Doing SotC would be DIFFICULT. For one, barely any dialogue. The main character says pretty much NOTHING, and the only other dialogue you get is at the end of the game.
It would be pure art direction and many hardcore battle scenes. Not many would go for that, honestly.
You cannot shut down LIMEWIRE. Shutting down limewire does NOTHING to stop the free version (Frostwire) from being used to access the Gnutella network.
There you go. I'm actually waiting for the manufacturer to be able to do the entire package in a customized color blend so I can provide a fully-functional horticultural light in a single ultra-small package.

Apple's implementation is going to be better? Let you see 100 people at once? Be fast enough to use for sign language?
How about being at my Australian test site and having to give live updates to my UK partners? I'll guarantee you the shed won't have internet but it'll have cell service.
I think you seriously underestimate the usefulness of video conferencing.
"Things tend to do that pesky burn up on re-entry thing."
Aerogels are ungodly insulating and resistant to heat. I've seen a piece just a few millimeters thick keep a crayon from melting with a blowtorch heating up the aerogel.
It's a type of glass, just like the ceramic heat shielding tiles used on space shuttles.
"How many cultures are you aware of in which complete nudity was acceptable?"
That's the argument.
YOU CAN GO FULLY NAKED IN JAPAN IF YOUR ENTIRE BODY IS COVERED WITH TATTOOS.
Argument over, PERIOD. There are other cultures that allow it as well. You're horribly ignorant of history or even today's cultures if you think full nudity isn't still accepted in SOME part of the world.
The Japanese consider tattooing across the entire body as a form of clothing. Sweden, women go topless all the time. Hell, we just had a case in the USA where a woman sued for the right to garden topless AND WON.

It's apparent YOU never have.

Sue the plugin maker for false advertising, then.
"When you buy and/or install Windows, you explicitly (although in very small print) give Microsoft permission to do exactly this, as far as I recall;"
No EULA may contradict the Unauthorized Access of a Computer laws we have.
Microsoft is breaking the law and they need to pay for it, PERIOD.
Call Microsoft and threaten to sue for unauthorized modifications of programs on your computer.
Watch how fast you get it fixed.
It's more related to complete combustion more than anything else. Next big issue is burning oil in the fuel mixture.
Let me pour some H2SO4 on you then, since you claim to not be sensitive to chemicals.
"No serious company is replacing trained and experienced IT professionals with "MCSE" kids. None."
You're telling a huge lie. I can name SEVERAL IT places that hire cheap MSCE kids. Hell, the kids don't even need an MSCE.
I'm looking at you, Solectron and Flextronics.
The Dig should be number one for George Lucas to try out.

"Then they end with a quote about how the biggest difference between BIOS and EFI is that EFI is written in C? How would that have any relevance?"
The EFI will likely be much more easy to compromise, rootkit, and use to PWN someone's system.
"That's where manufacturers lock up the hardware and prevent you from being able to fix it or work on it."
Umm, failure to think ahead, much? What makes you think they STILL won't lock things down?

What a bunch of fools.
With how extensible the new firmware is, I must wonder what sort of security holes we'll be seeing due to it.
I can get single-chip multi-emitter Quantum Well LEDs all day long at 100w, all single-package.
I mean, look at my signature. I do *WAY* more than just that with LED, that just happens to be what I chose to do professionally.

It's a shame you seem to be the only one with half a clue in this entire conversation.
I can easily tell you haven't used camfrog.

I DON'T THINK SO.
Gee, video calling isn't useful?

Oh, and we have NUDE BEACHES, fool.
You're citing an article from 2006?
Try again, I have family that works in this and they use frangible bullets.
"It's illegal for me to go out in public naked."
Nude Beaches, look them up sometime.

Do you pay attention to the news?
"You do realize that there's a difference between having a webcam sitting on top of your monitor and sending live video from your phone, right?"
Hey, look, my netbook has a camera. OH SHIT SO DOES MY PSP.
Apple is doing NOTHING new.
"Not to mention that Apple's version of it will probably be about as simple as making a phone call."
Never used Camfrog, I see. Sign up for a username, browse chat room list. It's that simple.
Also, the video speed is so good deaf people use the program for VRS.
I've seen Apple's implementations of prior video chats - THEY UNIVERSALLY SUCK.
The ones in the PS/2 IBM servers were bigger than that, my friend.
With an astonishing 256KB of RAM.
