Most of those third party sales on the 360 are emulated games or game remakes from older consoles or ports. As far as ACTUAL UNIQUE third-party games designed specifically for each console, Nintendo has Microsoft BEATEN solidly in the third-party maker section as far as games actually designed for the console, and not just emulated or ported.
Catch can, use can opener to remove lid, which incidentally is now very sharp, and chuck both can AND sharp lid at you.
A ninja uses everything at his disposal.
And at 50 feet, I'd bet more on the can opener hitting. 50 feet is a lot of room to dodge a heavy object. That light can opener can be flung with much more force and at greater speeds than either gold or the can.
Don't believe me, come cook out with me and my stepbrother sometime. Something will get launched back and forth, one way or another, it always happens. Knives, spatulas, can openers, cans of beans or gravy or stew, forks, spoons, pots, pans, bottles of cooking oil, and we chuck them at each other, kinda like a 'see who screws up first' contest.
Too bad I'm about 2000 miles away from him, now. Guess I'll have to invent a railgun for salt shakers to cover that distance.
See, first you have to buy the game, then you have to pay monthly fees to play.
Now Microsoft is dipping their greedy fucking hands into the money pot and they want to be able to charge and make money by forcing gamers on the 360 to use the Live service, forcing gamers to pay even more.
Pure and simple someone needs to wipe out the XBOX Live servers and the entire service, and force M$ into playing nice with everyone else. Wii and PS3 allow free online gameplay, which is why I own them and not any M$ console.
Expired copyright? Please tell me why FujiTV is getting an 80-episode remake started then which starts airing in September? Wouldn't seem like copyright has expired at all considering it's in production for a new run this year.
To Davy Jone's Locker. They ran out of money for the show (spent too much on making action figures that didn't sell, plus video games on two or three consoles.)
Anyone sophisticated enough to include a rootkit better be sophisticated enough to wipe out the possibility of a byte-for-byte diff scan to detect the virus or MP3 files.
"What stops the trojan from statically linking an mp3 encoder? Or just downloading a dynamic library if there are size constraints?"
If such a thing were actively found and reported it would be the end of that company, and with ebay still holding stake in it at this moment I don't think they could afford a country-wide lawsuit with every person using a computer involved.
Same way EA couldn't stand up to my DRM lawsuit for Spore. I managed to get a huge enough backlash to occur in and out of court that they buckled under.
Umm, yea. It's not like anything you're trying to hide is really a big secret.
Because anybody with half a brain and prerequisite knowledge would know something you're trying to not talk about already exists. From there's it's just a matter of simple deduction.
Oh, you must be talking about what replaced the old Cray-based network traffic sniffers, teh ones that would key into detected words like bomb and terror or assassinate.
First computers used base 10 because we counted in base 10 and it thus made sense to do it as such. We moved to base 2 because it was actually EASIER (especially in matrix multiplication.)
The whole concept of 1K=1024 came about because we write in block sizes of 256 or 512 bytes (usually) and since we can't get EXACTLY 1000 bytes due to the nature of file systems and current technology (hell former technology) 1K was used as the approximation.
Plain and simple, a BYTE, eight BITS, is STILL BINARY. Doesn't matter how it's STORED, it's still either a representation of a grouping of ones and zeroes, and thus it should remain STATED IN BINARY.
It doesn't magically change into base-10 while we're sitting around.
"Name an industry that can produce 1 million new, high-paying jobs over the next three years, challenges BusinessWeek. You can't, because there isn't one."
Bullshit. If the government would destroy the monopoly that power companies and telecoms have, I could start about four or five new businesses within said industries that could produce a million jobs within the first three WEEKS, assuming the USA actually had the equipment and hardware.
Plain and simple it's corporate greed killing our economy. Kill the corporations or we're going to be doomed, it's that simple.
That proves how out of touch with reality YOU are.
The Toronto Blue Jays (A Canadian team) have played in the World Series and in fact are the first and only outside country to actually win a World Series championship. They are part of the Eastern division of the MLB. It may have been named after "The World" but it still includes teams from outside the USA, just not so much after the Montreal Expos moved to DC.
That's right. It's a computer. Even on the hard drive, it uses either a stored one or a zero for information. EVEN ON THE SURFACE anybody with *HALF* a clue understands that base 2 is THE measurement for a computer. People that do not understand this should be removed from their computers and the internet as a whole, and sent to special classes.
"Computer science should get with the rest of the world in how things are measured and quanitifed and stop doing so with its own special language understood by those well versed in the field unless that language uses words and terms clearly different from the standard ones."
You want to make the same statement for chemistry or the English language?
Try again. It has its own special language because it works in a special way, and only in that way. You don't see a physicist complaining there's not enough bits in the sky to see, why would you measure computer information as stars?
Computers have used base 2 since the 40s/50s, therefore base 2 is the standard.
You design a computer that works entirely in base 10 and you can define the standard. In this case, due to the nature of computers, they use base 2. If people can't deal with that, they probably shouldn't be using a computer in the first place.
Network gaming is the same across ALL platforms - the TCP/IP stack is the only way this works, they can't change anything about it unless they developed a new networking technology that would work atop of the existing infrastructure. The only differences are your degree of control and customization that you can have through the GUI.
UT3 for PS3/PC works just fine with each other online. I ue a keyboard and mouse with my PS3 version as the developers were smart enough to add that degree of control customization.
1. Greed. Lock-in artificially separates you from your friends, forcing you to buy what they buy if you want to play. Pay-to-play online things like GFWL and LIVE! bleed the customer of money. 2. Control. Microsoft has fucked their console by fucking up the standards. You have to use a specially-signed Microsoft bluetooth stack. The PS3 does not and adheres to standards. 3. Because they are clueless. No explanation needed for this one.
So what we have here is a group of companies that are willing to screw with your social interactions with your friends. Doesn't sound like a company you want to do business with, does it?

