Mod this up. McCain was the last Republican I supported. The machine knocking down McCain was some of the dirtiest tricks every in a campaign. Including saying that McCain gave up information to the communists when he was held hostage. Well he wasn't partying in Texas in the National Guard. Voting for Kerry this time. 90% of the parent post was wack but the part about party leaders installing the candidates is true. Dean was crazy but John Edwards was a better candidate and had more popular support. Some how Kerry wins?? Bush is going to start another war with Iran if we don't vote his ass out. The Bush administration is already starting the chatter like they did on Iraq in early 2001.
Nah MNF is back with John Madden. He is not as good as he once was but I'll take Madden ramblings over Dennis Miller's obscure reference jokes any day. Al Michaels is once of the best sports announcers of all time. Last year on MNF they actually had relevant match-ups. The produces got smart and decided not to bet on a few teams doing well and got a wide variety of games. (Still won't see Arizona or Cincinnati:-) )
I am just guessing from reading the article but it seems that PHP5 isn't really OOP. More like VB6 when they added things called "classes" but it still wasn't OOP. VB6 just had a bunch of crap for marketing to say it was OOP. It wasn't until the complete re-write of VB.NET Microsoft really had OOP. Seems like PHP5 is doing the same thing and adding something called a "class" but doesn't have any other features of OOP. I know everyone seems to have there own definition of OOP but PHP5 seems to be off by a lot.
No helicoptors suck when your NVA becuase there isn't a good way to shoot it down. The viet-cong have the anti-aircraft missiles to balance it out. Trying to shoot it down with a machine gun is impossible when the spinning helicopter is camping the spawn. Plus when 75% of your team is waiting around for a stupid helicopter it really sucks. Yeah I can fly a helicopter but I am not waiting around to get killed by my own team member to fly the stupid thing.
SWAT3 would randomly generate where the bad guys were. They would start at 3 or 4 predetermined locations. It always kept you looking out in different directions. That was a good game.
They should rid the online world of microphones. I turn it off during counter-strike. 99.99% of what is said has nothing to do with the game. Can't understand what they say in that high pitch pre-puberty speech anyway.
I am PS2 fanboy but the PS3 should have a power switch in the front. I understand you can hold down the power button to turn it off from the front but it never really seems "off" unless you turn it off from the back. Maybe its all in my head but everyone I know turns it off from the back.
There's an easy way to remain free of cheaters in online games. Make friends and then play with them. Not only will you be reasonably certain there's no cheating going on, but you'll probably enjoy the experience more regardless.
I agree!! People who don't want to deal with cheaters should form their own Internet where everybody agrees not to cheat. That way it won't interfere with my freedom to cheat. I also enjoy yelling curse words at people at Wal-Mart. Those people that complain about me cursing at them should go and make their own Wal-Mart. Why does Wal-Mart have the right to say I can't curse at people at Wal-Mart?? That's how I enjoy my Wal-Mart experience. Who says they have the right to take that away???
Intel is probably saving more money than making on overclockers. All of those chips that are returned after someone burns them out oveclocking is costing Intel money.
I think the study was very interesting. I actually thought that price drops happen a lot later. It would be interesting to repeat the collection of data mid-year. Are the price drops around early January due to a 30 day drop or because its after Christmas??
Its kinda like doing a study of Christmas trees and discovering a 95% drop in January.:-)
I only have 3 of PS1 games never owning a PS1 but I play Family Fued for PS1 all the time. My wife and friends totally dig it. I just wish they would make a PS2 version, not for better graphics but to get rid of the most annoying person in the world, Louie Anderson. Louie Anderson is so unbelievably creepy. When he does his dance at the end, you can almost imagine him gyrating on his house boy.
After reading the clueless replies above, I have to respond as a guy who plays in at least 3 FFL a year.
The model they are trying is simply not going to work. $100 or $10 per person isn't going to fly. They should either try the Yahoo model, free to play charge for premium services, or like fanball, start for free then start charging per year. I don't see how the synergy between Madden is going to work. I play Madden. I never go to the Madden website. How would I see that a FFL is even offered. Why would I switch? The Fantasy Football market is huge. I put in at least $100 a year into it. (Guides, website fees, & prize pot) But they are just too late to market.
The orginal Outrun rocks. It is great on the GBA. A lot easier too. (No gamemboy shaking when going off road.) The music is still there and rocks!! Magical Sound Machine is my favoite. (Almost Miami Sound Machine)
BTW: If you take the left most routes its harder. Right will be a lot easier.
Oracle licenses (at least for the database) are not nearly as expensive as everyone thinks.
Yeah but you need to factor in the management cost of Oracle. As you stated it is a complicated product. You need some serious experience/training when managing an Oracle instance. SQL Server (no M$ fan here) is cheaper because management is dumbed down to items on a menu.
As an Oracle consultant, I am sure you do well because developers like me need you to do the config stuff. When on a SQL server project I can just do all the config stuff myself. On an Oracle project the database is locked down for only an Oracle DBA to change. So every change involves finding the DBA. (Usually on a golf course.) This adds costs to the project.
Yeah for a really big implementation Oracle/DB2 is the only way to go. But for so many projects it was like: "Only 20 people are using the system???" Often times it is better because they have Oracle resources and licenses already but it could've been done in less time and save time/money with maintenance costs with SQL Server or MySQL.
The article doesn't say what IM protocol it would use. I would buy it if the fee per month was low and it supported MSN and AOL. (Yeah you have to use both IMs these days.) It shoule be easier than trying to IM on your phone.
Rush N' Attack was hard. It sucked your quarters because it looked easy. You kept saying to your self I can master this but the control was hard to knife the guards at the right moment. The jumping over the dogs to kill the guard at the end of the 2nd level was really hard. Got to the 3rd level once.
I actually did start with C, PASCAL, and assembler. Didn't learn C++ until junior year after switching to business info systems. (Wierd the business had C++ and computer science had C.) It was a lot harder to learn OOP after being corrupted by functional programming. I got an "A" despite not really understanding OOP (it was a business course) but I didn't really get OOP until I got in the real world.

Blame your co-worker. Seems to work at the companies I work at. Here are people to blame:

I thought it said "bipolar" and it was robot that thought it could fly like Richard Gere in Mr. Jones.

No its because 666.6666 rounds to 667.

Given that there are almost 2 decent XBox-only games on the market, it's not that big of a deal. Right?
Yes they should just make it backwards compatible with the two good games.
Halo - Just bundle a ported version with the XBOX2.
Dead Or Alive Beach Volleyball - Including a slideshow of naked women would replace this game.

but I don't see how it would be possible to emulate a P3 700 class CPU on a 1.xGHz processor of a completely different archecture
Not as hard a avoiding a lawsuit from NVIDIA.
(I didn't have a PS1 since I was a diehard PC gamer until I got married.)
:-(
Hey I undestand that. Nothing sucks like getting out of Quake 3 so the wife can check Ebay.

Ahh the joy of making fun of nerds. You should switch to posting on jockdot.

Only problem with that phone is it easily broke and sounded horrible. But it was nice a small.
