HOwever, on the serious side, I hope those advocating against this are not the same people who, in the other thread about 911, said it was better to arm the populace. Hipocrisy[spellcheck is out] is never pretty.
yes, because gunfights are much better then hiding out and preserving human life...
Sorry, but arming everyone to the teeth makes things worse, not better. This has been proven everywhere else internationally. Hundreds fewer gun crimes in Canada, nearly zero in the UK. Many dead by bullet in the US. No source, google the stats, they are there.
MS makes it very easy to apply patches. Probably easier then anyone else. Unfortunately, you have to wait 3 months or more to get the damn patch because until then they either deny the bug's existance or put in their knowledgebase a cheap workaround full of blaming other companies' software that destroys something else in it's place(anyone remember the GeForce 2 MX + Via chipset bluescreen glitch? Nvidia and Via would blame MS, MS would blame nvidia and via)
I helped fix computers that were screwed up due to spyware. Many of which had spyware that would actually replace the intended links on certain webpages with those of the spyware application's sponsers.
Also, my parents had to go on dial-up. They had so much spyware on their system their internet connection was worth sh!t due to all the bandwidth used to deliver their info to sponsers.
I have no pity for fallen spyware nor would I disagree with criminal records and/or fines to those who install applications secretly(page 9 on a EULA is bullsh!t), and make them impossible to remove EVEN AFTER the application ITSELF if removed.
Nice tactic to go AC. Many misguided souls go that route.
All I can say is that if you do work for a company condoning that nonsense, keep that sh!t away from my family.
I create content, I then shoot it out. I then have no right to define how the hell those people to which I shoot this content to absorb this info.
Sorry, this is how it should be, not as it is....
In any case, legislating how people absorb this information is Orwellian at best and any attempts to pass laws which would impede my rights so that a third party to which I have no direct affiliation can control/limit in what way I receive information will be frowned upon myself, the majority and anyone who doesn't like trust our large corporate friends to do whats best.(obvious exception if the transmission of that information impedes the rights of someone else to do the same, ie regulation of RF wavelengths, etc...)
And if you think belittling someone else makes you look smart, get a fcucking clue.
Best Buy never had any official rigth to sell it before the launch anyway.
That's the point.
None of my local stores are selling it so I'm glad a few lucky smacktards can't go in and play it two weeks ago and flaunt, "Ooooh, what a lovely game" to us who have to wait or those who preordered.
Valve said the 16th. The game will be playable on the 16th. Vivendi might be acting like arseholes right now but that does not mean anyone ever had the right to play it before the 16th as was advertised EVERYWHERE.
Complaining about it not being playable until the 16th is akin to complaining coffee is hot and water is wet.
And it's not like a stereotype is given or anything. Regardless of the average IQ of those states, be it high or low, anyone on AOL can't possibly have a high IQ;P
I am quite happy to see "ethical" legal action. I believe ths will set a positive trend and I support Nintendo on being the video game good guys. And I do feel better actually buying their stuff and supporting them all the way(DS here I come)
However, not to dampen the mood, 35$+ for Donkey Kong(original) on the GBA is just plain wrong.
Hydrogen burns, so sayeth my chemistry material
Also, it is used to perform explosions in rockets, scramjets, ets, through the mixing of pure hydrogen with pure oxygen. The process that creates water is quite potent and is even used to send things in orbit. By your own statements, the Hindenberg [no spellcheck] would have caused a crater the size of Texas.
this is interesting, when I search for it via a US based proxy, I can still see them....
maybe your country has a firewall like china now:)
but honestly, I can see them via both google.ca and google.com via pureprivacy.com
bizarre
I can see the photos quite easily via google.ca and I've never gotten a DMCA warning. Google is following your laws and pressures but is at least nice enough to leave us out of it.
Or one could analyze what makes the terrorist wants to blow themselves up and formulate the proper solution of prevention that doesn't involve spawning more terrorist through acts of hate or occupation of foreign ressources.
First off, I apoligize for the lack of line breakers, I forgot/. uses html formatting
secondly, while FF6 had more characters, the characters were more dry and not quite as "cool(with all that entails).
What FF6 had going for it was the delivery of the characters and the setting in which they were introduced. Narshe, Vector, etc... were all memorable towns and the Airships looked man-made. The world itself was just plain well-detailed and the characters were well thought out, for sure. It makes FF6 my fav FF to play.
Kefka was a strong character, and an excellent villain, but had absolutely no background. Sephy had a shiteload of background story. Hell, you sympathized with him.
FF7's world wasn't as deep, but the characters themselves stuck with you.
But one thing they both had in common:
They both had character with EXCELLENT finishing moves that got killed before you could use them:P(Aeris's Lv4 and Leo's swordamajig)

Your point is incorrect. The Internet is based on consensual anarchy. The act of mutilating someone's body is in the realm of reality.
I hope you were joking because if you were not, it wasn't a very good argument.

It was only once someone stepped out of their authority and took matters into their own hands that something happened.
...And became globally hated for it and will ultimately suffer for it.

Not a feature, a fact.
If your domain is listed as expired, then teh registry itself will refuse the xfer. Doesn't matter who the registrar is.

then they like us better;)
However this appears only to affect the US

When all that we know about something suggests a probability that life is not currently present(and even NASA will say so), then is is not probable
he never said it was not possible

You can now be sent to prison for life if you run a pr0n site in China.
Should China try to extradite all US pr0n site webmasters?
