  1. Not sarcasm. I know that illegal immigration exists. For some reason I assume that a fair bit of them try to get their families over as well. As for Hades and coming in legally...if it was easy to get in legally, then it probably wouldn't be a problem. What does it take to legally immigrate into the US? And perhaps more importantly, what does it cost? And if it's just about whether or not people are there legally are not, and nothing else, then I'm curious what the issue is then?
  2. I don't know enough about illegal immigration to know where they send a lot of their money to, so I'll take your word for it.
  3. I couldn't get past the wookie-speak. Though I heard Bea Arthur had a song and dance number, and wookies apparently enjoy interspecial sex with humans.
  4. How does it have a negative effect on the economy. People say that they take away jobs from people, but in my observation it seems as though the jobs they "take away" are often jobs that many consider themselves too good to take? At least for that wage. If anything, I find the economy argument bunk, because cheaper labour means that goods get produced cheaper, and it adheres more to the lassiez-faire capitalist ideology, which has a pretty good track record for growing an economy.
  5. Silly Rabbit - Eddo topics aren't supposed to be serious. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Fixed! I think this effect is significantly overstated.
  6. As l33t d00d pointed out, the law that matters for soldiers is US Law. As for international law, as much as we may want it to, it doesn't count. Because it's unenforceable.
  7. THE Chewbacca...lives on ENDOR? And you know his name is Wicket!! That means you've seen those horrid Ewok movies too. Oh "The Horror, the Horror!"
  8. Heh, considering my older, single core 3500+ has zero problems playing a game like Rome: Total War, I doubt his will. I'm 99.9999% sure that that processor is not 3 years old. Especially seeing as I can still buy new ones. It's one of the dual cores from AMD, and my friend just got it not too long ago with a GeForce 7800 GTS, and there's nothing he can't play. He watches movies and surfs the internet (on his second monitor) while playing World of Warcraft on insane detail settings. CPU power is not an issue with him.
  9. Which is why I had no problems opting for the DDR1 solution that I will be getting.
  10. Wait wait wait...Chewbacca lives on Endor?
  11. I am sure the families of those that didn't get killed from overseas are plenty grateful though.

    Goc may have been in the low 70s, but the Oilers still (barely) won in the faceoff circle.
  13. You know, if the playable gnomes weren't already finished, you'd probably have a point. And I bet many people would say no biggie. But they are finished, so it's moot.

    Meh. Just goes to show there are ass monkeys wherever you go.
  15. 3dfx also gambled that people would have no problems buying cards with 4 chips on it too I guess though
  16. Hehe, I went with the A8R-32-MVP Deluxe because I was getting an ATI card With gaming though, it always seems to be the video card that makes the biggest impact. Which is probably unfortunate. As long as you get a motherboard with PCI-E though, you should be ok for a while.
  17. I thought the eyes seemed fine. It was mostly the upper lip for me. I liked the idea for the teaser though, with the music background and everything else.
  18. Currently playing nothing. Waiting for new confuser.
  19. When frame rates are already really high, people will be more willing to add the pretty explosions. 3dfx gambled that no one would be interested in a GeForce card that ran games slower with hardware T&L, but they did.

    I'm picking Buffalo. As for how you spell clutch? It's P-I-S-A-N-I woooo!
  21. It makes people really bloody lazy. Recently its been shown to have a greater link to onset of schizophrenia than previously thoyght. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I have never heard that.
  22. It's funny, if we heard about all the things that get cut from games, you could argue that no game was shipped completed. Though some people still insist that game developers update their fans, yet get upset when things get cut.
  23. The initial list for the original Voodoo card wasn't all that uber-fantastic either.

    I think there will be an oil spill in the shark tank tonight. And sharks cannot swim in oil! :D
