1) Im not 100% positive but Im pretty sure you do need BC. 2) Yes.

So I was over at Blizzard's site to look for a forum, which apparently doesnt exist, or Im blind, when I stumbled across this:

Ah, Sylar is such a badass. Loved that scene

Afaik, Comcast hasnt yet instituted a cap (at least in Illinois) and they one of the monster huge companies here in the states.

Yeah, I thought that booth review was suspiciously fast too. They immediately lined up and took a knee to run out the clock, Im not even 100% sure they did a review at all.

The usual, WoW, but I got a spiffy new mouse. Now I have to retrain my muscle memory to utilize the two side buttons which I programed for keystroke 1 (scorch) and keystroke 4 (fire blast). Its harder then it sounds after years of doing it by manually clicking on those numbers, lol.

Hehe, that looks pretty funny.

Nah, the statue's four toes were natural. Meaning, there wasnt left over foot where a toe should be.

Wow.

It did, a lifetime ban.

Ok, thanks.

Wait, I think Im mixing up the names. Isnt Faraday the scientist? Or is Faraday the last name for Richard whos always around and never ages?

I thought that was ghost punching.

Yeah, Sweden has the mad fiber optics. I just got a letter in the mail from Comcast (my internet/cable provider) that surprised the hell out of me. Something like "Due to recent upgrades to the infrastrucure in your area we are happy to inform you that your internet speed has been increased from 6MB/sec to 12MB/sec with "speed boosts" up to 15MB/sec for no additional charge. To take advantage please go cycle to power on your modem and reboot your PC." Of course, nothing is free so Im waiting for the other shoe to drop, lol.

Awesome episode last night. Im guessing Faraday tried to

In general I agree that "more can be done". That said, cases like this are not the norm or even forseeable, they are one-off. Some random psycho blows the last gasket keeping him in check and goes on a rampage. Theres nothing to prevent, nothing to be gained from "understanding" him, no pattern to see. Put a $3 bullet in his head and bulldoze him into a grave.

Why is your ire directed specifically at games resellers vice a used car dealership, book store, movie rental, etc... This part fascinates me, why is the game industry the sole beneficiary/whiner of after-market sales? Why are they the only IP that should get paid for life?

Lol, you guys are so understanding and compassionate. Hypothetical question, is there any amount of evil a person could commit before you would consider them irredeamable? You know, a real SOB that would only be doing the planet a favor by being removed. Or is everyone savable? Just a bit more understanding, a bit more insight, a bit more handwringing?

I think he had to be in

Interesting. As Im sure you know, when you die in WoW you rez as a ghost at the closest graveyard and have to run back to your body. This usually takes less then 2-3 minutes unless youre in the bowels of a dungeon. How does the rezing mechanic work in these games that it potentially takes that long to get back to your body?

So the 1978 version of IotBS was a remake itself? Interesting. Off to IMBD with me.

I can see everyones points wrt permadeath and PvP looting. It probably would be much more exciting having the proverbial Sword of Damocles always hanging over you, but to me thats not long term fun. Sure I love the thrill of a well fought or barely survived battle but those penalties would ruin it for me very quickly. For gods sake, Im the highest level possible and I die daily!

Looks like he killed an old lady last week too:

But its just too easy to die for there to be permadeath. I think it would be really frustrating to have to start over and over every time a battle didnt go your way. Even against like-leveled opponents, one unlucky crit and its back to the character generation screen. If there is to be a death penalty, I like EQ's method (XP loss).

Shows fine for me, nice collection.
