Nah, just the usual pile of shooty things and a hanger - purely a ratting/staging tower.

FarmVille? That ain't a game its a scam to part deluded idiots from their cash or waste more time worrying that their virtual cow hasn't been milked or their crops are rotting in the field when they should be doing something else (like worrying whether they remembered to fuel the bloody POS in eve).

Hm. SNAFU something grabbed rest of my post. :-(

Anyway

Core i[number of cores] [major design].[revision] would ease confusion.... then just have list of major design to code name mappings (or even append the name when listing cpu's on your product pages if you are a vendor) and job is done; least in terms of stopping the naming confusion.

Thought the '2' in Core2 referred to the second generation already...

With the Core i3/5/7 being the third these are more like the fourth generation.

Might be time for people who make C(G)PUs to have a rethink on naming schemes... maybe even take a leaf out of the software industry, e.g

Core i .

Might be safe against EM interference but interference from a sniper...

These days common sense is more correctly called uncommon sense; given the average level of stupidity witnessed every day...

Final proof someone in the Russian military has a good sense of humour, they saw their nice ionosphere sounder and thought... "hm we could broadcast a code on this which means nothing... and watch the rest of the world (including our own sigint) spend decades trying to work out what it means"

One day it will broadcast... "fooled you!" then go silent for the rest of time...

(Either that or someone started the programme off and left a note saying do not turn off. Only problem was they forgot to put that they only meant do not turn off for a few days as a soak test)

Think the problem with all these schemes is a lot of the countries where these schemes are aimed at are not the kind of countries that require beyond reasonable doubt before finding you guilty....

*Some L Series Lens, some are somewhat expensive for semi-pro photographers... like this beasty... 800mm f/5.6 a snip at £15k.... http://www.canon.co.uk/For_Home/Product_Finder/Cameras/EF_Lenses/Image_Stabilization_Lenses/EF_800mm_f-5.6_L_IS_USM/

That's not oil though ;)

But in future probably will turn out even more lucrative - rare earth metals are big $$$

Though I really wouldn't worry about the Iranian drone till some concrete evidence of its flight capability and profile is released... so far it seems to be little more than a funny shaped missile.

If the US Gov't seriously wanted to remove him I doubt they'd bother with faffing around like this.

He'd maybe get run over by a drunk driver on a pedestrian crossing, or suffer a fatal heart attack with something nice that only shows up on a tox screen if you are really looking for it...

Think the point is not that it is a game portraying two sides in a war, but that it is two sides in an on-going and current conflict....

Personally don't give two hoots, whether the side I'm playing is taliban, communist, alien, whatever its my side and I'll play to win, at the end of the day in a game I forget the backstory and focus on the battle in hand.

Don't recall calls for world in conflict to be banned because it showed a US commander dropping a nuke on an American town nuking his own battalion... nor for the apocalypse now sound track on one of the maps, strangely enough set in a rather 'nam like terrain...

Why? The A-Team have to have the lowest kills to shots ratio of any SF group in the world. Even the ancient greeks managed to kill the same number of people with bullets as the A-Team (exactly 0).

Now if it was a certain Navy chef guarding the venue that would be scary... or a detective who ends up in vest most of the time...

Didn't know he had an active war dec; idiot, wonder if he knows what npc corp alts are for ;)

Why was the pillock bothering to haul Plexs around? The price (I know as I just picked up a couple) is pretty much the same in most of empire space, and our bit of 0.0 even had some around the right price...
