You could spend 2 billion dollars shielding something, or you could spend $144 an hour paying ~20 people minimum wage to sit on myspace, irc, and twitter all day and space them around your complex.
I wonder if it'd work to revamp the CG on B5 with modern tech and full-battles instead of the 90's era "same 3 scenes" style battles and then re-release it as a new show.
Since there's no production cost other than redoing the graphics they can probably afford to weather through the first season or two's soap opera in space setup before Sheridan starts making it all better.
Unless you liked hearing about the latest Fucktoquadillion gigastream of pure hexashitrillic energy the borg were beaming at voyager's past timestream in order to attract the hirogen to hunt them and the leprosy dudes to steal their organs.
No I mean refreshforce to force my screen to run at it's proper 85hz instead of the opengl game's forced 60hz, and vsync controls the game's framerate by syncing the display of frames to your monitor's refresh rate, not the other way around. I've run with vsync before, it helps with tearing but it does not force your refresh rate to 60hz.
As much as I'd like to see *nix do better I hate openGL with a fiery passion. I'll grant that the generally lower performance and responsiveness is almost guaranteed to be the developers fault rather than opengl... but requiring me to go get a third party application purely to keep my monitor from being forced to 60hz every damn time I boot up the game pisses me off.

It still leaves a lot to be desired in terms of reliability and user-friendliness. Turnaround times alone make steam a hassle at times, just because I remember how quickly I could go from playing TFC to Pirates Vikings and Knights in the old WON clients, and I tended to register FAR more servers for the list than the ~200-500 tops I get now.
I like to think the lack of response is more because most people on the internet find it difficult to give a damn about someone being vaguely mean in washington after being exposed to bored Btards.
Part of the problem is that your argument, while coated in honey, is still basically just as trollish and insulting as someone calling me a babykiller and leaving it at that. From the first word you work from the assumption that you are undeniably right and that all facts are on your side and everyone who doesnt agree with you is conveniently easily mistaken.
Your entire post is literally one very large and very polite sounding ad hominem.
Huh, got me and most of the MSM on the umbilical blood but that some people have found a use for ""nonviable"" embyos does not automatically mean that ALL of them will ALWAYS be saved and it's still better to put them by default to some use and then pull them out of that for embryo adoption than by default to throwing them away and pulling them out of THAT for embry adoption.
Nice attempt but aside from the non-embryo sources of embryonic cells you're also arguing for respecting one establishment of religion's views over the rest, arguing that both fertility treatments and deriving benefit from what would otherwise be wasted is evil, AND inconsistently with your OWN logic arguing that it's also evil to try to derive some good from something you consider evil and thus work against the evilness of it.

It wouldn't look exactly the same anyway, and a few things could stand a little improvement.
Sorry, I thought that was what the dudes with the breathing ships used to move around in the universe filled with snot.
Except that the acting was done for 4:3, so you have large 16:X shots with 3-4 people standing right next to each other in the middle.

Nemesis and Enterprise vs Voyager.
I can't even think of a joke that doesn't involve sodomy.

War is peace, etc... we know.
Nonetheless I still think he'd be miffed that they're taking his works as instruction manuals rather than warnings.
Onward with the torches then, I can't think of any reason to force a monitor to the lowest refresh rate.

That says it all really.

Think of it as not feeding the trolls.
DAMN!
In my defense I claim severe sleep deprivation.
I heard you on the wireless back in Fifty Two
Lying awake intent at tuning in on you.
If I was young it didn't stop you coming through.
They took the credit for your second symphony.
Rewritten by machine and new technology,
and now I understand the problems you can see.
Tin foil is on aisle 3.
3/10, try harder with the straw man you've almost got the hang of it.
no you made a politely worded argument that, while politely worded, is nonetheless patronising and demeaning.
Ad hominem doesn't necessarily mean blunt.
Of course it's scientific and not religious, and intelligent design is too.

In other words: everything?
