If you use Gnome and liked Amarok 1.x, you could also take a look at Exaile. It's pretty much Amarok 1.x for Gnome, except that it's still actively developed. It doesn't feel as bloated as Songbird either.

that accurate? I mean, I know my animals rarely move over a long distance...often within the error range of GPS...

I think I like yours better. I'll stick with that ending eh?

The Law doesn't apply to lawmakers. That's been shown time and time again. All those black hats dropping the mp3's on dear old leader are just gonna end up in jail.

If I had mod points...I'd mod you up.

This is really cool. I can't wait 'till stemcells can finally regrow whole bodies! Imagine! Immortality at our doorstep!

To each their own. Yeah, if I had 60 billion dollars and 20 years to spend it on doing things I wanted..I'd travel the world, visit the people, etc. But at the end of the day? I'd log on to check my emails, read slashdot (:o), mod someone flamebait for GP, then wander off and program. Just because someone is wealthy as sin doesn't mean they have to stop enjoying certain things. Programming is fun. No need to stop programming. If anything, it removes the stress from deadlines or certain requirements and lets you program completely on your own terms. It would mean that all those things you ever wanted to do, you could do. You could wander off to 'theoryland' and think things through without someone breathing down your neck asking for "results" or a deadline that forces a hack job. It'd truly let someone do what they wanted.

then I guess Watchmen is NC-17 eh? So much giant blue cock o_O

'Cause if not, I wonder if it would be cheaper to have a friend order it in Europe then ship it over to the US of A?

If it were unfettered capitalism, AT&T would have collapsed because the market wouldn't have allowed their shenanigans in the first place.

IIRC, they technically can't make you show them your receipts either...

Don't hate pandora for this. Hate the record labels. Pandora is just trying to survive, but the RIAA is a bunch of bastards who want to milk everyone for money.

Grandfather post. The post that starts this specific thread of conversation

Ah. I didn't know that. Well, that should be WELL publicized that it was Pragmatic. Most annoying auth server in the existence man.

A couple of ways to deal with their firings a)Take their skills and go elsewhere. If they're actually any decent, they can make an impressive game to knock the socks off AA3 b)Complain.. c)(and only if it's true ) realize they suck at programming and find a new career. I make no defense of the Army, I'm sure it's a bunch of bureaucratic bullshit, even more then normal(yay for government!), but c'mon. Basic things like not being able to handle auth servers? Something that is at the VERY CORE of the game, that without *the best* you can do is a plain m16 is crap. There was a pretty massive user base for AA2.x and they did a fair amount of hyping for it(hell, I heard about it and I don't even check gaming news websites.) That's one of the more *important* things to handle. Now, if it was crappy funding issues(god knows I don't know what happened), that's another story. If it was programming/design related....that's something *important* to get working right. Who knows? Maybe they are staying truth to the authenticate Army lifestyle, bullshit and all?
