And as I was waiting to buy an e-ink reader until someone came out with one with a built-in light, I got one as soon as I found them in-stock at the local B&N. I have more than 400 books on it, mostly from Baen's web store. I can read all day without being tethered to the wall as I had been; reading for more than 5 hours on my notebook means needing a charge. I can wander into the kitchen for a drink or a snack and continue reading without having to turn on the lights.

Water found to be wet, shit to stink, and the cake is a lie.

Yes, I'm sure Samsung developed the F700 in four months.

The point is that Samsung was developing the F700 before the iPhone was revealed, but were not allowed to mention that in court after Apple brought up the F700 as an example of copying.

If you're on trial for something and the judge tells the prosecution that they're not allowed to bring up your previous conviction, that all goes out the window if you mention it while on the stand, and they can then question you on it. This is supposed to be the same thing.

Yes, you can join a guild on a guest server.

I did that, but since it actually WAS the backup, it didn't cost anything but replacement cost.

I no longer buy vertical external drives. Who the fuck thought that was a good idea in the first place?

And the big deal made about the boob physics. Unless you've played it or watched the videos carefully, you wouldn't know GW2 has boob physics too. It's more like actual boob physics, and was never mentioned by the devs. Unlike Tera's anti-gravity jello-tits.

No, the real reason is $14.95 * 25 * 6 = $2242.50.

The difference in GW2 is that the "coolest outfit" doesn't also allow you to wtfpwn the PvE content and roflstomp other players in PvP (unlike, for instance, Aion and WoW).

Yeah, but in the UK, the "huge freakin' knife" is just as illegal as the gun.

Did you use a 10-year-old Ubuntu? Err, wait there was no Ubuntu yet.

Damn Microsoft for not supporting non-existent hardware with their installer! Windows XP RTM: August 24, 2001 SATA created: 2003 (Wikipedia).

Instances are limited to some dungeons, personal story, and overflow. "Overflow" means that when there are too many people in the area, instead of making everyone else that wants to go there on that server sit in a queue watching a timer, a new copy of the zone is spawned, they're put in the overflow, and can move to the "real" zone as space is available, or just stay in the overflow.

Except the current model linked has an AMD C60 and 2 GB of RAM. For $30 more you get 4 GB and a bigger hard drive. We have one here for a travel laptop. I would buy one to replace my older Aspire One if I weren't planning on a windows 8 convertible of some type.

Oh, genetic difference. Never mind.

About half an inch.

If I am recalling correctly, pre-Kunark and pre-research change, the two runes required to research Ice Comet dropped one from Lord Nagafen and one from Lady Vox. Later (Kunark era?) the Staff of the Wheel quest was added, which will give you one of each. Of course, you can bone the combine and have to do it all over again.
