I hear it works much better than the old rectal lie detectors from the 1970s, and light years beyond the foot based scanners from the 50s. At least they are moving in the right direction, although Wonder Woman's magic rope is still the standard to beat.
Maybe the guys who make Brain Age for the Nintendo DS can write the software interface.
I wonder how many there are like me who started renting games due to so many disappointing releases. Gamefly has saved me far more than it costs with games I might have bought and wound up not enjoying. I've been buying more used games as well. And I'm not even suffering to any real extent from the current economy. It's purely the result of too many "Holy crap, I spent $60 on this turd?" reactions.
It's still not bad, especially for new games. I commonly get a game two days after release for only $50 because someone bought it and returned it. It's in perfect condition and I save $10. The local store thrives, salaries are paid, sales taxes are collected. What's the downside again? And then I sell it back for $20 if I finish the game fast enough.;-) Total cost $30 and no waiting for it to hit the bargain bin.
Anyone watch the "Helvetica" documentary? Will the web become the new battleground for the modernists versus post modernists? Must millions more die on the bloody altar of typographic expression versus clarity of presentation? Peace, my brothers and sisters of the glyphic arts. We should not fight, for we must unite and stand against the common enemy to us all: Comic Sans MS.
4. It elevates all commands, even the most little used, to equal status, thus kicking the concept of multiple, user customizable toolbars right in the nads.
Take an idea that has been around for years and try to claim ownership. Seriously, getting the cold water up from the depths to sap storms of their energy is an old idea. Everything from pumps to nuclear weapons have been proposed.
Is it really fair to compare map-reading to calligraphy and roof-thatching? I remember learning map reading in the first grade. It's hardly on the same order of skill level as the other two. Many of the nav systems show you a map or maplike display, so it's not completely gone. Just not seeing the problem here. What about Google maps? Everyone I know uses that, even the ones with nav systems. They want to see where they are going.
I got through college in the 1980s with an Atari 800XL. Action! was the first programming language ever did anything interesting in, including two games- a vertical scroller and a side scroller. I remember side scrollers being harder because of the way the video memory was setup, or something. You had to do things in the video blank interval.
For classes, though, I also had QuickBASIC, Deep Blue C, Kyan Pascal and versions of Forth and FORTRAN. It was amazing how many languages were available for those things. I could write initial code at home before heading to the (always crowded) computer lab to enter the final version to be submitted for a grade.

what's the irish word... for Sharia?
Arsed.
or swap RIAA for say your grandmother.
Great! So I can put the RIAA in an old folks home and get power of attorney over them?

Bob and Alice? Wait... shouldn't there be some encryption going on in there? ;-)

Huh. Did they have a contest to come up with the most Orwellian sounding name? Are they a section of the Department Of Bureaus? :)
Oh, go to hell.
Wow! You really do need help. I wish you well in solving your emotional issues.
Why so hostile? Calm down. Keep warm. Don't cry. Christmas is near.
VHDL for FPGAs and Verilog for ASICs. This rule applies everywhere except where it doesn't.

I thought *all* market analysis was done by 15 year olds, except when they look at Apple products. Then they use the 12 year old.
Well, I hope for me it can recognize the sound of hot lingerie models having screaming orgasms! Heh heh heh!
No, not really. :-( Pretty much just silence here.
So soon I might be breathing other people's second hand fat? Thanks! :-P

I heard they repainted that bathroom. You know, the scary one.
Nah, I think I'll live, and live quite well, just to annoy you. :-)

[bleep] I feel old now. :-(
No wireless. Less space than a nomad. Lame.
No, no. This one will be user controlled, you see. :-)
In related news, Apple announced the next iPhone model will have a self destruct mode.
And people made *that* comment way before you posted yours. Stay calm and keep warm. Don't panic!
