Movies can be played from these memory cards and several easy-to-use utilities exist for ripping DVDs and encoding into MPEG-4 at the PSP's 480x272 resolution.
Five hours later, your 110-minute movie is ready to watch. It's so easy!
Not only does Microsoft not restrict their own users to unprivileged accounts, but their Director of Internal Security has no qualms about stating that in an interview for the press?

One begins to wonder if term limits might have been a good idea after all.
They aren't. California has term limits on its state assembly and believe me, it's worse. Our hobbyist legislature can't get anything done so the Governator tries to legislate by statewide referendum. The only thing worse than term limits is direct democracy on every niggling detail of state business, and term limits basically turned California into a giant direct democracy which does just that. In the modern world this translates into government by TV commercials.
Let us have our professional legilsators back! They may have been corrupt, but at least they knew what they were supposed to be doing.
This isn't a case of rampant government censorship...
You're right. It's a case of selective government censorship, which is arguably worse and less constitutionally sound than the rampant kind that applies to everyone.
I don't think you can really claim that your base model of a human couldn't have non removable underwear built into the model.
The texture for the unclothed female model in Oblivion does have a bra over the chest. The mod in question switches the textures for the male chest, which has no bar, to the female model, thereby giving it a bare chest (and some weird shading). Nobody included bare female chest textures in this game. This is a monumentally stupid non-issue.
Oh? Do tell. Do tell. I have worked on large multiplayer game systems and large transactional web systems, so I am as qualified as anyone to discuss this.
Tell me, what's the biggest difference between a MMOG architechture and a transactional web architecture?
The fact of the matter is that Blizzard is running one of the single largest scale applications in the world period.
Bullshit. The NYSE is far larger, and so is your regional ATM network. eBay is way bigger. Fortune 500 companies run datacenters with much more computing nodes.
Blizzard's main problem is that they are trying to run one of the cheapest large-scale applications ever.
No matter how much experience you think you have, all the rules change when you cross certain thresholds, and even if you're a really good enterprise architect, unless you have a single data-drive heavily-transactional application with many millions of users, and many billions of records, you don't know what they're going through.
I do. They're cheaping out. That's the basic problem. The service should cost over $50/person/month if it were to deliver the performance customers expect. Blizzard has 85% uptime because that's what they budgeted for.:shrug:
Did clicking the box take longer than typing SUDO?
Yes. It has to. My hand has to move over to the mouse, move the mouse cursor to the dialog, and click. My hands are already on the keyboard when working in a terminal program, so I do not need to interrupt my task to tell the computer it's OK. It takes a couple seconds longer to confirm via mouse than with keyboard, for sure.
Fry's has greeters. At the exit. Checking your receipts. Because you know people walk out of there all the time with refrigerators they didn't pay for.
They haven't humped the 70's dry yet. We got our "Poseidon Adventure" remake, but what about a new "Towering Inferno?" Imagine the box office draw if OJ were to reprise his role.
And no 70's dry-humping would be complete without a remake of "Jaws."
Is there any way to get the RSS feed for Slashdot to honor your settings for which numbnut editor you don't want to see articles from? I keep getting ambushed by ScuttleMonkey's asshattery when I follow links from the RSS feed.
I'm no fan of the US president. But it irritates me to see the personality attacks instead of substantive policy attacks.
Bush is famous for his malaprops. This is part of his character, his public persona. He makes these bizarre sentence construction errors all the time. There are other weird turns of phrase in that speech, like one where he used the word "nanotechnology" three times in a sentence, where other people would have used "it" after the first mention. But this one takes the cake. It's funny, laugh!
So he's only claiming the funding of research for ingredients that would eventually be used in the iPod.
No, the words he used come out claiming that the research was funded solely with the intent to develop the iPod. That's what makes this particular Bushism so amusing. Of course I don't think Bush meant that, that's what a malapropism is. Bush is a veritable fountain of them, and this one's a goody.

Who then is Sony hoping to sell the PS3 to?
Blu-Ray fanboiz.
Well then just bend over if you like it so much. Sheesh. Not that there's anything wrong with that.
They need to hire fluffers. I'll do the interviews.
If the designer actually exists, yes it just might.

Wow. What a bizarre UI. Most everywhere else in Firefox, to get rid of something you right click and remove it using the context menu.
Thanks for the tip.

I don't like the search box in Firefox. Google is my home page, so it's superfluous. How do I get rid of the search box entirely? Switch to IE7?
