The interpretation of the meaning of "Jew" is heavily dependent on the population of people you're talking to. Many here in my local area are culturally Jewish but not so much religious, while people in a nearby town take the meaning to be religious.
In essence, different people have different conceptions of the meaning of "Jew".
That's absurd. There's plenty of journalists who call out Israel in the US, and still have their jobs - particularly when Israel resumed the construction of settlements recently.
First, who do you think is viable for a 2012 Republican bid that isn't working for Fox other than Mitt Romney? They pay Sarah Palin, Newt Gingrich, Rick Santorum, and Mike Huckabee - literally everyone GOP other than Romney that is a major candidate for 2012 who isn't currently an office holder.
Second, did you forget that after the 2008 election, Sarah Palin, Mike Huckabee, and Karl Rove all joined Fox as regular contributors? You know, McCain's VP, the guy 2nd in the primary race, and the guy who orchestrated the previous 8 years of the Republican Era.
Maybe it's because none of the above are unbiased, but all except Fox do nothing more than spew talking points constantly and have every Republican candidates on the payroll as hosts and advisers. How many Republican presidential and vice presidential candidates from the 2008 election are employed by Fox? (Here's a hint: nearly every single one) Now how many Democratic candidates are employed by all of the rest of the stations you listed combined? (Here's another hint: none)
Just for reference, I have no problems with me being genetically superior to you because I can look at facts and use my brain in a manner not consistent with party doctrine, but I'm not going to be the one to say it. I'll leave that up to you. Or, rather, you already said it.
Maybe because Fox News is the De Facto communications wing of the Republican party. You know, if there were no association and they were actually remotely fair and balanced, there wouldn't be so many people mentioning them when it comes to politics.
Considering that Media Matters isn't about creating misinformation, but rather about debunking misinformation perpetrated by others, I think there's at least a bit of a difference.
Yeah, I saw that. I couldn't care less though; 2x GTX 280 in SLI means max everything, which Ultra does completely automatically minus resolution haha.
You talk like the "free market" means "no regulation or other interference", rather than "customers' ability to choose which products to buy and where to buy them thereby fostering competition and creativity". Adam Smith knew (and he specifically wrote about this that the "free market" would be totally overrun by a monolithic monopoly given sufficient time, and that's the direction we're headed in given the current attitudes in this country about the definition of "free market" (ineptly called such rather than the "competitive market" in the era of soundbites). He argued for action against both large corporations and their supportive governments in order to keep the system working correctly. In the case of the US, I see the need to continue in some areas (the Fed and monetary policy), while changing some other areas heavily (the present state of near non-regulation of large companies).
The worst part about it is that there's a scene within like 1/2 hour of the beginning of the game that has like 12 NPCs, so it should be super obvious to anyone doing a play-through during testing.
We also know that CEOs are infallible, always getting it right. The few that don't get it right don't ever get multimillion dollar severance bonuses, and they never get rehired as a CEO.
Which is suppose to be done so we can get higher framerates and more stuff onscreen on the same hardware(which is a good thing).
If you played the game, you'd see there's a gigantic bug that happens when too many NPCs (more than 2) are on the screen at the same time, and gets exponentially worse with each additional NPC. They fucked up tons of previously working elements of the engine.
Another flaw in your logic: CEOs haven't gotten more productive relative to the workers. If anything, workers have gotten more productive relative to CEOs. What has happened, however, is that CEOs and their upper management friends have worked to take a larger share of the money coming in to the organization - at the expense of the average worker.
CEOs would still do just fine with 40x an average worker wage. If you estimate an average worker at 25k [high for WalMart, low for average company], the CEO is making a million a year - damn substantial income. They just won't take that as a legitimate answer, since they want more money, no matter what the cost to other people in the organization.
There's a flaw in that logic when the discrepancy between the average CEO pay and the average worker pay has changed 100 fold, since CEOs used to do just fine making only 40x what the workers made while their marginal tax rate (at the top bracket) was 91% instead of the current 36%.
You're picking Intel's most expensive chip to try and prove a point, and failing horribly. Intel has a $279.99 offering on Newegg that beatsthelivingshitout of the AMD processor for things normal people do on their home computers, and is damn close in the rest. Oh, and it uses far less power both at idle and at load. (Tom's didn't have power numbers for the i7-860).
Now, you might have a point about code "not being optimized for AMD blahblahblah", but here's a newsflash: Not only do the testing suites use libraries compiled with the Intel compiler, but so do nearly all the programs a home user runs on a normal basis. That means the argument is moot, because your average person doesn't give a shit what compiler Microsoft decided to use, and the ones who do can't just go "oh, let's use the AMD-optimized binaries!" - Intel performs better for the same price and lower wattage on real-world applications for this reason, period.
Because I don't care that AMD gives the same performance (sometimes, under specific circumstances) for 3/4 the cost (according to you). If I can't sit in the same room as the thing, I'm not going to be able to use its performance anyway. A real comparison between the AMD PhenomII X6 is the i7-860 (4 core with HT), which is $4 more and beats the pants off of it with far less energy consumption, so I don't know how you arrived at your pricing figures unless you went with sale prices TBH.
Intel isn't dropping PCIe support except on the Atom chip line. I don't give a shit what they do to Atom's PCIe bus, since I'm not going to put a GTX480 or any other expansion card in one of those netbook systems anyway.

They have no jurisdiction when outside of the border, so I'm gonna say only within the border.
All that really need to be done is a clarification of "series hybrid" and "parallel hybrid".

Not witchcraft. Cult leading.
Try moving to Verizon or Sprint.
You can't even purchase a SIM card from half the major (nationwide) providers.
They were from different countries.

Awesome! Thanks a bunch!

Can you please elaborate on WHICH DLL, and WHICH directory, for those of us still suffering (me)? lol

You'd tell the difference if you had bad airflow in the room. Those AMD chips run super hot per performance unit compared to Intel.
