1920 horizontal pixels times 1080 vertical pixels times 32 bit color depth times 24 frames per seond (for a television) equals 1,592,524,800 bits per second. 99.4725% compression seems pretty good to me. Perhaps someone could respond to this if they have any corrections or explanations?
...why don't they bid against each other for it? Then the winner pays a price they thought was worth it, and the loser gets more money than they viewed the island as being worth.
Duse, you do know that China is a multi-thousand year old country, don't you? Duse, you do know that comparing a country to "itself" even fifty years ago has little meaning, don't you?
You could get even condoms from the nurses office (which, by the way, kills the mood).
But when you use the condoms in the nurse's office, with the nurse, does that kill the mood? *covers eyes to avoid reading that the nurse was fat, hairy, covered in sentient boils, and a tranny*
It's never moral, according to the government. In reality, there is no absolute and correct point at which to start using violence against an evil (isn't that redundant?) government. It's not like at 79.9% taxes and loss of liberty you shouldn't start bombing buildings, but at 80% a revolution-is-morally-good switch is automagically flipped. The real switch is in each individual; when they feel too oppressed (therefore, governments try to make sure that most people don't feel it too much) to do anything but wither (most people) or fight back.
On October 28, 1955, shortly after 9:00 p.m., William Henry Gates III was born. He was born into a family with a rich history in business, politics, and community service. His great-grandfather had been a state legislator and mayor, his grandfather was the vice president of a national bank, and his father was a prominent lawyer. [Wallace, 1992, p. 8-9] Early on in life, it was apparent that Bill Gates inherited the ambition, intelligence, and competitive spirit that had helped his progenitors rise to the top in their chosen professions. In elementary school he quickly surpassed all of his peer's abilities in nearly all subjects, especially math and science. His parents recognized his intelligence and decided to enroll him in Lakeside, a private school known for its intense academic environment. This decision had far reaching effects on Bill Gates's life. For at Lakeside, Bill Gates was first introduced to computers.http://ei.cs.vt.edu/~history/Gates.Mirick.html
Another site said that he was already wealthy from his inheritance, and yet another said that DOS cost him $50,000 (which would be more today). He was already upper class. The fact is, it's easier to go from $X million to $46 billion than from hillbilly to even $4.6 million. So what I meant was that Bill Gates is not truly, in my opinion, a self-made billionaire, at least not nearly on the order of those from a true middle or lower class family. It's just much easier to "jump on the next big thing" (what Bill Gates did) when you have real capital than when you have little or none. Therefore, I didn't think he fit in the list of "new money" billionaires the great greandparent stated, unless money only refers to a billion dollars or more.
Okay, why was it modded troll to say that I believe the government favors gaining GDP over having its citizens better off? Does everyone suddenly believe that politicians actually try to help us?
Too bad for you I said many, not all. There are also many women that don't care much about the state of female characters in video games, or even about video games in general.
China. It had the potential to dominate its much weaker neighbors for many, large spans of time, but instead it seemed to prefer peace and culture (to some extent, anyway (IANA historian)). I can't speak (either way) for the People's Republic of China, though.

Didn't we get BSOD during the time Microsoft was a monopoly?

I'm weeping blood now.
You didn't need to justify it any further than "I...am making more money".

At least that's better than calling it Reagan's member.

I'm sure you meant a large wooden penguin, with apples for wheels, and the face of Natalie Portman.

I'm going to do something rarely done on Slashdot -- admit I'm wrong.
*head explodes*

Yeah. They really fucked themselves in the ass.
Well, there is this thing called a 'radio' It lets you play music for free. Sweet eh?
Correction: it lets you play commercials for free. Sweet!!!
Also, I believe the Daedalus was using the ZPM it was delivering for a large power boost.

He meant pinnacle.

Bill Gates did inherit a bit o' money, you know...
I, for one, welcome our new MicroChinese overlords.
This is exactly what I've always thought; the government favors any monopoly that brings in foreign money, even if it hurts its citizens.

Now that I think about it, you staple it off. That way you don't have to worry about it getting hard because of all the blood loss.
So, what will your characters do with the 2.5 feet of the phallus that won't fit in their left trouser leg?
You fold it back up and tie it off. Jeez!!!
