Obviously not, he's wondering what the costs for breaking the contracts would be and if they outweigh the cost of continuing development on a project that isn't intended for use.
Probably not but some states representative managed to get their jobs protected until after the election...
The wii uses very similar technology to games like Police 911 Police 911 2 and The Boxing Game. Although the technology used in those 3 games is more similar to the Kinect and PSMove.
Although I must agree that the idea of motion tech was evolutionary, but making it the sole focus of the console was where the actual revolution was not to mention that they were able to offer it at a take home price point.
Yeah cause we all know that all the teabaggers only hate Obama cause he's black [RAAAAAAACE BAAAAIIIITTTT].
I for one am a fiscal conservative, and I was very VERY against Bush's medicare expansion. I was also against his many other fiscally irresponsible spending, although what Obama is doing makes Bush II look like Ronald Regan
Wait which part are we discussing that is Shuttle Derived?
The Heavy lift portion that we need to get out of the Earths Colossal Gravity well or the capsule that sits atop the rocket itself?
Just trying to get it straight how scrapping the work done on the Heavy lift module and related SRBs are bad ideas. Especially if said SRB could easily be adapted due to configuration to plasma based applications in the future.
a Much smaller gravity well on the moon, as then you use significantly less energy to get back up, creating a lunar base of operations would do so much more for the space program than doing anything with mars before then.
Think of it with a 19x smaller gravity well we could use that much less energy on escaping the hole and that much more on getting to say Mars
That 70%* of all statistics are wholly or in part made up
*This number created by taking a sampling of 300 statistical comparisons and then noting that most statistics are based entirely on fiction so multiplying that number by 6
yeah as if some of us don't get most of these features sans the transparency from oh I don't know opera 10 but you know it doesn't have plugins but it now has widgets and jscripts for greasemonkey scripts if you really need site specific and the widgets do external stuff that doesn't have to be site rendering dependant
The piracy would be as with PS emulation that you would need to pirate the console itself. It is not legal to dump or otherwise extricate the OS from a Wii system. Just as it is not legal to mod a system to play backup games.
Just saying a Wii emulator is Pirating the OS of the system. I'm sure there was also a fair bit of Reverse Engineering which again is a shady practice at best, and another form of piracy.
Natch, because they decided to use a third party lobby system on these games there is no longer official support for the online component don't get me wrong though there is still errant venture but that's just a pain and next to no one who owns the game knows of that...
I loved the General Series all the way through my dad and I used to race through the campaigns, another great set of these were the Eastern Front and the likes, yeah TBTS would be awsome to reboot
well to make this blatantly apparent, prove to Activision, As I am pretty sure they hold the rights to the Quest Games now, that KQ, SQ, PQ(That's Police Quest) and Q4G are all games worth making more of. Lets make these companies some money on old style Point and Clicks and show them they are still viable, I know the they just released the KQ and SQ series on Steam and for dirt cheap at that. Maybe just maybe if enough people purchase they will see there is still a market for these types of games, especially when there is no saturation in this market anymore. MISE is checking that out as well so I would say lets put that one on the top sellers list as well so that Lucas Arts continues giving us some pointy clicky love
My 20+ tabs are not useless especially with the change tab mouse gesture, oh well I guess I am still in the minority who realizes that Opera is already a great browser.../Me goes back to using a functional browser that is CRAZY fast...
speaking of setting up a separate server, you know in most consumer broadband contracts that you are "not allowed to run any server" on the network. Most people do anyway, I mean honestly I shouldn't be running a listen game server on my Verizon connection as that is considered a breach of contract... yeah... really...
Actually they are dead wrong... as with anything that has the ability to use an SD card this will probably make the piracy even easier, heck look at the Wii, sure once a month or every two months those that want to use "home brew software" have to update their "Modified Save Game" but everyone knows that there are those out there that are using this to play Pirated games. As for the DSi this just means that now people can cut out the middle man of it being a Passthrough Flash to it being all directly on a Flash Card itself.
The DSi will have a hacked OS within the year I can tell you that because people who manage to get Linux onto a DSi will have a bounty set by the homebrew community...
With opera + no addons I type the address in any browser window and hit Shift+Enter and get a new tab with my address in there...
hmmm... built in functionality instead of having to customize a browser and not needing to add extra bloat...
The "Planet" does not need OUR attention infact exactally the opposite, our country needs our attention. To be perfectly frank our financial mess here in america wouldn't have been nearly as bad if we were focusing on us and not on Somalia and Georgia etc. We need to quit focusing on the world and if other governments want to play here they need to pay((I'm looking at you UN)).
I agree that NASA is a waste of Government((And thus my)) money in the short run, and that it should have been a business project all along.
I understand that we were in a "race for space" and then a "race to the moon" but once that ended it should have become a public sector entity. They would have taken it and started to run with it... I mean look at Virgin Galactic, $1,000,000 per flight, and we all know they won't go live for paying customers until they are sure it is safe. As I'm sure they want as many million dollar passengers as they can possibly get.
As an American as well I truly hope that Obama doesn't get us out of Iraq before they already have us signed on for... which is 2011... oh that's right you probably hadn't heard that...
want proof

ok well now time for me to get my flaming... oh well
Slashdot Mirror
A sniper game that involves hiding in the one place for 2 days straight, for instance, may be realistic, but why would anyone want to play it?
Because that is one of Peter Molyneux's 21 experimental games... And will include a £20,000 sandwich, and a £100,000 bed. http://www.pcgamer.com/2012/06/07/peter-molyneuxs-new-game-curiosity-will-feature-a-50000-dlc-chisel/

Meh that's alright you were just playing mad libs with the op.
mmm cherry picking data from an article that tends to prove your own point incorrect

Also wanting to make sure we are both talking about the same Constellation Program
Sorry but it has to be said....
... Believe me I'm still alive... etc etc...
There's no use crying over every mistake...
Or the healthcare plan that doesn't take effect for nearly a decade...

Pre-Alpha Version of Opera 10.50 works wonderfully as well
