The ticket sales were only poor in comparison to a blockbuster hit. For a movie that would have seen absolutely DISMAL ticket sales without the hype, it did pretty friggin well. It's already pulled more than it's production budget, unlike Serenity even though S was a vastly superior movie. Sure as hell made a lot more money than it would have were it badged Pacific Flight 121. Not to mention that there's all the merch sales and DVD release.
Um, the reason that the 360 isn't using HD-DVD is because MS wanted to get a jump on the console market and the tech wasn't ready yet. If they had released the 360 this year, it would probably come with HD-DVD standard. As for not using the space, one of the first games to come out for the PS3 will use 22 gigs. Programming rapidly scales with the amount of space available.
Or, given that I've always heard it said in an extremely sarcastic tone, it could just mean the opposite of what is being said. Maybe, just a SMALL possibility?
Actually, except for the second to last, all of those are true.
Car - For general purposes, aftermarket venues like AMG, Ruf, Mopar, etc... Can be considered custom built outlets. Think of it as having a friend build your computer for you and charging for his time.
Home - The more closely you supervise the work and participate in the build of the house, the more likely you are to be happy with the final product, especially if you make sure they use higher qulity materials.
Furniture - Custom built furniture is generally better than standard furniture, albeit more expensive.
Clothing - All of the finest suits dresses shoes etc... are custom built.
Wristwatch - See clothing
Television - Um, TV is a standardized medium. This means that something either meets a standard or doesn't.
Consciously distinguish, but when you have twitch gamed long enough your responses are no longer conscious, and in fact higher refresh rates do allow for better reaction time. OTOH, for anything other than certain FPS's and combat flight sims, you are correct about the uselessness of a refresh rate faster than 60-85.
True, they are persians. But then the arab muslims came in and through quite a bit of slaughter forcibly converted everyone to islam. Oddly enough, most of the mullas are arab too.
Ah, the fount of infinite wisdom that is/., A stupid idiot who wouldn't understand foreign affairs if they bit him in the ass opines, and someone opines out just how fucking stupid his idea is and the grandparent is modded fucking insightful, while the parent is modded troll. Tell your to Angkor Wat value added, and see how they respond.
Oh, that's right, it was Bush who rigged the iranian elections which kicked out the only actual reformers to have a "runoff" election with the batshit now in power and the "moderate" opponent and not the mullahs. Damn, it's all just one big rovian plot isn't it?
Except, you know, Israel, who will take steps when they think the iranians are getting close enough to having their own nukes. And by take steps I mean turn Iran into a glass sheet. Because at that poin it will be too late for anything else.
If they came to this decision only by the fact that a full erase program was used somewhere on the HD, and that at one point she had a p2p program on her comp, I fail to see how the judge could sanction such a decision. If, however, she attempted to wipe the entire HD, then yes it's the correct decision. Of course, this is why you should regularly use such an erase program for all of your deleting needs, as then they have no legal grounds for a default decision like this.
Basically they are bullshit studies which while they measure the percentage of 'violence' in a game don't measure any effect said 'violence' has. As such, the journo is correct in noting that the study is useless for the purpose that the congessional panels were convened.
How about the fact that any place that has mandated gun ownership by the populace has some of the lowest crime rates in the world. See Israel, Switzerland, and Kennesaw, Georgia. The state not the country.
They didn't this isn't a case where they knew exactly where the danger was coming from, this was a case of making sure they knew exactly what the problem was before replacing it. Unlike sayyy, ford who actually calculated legal costs when selling the Pinto Fireball.

But can you competently use chopsticks?
And if that happens, the code should 'accidentally' be released on the net.

Unless you're jewish, or bhuddist, or ba'hai, or... Oh I'm sorry, did my acts get in the way of your catty comment?
XP was a genuine improvement to the common user. Vista really isn't.
Pretty often in the bio sciences actually. Or pink.

Lockpicking will always work, as it literally simulates a key. It can be made more difficult, but it will always be possible.
True, but ATI's windows drivers suck as well.
No, the smart kid will short out the GPS unit.
Thank you ralph nader.
But everyone knows goldfish are made of pyrite.
Which means they can learn, not that they don't have the short-term memory of a burnt out lightbulb. Two completely different things.

Ah, but the 360 is the strung out crack whore hidden in the corner missing two teeth and soliciting anything that moves for sex.
