I'm looking forward to the expanded content for games other than D&D.

I am amused that WotC has shot the golden cow and thinks that with some simple words they can go back to milking it.

In previous weeks we've read of the despair felt by Amazon as they've been unable to drain people's bank accounts with Alexia. It is nice to see that they've turned things around and will be able to ADD YOUR GOLD TO THEIR GOLD GIVING THEIR GOLD.

So how long till people figure out that this is just reprinting news articles that were approved for publication in the Russian newspaper Pravda? I wonder if they'll be using actual translators or if they'll rely on the cheaper Google Translate? Neito Pravda uv Izvestia a uv Izvestia nieto pravda! --Pittsburgh (PA) Post-Gazette, September 1934.

All I can think about this is that perhaps the contractors should have looked closer at the lowest bidder weapon systems from the carnival group.

It is important to remember that Comcast subscribers pay extra for a Comcast supplied wifi cable modem (at least in Minneapolis). Really silly of people not to notice.

I think that it is a great idea to make people pay for Fox News. Perhaps then fewer people will actually watch and parrot it!

100 TB isn't a lot of storage by today's standards. It hasn't been for a long time. Okay, if you are at a small company, perhaps, but for the big companies, 100 TB is small.

McGruff was replaced with a cheaper actor. The original McGruff works for a call center for a large HMO these days.

ASUS makes a wonderful 1920x1200 resolution monitor.

Wow.

You really haven't been paying attention. In MN we had a bridge fall down. Then after a bunch of running around, several more bridges were closed before they could also fall down.

More recently, we had a huge number [40+] of 'pavement failures' during two days of rush hour. And this is in a state that actually puts some money into basic infrastructure.

Caprica and Stargate Universe are part of the reason I dropped cable entirely. I can't see myself paying for any of the stuff that they currently produce.

So... what's the link to her new party? :-)

Virtuality. Sadly it died on Fox. Looked promising.

Funny you should ask. Scientific data from the early dawn of home computers. Okay, so it was really the late 70s. Data that was recorded by an Apple ][, not an Apple ][+ or any other extension. It was for my dad, stuff in the Physics world had churned and the ancient data (generated by a now dead post-doc) was of interest. So I called my friends with old gear. It was a several step manual process that involved several ancient Apples ][s, Proto-Macintosh systems, and finally an Macintosh laptop that had both a 3.5" drive and a USB stick. I was much more successful than my dad thought I would be, his geeky son tends to be who he turns to when all others fail him, and he complains about not being able to do something with computers to my mom, and she makes him call me! :-) The outcome has been somewhere between 3 and 7 published papers. All off of work that seemed to be dead end at the time. It was sort of interesting seeing just how little space was taken up by the boxes of old Apple ][ disks when copied to a modern flash drive.

Sounds like the WalMart way.
