Tim Allen will be delivering it by way of chimney, provided you accept the conditions of the OMGPonyXtreme2009 Professional EULA and assume all responsibilities for said pony (hereafter referred to simply as "the omgpony") upon agreement.
Some people don't understand what they may be getting into, as EA doesn't exactly make the installation of SecuROM public. If you value speaking with your money because you're an informed individual, it would help to inform others who may not be so informed.
I almost bought Spore last night, but decided to hold off for a week. With this news, I likely won't be buying Spore, and will be informing family and friends about the activation limits imposed by EA.
If I were trying to hit the bullseye of a dartboard from 400 million miles with a 400 million dollar tea kettle, I think I'd want and possibly need to over-engineer the tea kettle.
MinWin is internal-only and "won't be productized but it will be the basis for future products," Traut said. But "it's proof there is a really nice little core inside Windows."
I own a DS, but no games for it - the one purpose it serves is as a small, handy digital sketchbook when using Colors! for quick little sketches during the day. A ton smaller than lugging around any laptop with a Wacom tablet or even a regular sketchbook, and the DS Lite's screen is really quite nice for working on - bright, accurate, and responsive.
The question of who pulled the trigger (or turned on the electric drill in the case of many sectarian torture/murders) is irrelevant.
Who's killing and who's dying enables humanity to attribute the status of hero, villain, martyr, and maniac to people. When that doesn't matter, we become something less than human.
One can rewind time and world events ad infinitum to pose rewriting history. Hitler himself once said that had a sniper not aimed six inches to the left, he would've been killed and not his friend in World War I. That was quite possibly the most costly single shot in history, but without knowing the people involved, the atrocities committed, people such as yourself couldn't have such a bleeding heart over such disastrous events. What is history without knowing the people involved and their significance in the events of their time?
As long as politics, public opinion, and personal ties exist, who's doing what and to whom should always matter.
Wasn't too hard, I tried to go at it like a consumer might browsing the physical or online store, with no searching and simply narrowing it by clicking through categories.
Main Page >> Electronics >> Computers >> Desktops
From here, the gPC shows up on the first page if you click "Desktops without monitors", or "See all desktops" followed by clicking on the lowest price range, $150-$250 (I would assume a typical customer would check out this range for the cost if they really wanted something on a budget). Buried, maybe, but no more than Wal-Mart's other products, even the Windows-based computers.
When it comes to US military aircraft in general, they typically last for a long time. "State of the art" might be somewhat of an understatement if such a thing is possible due to crazy amounts of military spending and overall lack of many contesting forces in the skies even over the long term.
The F-15 Strike Eagle rolled out in 1989, same year as the B-2; it remains an advanced "Air Superiority" fighter and it's planned to be in service until 2025.
The F-14 Tomcat was just retired, after 30+ years in service.
The A-10 Thunderbolt II (or "Warthog"), 1977, still in service (brief retirement).
The F-4 Phantom went into production in 1960, ended in 1981, but the "Wild Weasel" variant was used even in the Gulf War. That's over 35 years, the longest of US jet aircraft.
And dipping slightly out of theme, the UH-1 Huey was introduced in 1959. Though the Blackhawk replaced it, they are still occasionally dusted off for missions.
Don't go and say that the copyright holder isn't deprived anything because you wouldn't have bought the material in the first place. You copied the bits, therefore you wanted the bits. You just didn't want to pay for the bits.
Where the situation breaks down is that even though the last two parts may be true, that doesn't make the former false.
while all the cool kids were playing 4 player bond or mario kart...seriously...
Precisely the reason I bought a PlayStation instead of an N64 - I had no shortage of friends to hang out at their house and play Mario Kart, Super Smash Bros, or Goldeneye long into the night (though I was never impressed with Goldeneye, Quake 2 released at roughly the same time and I'll never give up mouse/keyboard control in an FPS). When Metal Gear Solid released, I got to swap consoles with those friends, giving me a chance to sample the N64's single-player games without having to buy my own (Starfox64 was fun as hell). I'd say both consoles definitely delivered as good systems, but they had their own distinct flavor.
The other reason: the N64 had nothing on the PSX for RPGs, a genre I love, and is a reason I would rank the PSX a cut above the N64. When it came to the school nights where we couldn't chuck turtle shells at each other for hours on end, I had quite a lot of game content to play through - Mario Kart didn't hold up so well then. There are still RPGs for the PSX that I haven't gotten to, and several I own have just as high replayability as the N64's "party games"; I think that's as large a strength as the N64's for being a multiplayer system (though to be honest, I think the most hours we racked up in multiplayer fragfesting on a single game was Rogue Trip for the PSX, with a multitap).
The Saturn and Dreamcast will always have a special place of honor for me, a sort of "noncompete" placing. Popular or not, I still rank games from them among my favorites (like Panzer Dragoon and Seaman, respectively).
I think the black headcrabs in Half-Life 2 had a much better noise, that chittery-rattlesnake sound. Pretty similar, too, and they squealed when you shot 'em.:D
That has to be a wholly worse reason than my "presumptuous" assumption. Take a moment to think about your assertion of "not bashing" Microsoft while using a typically derisive play on the company's acronym. Using M$ instead of MS doesn't diminish the number of uses in the paragraphs, nor does putting a vertical line through an S somehow make it easier to read to anyone familiar with the English language; the only way it makes your post more readable is because it's more annoying and each use stands out like a sore thumb in otherwise fine writing (rather presumptuous yourself that you think you know what I thought of you, isn't it? The rest of the post was good, that's why I felt the need to reply).
I like to think Slashdot has a certain level of decorum users try to adhere to, is all. And I was simply trying to be polite about being offtopic.

Making the truth known isn't disinformation.

Besides, it's never lupus.
You sure? FTZDNetA:
MinWin is internal-only and "won't be productized but it will be the basis for future products," Traut said. But "it's proof there is a really nice little core inside Windows."Seems kinda fuzzy from reading that.

I like "Methane Me With Pop" and "Enema Pep With Moth" personally...

And if you define the health of PC gaming by subscriptions as well as sales?

I don't know... would a badger in the cockpit fall under "human error"?

Too little too late for the Asgard. Well, unless we gate through a star... y'know, again...

For anyone wondering a little bit more about the aftermath of Cloverfield, 1-18-08.com has a new picture or two as of the premiere.

Yeah, but it's zero 500 times over!
That has to be one of the most awesome corporate mottos ever.
An author is markedly different from a screenwriter, just as both are from a director.
Damn I wish I hadn't just used the last of my mod points.
