Yes, but it also matters how you do it. In this case it raises the ticket price for everyone, as the old price included a meal but the new price doesn't. Those who choose to pay extra for a meal now get more expensive tickets, while those who pay the old price get less value. So in essence it's a veiled price hike, which is supposed to make the airline more competitive.
The Lore is huge, there's a definite focus on NPC interaction, and they don't railroad you around. If you don't want to complete the main quest, well fine! Don't.
Instead of getting railroaded around on the main quest I can get railroaded around on smaller quests. Yay.
It was fun while it lasted, for some reason all the good studios seem to get bought up or go bankrupt. The end result is usually the same in both cases.
Of course, if you think any of that copying is acceptable, then that kinda means you have to also accept that Disney's business practices are in any way "acceptable".
And why wouldn't they be acceptable? I don't really see what's wrong with taking old stories and animating them. There's lots of good reasons to hate them (they are the poster-child of the oppressive copyright regime after all), but "copying" just isn't it.
Where do we get that radioactive material in the first place?;)
It's a bit like claiming that the world will drown if we build a huge machine that pumps water from the oceans. Mankind hasn't really added anything to the earth except some moon rocks, everything else is just moving stuff around. If there was enough uranium on earth to fill it with nuclear waste, it would already glow in the dark.
Basically we are betting the safety of the planet on the assumption that future generations will find tech to render radiation harmless AND that this tech won't be used to enslave people (in a polluted world the ones with that tech decide who lives and who doesn't).
I nominate this sentence for the hyperbole of the month award. It's a bit like the Nobel peace prize, only more prestigious.
Except perhaps for MS Windows. Ever tried hunting for drivers? It would definitely be a headache to install windows with a vanilla Windows installation CD... (instead of the vendor supplied recovery disks that includes all the drivers etc.)
Perhaps this would motivate hardware manufacturers to improve their drivers, and make sure that the drivers in windows update stay up to date. It could also bring about better standards, and reduce driver bloat. WTF HP printer drivers are hundreds of megs I will never know, and a future where their bloat doesn't come pre-installed with computers would not be bad.
You're wrong on that account. Thanks to this $30 million reward I spent 10 minutes thinking about new methods of launching a probe to space. The world is now a better place.:)
I guess we'll have to chalk this up to me being more optimistic. Only time will tell if anything comes out of this competition.
Be that as it may, there is now a $30 million reward where there previously was none. I fail to see how this can do anything else but spur some development in the field.;)

Three snipers have you in their scopes. Put the parentheses down before someone gets hurt.
The GP might have meant dog years, you anthropocentric clod!
A portal gun in ep3 would be cool.

As he is obviously joking.
Mass Effect and Dragon Age at the moment.

Don't patch until there is a working hack for the new patch. And yes, a new hack will always surface.
Don't tell Dr. Jones about this.
The example isn't a photo, but I don't think it's inconceivable to apply similar techniques on blurred photographs.
In Soviet Russia, left hand is always right!
Lies! Windows ME runs exactly as designed!
Too bad it was designed by left-handed monkeys on crack.
When did the Orz start posting on slashdot?

2 TB should be enough for everybody!
Maybe that means the drug trade is worth more, but cybercrime bypassed it! Those dastardly hackers!
No, banks make money by lending out more money than they have.
And maybe this technique could be used on living cockroaches as well, the ramifications would be enormous.
