I use PS1 similar to how The Great War later became known as World War I, one of those after the fact things.
And thanks for explaining where the term PSX came from. I'm still tempted now to feign surprise at how we missed out on the Playstation 4 through 9 though whenever people continue to refer to the original Playstation as the PSX. Muahahahaha.
I always thought the Yoda fight scene would have been awesome incarnate if they had forgone the CGI Yoda and instead had Frank Oz himself beating the living crappe out of Count Dooku with the Yoda Puppet.
Afterall, the most successful tech company stateside is named after the fruit that caused Man's expulsion from paradise according to the bible.
There are no references within canon Christian or Jewish mythology that identifies what the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil actually was.
Why are the Apple III and the Apple Lisa not on the list? Granted, the Lisa was somewhat the predecessor of the Mac, but it itself was still a failure.
Nice Uniden cordless phone and a cool old touchtone duck phone (picture the phone from the 80s show Silver Spoons) here. That's all the voice comm I need around here.
Slashdot users amaze me. They're experts not just on U.S. law but Canadian law as well!
It's a thing called common sense. Try using it sometime and you will see how liberating it can be. This common sense stuff allows for discussions on any number of topics without having to be fully schooled in the subject and a practitioner in that field. It also allows you to go about your day to day life without having to appeal to some higher authority for permission to engage in most anything you feel like doing that is harmless to all.
It is private property that is open to the public unless you have been specifically banned from there. And for it to be illegal to take pictures inside a mall or any publically accessible but privately owned facility, there need to be signs posted at the entrances clearly stating such a prohibition.
The owner realized the same thing Fox News did -- if you present stories in ways to whip up a fringe zealot audience, you may lose a lot of your audience, but the audience you have comes back a lot and consumes a lot of ads.
Ah. That would explain why I am not seeing any ads. Other people consumed them instead of just looked at them, so there are no more ads.
Pokes are a stupid concept to begin with. Does anybody use a phone to make calls anymore?
I'm one of the few that does. Got a nice cordless phone there in the kitchen, and a cool touchtone duck phone (like I remembered from Silver Spoons) out here in the living room. No cell phone of any type here actually.:)
And as for the patent in question...

They forgot a bunch of captains. Off the top of my head, just from TNG: Captain Montgomery Scott ("Relics", probably only captain by rank) Captain Jellico (I think that's the name; he took over the Enterprise in one episode, was an asshole, and the crew hated him) two briefly-seen captains who Picard calls "Starfleet's finest" in "Conspiracy" the female captain of the Enterprise-C in "Yesterday's Enterprise" the captain of the USS Yamato
Captain Pike is another. He didn't come across as an arrogant asshole from what I can recall, except when he was mentally fighting off the Buttheads of Talos IV.
And how about Captain April? Then again, his only on screen appearance was when he was a retired old fart. And I can't recall whether or not he assumed command when the Enterprise was having whatever crisis it was involved in during that episode.
Captain Spock? Arrogance and assholishness would be totally un-Vulcan.
Since these asshats are the enemy of the people, every time they propose one of these atrocities, those responsible need to be rounded up and sentenced to at a minimum, 1 year in a Dutch Oven.
if they added a windshell that would keep the rain off...
Maybe that's one of the quality issues with the Nano. Damn thing probably isn't even strong enough to keep the rain out. Let's just bring back the Yugo.
Or bring back the Metro. Then I won't be constantly having people trying to make offers to purchase mine from me.
If I was still a smoker and was in a situation where I could be fired for being a tobacco user, I think I would declare my tobacco use to be in honor of Eagle (aka Thunderbird.) And thus, dismissal would be cause for a religious discrimination complaint.
Why not go with the classics? Get him an old TI-99/4a with the Speech Synthesizer and a bunch of educational cartridges for it. Should be pretty cheap to do. And a composite cable should be pretty inexpensive to get a hold of, which can connect to the RCA A/V jacks on whatever video device he would be using it on.
And clean telephones.

Yes, that would work. We can make a world class poet out of Mr. Ballmer yet.
fuck you geek faggots.
Go ahead and continue. You got the format correct for the first line. Now you need to come up with 2 more lines for your entry to be complete.
no kidding, most people cant even remember what the X is OSX is for...
And very few seem to realize that there is no X in either Playstation or Playstation 1 (aka PS1, not to be confused with the IBM PS/1).
I wonder if Le Petomane ever tried smoking a joint (through one of those lengthy cigarette holders of course) or a bong that way?

If you include the Phantom Edit it becomes:
V = IV > VI > III > II > I = Holiday special
How would the above list look if you also toss in Ewoks: Battle for Endor and Caravan of Courage: An Ewok Adventure?
Han: Leia you still got that outfit Jaba put on you? *wink wink*
Leia: Sure I do. *YELL - 3PO - I need my outfit back!!
Han: Um, never mind.
Name something you would not want to see in a Star Wars sequel set 30 to 40 years after Return of the Jedi...
A nekkid gramma!

You shouldn't take pictures if you are unsure of the legality of doing so.
A mall is a pretty public space. So yeah, I think we can be fairly certain of the legality of his photography.

Just imagine a beowolf cluster of these.

So, is this planet in a cloverleaf orbit around all four stars?
Yeah I know. Impossible, but still amusing to imagine.

How long between the last Saturn V carried a human into space and the Shuttle first carried one?
Just trying to add that oh-so-missing item here, perspective...
That would be just a tad over 8 years.
December 6, 1972 - Apollo 17
April 12, 1981 - STS-1
