Well, the gameplay was somewhat simple, true, but the puzzle pieces of the background story of Na Pali, the Nali prophecies, the diaries of the fellow prisoners, Skaarj as the enemies, good music, that all added up.
It was no Half Life or System Shock 2, but it was not Quake 2 either, so I still think you give Unreal less credit in the gameplay area than it deserves. After Doom, Duke Nukem 3d or Quake it was a fresh breath of air and even allowed you to proceed at your own pace, discovering the place, instead of just running around and shooting.
Well, actually the first Unreal was not bad at all. Beautiful landscapes with a lot of mood (back then coming out of that prison ship and seeing Na Pali for the first time was breathtaking).
The density of uranium is irrelevant because (and this is what most people seem not to understand) uranium is not mined in its pure form ready to be used in the reactor. If it were, it would have reached critical mass long ago. Pitchblende (which itself is not as abundand as coal) is mined and has to be refined further to extract natural uranium from it, which is a pretty complicated process. Uranium content of pitchblende is quite low.
Oh, it is not like uranium does not have to be mined, mind you. It just magically appears there in the fuel pellet state in the close proximity of the reactor.
Well, over here, after an initial drop, the restaurant business became actually better after the anti-smoke laws because people (like me for example) who previously opted to stay at home due to the tobacco smoke harassment actually started eating out.
No value is not really a valid description, sometimes the value of the people on your list is negative. I mean, take a look at the ongoing banking crisis. The people that are responsible for it were supposed to be experts on their respective fields.
Looks like someone has got no idea what "socialist" actually is. Stock options for the complete staff at some startups may be the closest thing you've got.
Property is a pure government constuct. All land belonged to the commons in first place and became owned either by shameless acquiris quodcumquae rapis, or by military conquest.

Then the strange aeon started before I was born.

Just saying.

Two, actually. Sigma SD9, Sigma SD14.
Which, incidentally, would make a Lada out of Toyota.

just think think what a single ground to air missile could accomplish - almost as good a start as 100 lawyers at the bottom of the ocean.
And what does it have to do with country size? The same extremes do exist in tiny countries.
There is always a contract, only with this one the minimum duration is one month instead of two years.
Who are you anyway to speak for reality? Don't be ridiculous, especially with that religious signature of yours.
Well, EU thinks I do have a right to be forgotten, and I think it sort of overrules your opinion on it.
Well, standard Pascal is obsolete, no argument about it. But that is true for any language from the sixties.
By the way, if I remember correctly, there are generic types in modern Pascal dialects like Delphi or Free Pascal.
Dude, 70ies are over, you are not writing software on a teletype. There is nothing wrong with verbosity.
And no, the languages you have listed are not particularily difficult to write code in, the only difficult thing to do is writing ugly hacks.
So basically your wife was part of the problem and you are complaining here? Hypocrisy much?
Indiana Jones 4 totally subverts both parts of this rule.
Exactly. Besides, Motorola has shipped their smartwatch for a over a year, and Google owns Motorola now.
I don't know, the already released Motorola MotoActv is something I'd very much like to have.

Don't underestimate the greed of some people.

No, there isn't. Evil is as evil does.
