The sun won't go nova (I think?). It'll just get bigger and burn off the oceans and kill everything in about 3.5 billion years, and eventually'll shrink into a white dwarf. Earth will still be orbiting, and it'll take trillions of years for the white dwarf to cool off.

It obviously depends on whether you own the game/program in the first place- I'd be willing to bet most people who apply them don't, thus they are "cracks".
Nobody would buy Vista if it was, say, only command-line. Ditto if it looked exactly like XP in the ads. What if you bought a Mac that was "Aqua capable" but, upon boot, had a UI similar to Win95?
Jeez, acceleration != force.
I feel a "1g" _force_ standing at sea level (from the earth) but I am not accelerating relative to the earth, because the support force on me by the ground is acting in the opposite direction with equal magnitude.
There's obviously acceleration caused by the sun- acceleration is change in velocity, velocity includes direction, and the earth is orbiting the sun.
Most recent Popular Science has device with some tactile feedback (on the front cover, too). Apparently it can produce a distinct "click" sensation when you press a button.
How about this: http://inventgeek.com/Projects/projectsilver/ A server, harddrive and router stuffed in a UPS. A handy way to hide your data, though of course that won't stop a fire from destroying it.
I wonder how closely depression and negative emotions like outrage, regret, etc are tied together? If I'm unable to be depressed, would I be able to care about what seems to be a series of bad things shaping the world? People I've met on anti-depressants can be pretty non-chalant regarding just about everything, so long as they're on their pills.
I'm on Lexapro (for anxiety, not depression- a lowish dose) and I can attest to the fact that I certainly can feel down about the general crappiness of the world. Indeed, I often do spend too much time listening/reading doom-and-gloom news. I sure as heck feel outrage and regret; I don't feel insulated. Instead, I feel a weight has been lifted: many things I used to be much too anxious anxious about (it's similar to... oh, massive stage fright. All the time.) are now much less of a problem for me.
Conspiracy theories? How about this: the bot-stopper image that showed up (I was logged out before posting) was the word "stress".
But everything we actually see is in the past.
If we don't move in time, then how can one explain how one can "travel to the future" merely by moving-in space- very fast? If that's not time travel to the future, what is?
If I recall correctly from my one year of latin, the latin word for "school" and "game" are identical (ludus).
Being a teenager myself, I am all in favor of ample free time.

"3) There's a hundred years of coal in the US; even if coal has to take up the slack, big deal."
Good luck converting all our vehicles to run off coal.
But everything we actually see is in the past. If we don't move in time, then how can one explain how one can "travel to the future" merely by moving-in space- very fast? If that's not time travel to the future, what is?
Not to mention "consitantly".
