The companies that invested in the video monitors will be out money, and the companies that payed for the advertising will have a much, much smaller and more resentful clientelle.
It is pretty obvious that this is a very, very bad idea, but a lot of people in marketing don't have that kind of foresight
Does anybody else notice that the only people posting comments are men trying to explain the phenomenon? Maybe the reason they buy more is the same reason they don't go to this site: they're not nerdy enough to know what's truly worth buying
Yeah, but i have learned not to do that because she never comes back with *insert gadget/techno babble here* she comes back with a shinier, crappier, more expensive substitute.

The world is so cruel. First he gets sued by a major corporation, and now we've slashdotted the poor kid's server. When will it end?

if this really does what you say, then a simple application of ctrl-alt-del ought to do the trick good enough for us M$-slaves.

Hey, i heard my friend talking about that show, what channel/time is it on?
