I got a threatening letter from Uri's "lawyer" for hosting a video of him on a British hidden camera show. He is seen bending the spoon with his hands when he thought nobody was looking.
The letter is now one of my most prized possession.
It's pretty easy to get transcoding set up for streaming non-WMV formats from your PC. Double-click tversity installer. Double-click ffdshow installer...tada!
Is the voicechat bug in versus. If you join a game in progress you will often experience some combination of not being able to hear your team, them not being able to hear you, or only being able to hear people between games.
Hopefully they patch this soon, it's really aggravating.
Well if it's between getting stuck with a $50 brick of a controller, or a $50 pile of useless dead batteries and/or MS charging kits, I'll go with rechargeable AA batteries.
With that you point out one of the differences between the two systems and you are completely correct about the option. While MS gives you the option of spending immense amounts of money on batteries (note: MS says that using rechargeable AA batteries will void their warranty), I was merely comparing the rechargeable aspect of the two systems as provided by the companies.
Q: How are they going to know if you were using rechargeable batteries?
I've been having similar problems for the last two years or so. I've gotten around 3000 bounced emails dumped into my catchall since this morning and there is no sign of slowing. The waves seem to come every 3-4 weeks and then subside. The worst part of it is that the forged email addresses they have been using to send the spam out with have found their way on to other spammer's lists. Now instead of just getting thousands of bounces every day for a week or so a month, my volume of normal spam has also increased by six or seven times.
It's really frustrating. I can't dump the catchall because over the course of the last ten years I've used too many various addresses on the domain. I try to cope with regularly updated procmail filters, but there's only so much I can do.
Take a look at the conditions in most any country going through an industrial revolution and emerging economy. Take a look at the United States around the turn of the 20th century. Child labor, violent suppression of labor unions, deplorable working conditions, company towns, etc.
It is unreasonable to expect a country to go from an agricultural subsitence society to a modern wonderland overnight. When a large portion of the population is living hand-to-mouth in squallor, some of these "slave labor" jobs probably seem like a decent alternative. As the economy and politics change, the working conditions will.
I'm looking forwards to my first 42 inch HD screen in the next 6 months and I know at least for now (no fanboy here) that my Xbox 360 would be able to deliver those capabilies through HDMI NOW.
One great chronicle of such behavior is the blog Waiter Rant [waiterrant.net], where a server in an upscale New York bistro works constantly with the patrons from hell. I've done a decent amount of customer service, and people get all bent out of shape over the smallest things, many of which we have no control over. We're in a culture of entitlement, and everyone is supposed to receive exactly what they want, when they want it....when they've paid for it.
That's a pretty big leap, in my opinion. I honestly don't mean to be a troll, but the shuttle has more or less proven to be a dangerously unreliable machine.
How safe should strapping yourself to giant rockets and shooting yourself out of the earth's atmosphere be?
Hey to be fair when Internet Explorer was first rolled into windows it won because Netscape sucked at the time.
It's true. The foulness of Communicator is what destroyed Netscape. IE4 was leaps and bounds ahead in the key demographic of "people who don't like horrible browsers."

I just leave my phone and cigs in one pocket, keys, lighters, and change in the other. Do you only have one pocket or something?
Also, holsters are retarded. Phone holsters are never the right solution.
Have you ever seen a game where a dog sidekick added to the experience.
Shinobi: Shadow Dancer.
Ninja dog. Hells yeah.

Plus the original Xbox supported 1080i and 720p. Only the upcoming "Elite" will support 1080 progressive.
All of the 360 models support 1080p over component and VGA. This was added in one of the dashboard updates. All the elite adds is HDMI support.
The best part is the happy children cheering when your shovel blows finally rip the dying pinata open.
Yaaaaay!

It seems like a no brainer.
Slow down, buddy. There's plenty of room to lambast both the PS3 _and_ zonk.
Not really. Everything that came before CD that you have listed was analog. The jump to digital was a fairly large change.

A: They aren't going to know.
I have to disagree. This was one of the worst books (and not just worst sci-fi books) that I have ever had the misfortune to read.

Meh.
And while I've never watched a John Wayne movie
Do you live in a cave?
Wait until we've had a chance to play them all before deciding the fate
of the industry.
How boring would that be?
I'd settle for a Herzog sequel...
You may kiss the bride.

The 360 doesn't have an HDMI port.

You and I both know the only reason HDTV will succeed is because our government mandated it.
Where do you find this crap? The government has mandated digital broadcasts. Not HDTV broadcasts.
That's like getting digital cable and pretending that all your channels are HDTV. You don't do that do you?
Do you?
Oh god, you do.
Penultimate: next to last.
In InternetLand, it means "extra-ultimate."
I'm not sure why.
Zonk referring to a videogame editorial as "not terribly well thought out."
Oh, that's rich!
