Then so is eating turkey. Once a year millions of turkeys get slaughtered for a feast. And what have they done to you ? Did they plan to assassinate you ? No it can't. It is a living organism for crying out loud ! What in the world makes you think you have the privilege, oh I'm sorry, the 'right' as you call it, to take the life of an absolutely helpless innocent turkey ?
I'll answer that last one for you... they taste nice ^_^
Chopped it up ? Tolkien might have been the first fantasy writer. but he sure as hell wasn't the best. The story was mediocre (at best) and way too long-threaded. I am GLAD he chopped it up and made it 'wachtable' (and even then, some people considered the movies to be too long-threaded ). I can't imagine the amount of boredom it would have caused for the audiance if he hadn't.
One thing JRR should be severely punished for however is for the ending of the third movie. Half an hour of gay-ness, while the story was long finished. ( I was watching it in the cinema with some relatively devoted LotR fans and even they just had to laugh at the absurdity of the ending).
Coming from a person who probably never made any program that required heavy processing for the models that needed to be displayed... you definitly want the control/navigation thread to be seperate from the thread updating the models. Even though the resulting graphics move choppy, the user won't have the horror of choppy controls.
MMh... I guess I have to use for newline...
anyhoo... after the third try it worked... and apparently 85% of the systems out there are faster then my top-notch gaming rig.
damn... its still as good as new... only 5 years old:S
So I tried it , and it said :
Internet Explorer 6 required
Windows XP Game Advisor requires the use of the Windows 98/ME/2000/XP operating system and the Internet Explorer 6 browser.
So I closed firefox, dusted off my IE6 and tried it again... and whaddayaknow...

Well , thanks for correcting me; There I was , thinking to be the first one ever to make this highly intelligent and innovative joke. Have to try harder I guess. Tough crowd here on Slashdot.
As I read the comments made by mister Allard concerning the development theyput a lot of 'care' in the console... can't wait to see the first B.o.D. during a game...
Doesn't blogger.com have a minimal time inbetween postings from a single ip ? Off course that can be circumvented, but it would be a first step.
And can't google punish the sites being linked to by simply removing them from their search-results alltogether... iaw black list them? If they can do it for China, why not for the common-good ?
"Face it, if the hardware were cheap enough, we could replace McDonald's workers with a very short shell script. And that situation is insulting to McDonald's workers."
The hardware IS cheap enough. I think the only reason why they haven't replaced them is because they wish to maintain a sense of humanism towards their customers. That noone seems to care that these people perform tasks that are so oversimplified that they can easily be replaced by machines seems to worry noone.
Saddest part is that it isn't insulting to McDonald's working; even these over-simplified tasks are sometimes too hard for some of them.
"Look, I'm saying that there are no stronger curse words in Japanese, that "chikushou" is just about as harsh as it gets. In English, to me, that means "fucking christ"."
And people are trying to explain to you that that isn't true. Chikushou is something you mutter when things don't work out the way you wanted and is definitly not the strongest curse word used in japanese.
although I doubted the usefullness of this browser at first, I have to say the search functions, bookmarking methods, tags etc are very nicely intergrated.
The browser has a clear purpose. If you are merely interested in aggregating information from sites, than this might well be your browser.
It kinda feels like an iMac among browsers...in alpha stage then... but a step in the right direction nonetheless.

Hey ... if you have knowledge, you naturally want to become an evil genius. Evil geniuses are cool !
I realise that. It was however the first thought that came to mind. An unresolved trauma I guess ^_^;
that looks ugly. Might not be really scientific criticism, but it reminds me of those old library computer terminals.
I don't believe kids nowadays are dumber than before. However, in contrast with before we are more aware of how dumb they actually are.
yes
I paid money to see that movie damnit ! :P It'd better stop spinning.

wow.... then I have to ask : what is DRM about then ? (/me ducks ...)
maybe its processing is based on an exothermic chemical reaction :P
Energetically speaking, the vortex that forms in these storms is also a natural particle accelerator ...
you can say that again ...
It is more like reading the book while being in the shop and telling your friends that they should do the same... can you consider that stealing ?

I believe this had more to do with the great fire on the london bridge once (used to be packed with houses or something ) ...
are not followed by 'Eureka' , but by "Hey, that's funny" .
You want to get really scared , try playing Alien vs Predator. Note: play it as a marine. When the blips start, the terror begins...

So, the way secure safety has nothing to do with sex. Just don't send any Russians on the 30 month missions.
