Technically I think I was supposed to go to every nerv platform, but I'm with you. Java isn't the magic bullet it was meant to be so many years ago, but it does do better than most things in being cross platform./Real programmers don't write in anything less portable than a number two pencil
In addition to the war dialer, all the little hacks he pulled were actually based on real vulnerabilities. Unscrewing the handset and shorting it to ground really would give you a dialtone on some pay phones in that time period.
You suspect that Snape will be leading the OotP or whatever they end up calling the Anti-Voldemort coalition? I think Snape was doing Dumbledore's bidding as well, but I find it highly unlikely that Snape is seen as anything but a bad guy until the end (and even then, maybe post-mortem).
Yes, because Microsoft's Windows support is such a sterling example of quality, I can see where companies would have to be literally fended off with dead chickens from taking this deal.
Ya know, if you buy a stolen Corvette, the legal purchaser of that Corvette has last their car.
If I download music that someone copied, the person I copied it from still has it. If I wasn't going to buy it anyway, no resource was consumed except electricity and bandwidth.
Really, because reading (and rereading) the original post, it looks like the author has confused javascript and java, which many people do quite frequently.
It's probably best to avoid the term "applet" when referencing the Java and javascript languages unless you are actually referring to a "java applet", in order to avoid sounding like an idiot (even if you arn't one).
I'm not going to disagree that virtual reality is a money pit, but giving the VirtualBoy as an example of why is misleading. The virtualboy was a steaming pile of poop.
I'm betting on augmented reality as the way things will go.
The difference between a scientist and a high priest is that anyone, ANYONE can become a scientist. You don't have to have the word "scientist" on your business card to examine your surroundings, to apply scientific principles to information you receive, and to develop and test theories about your world.
Science is a process, not a school subject, and anyone who applies it is a "scientist".

At this point, it'll either be shit, or it will be sentient.

Java?

Yes, I've always liked Sneakers, and found it to be realistic (except for the plot point, of course).
Did we read the same book?

I got the chime to change colors and that's it. The door never opened.

Just to let you know, I really like the phrase "corporate disobedience"

what is this "blast in the Egyptian desert" you speak of?
my favorite part of that DOT.org page is the "No Parking" signs listed as "Reduced Speed Ahead"
I was disappointed that there wasn't a Win 3.1x contingent. Someone has got to still be running it.
and cancer is caused by DNA mutations?
I'm interested in what you have to say and would like to subscribe to your news letter.
Actually, I'm just looking for a cite I can give to my friend who swears by dvorak.
That IS scary. We don't need a Linux schism.
I'm pretty sure preventing someone from yelling fire in a theater isn't censorship.
just curious...
if it was rare, how was it the most played map? Or was it your most played map?
I really liked Doom multiplayer back in the day. What was the map like?
yadda yadda 640k of ram yadda yadda
We have 4 and 8 GB flash chips the size of my thumbnail.
We'll have pocket pcs with 2 GB of ram soon.
I'd say the odd choice was for Jackson and Walsh to produce this.
It all boils down to taking consumer money. Not that it's to be unexpected. That should be the goal of every profit-seeking company.
