Up until now we have all known that trench-coat ninjas > glitter vampires > eye-liner pirates.
Does this invention change this? Will glitter vampires now be able to overpower both eye-liner pirates and trench-coat ninjas?
Or does the "solar" aspect of these tiny solar cells make them useless, even deadly, to glitter vampires?
This doesn't change anything. Vampires can wear them, but they won't get energy from the sun, only candlelight. It's just like the speaker-laden trench-coats, or pro-football grade eye-liner. Ninjas can't sneak while blaring music, and eye-liner's only half-useful when you're wearing an eye-patch.
Using a computer with just keys could be harsh these days.

He's a congressman in my country's federal legislative branch of government. When I'm talking to a worldwide audience like the internet, he's mine too, even though I don't live in his state and can't vote for him.
From the sounds of it they were at the pinnacle of gaming plenty of times during the 12 year span but simply failed to say "Alright, lets wrap it up". Games rely on three things to sell: visually engaging graphics, engaging story and gameplay.
Four things: visually engaging graphics, engaging story, gameplay, and actually being for sale. Okay, maybe three things; I can overlook poor graphics (I'd gladly buy a good Infocom clone for a dollar).
Honestly how angry can you be if you still have to censor the word fuck?

If you need to push your product by paying another company to force your product to be used, I don't think that says very good things about your product.
I've got some friends that work for Microsoft, and a lot of their social media status updates are about Bing!. The way they're phrased, it's obvious that posting those statuses is "not required, but not discouraged". Astroturfing, paid shills, annoying television commercials, removal of choice, worse search results... these are a few of my least favorite Bing!s.
You can already guess how it turns out. I like flashbacks. I've seen many enjoyable stories where the past of certain characters and events is kept a mystery to slowly tease out over the course of the story. But it's never the primary focus of the story. When you go and make a prequel, dedicating an entire movie to going backwards, it feels like retreading old ground, even if we haven't explicitly seen it. Vader starts off as good guy, falls to evil. We caught the gist from Obi-Wan's exposition. Nothing we saw in the prequels added anything to it whatsoever.
Watching the tragic creation of Vader could have been good theater, but instead we were given a sociopathic child who decided that killing all the other Jedi and becoming a Dark Lord of the Sith was a good plan to save his secret wife. And there wasn't any internal struggle or guilt or grief; it was like a lightswitch. I never guessed at the drivel Lucas fed us, and was disappointed as a result.
And you know how quick cities and states are to follow law fads. By next year, you'll see people using ear-buds and holding their phones two meters away with a grabber-arm.
I had no grants or loans. I had hard work (well, part time, the other part was a desk job). A lot more people could do that than they realize, and they'd not have the "OMG I hate paying back student loans" attitude I frequently see in the newly employed. I wasn't wealthy. I ate like a college student is expected to eat (scavenging), used little to no money for entertainment. Most kids want to keep being kids straight out of HS, so they think working _and_ going to school is impossible "How will I pay for music/xbox/beer/dates/illegal drugs (of which beer is one if under 21)/concerts/fast food without student loans? I couldn't survive like that!" Yes, everyone can for just a little while.
"Because of course taking someone's education away"
What, it's impossible to go to community college, then pay the rest yourself?
It's still denying a person the same opportunity based on their personal choices, which in my mind is in the same league as denying a person a student loan on the basis of religion (another personal choice). People should not be judged by what they choose to do with their own bodies, only actions as they relate to other people.
Religion gets "special protections" as a choice because the government isn't allowed to establish religion. Seems like a paradox, but somebodies decided that denial of government aid (loan, etc) due to religion is tantamount to supporting one religion over another, which can be tacit establishment.
I wish both sides of the debate would at least be honest about their motivations.
The anti-choice side just want full control over a woman's body. To them a woman is nothing more than livestock that they own.
The anti-life people are just in it because, frankly, killing babies is fun and they can't quite figure out how to legally have Friday night baby killing parties.
Now... figure out which side I'm on:-P
You want to use women as breeders so you can kill more babies?
Gentlemen, we have found a compromise. The logic is sound, and produces results that appeal to both sides without harm to either side's ideals....unless of course the assumptions are horribly wrong, but that's not logic's fault.
The artwork in Alien underlies and embues the artwork of almost every FPS game with a science fiction setting. The narrow, steam filled, water dripping innards of a space ship's mechanical works and bays hiding the alien threat was done best in Alien.
Indeed, the AvP series of games uses that artwork almost exclusively. It's like he was prescient.
In both of those cases, you can be sure that they'd get plenty of blurbs in every news medium. They're getting blurbs now, but it's being tied to how secretive they are with money. Not sure I want to bank with them.
Students for Sensible Drug Policy (SSDP), Marijuana Policy Project and several anti-abortion groups were not finalists
In what ways are these charities? I thought charity is about giving to people in need, not supporting political organisations.
Plenty of anti-abortion groups are about helping and educating pregnant women, not advancing political change. Anti-abortion doesn't always mean anti-choice (as strange as it sounds). The MPP probably believe they're helping glaucoma patients. I don't know what the SSDP does.
True. Apple doesn't want people to know how badly iphone Safari sucks in comparison. I say that as a happy iphone user. I was also using konqueror-embedded years before, and enjoyed it much more on an ipaq through an IR tether with my old nokia phone. Web browsing on iphone is the worst experience ever.
I leave them on because they're not bothering me at the moment (there were some popup style ones a month ago that almost made me flip the switch though.
The telling point about this is that slashdot recognizes that it's usually a desirable thing to be without ads (otherwise, why is it a prize?).
Actually, I just read her comment history, and it seems the coward plagiarized her first (another comment). Her original comment fit the original scenario unlike the AC's.

To be fair 1.5 plans are really starting to feel sluggish these days.
But do a tracer[t/oute] and you'll find you really do get that speed... to the local router, where you get 80kbps and not a penny more.
Pro photographers and videographers still use huge cameras for a reason.
And the #1 reason: All their old analog lenses fit the new digital cameras (from the same companies). Lock-in baby.

In fact, really, the Phantom Menace was the only prequel that was actually any good at all.
I remember thinking at the end of TPM: "Nice over-arching story telling, Lucas: The Emporer wins either way..."

later during the Rebel briefing there's the semi-famous line about blasting womprats in Beggar's Canyon.
