It says something that the closest thing to an "honest" review is butting right up against being a new application of Poe's Law.
I also think there's room for concern when you see things like the metacritic page for Farcry2 where the "critic" rating is overwhelmingly positive with 26 positive reviews, 8 mixed, and none negative... while the user reviews are 275 positive to 271 negative with 105 mixed.
It's the most blatantly lopsided set of reviews I've seen so far.
I've spoken with grad students, and doctors of various fields. Most of them tend to be quite well spoken and can convey their meaning with negligible marketspeak and only use jargon where no common word is proper. Ten minutes talking with them conveys more information in a more readily understandable form than an hour with anyone that says "feasibility of the usage paradigm" when they mean "usability of the concept".
The difference between marketspeak and jargon is that marketspeak uses large words and phrases to cover a lack of information while jargon uses different words and phrases to compact information more precisely into less space.
A) The two aren't mutually exclusive, look up the definition of benign. Also consider yoghurt. Active, and benign. It's not malicious or harmful, but it's an active culture.
b) Now you're being pedantic
c) that i'll agree on, unlesss they mean that it doesnt need us to add any and it's using it's own charge or something
Look as often as I like to tell both of those jokes, it IS a problem to dump OUR shit in the ocean. Everything that's already there is more or less self-balancing, but when we start just dumping tons of shit in there we cause problems that us to come and fix them.
Maybe you should read it first before, again, trying to be a smartass on the internet:
As the Supreme Court notes in Saenz v Roe, 98-97 (1999), the Constitution does not contain the word "travel" in any context, let alone an explicit right to travel (except for members of Congress, who are guaranteed the right to travel to and from Congress). The presumed right to travel, however, is firmly established in U.S. law and precedent. In U.S. v Guest, 383 U.S. 745 (1966), the Court noted, "It is a right that has been firmly established and repeatedly recognized." In fact, in Shapiro v Thompson, 394 U.S. 618 (1969), Justice Stewart noted in a concurring opinion that "it is a right broadly assertable against private interference as well as governmental action. Like the right of association,... it is a virtually unconditional personal right, guaranteed by the Constitution to us all." It is interesting to note that the Articles of Confederation had an explicit right to travel; it is now thought that the right is so fundamental that the Framers may have thought it unnecessary to include it in the Constitution or the Bill of Rights.
And those 4 brown pixels might be more brown pixels or they might be a sniper 300 meters away. That little blip might just be some bloom or it might have been a tank firing at you from the horizon...
Maybe in the old 99 games where maps may as well have been flat colored boxes of various sizes for all they mattered, but with games like Battlefield and especially Bad Company it's getting pretty important to be aware of things.

That's ridiculous. There wasn't enough walking back and forth to be a Castlevania game.
I hated when they added the windows key given that most games back then relied on Ctrl and Alt for their primary controls.
Damn I haven't seen something that looked that laminated since the last time I played Doom 3
So it can, I guess that definition got handed off to Jingoism.
I don't think chauvinist is the word you want unless you're implying that women are not, by default, native english speakers...

Well religion's still an issue here in the states, even though the rest of the first world is more or less getting over it.
Two major issues: Religion, and Star Trek.

What do you think fish do in the ocean?
Or they blame the difference on piracy and just start suing people.
Your stating that "the rest is conjecture from the tard that wrote the site" proves you didn't read it.

Your position falls apart pretty fast if you actually try to apply it to the real world instead of as a smartass remark on the internet.
Well lets start with landmines, most people would consider one of those pretty important to notice.
For 150K less than him I'll shit on your doorstep. For only 100K less than him I'll shit on someone else's.

That sounds more like a training failure on the military's part tbh, unless of course hunters are out there looking for a 12 point IED.
Link? I'm skeptical because any gamer that's got tunnel vision and is bad at spotting "out of place" things would be TERRIBLE at almost every FPS.
Magnificent.
Which is also the free-pass on getting out of the requirement of consideration, which tends to prevent blatantly and absurdly one-sided contracts.
