"misplaced faith in the power of inventions to make life easier". PLEASE, WE ARE ON SLASHDOT, NOBODY BUYS THAT BULLSHIT. Technology has absolutely allowed a much more comfortable lifestyle for everyone is the 1st world. Damn, it's so bad we actually have to schedule in walking.
Whatever you say. It's the Russian that will keep the ISS going, and it's the Russians who still carry most of the space bound loads up there. Damn the US doesn't even have a method after the disastrous space shuttle.
How about a $300 gaming PC that fits in your hand capable of 1080p video + wifi + 9xxx Nvidia graphics ?
NVIDIA ION + dual core ATOM - ABSOULTLEY FUCKING AWESOME & CHEAP
I didn't expect or want a rip-off, which this film was since it had verbatim the same effects and action shots and chase sequences of the previous films.
I was hoping for an EVOLUTION, of the genre. One simple method would have been to have a Terminator ARMY, which is what I expected from the WAR. Hence my comparison to Aliens (not T2)
F#$KING HUGE PLOT HOLE ALERT...
How did the Terminators know to look for Kyle Reese ?
I understand they knew to go after John Connor since he is the leader of the resistance. But HOW DID THEY KNOW KARL REESE WAS HIS FATHER SINCE IT HAPPENED IN THE PAST AND ONLY SARAH CONNOR KNEW.
THIS FILM IS BULLSHIT.
Huh, wasn't there mean't to be a dumb ass TIME MACHINE in this ? And the molten terminator for T2.
WHERE WERE ALL THE TERMINATORS ?
They blew up the base and we only had 1 FREAKING TERMINATOR ?
This film was SHIT. MCG could not hold a candle to Cameron. LEARN FROM CAMERON. HE DID AN AMAZING SEQUEL WITH ALIENS. I thought that is what this film would be like, with swarms of cgi Terminator.
WRONG ! LET DOWN, BORING
"Granted, there were lots of special effects in the film, but each had a purpose in the greater scheme of things, and at no point did I get the impression that someone was playing a videogame before my eyes,"
Can someone tell me Why The F@#k was Kirk jettisoned off the Enterprise, How the F#@k he found Spock randomly on an empty planet, How the F@#k scotty invented a faster than light LONG DISTANCE transporter (wouldn't that negate ALL SPACE TRAVEL!), AND WHY ON EARTH WE HAD A DUMB FX DRIVEN MONSTER CHASE (exactly the opposite motivation of what the article states ie. IT WAS PURE EYE CANDY). Don't get me started about THE LENS FLARES IN EVERY SINGLE F#@KING SHOT.
Yeah, walking around viewing everything through your own perspective is SOO over rated.
Personally I now have a camera mounted 2 meters above my head, feeding a headmounted display so I don't have to deal with boring first person perspectives. I wish I could just get rid of perspective all together. Dammit, visual gaming is soo 80's.
Most of the creationist Americans are in the bible belt, far away from the centers of reason and industry ie. California and New York.
Essentially, the creationists are a bunch of mindless robots ready to be manipulated to war whenever they hear the key words 'evil' 'crusade' 'good' etc. This country is a least a 2 tiered society, with the creationists as the unthinking mass of meat that votes in a predictable way and can be manipulated to do almost anything (they believe in Noah's art !)
Much like the record labels of yore Murdoch has not realized that everything has changed except him.
I hope his whole media empire goes down in flames.
I also hope his retarded audience are stupid enough to pay for his bile.
There is NO reason to upgrade.
PURE & SIMPLE.
Microsoft have become SOO FOOLISH.
They already have a killer product (XP) with DEEP MARKET PENETRATION. And what are they doing ? They are trying their hardest to fuck it up.
How about an upgrade to XP with a few bells and whistles like a new interface upgrade, new email program, better anti-virus etc. That is all that is needed, everyone is a winner. But NO, they still haven't learn't anything from Vista, fools.
You have to realize that British Telecom did a lot of advanced research ahead of the internet revolution (adsl), then pissed it all away though INEFFICIENCY and NARROW-SIGHTEDNESS
I guess nothing has changed.
I have a suspicion that a lot of the bot networks are being paid by western sponsors to vote up myspace / facebook / digg pages etc... As well as provide false hit counts for paid banners etc.
Hence providing unique IP addresses for each hit.
Just check out myspace if you want to see a proliferation of indie labels and artists.
Pirate Bay and other mainstream file sharing programs are just that MAINSTREAM.
There are other file sharing tools that focus purely on obscure indie music and genre's. These programs show an entirely different view of music sharing. Almost no one share mainstream pop crap.

Or just run a massively parallel OS and forget about the cpu altogether.
Whatever you say. It's the Russian that will keep the ISS going, and it's the Russians who still carry most of the space bound loads up there. Damn the US doesn't even have a method after the disastrous space shuttle.
Jeez that turd is totally bing'in, it's making me gag.
For $300 you can get a gaming pc that will play Crysis etc. And it will fit in you hand

Wifi won't help when your bowels are backed up after a 8hr flight. I guess you could google map 'nearest toilet', whilst shit creeps down your leg.
Just as I had always expected, U.S. Homeland security are a bunch of dick watchers

Agreed. If your complaining about 1 gb of ram... I think it's you who needs to 'upgrade'.
OSX is god awful and useful only to housewives (not even).

...better able to focus on one thing and filter out distractions AND BE MORE creative.
I would guess a pig with swine flu contracted avian flu.
It turns your immune system on itself. That is why the young and middle aged die, whilst old and very young survive.
