He did. If you read the response from Southwest, you'll see that he normally buys two tickets. He changed his flight time and thus had to rely on standby seating. When the time came, they only had one seat available. The airline made the call that he would require two seats (as he knows and expects, having established a history of buying two seats) and thus there was insufficient seating on the flight to attend him.
... and yet me, a gamer... could handle it very well.
Sure, I might have trouble hitting the target reliably at 100m or beyond, but I know enough that, in such a case, I would make sure I had more than one shot, or much less range. Some gamers actually have guns. Some of those even go to the range and use them!
Now, this is not to nit-pick - but I can see that English is not your primary language.
This tip doesn't seem to get taught to people, but it is a fairly big thing. We don't use "the" on Proper Nouns - individual names such as John or Slashdot.
Example incorrect use: Let's check out the Slashdot. Say hello to the Paul.
Correct use: Let's check out Slashdot. Say hello to Paul.
Next: I'm not sure what the rule is called, but "suck" should either have an "s" on the end, or it should read "does suck". Examples: "Adobe sucks really big." "Adobe does suck really big." (and 'big' is an unusual word for this, sometimes used like this in slang)
You also missed the word order of "But why somebody would post..." - it should read "But why would somebody post..."
Welcome to English - one of the most disorganized, inconsistent, and confusing languages around.
Well, you would certainly have a hot spot. Cramming a wireless transmitter in a SIM card and having any kind of a respectable range, you are going to have a LOT of heat building up in that SIM.
The chipsets in consumer routers get very warm... and that's with the silicon of the chips, shielding, heatsinks etc. In this case, you'll have a tiny microcircuit in a piece of plastic.
I would wonder how it is that Tritium is in the coolant. Unless it's the (primary?) coolant stage that's leaking, in which yes - fixing it is a bitch because the coolant is otherwise very hot and radioactive.
If you've got tritium in your (secondary?) coolant stage, you've got bigger issues.
True, but if that happens it's lost. You can't reclaim it, or recycle it. It doesn't get converted into other compounds through various processes. It gets blown into space and eventually orbital mechanics coalesces it into a ring or an orbital body recollects it.
The hard part is keeping the oxygen there. Between the lack of a respectable magnetic field and lower gravity, most of the atmosphere will just spin off and/or get blown away by solar radiation.
... and what if one wasn't using shitty equipment? What about digital content? When I press "Render" there certainly isn't a lowest-bidder CCD sensor involved.
Easy enough to do. I could shove a WRT54GL board into something, and it can provide an access point while at the same time connecting to another. It's not gonna happen with stock firmware, but hell... if you're after this, that's not gonna bother you.
Or, you could even just throw two in and bridge them. One serves, one connects.

I've had a subscription bought for me... someone took a comment of mine to heart.
Can't exactly have someone sign you up for twitter now can you?
... sounds like a perfectly civil and proper response to an incident that has been blown completely out of control.
If this is indeed the truth, Kevin Smith has some 'splaining to do.
... and further, some people are just assholes. Notably, the AC *parents of this post.
>> Bikers have concealed melee wepons or small arms; gamers don't.
Stupid-ass assumption to make. (regarding "gamers don't")

I'm pretty sure the cost he was considering is purely hardware... especially given the context of the rest of the comment.
Read before reply, please.

How are they going to deal with heat?
That might not be a bad idea... /me calls for a Boston CD Party!
I think you mean HTO.

Yet gbrainy (which supposedly requires mono) was added.
Hmm.
MKV is a container. OGG is container. H.264 is a codec.
Basket vs Fruit.
You think that will stop people?
I for one, don't mind a little civil disobedience.

Wasteful.

Either way, a specialist I wouldn't have expected to find on slashdot came around and slapped me :)
That said, we were heavy duty - nothing but cut, dress, and wrap.
Nothing is as satisfying as running a full-size turkey through a bandsaw. By satisfying, I mean disturbing.

Even better, EvilDude can actually know what he's doing and broadcast in 'master' mode. No ad-hoc nonsense required.

Damn. I thought working in a meat shop was good, and I get bested by a damn fish-cutter :P
Certificate Authority. Dur.
tl;dr
Ooooh, how did that feel? You spent all that time and effort writing that up, only to find out we don't give a shit.
