I'd say that yes, you do have a point that all of this could have gone wrong. But just remember that if enough of these incidents go wrong, the internet crowd won't help out anymore since they'll be sticking their neck out for a liar.
Think along the lines of "The Boy Who Cried Wolf" and the fact that, for the most part anyway, trolls and the like are usually outed or marked before they do any real damage.
Thinking about it, I'd like to believe that this is where the saying "Anonymous is NOT your personal army" originated from. Sane people with the intelligence to carry stuff like this out just tired of being played by a random troll or person with a bone to pick.
I'm not an English major, I'm a CS one so my english comprehension may be a bit off but this doesn't look like an article to me. More like a list.
A Top Five list.
I mean, if you're gonna whine as to why other departments get inflated grades and what not why don't you first realize that they are other departments and can set their own rules and regulations regarding their material?
Do you really think telling someone you graduated with a degree in theater* will carry the same weight as a degree in a science?
*no offense to theater majors but y'all are at the bottom of the academic totem pole anyway:P
Actually, I always figured Microsoft was going to lose this one. And it kind of seemed on purpose since HD-DVD couldn't really be considered more than a codec. A damn good codec (relative!), but a codec nonetheless. So to really carry any weight it would have to be spacious (size-wise!) like Bluray in order to be a viable alternative to DVDs in carrying game content and therefore not just next gen movie format but also the next standard disc format
But like you said, they needed something out there and knew that Sony wouldn't license them the hardware and figured they might as well go the easy, as in least troublesome, route and release a add-on instead of replacing the tried and true DVD and then, when Blue-Ray was nice and stable and a standard (de-facto-in-every home, not just an approved standard) they'd make an effort to license it either as an add-on for the 360, the drive in their next system, or an add-on in their next system.
The US matters only because it's a market and you know, superpower status, hence why I said that let me know when this is available to me in the US. I mean, we all know Japan sets the bar for phone service and features and the whole of Europe for the portability of the actual phone and I would so love to have that here. But due to various reasons (e.g. Big Business, Gub'mint, population density) I can't.
you go to mars. Oddly enough it sounds like a decent idea if you're an uber-smart hermit.
I'm still for the colonization idea though cause this almost makes me feel like the ones that go will either kill themselves or develop an elitist attitude towards Earth saying "I left it. Why should I care what happens".

It was a while before it occurred to me to look it up but once I did, I wound up reading up on the history of the Oregon Trail and really made me appreciate dying of natural causes:3
And speaking of ancient games, as a kid, before we were allowed to start playing Oregon Trail we had to prove we understood the concepts of operating a computer with a mouse. Crap everyone knows by now:P But I would really like to get a copy of that one. All I remember was the computers it ran on were PowerPC's running one of the color versions of the Apple OS.
Actually, one of my CS Professors loves using Netbeans and would ocassionally make crack remarks about me using Eclipse...
So more than likely there's some hidden agenda to get you guys using Eclipse.
I use it because it suits my taste and because Netbeans was finicky on the Mac last time I tried it... but that was around two years ago so YMMV
This maybe regarded as off-topic since it may have been covered before, but I'd like to add to your post with the fact that Argentinians tend to also sound like Spaniards and that unless you've been exposed to, i.e. lived in places like L.A. and had the interactions in spanish with the spanish speaking folk, you won't understand the usage of the idioms spoken by another dialect. Neither do ways of saying nor sayings have any easy interchange between the dialects...
Best example would be the comparison of American and British english but extended to 21 different, if you're not counting the US' three different amalgamations of the dialects, variations:P
Take a look at the education system in Japan if it would help build/modify your thesis about what kind of change should be applied...
I'm aware of the main difference is that Japanese pupils are prepared for university/college and you propose the same to be done but for the HS system and there is only one thing I can say about it other that expressing my approval..
I just really hope that suicide rates do not go up.
The iPhone is a GSM phone meaning it has a SIM in it and in one way or another will be accessible. At least if this thread is be belived.
The only thing that MIGHT surprise me is if the SIM card is different, but then again, wouldn't we have heard about a different SIM chip specification by now?
Joking aside, that type of spelling seems to have originated from trying to sound cute than to intentionally misspell.. Hell, look at lolcats and how they've gone past being just another macro with cats in the pic!
Although similar, the T-1000 had a brain (in a chip!) that processed the whole humans == bad causing them to rampage. This one has a joystick controlled by a human.
At first while reading the article -no, i've been here a while- when they were explaining about the sensors in the legs I though the sensors were directly linked to the ankles of the rider making the robot legs respond to the movement of the rider's legs -_-;
So then can you explain to me why most of my Mexican friends that live in Souther California have parents with rural or lower class backgrounds?
Not to troll or anything but this is one question/reason I've always had as to why most of the Souther California Hispanic/Latino population does not prosper and if you have a reason as to why this is, I'd appreciate it.

But I like the backlight. That way I don't have to worry about having an external light source.
:D
Then again, years of being in front of a screen and a proper prescription means no more headaches nor tired eyes

Cause it's easier to over run Rhode Island with DHS agents than California :P
And if it really worked that way, ALL the states would follow California's emissions standards not just, you know, California*...
*I'm aware there are a couple states that do

The first two make more sense to me though -_-
Bah, sorry. I had momentarily forgotten that people round these parts know the difference between a /, ., -, and a ~.
But yes, that's what I meant, Year Month Day
That's why my files get dated YYYY/MM/DD so as to avoid any unnecessary confusion. Makes it easier to sort too:D
That was exactly my point.

And that makes me sad.
...when this affects my GSM phones in the USA.
:P
Seriously, only when something (in regards to cell phones) has been completed in the US can it really be considered standard.
But enough about that, let's get back to the people wanting a cell phone that only works as a phone
Ted Kaczynski wanted his manifesto to be read even if it meant killing people. He wanted his message to be spread. How would he do that on Mars?!
I was thinking more of those that no longer cared to be around people, Kaczynski cared enough to incite a revolution at the cost of lives.
Honestly, that short question sounds rather trollish...

Not on the same topic but pretty similar. It talks about the security of the wireless access points in the neighborhood...

I don't mind using a pink DS, but my friends do
You mean "for sufficiently large values of United States of America"

Thoughts of the VF-1 came to me though...
