Well, some of then had software that ran at boot for security (anti-piracy) reasons, but it was gone by the time the game started.

Sorry, I'm out of the loop. What's bad about DDR3?

Perhaps I'm missing something, but is there a downside to the government having everyone's DNA or fingerprints on file? It's different than being watched all the time. It's not a privacy invasion.

I don't really have sympathy for this guy.

Downloading for personal use is an entirely different ballgame where the laws are ridiculous.

This, however, very directly contributes to loss of sales. This is selling other people's work for personal gain. It's wrong, and it's very rightly illegal.

". . .in anticipation of a final exam this evening."

I see the problem in with the other two, but not this one. Enlighten me.

Hello Mr. Euro and/or Person who has never lived outside of a big city. Many, many job holders in America who don't live in New England or California live quite a distance from their place of work. Living closer is frequently not an option in these more rural areas. Likewise, public transportation is often woefully inadequate or entirely nonexistent. The vast majority of America's land is actually a pretty low population density with a few high-density cities scattered around.

You kidding? The people upset wanted an in-game model actually shown. They teased the face reveal in at least 3 places, then ended with the crappy 2D image. It was a big let-down.

Finally, an Omni-Tool!

Debian GNU/Linux is Debian's official name. That's what they want to be called, and Debian's what I run, so I call it that.

I don't necessarily think that not knowing how to code on a practical level is really necessary for average Joe, but Mr. Young is definitely on the ball about the general idea. I took Computer Science in High School it was my major for my first year in college. It definitely changed the way that I think about complicated things and go about attempting to solve a problem.

Then again, perhaps it is just certain types of thinkers that are attracted to coding and actually doing it just helps hone this type of reasoning.

I have a problem with this. You are suggesting that the mere location of the baby determines its status as a human.

Because all technology that's 4 years old is utterly useless, right?

Of course you did. Mother Nature is the personification of nature and thus a proper noun.

Can you point me towards good information for/against climate change so I can make an educated decision?

I've tried to research, but there's just so much bad information and highly opinionated emotional stuff that I can't find any good information. Then again, I haven't tried terribly hard either+)

But you strike me as someone who could set me in the right direction.
