Oh yeah? What about all the 1.1 trillion US dollars in bonds that the Chinese have bought?

My personal favorite.

It's been known for a while that SRWare Iron is a scam.

Drag to snap is, well, snappy. I like Aero Snap feature of W7. Just grabbing the window by it's bar and dragging it to top or sides is actually quicker than sniping for the maximize/restore button. Especially when using a touchpad - hold down a button and just swipe your finger.

Death Star had to have maintenance crew. Also, the second one was being built when the rebels blew it up, possibly with a bunch of civilian engineers and contractors. Do you think the people who built and serviced it were in the military?

What were the civilian casualties on the Death Stars? Also, the whole thing would be pretty interesting through the Empires point of view. Yeah, they blew up Alderaan, but what exactly made the Empire evil? Mind, that I've only seen the trilogy and don't know anything about the extended universe.

Mod parent up.

If pot were legalized then I would agree with you, but medicinal marijuana != legalized marijuana.

Medical marijuana is exactly that - legalized marijuana. It's regulated and taxed. That's the idea behind legalization. It doesn't necessarily mean that you can grow it, carry it and smoke it when ever you want to. In Netherlands, for example, marijuana isn't legalized. It's decriminalized and tolerated.

Who's the Chinese dictator?

What are the parents supposed to do, keep them on a leash?

There are some parents who do just that.

Ikaruga, Dwarf Fortress, Liberal Crime Squad, Spelunky.
Some of the latest ones I've played. There still are challenging games out there. You don't have to play the mundane ones.

... if pirates ever crashed ships into rocks, cliffs etc because of their 'bionic' limbs.

The Electric Sheep.
Best. Screensaver. Ever.
