I know that in all of the XBox racing games I've played they force you to watch at least one screen saying that driving feats in the game should not be attempted in real life. There is a similar message at the beginning of the F&F DVD.
In the Florida elections thousands of people, mostly black Democrats, were delisted for being felons. The vast majority of these felonies did not take place and were dated up to a milennium in the future. Further, the list was comprised of people who had moved from Texas to Florida. The Floridan Democrats barred from voting were not actually felons, they were locked out as a favor from one Bush to the other.
TigerDirect actually used to offer a product that did exactly that. I don't have an old catalog around and the new ones don't have it, but I know it advertised that it allowed a second user on the computer with separate monitor, keyboard, and mouse.
Defending yourself against baseless lawsuits is very expensive and time-consuming. Those who were not stealing sattellite TV signals had their lives greatly disturbed. DirecTV suing a large group of people with no basis other than posession of a device that could possibly be used to steal signals is nothing but abuse of the legal system and I hope they get taken to task for such tactics.
Or he could mean that school sales were literally the only thing keeping them afloat, the literally referring to the only instead of the afloat. However, then you wouldn't get to act smug.
The action was cool... but I'm sorry, Dark City was incredibly boring and I found it LESS philosphical than The Matrix. So... we have these aliens who need to figure out our essence in order to avoid extinction, so they keep rearranging the city and everyone in it in an attempt to do this. Yay? Some guy figures out how it works and can rearrange the city himself, so he fights the aliens, wins, and rearranges the city into a nice one based on his false memories. This doesn't strike me as very deep, no different than if in the Matrix Neo decided to just live in the matrix and make everything happy and warm. The Matrix at least spends more time on the question of what the right course of action is, and Keanu Reaves is nowhere NEAR as annoying as that doctor guy who has to take a breath every other word.
I was under the impression that fat binaries worked by having specific code for all supported architectures, not by being very high level, and thus could be as optimized as the programmers cared to make it.
You're wrong. They used the Q1 engine. However, Q2 was released in the meantime, and many elements thereof were added to Half-life. Still, the engine was a modification of the Q1, albeit with over half of the code removed.
To equate prosecuting a handful of college students who wrote indexing software as part of a general decay of electronic rights with a rounding up of thieves shows a lack of perspective on YOUR part. Writing indexing software is NOT stealing by any remote stretch.
Um yeah, CS is based on Halflife and is very light on system usage. Some of us play newer games. Not to get snotty, but the fact that CS works fine on a moderate system doesn't obviate the need for processing power for games.
A few years ago, I had just installed a Hercules GeForce256 DDR, right when it hit market. I wanted to see how big it was in comparison to the Voodoo3 it replaced, so while the computer was running (very stupid) I stuck the V3 in next to the GF256 and there was this loud crackle and spark, yet somehow the computer didn't even lock up and everything still worked, I have no idea how I didn't kill the entire computer and both video cards.
No, he may point out an issue in his English when he sees an error. If he tries to get high and mighty about it, sure, he needs perfect English. However, for pointing out a mistake, all you need is to notice it. No one's English is beyond reproach, and yet people validly correct each other on a regular basis. Correction is requisite for improvement.

You forgot "I LOVE THIS COMPANY!"
And Slashcode, just do you know, that is SUPPOSED to be yelled.
Antitrust.
That's ok, we never use them around here anyway.
He means PO box.
Funny, I'm a tan buff athlete now... does wonders for your life!

Then you guys need to learn how to run, because a tractor doing work is barely a brisk walk.

Except you have to take all steps you can to reduce ongoing damages - being aware of infringement and preventing people from ending it is illegal.

Yeah, so do I and I RUN up half mile hills, so call me tubby all you want you're still weaker and more out of shape.
That means you're more out of shape than I am at 195, deal with it and get in shape, don't assume a low BMI means you're all good.

Yeah, and then I CERTAINLY wouldn't trust that motherboard.

900 LUNAR years = 75 solar years.
He never said it was a company machine, he said it was a machine he used for work. Big difference.