It's not SB County's fault. SB has had some bad budget cuts recently. I learned a couple of weeks ago that if I *REALLY* wanted to all it would take is a fully-loaded glock.40 to take out the ENTIRE active police force in SB and Redlands. Redlands only has a total of 4 cops working at any given time, SB only has about 8. Assuming I have a double-stack 15 round magazine for the Glock.40, one shot one kill is all it takes.
You probably haven't gotten a DC yet because of the budget cuts. Just keep pressing them for it.

Make me a Corona bottle that'll tweet to the net every time I crack one of its bretheren open.
Corona Bottle is watching brother number 4 get picked and his cap pried off with brute force.
I wonder how many people would like that kind of comment?

"I want some examples of how Disney is detrimental to the child/parent relationship. And I want examples of how Disney undermines basic human values."
Disney is a thieving corporation that stole stories from other countries and made them their own.
Kimba the White Lion, for example.
Also, many Disney movies actively encourage kids to disobey their parents. The Little Mermaid, for example.
Disney is the enemy.

Nothing new there, shit I've got stock in that.
The phrase 'over two decades' implies more than 20 years.
Who's the idiot, again?

"How often do you _really_ mean 1024 when you say 1K?"
Every day. But then again I've been at this for over two decades, so it's rather hard-wired into my brain.
"will that 40 GB really just be gobbled up by the OS?"
Give them about four or five more years, your answer will be a resounding 'yes.'
Computers have used base 2 since the 40s/50s, therefore base 2 is the standard.
You design a computer that works entirely in base 10 and you can define the standard. In this case, due to the nature of computers, they use base 2. If people can't deal with that, they probably shouldn't be using a computer in the first place.
1024 is NOT arbitrary.
http://www.sharpened.net/helpcenter/answer.php?40
Because computers work in powers of 2.
The SI definition is made. Marketing is bullshit, always has been always will be.
You build a computer that works in base 10 instead of base 2 and then you can call it arbitrary.
