Oh, so now you need ten games? Last month everyone was crying "Name three exclusives!" Some people are just looking for things to complain about.
To be honest, the OP is flamebait: "Since nobody is actually playing games on the system."
Making a generalized statement like that is asking for trouble. Meanwhile, I happen to be enjoying my PS3 as I don't plan on buying any Microsoft product for many years to come. I can tell you however that I do have 10 games (13 if you count the PSN downloads, and probably about 20 demos). Some are not exclusive, but as I stated earlier, you won't find me buying a console that has the potential to overheat and red-ring, has "peripheral money pit" written all over it and makes it's living on Halo.
Sometimes the editors miss the important stuff and post links to sites with less than meaningful content. If the actual data behind the story is more informative, then yes. Seriously. I wish some other sites had that kind of feature. I hate clicking through four sites just to get to the source of the information because someone wants to get hits.
You lambaste him for misusing a word and in the same post you use a word that isn't even in the Dictionary? (Yay) Not to mention you never capitalized "It's" as the first word of your sentence.
S-ex (S1 no naughties/S2 rear naughties/S3 front naughties/S4 You betcha, it's porn) D-rugs (D1 OTC(tobacco?)/D2 Prescrip/D3 "intro drugs" MJ/D4 Anyone order a meth-lab? Cocaine?) G-un Violence (G1 War, History, no blood/G2 Blood, no impact shots/G3 body parts/G4 chunks) C-omedy (C1 Mickey Mouse/C2 someone actually funny/C3 mild language/C4 Bob Saget)...etc.
I know. It looks a bit complicated. But think of the store shelves. Start high rated at the top and work down to the kid stuff.
Of course the ratings panel would be "S2-D4-G2-C2-..." but they could get stylish with it.
...or on the roof of every house, barn, factories, schools, malls, canopies over parking lots, south facing walls of skyscrapers, etc.
What needs to be done is get the efficiency of panels up so that the rooftop of your house will be enough to power your house, charge the batteries and maybe supply the "grid." The grid would have to change though so that power going out or in is monitored and billed appropriately to entice homeowners to supply more power than they need. Those supplying more would get a nice fat check every month for helping supply their neighbor's power.
Well, unless your positive that your local energy company is nuclear, solar, hydroelectric, thermal, or wind power... then your computer runs on gas, oil, or coal.
But if you have two points of Earth in it's rotation and one point of star you should be able to triangulate the distance. So tracking one star should be enough to give you a guess. I assume they picked multiple stars to get an average for all bodies in question. I actually would have been interested to run the photos (or radio information as is the case) and the progression information from about every month for the six month rotation through a program to compare stars movement and form an average on more than a couple stars.
Actually, is anyone recording star positions and comparing them on a regular basis? I don't mean single bodies like this, but having Hubble and/or other telescopes capture images at increments and store the point information. What would be interesting to me would be to build up a sort of 3D image of the visible solar system around us using that data.
Nah, the site is grossly over complicated. I actually searched the forum for that bit of info. I, like you, can't find jack squat on the official site.
I'm pretty sure the 64-Bit files are on the Install CD. I read that it will install a 64-Bit client if you have a 64-Bit processor and you have to override it on install if you want the 32-Bit. Though, I don't know if that's only on the DVD version.

Microsoft would never do that, just look at DirectX...oh shoot, you might be right.
Wouldn't the judgments have to "Extinguish" first?
I thought they were for porn and warez?
No no, your thinking about Excel.
I'm sorry, I haven't read the latest marketi... sorry, tech doc on .NET and how wonderful it is.
Oh man! What am I going to do with all my whores now?
If your hobbies are not entertainment, you need new hobbies.

The kid's gotta learn sometime!

Yeah, it's better that they charge you more for less features then let you add on the features you really want with more money!
New ratings:
...etc.

Whoa now... as an American, I have to say that your "God" didn't give me anything. My ancestors fought for my rights. Nothing was ever just given.
Did you seriously post that JUST to bash on the Sony/PS3?
Well, unless your positive that your local energy company is nuclear, solar, hydroelectric, thermal, or wind power... then your computer runs on gas, oil, or coal.
...but my memory does have a heat sink. Well, they are heat spreaders, but it's a similar concept. Move the hot to the cold.

Pfft.. they measure things here in America on Football fields, Empire State Buildings and Statues of Liberty.
I wish I hadn't commented on this story yet. I definitely would have dropped a mod point on that post... :)
Are you blaming people for astroturfing by stalking them? I don't know who to support.
What if my work is compiling my software... :(
