This disdain seems especially ironic these days, now that the capitalist West is proving that it can produce gulags and a 1984 surveillance society much more efficiently than the those nasty old Soviets. 8^)
Are you sure its more efficient? Just because the West isn't bankrupt yet doesn't mean it wont become so because of these money gobbling policies.
So we have finally gotten rid of these anti-terror laws... but what about passing pro-terror laws? I wish we could pass some pro-terror laws, instead of just rejecting the anti-terror laws.
Interesting.
I haven't yet seen one of these mythical Wii's (never any in stock). So I don't truly know if the graphics are so terrible.
Also, what is a mature game? Call of Duty is on Wii right? I'm sure that some sort of sword fighting game is on Wii, right?
As a personal thing, I don't need a whole wack of crappy 'mature' games. I need 3 or 4 great games (which could, or could not be 'mature'). Does the Wii lack 'great' games?
Perhaps the Wii's lack of power is stopping games like Oblivion? Man Oblivion would be awesome with the Wii controler... "Total Immersion!"
Are you saying that Wii has 'bad' graphics? Sure they arn't on par with PS3/xBox360, but are they 'bad?'
Do you find yourself playing Wii games and saying "damn these graphics suck!"
So lets see here. If I were a heroin addict, and I was fixing on the job, and they fired me for fixing on the job, I could sue them for 5Million?
Dang, I should become an addict for the big pay day!
Sounds like this guy just has an addiction to not working. Or perhaps he is allergic to work.
It would be easy if/. warned me this was a Dvorak trolling. I propose that all future Dvorak posts be labeled so that I can spend my time reading better stories.
I wouldn't be surprised if Thunder Bay (location of Lakehead U.) had a tiny cell phone population, and therefore hasn't banned cellphones because their use simply isn't visible. It's not a big city, and is a bit out of the way.
I used Netscape from NS 1.0 to 6.0. I tried out 6.0 and it was absolutely terrible. I then tried out IE and it was surprisingly good. I kept using IE till I decided to try out FireFox. I found a speed improvement with FireFox, so I use it now.
The reason I use FireFox over IE is because I find FireFox to actually have a speed improvement.
Thats the biggest reason.
Other reasons like pop-up blocking, image-blocking, and security are nice too.
Not sure if its worth the headache to you though. Sometimes installing plugins doesn't go as smoothly as possible.
Slashdot Mirror
I have a PAN on my LAN in my WAN My name is Stan, and Im the man.
Are you a brute?
Well i think we need more. I just don't have that fear in my belly that makes me spend all my cash, live for today, and ignore my future plans.

I second the motion. All in agreement say *ey capt'in*
That is the revised version. The original was "All your base are belong to us!"
I'm feeling the same way as you. Unfortunately I don't think either one of us will own a Wii any time soon.

Better pr0n of course!
Where do they put said chip? The forehead or the back of the hand?
I know its hard to resist the Dvorak trolling

eg.
Dvorak: IE The Great Microsoft Blunder
I tried to figure it out, but I got a divide by 0 error.
Northern Ontario... put it there.

I disagree with your analogy.
Bob doesn't achieve simply because he 'puts in time.' He achieves because he 'puts in effort.'
I'm not 100% or anything, but I get the impression that WoW is teaching that
'putting in time' > skill > 'putting in effort'
I think that the above equation is 180degrees from reality, in terms of achievement then : effort trumps skill trumps time.
