You foul their props at 400m, they'll punch a hole in the side of your cargo vessel with an RPG at 400m easy as pie
What a shame.. I make a point of buying only Linux native games.
But they should understand this.. it wont stop me playing the game. If they would like to turn a profit from me, then Linux port it.
so what do you think they'll say when I say I do it deliberately ?
I don't mind sharing my wifi with complete strangers. I restrict it to make sure they can't cost me too much and everything I do on it is encrypted via VPN so - meh!
Seriously... it's completely useless for someone in Western Australia.
Google is a powerful tool that I've found manages to index Microsoft own support site better than Bing does.
From my perspective they've done little more than join a bunch of poor performing search engines together and given it a New Yorker sounding name.

***Would someone please enlighten me - what is the rationale behind making platform-exclusive games? Isn't it logical to think that they'd make more money did they release the game for multiple platforms? Or do they just expect that everyone has every console out there plus a PC?***
Yeah, Sony benefit solely from the game if it's popular.
Sony make money from the sale of the game, sale of the licence and sale of the consoles... if it's _really_ popular then it'll encourage the sale of more of their consoles thereby acting as a multiplier of their other games.
The developers get lower cost of coding benefits and they'll be paid a kickback from Sony for being exclusive.
The end users get no real benefit.
I'll let Simon say if for me:

Also it's worth noting that FTTH will force Telstra to split up to compete with it.
eh?
It's 51% taxpayer funded, 49% private investment then wholly sold off after 5years of running (Like Telstra, for a fucking huge profit).
Huge bonus' to this plan.. (stolen from the good Simon Hackett shining knight of Aussie ISP's)
Best path: FTTH (not FTTN) (Fibre To The Home/Node)
Retain ADSL2+
Abandon flawed FTTN approach
same (high) speeds for everyone
Retain copper access regime
New infrastructure in parallel
Retain competitive tension
Retain innovation
Retain competitive pricing
No overbuild protection needed
No legal battles needed
more innovation, more choice
long term consumer benefit
So if you load the player using a MAC you get one voice... if you load it using anything else you get a completely different voice.
This is a rather interesting thing to do... I mean, what happens if the MAC users like the other voice?
Why would they do such a thing unless the MAC voice was "better" is some way?
Have such a direct effect on the laws across the world?
I very much doubt that him being convicted would have any effect my me being charged with the same thing here in Australia.
Someone needs to tell those yanks that U.S. != World
ha! am reading this book atm... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dies_the_Fire
Made me think for a moment
and I don't trust it yet.
I love gmail but I can see that it is possibly the most insidious Social Networking tool ever created. So I still don't use my real details on it.
When our (now 11 month old) Son was born it was an easy decision.
Over here it costs around AU$3k to store it for personal use until he is 21 years old.
Then if he still wants to keep it he has to pay extra.
It was even easier for us because the current Government was giving out a AU$4.5k Baby bonus (a once of cash lump sum). We used it for that... it seemed like the right thing to do at the time, and I suspect it still was.
Something else you should know, there are public blood banks that will store it much cheaper. The down side of this is that you have no guarantee of getting _your_ blood back. It's public so that anyone who is in need can use it.
We went private.
Don't swap to FOSS backed tech just because it's free.
AD is actually a pretty sweet piece of tech, and many FOSS apps work just fine with it.
_Always_ pick the best, AD is the best then for the situation pick the best OS to go with it etc
