You might have a look at that too
It's still fairly basic though, but it does not contain any of the old opengl cruft.

I agreed until I shelled out for the expansion which should have been in the game from the start.
The city area is still small, but you can add some towers that make up for it. And it's actually quite fun.
Yes,
Just look at Anders Behring Breivik here in Norway.
He's even allowed to study political science in jail!!
Sounds like they have been trained in the White tower
Publicly posting tax information has nothing to do with wealth inequality.
That is the excuse, not the reason. The only ones that need to know your income is the computer systems that is used to calculate taxes.
Fighting wealth equality should happen in policies, not publicly shaming those who work hard and actually contributes to the society.
It is hard to explain to foreigners often, but there is a deep rooted culture of envy that historically have been strong where someone standing out in a positive way is pulled down as hard as possible.
Everyone should be equal, or else.
This is also ingrained in the school system and is one of the reasons we rank so low in the PISA tests.
Fortunately this is starting to go away as people come to their senses and stick to their own business
We just elected the first liberal government in many years and I hope they will make the necessary policy changes like removing the public tax information.
This is incredibly stupid. Criminals use it to pick out who to rob, and the news has a feeding frenzy every year where they single out people who actually contributes.
I hope this system will be gone and buried soon along with the whole envy culture that we have in this country with the new government.
It's funny. In any other operating evironment you would call these root exploits.
However in the Apple camp it's simply jailbreaking. One does not dear imply that the iphone is insecure
I could work as a programmer, however since the pay as an analyst is much better that is where I am.
The work is still coding, though the it is different and involves a lot more math and statistics than regular app development.
My tools also differ. I use PostgreSQL and R mostly, but I still find my self using C or ruby when the situation requires it.
I'm not considering my self a hobbyist programmer though. This is what I do for a living
If you need to slam the bakes to stop for a yellow signal you are going waaaay to fast into the intersection anyway.
Nevertheless. We don't have anything resembling those cameras here and quite long yellow light. People still slam the brakes or floor it when the yellow hits.
Some stop in the middle of the road blocking everyone too
Bottom line: people can't drive so nothing really helps except building roads that make it impossible for vehicles to cross in that way.
The headline say that it has been rejected, but the Norwegian article sais the status is not yet decided by the proper governing body. Quite a difference I'd say
They very clearly state that bitcoins have not been banned as a currency, only that it's status still has to be decided by Finanstilsynet (almost like SEC, but with a broader mandate).
The Norwegian IRS does not have the authority to claim it is a currency or not, only Finanstilsynet. All they do is tax what they see as an asset until Finanstilsynet gives other directions.
Nettvalutaen Bitcoins beskattes
Translated
Quite different heading than the
Translated it just means "Bitcoins are to be taxed".
I resigned my Linux Journal subscription the moment they went away from paper.
Geek news is in abundance on the internet. Having a tablet in the toilet just is not a substitute for a magazine.
Not to mention that the world is very beautiful
The whole package is just well crafted and entertaining, and the fact that you can get all the skills and abilities but have to build your own "deck" from over 500 makes it very free indeed.
Personally I find The Secret World very nice for my wife and me as we play casually. There is new content on a steady basis and lots of outfits that my wife loves.
It's set in a dark contemporary world where the secret societies are comming into the open due to paranormal events.
It's quite a horror style dark mmo
We also play minecraft multiplayer on a whitelist server, and my 2.5 year old daugher is starting to take very much interest in watching us feed cows or ride the minecarts
I just watched this clip of Magnus where he beats 10 Harward lawyers blind folded
Quite impressive memory.
He reminds me a bit of Rainman sometimes.
Any given program will expand to fill available memory.
