Ya know, I was playing UT on Sunday at a custom maps site and in walks Loki. Played for a few rounds, kicked some proverbial ass and left with out saying a word. I, of course, gave up the mandatory [TT] Loki will never die!
I just rescently met a programmer who has worked for them in the past. Cool guy, by the name of Rion.
You designed this didn't you. You use this regularly don't you. You wish to make millions off of your rubber-band-tube-hooch-balloon don't you. Inspiring!
Dunno. As I'm sure you know, it was up, and then back down again last weekend. Now, it's well, a damn ad page. ??? Vlad, care to enlighten us? I'm telling you, the Slashdot crew kidnapped him!
You know, those kind folks who keep track of all the copywrighted artwork in the form of music. Each time it gets played, I get paid. For life. Respect.
If every one here wrote a letter to Gateway, a serious one, no less. They would take note that people are upset by this. But intsead, it's just in the qickie queue for swtory tidbits. Fodder for bitching.
No. Grassroots only deters the decision making process, prolongs it essentially by making it harder to make better decisions for many more.
I firmly believe in adding more choices for every thing, like the grassroots movements does: it adds one more option. It should remain at that. Due to the fact that it merely picks an angle of any argument and attempts to capitalize on that particular angle. Thus exposing a loophole. Whereas, by adding more informed and better individuals (radical thinkers) to the already existing status, we then eliminate the broad decision making needs placed upon all of us which inherently inhibits a better decision making process. The two meld together a stable, yet, fore-thinking entity.
Unfortunately, about a year and a half ago, I was listening to NPR. A gentleman was speaking on the subject of technology. He was steadfastly stating that he felt that technology had rode to a grinding halt in any sort advancements that would wow the public or create any excitement in the technology marketplace. It was soon after this wave (or the beginning) of media downplay of technology did we begin to notice the move from technology stocks. We all know that many (MANY) people listen to NPR and other such news affiliated stations, be it TV or other. They who listen to these programs are directly influenced by what they hear and see. Yes, even the rich are completely impressionable. When the media launches a full scale mood swing on things such as technology, one can rest assured that the people are sure to follow where the finger points.
When this happened, I personally saw the landslide of failing dotcoms, network consulting agancies, and even hardware vendors. Now given the fact that I have a very skeptic, synical mindset towards just about every thing, I feel that we have no one to blame other that the media. When statements like some that I heard; ex: feeling as though technology had reached it's terminal plateau and we should not expect to see any MAJOR advancements or a rebirth for at least ten or more years... One can only think that some how sweeping statements like what this gentleman was making are the true culprits in our current state of layoffs, cutbacks, and cutforwards.
Ummm..no. It needs to include the phrase "Blazing Speed" in there some where. Some thing like..."The AC (Anal Crevice) Avenger's scool of Blazing Speed First Posting". You are now complete.

Word.
we used that knowledge to help track terrorism and not group it in to the same classification. Very cold war. Hell, almost fashionable!
Mod worthy.
