I gave up on FF a while ago. I just can't stand leveling anymore. I prefer adventure games like Zelda, GTA:VC, or Jak 2, where the plot is somewhat nonlinear but accomplishing goals give your rewards that further the plot or make the game easier.
I rented TH:U and was wholy underwhelmed. I'd suggest renting it before buying to make sure it's what you like. SSX3 is in the same genre and is much mroe addictive.
SH3 is HARD. Okay, I set the difficultly levels to the hardest, but damn. I haven't gotten very far in (did I mention it is hard) but I don't find graphics are not that spectacular. The game so far is more like SH1 than SH2. I loved both games so I'm not disappointed, but just realize the format is a bit different if you've only played SH2 (the puzzles are real puzzles being the big one).
While I agree that one really can't get the computer one wants for $500, it can be done for about $1000. I bought a 2.4 Ghz Athlon with 8xAGP, a Radeon 9700 Pro(*), a DVD+-RW, and 120GB HD for about 1K.
Same thing just happened to me. I switched to Sprint, and now MCI has sent me a bill with long distance monthly fees and taxes (although no ld charges). I still have yet to make the call to them about it.
Oops, apparently, the 3.5 C will combust with O2 if it's present (although it isn't necessary for the explosion). That combustion could put out a fire.
The sceintific community doesn't think HIV = AIDS. They think HIV is a cause of AIDS. There are other causes of AIDS and HIV may not always lead to AIDS. The Duesburg hypothesis contends there is no link between HIV and AIDS (and from the stuff I've read, blames first world AIDS on rampant drug use).
Why is it often stated that Galileo came up with the heliocentric model? It was Copernicus in De Revolutionibus (published in 1543, 21 years before Mr. Galilei was born) who first proposed it, and Keplar who figured out the orbits were elliptical. Nearest I can tell is that Galileo just promoted the idea.
A Dremel with appropriate attachements is a lot easier to use for this kind of thing than a Sawzall. Just pencil in where you want to cut, and then "draw" the cut with the Dremel. Sawzalls are for cutting pipes and concrete.
I would wonder about the vulnerability of such a jammer to an antiradiation missile... but technically it's possible.
Don't wonder. Logically, if the missile relys on sampling that radiation frequency, then a jam o that frequency would affect it the same as any other device that samples that frequency. If is does not sample the frequency, then it doesn't use Galileo.
Nothing that has been done is enough to warrent such a response yet. There are economic skermishes, a tax on this good begets a tax on some other good. There are even violent responses (9-11 being a famous example, although there are many others). No major countries are so pissed as to go to all out war. The few that might be that pissed (N. Korea, Iran, Cuba) don't have the might to back a war up. The ones that do have the might are trying to create their own hedgemony (EU, China).
The FCC won't let me be or let me be me so let me see They try and shut down Vee Oh I Pee But the call'll be empty without me So call on my box, it's the one that talks Fuck that, tax the talk, and put a tax on that box And get tall, cause this shit's gonna fall, Cause I settled my tax bill, FUCK YOU MICHAEL!
Now this looks like a job for me Now everybody, don't call me Cause I don't have Vee Oh I Pee And the calls are empty without me I said this looks like a job for me Now everybody, don't call me Cause I don't have Vee Oh I Pee And the calls are empty without me
Actually, it's either degrees Kelvin (obsolete) or kelvins (lowercase K). [/yet more nitpick]
How Many? A Dictionary of Units of Measurement - Russ Rowlett

degree Kelvin
an obsolete name for the kelvin. In the International System, temperatures on the absolute temperature scale are stated in kelvins, not in degrees Kelvin.

I don't want a G5
* Note, this was top of the line at the time.
true, but it is a factor of a prime.

Damn you Lucky Ducky!!!!

It isn't. TNT just reacts with itself. The chemical equation is
C7H5N3O6 -> 3.5 CO + 3.5 C + 2.5 H2O + 1.5 N2
This allows a stick of dynamite to blow up anywhere a spark or current is introduced to it, such as underwater or even outerspace.
See here for more detail
while they are on the line, can they take that joke back, too?

Sudden violation of the Second Law of Thermodynamics?
Er, I mean, "God did it".
Often I wonder, if that's the case, then what did God?

Now you've got me started...
The FCC won't let me be
or let me be me so let me see
They try and shut down Vee Oh I Pee
But the call'll be empty without me
So call on my box, it's the one that talks
Fuck that, tax the talk, and put a tax on that box
And get tall, cause this shit's gonna fall,
Cause I settled my tax bill, FUCK YOU MICHAEL!
Now this looks like a job for me
Now everybody, don't call me
Cause I don't have Vee Oh I Pee
And the calls are empty without me
I said this looks like a job for me
Now everybody, don't call me
Cause I don't have Vee Oh I Pee
And the calls are empty without me
one "s" is enough to spell "Classroom."
No it's not.
If they are going to fine you $500 for stealing the pineapples, they should just allow you to take the pineapples.
I think you meant proprietors and not perpetrator even if the second is somewhat fitting.
I hope you're joking. This is exactly the kind of password crack is able to find very quickly.
Oh, okay. I feel so much better now. :)
The last two aren't surprising. How can I use Konq or KOffice on Windows? Both Mozilla and OO.o have windows ports (which I use).
So what are you supposed to do, not write checks? The account number is on the bottom of each one.
"On Saturday morning, after an all-night session, the House voted 392-5 to pass the slightly amended version of CAN-SPAM."
Is it me, or dd this article make you want to know what those slight amendments were?
