They make you change the sheets, do laundry, and take out trash?

For what you pay, the hotel should be doing this.

Yeah, yeah, I hear ogling male butts is all the rage these days.

A "heat ray" is an infrared laser beam, like the one in that old Soviet sci-fi about engineer Garin.

Yepp, as I said: The system is built first and foremost to defend itself.

Personally, I don't think that police should have any right whatsoever to enter your digital devices. Yes, including for terrorism and kiddie porn. And I am 100% for us nerds developing defenses against this overreach. This case is a lesson that teaches us distress PINs are a good thing, but we need to improve on them, make it less obvious they were used, etc.

It's not a question of "Germany for the Germans". It's a matter of allowing people who are openly opposed to your culture to become a sizeable minority, while at the same time putting pressure on society in every way in order to extract wealth for the "elites", while at the same time replacing everyone among the "elites" who is actually capable of something with incompetent, corrupt egomaniacs.

If one of these factors were absent, we might yet manage. Competent leaders might be able to keep things together. Not maximizing profit for the few while returning the populations' lives back to peasantry would give ordinary people breathing space to cope with everything and solve issues at the base. Not importing culture war would keep society more cohesive and able to fight back against the exploitation.

:))))

Hello, liar, how's life tonight? Got nothing better to do than tuquoques on slashdot?

Is the mom basement cold and lonely?

Later, lying dude.

One small correction: everything you've put out there is there for the taking.

Yeah.

That's why when faced with a crime that concerns you, you should either face it openly or like Charles Bronson, in the movies.

Too bad only one in 4 decades goes to prison.

You know, in this thread there are two people: me, who's pointed out an actual lie by you, and you, who actually lied.

Methinks you're a lot closer to the traitorous corrupt lying pedo rapist cunt that you idolize than I am :))))))

It's called compewt now, not waste heat.

A short summary:

dumb rightwing nutjob blockhead lies.
dumb rightwing nutjob blockhead is told.
dumb rightwing nutjob blockhead goes into full trump mode: "WHARGARRRBL WHARRGARRBL WHARRGARRBL."
never go full trump, dumb rightwing nutjob blockhead.

Go bark at the sprinkler outside instead, stupid pathetic liar, and take your excuses with you :))))

LOL, sure, a verbatim quote of a two-line post is a "misrepresentation" :)))))

What a pathetic, dumb son of a bitch trumptard you are :))))))

They're brilliant at making games. They have their suite of exclusives that people love and will buy the console for. And they keep a consistently high quality bar for those games. Even the worst Mario game was still good. Same for Zelda. Same for Metroid. As long as they keep that the case, and their consoles are reasonably priced they'll sell. Which, combined with cheaper parts, is why they generally made a profit per console rather than a loss.

Xbox and PS don't have that. They used to each have some exclusives- but they've gone away from that road due to the high cost of creating them (Nintendo's focus on gameplay over high end graphics also reduced the cost of making a game). Even the exclusives they do have don't have the reputation for quality- they tend to run hot and cold. And MS in particular has waffled between wanting to push xbox vs PC gaming, reducing the number of exclusives as they launch on PC. It leaves them in a place where there's no driver for their new product other than better graphics quality. And with the economy tightening, that's something that will be dropped first.

The reading comprehension fail is you failing when reading the GP. They were talking about Falcon 9 replacements being two decades behind. The implication was that nobody will catch up to Starship any time soon.
