Apparently not using Garry's mod, seems it was with the Source SDK.

Well there have been 2 official EVE books, EVE: Burning Life and EVE: The Empyrean Age, which admittedly I haven't read so I can't comet on their suitability for conversion to a movie. However there is the fan made Clear Skies, using a combination of footage from EVE mixed with footage shot using Garry's Mod (Source engine sandbox mod) for interior shots, which I think could very well be expanded to a feature length movie (hell Clear skies 1 and 2 together are 1.4 hours long) and seems to capture the universe fairly well.
A while ago they added NoAI which allowed for user coded AIs. Several of these user coded AIs are quite good and certianly much much better than the original.
Everyone wins.
Well apart from anyone who wants to host video on the web, who will have to either transcode on the fly (is that even possible?), or store 2 copies of the video, taking up around twice the space (assuming both formats produce the same filesize for the same quality , which as I understand they don't). And then what happens when Microsoft brings out IE X.X (Now with HTML5 video tag support!) which will only play back wmvs, thus requiring a third copy of the file.
Unless I'm missing some sarcasm,
Porky Pie = Lie
Exchange has both POP3 and IMAP servers available (at least in 2007) but both are disabled by default.
I am not mixing it up with a backup, anything important is backed up from the raid, but the fact it provides some form of tolerance is why I use raid-5 for the array instead of one of the other options my motherboard offers (JBOD,0,1,5).
I admit I haven't RTFA, but I don't quite get your statement of "And name 3 people you know who run raid-5 on their personal PCs, and I'll show you 3 guys who can't afford an SSD drive.", I can't see how an SSD is a replacement for a raid-5 array. Everyone I know who uses a raid-5 uses it for large amounts of storage with a basic level of protection against data loss. I could justify replacing a raid-0 set up with a SSD.
That said I definitely couldn't afford an SSD that would be able to replace the raid-5 in my pc (4x500GB usable space of 1.34TB), the largest SSD listed on ebuyer.com are 250GB @ £360 each, I would need 8 to match my raid 5 setup which is £2880 which is probably enough to build 2 reasonable machines both with a 1.34TB raid-5 using normal HDDs.
And they are gone.
But everyone I know already uses Spotify, so Slashdot readers from Sweden, Norway, Finland, the UK, France or Spain (only countries its running in), here are 4 invite codes.

I may be back later to post some more.
You could call a ship a mount I guess. You do "mount" your pod inside the ships in EVE.
I'm sure those faked browser error pages won't be at all confusing, visiting the page in Chrome displays a fake Safari error page (unsurprising as the user agent is for some odd reason Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US) AppleWebKit/532.0 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/3.0.196.2 Safari/532.0).
7th May 2003 actually, there was one episode of Star Trek Enterprise which had the Borg in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regeneration_(Enterprise_episode)
Of course I now expect there to be a load of replies claiming that no such show existed.
Say "twenty-three-skiddoo" to logout.
