The server versions of OS X (as well as AppleShare IP before that) require a product key. Since Apple uses them and obviously believes in them to some degree, I'm guessing that they don't feel it's something they should bother consumers with.
I have two friends (they're roommates) that decided to get the family pack, since it was cheaper than buying two separate copies. If you move in with them, you get a free copy of OS X!
Is this the same splunk that was constantly advertising on slashdot a while back? (maybe they still do, but I finally got around to updating my adblock list)
Someone should make a Donkey Kong clone, only instead of barrels, there are chairs. And well, you can guess who Donkey Kong is...And Mario should be replaced with interchangable sprites, so you can play as whoever's going to be fucking killed that day...

IMHO, you have those numbers backwards. Also, I view music as a creative art form. Only being able to play something that someone else has shown you indicates that you can mimic, but that you can't create on your own. Yes, you need to start somewhere, and that usually is playing songs that already exist [which is why my note at the end of my prior post says that I don't think these closures are a good thing]. However, there comes a time when you should progress past simply rehashing stuff that's already out there and begin making things on your own. Think about it in terms of other art forms, such as painting. If you came across someone who could mimic the greats really well, but couldn't paint something on their own to save their life, would you truly consider them as a good artist? I'd say that technically they were good, but no, they are not an artist--as I consider the creation aspect a large part of being an artist.
I view this as a major win for music fans everywhere. Think about it--the closure of tab sites on the net will result in a reduction in the number of bad cover bands. Either those people will never play music, or they'll be forced to attempt to create their own music. Judging by the talent of most cover bands, I'm guessing it will be the former. End result--less suck in the music world!
[yes, it's a joke. no, i don't think closing tab sites is a good thing.]
Thanks very much. I'll look into it. A friend pointed me to a site that had the various SuperCards (mini and microSD). It's a shame that the microSD SuperCard only works in the DS Lite, since I have a few of those cards laying around (my phone uses them).
The other part is that my cable provider has upped our standard to at least 7megs/700k. Thats way faster then my wireless can handle.
This comment shows where exactly your understanding of bandwidth measurements falls (hint: it's low on the scale). Please explain how 7Mbps is "way faster" than even the paltry 11Mbps that 802.11b offers? (And yes, I'm aware that these are the theoretical peaks for both, and that there is overhead in the various protocols and encryption schemes).
No kidding. Even if it simply involves disabling and re-enabling the WiFi card every few months to get it to properly connect to the basestation, it's too much. Sure, I'll put up with it, but it's far beyond what I'd expect my grandparents to have to go through to ensure that their WiFi works right.

...you can put it in a glass case, you can touch it.
I thought part of the reason for putting it in a glass case was so that it couldn't be touched...

I realize this probably won't matter to you, but read the fine print on the family pack.

There is true wisdom contained within those words. The test is figuring out where...
Doesn't catching "role-acting" terrorists also imply that these people were bad actors?
Is this the one where the demo shows the weiner about to get lopped off?

See, Google is starting to become Evil.
Don't worry. I'm still in the early beta stages. I'll let you know when I've become fully actualized.
Since it's wikipedia, am I allowed to edit the entries before I compress them? ;-)
I would call them a performer. I wouldn't necessarily consider them an "artist."

The site seems to be slow. Anyone got a link to the google cache?
Looks like somebody's never actually seen the show...
Get a brain, moran!
Hahahaha. You're funny. Too bad the first HD-DVD player on the market ran $499...
It sort of matches the 360 (slight curve to one of the sides), which leads me to believe that the final product will probably look like this...

OT, but which DS flash card/boot card set-up would you recommend?

I prefer to call her a sheborg.

And here I thought it was because everyone was always giving you shit for rating everything 8/10...
