New Superman movie teaser hits the web
My power is discombobulatingly devastating. I can feel muscle tissues collapse under my force. It's ludicrous that you mortals even attempt to enter my realm. discombobulate is not a very ferocious word. Sort of like being "ticklishly tough". Unless that is the sense you were aiming for ...

If you start with historical work, the authors might dabble in fiction, as well. That's all I can think of, not having read any fiction of that time.

In case your thinking of buying PD0 on launch.
"... Still, all that matters is that PD0 will be in the shops on launch day - in Europe as well as in the US - and we can't wait to give it a go."

KotoR 3: Ideas and Suggestions
Why do you like these options? Why favour them instead of a Sith Lord final boss? You have stated your opinion without any indication of why you prefer it. It would help discussion if you say why, because maybe we can talk about other ways to provide what you want

Whats up with all the short games ?
Dunno if Spider is correct about Gun and KONG then there should be plenty of space left. Since no one seems to put PC specs on shopping sites these days cant really check. Pirates is 1.5 GB (which is the most recent game I have to hand). Everquest II is 6 GB of HD space (found the specs) But no idea what it would be for the latest stuff. I know I get about 59 minutes of record time on the highest quality setting on a DVD how that would translate to games though not really sure. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Half-Life 2, with all the accompanying VAVLe admin (and optional other games) can be up around 10-15GB footprint on the disk. I don't recall ANY games requiring multiple DVDs for distribution, and there are some big games out there. I guess once lots of pre-recorded FMV is added to games the space will be used up.

I don't understand the point of instancing. Is it just to give people the "single player feeling" in the MMORPG? What's the point of the "MO" bit, then? Should just be "Massive RPG".

Proof Jesus was black
Seems like your lack of scientific approach to religious studies is just as much a roadblock to your own comprehension as I feared. Perhaps you might benefit from understanding confirmation bias.

Looking for a book about...
History books would be a good start. I don't have much knowledge of the area, Mus?, sorry I can't be of more help. I'd be interested in learning a bit more about it, though my next research time zone is Europe post Roman Empire, as there is quite a bit of false hearsay that masquerades as historical fact about the time, and I would like to use that as a running start to launch myself into medieval European (i.e. non-British) history.

1.5 GB sounds far too low. How large are the PC files when your transfer them to the HD ? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> CDs hold 700MB (that's 0.7 GB) uncompressed. For ordinary garden-variety DVDs "... single-layer DVD can store 4.7 Gbyte ..." Blu-Ray has LOADS more space: ... Variations and sizes A single-layer Blu-ray disc (BD) can fit 23.3, 25, or 27 GB; this is enough for approximately four hours of high-definition video with audio. A dual-layer BD can fit 46.6, 50, or 54 GB, enough for approximately eight hours of HD video. Capacities of 100 GB and 200 GB, using four and eight layers respectively, are currently being researched; TDK has already announced a prototype four-layer 100 GB disc. [1] The BD-RE (rewritable) standard is available, along with the BD-R (recordable) and BD-ROM formats, which became available in mid-2004, as part of version 2.0 of the Blu-ray specifications. BD-ROM pre-recorded media are to be available by early 2006. In addition to 12 cm discs, an 8 cm variation for use with camcorders is planned that will have a capacity of 15 GB. [2] To ensure that the Blu-ray Disc format is easily extendable (future-proof) it also includes support for multi-layer discs, which should allow the storage capacity to be increased to 100GB

Worst Lecture Notes Ever?
I write notes on top of my lecturer's notes during the lecture itself and then write them out together along with any relevant research I've done to support what I've written and what my lecturer has provided... it's long and tedious at times but it's the best way for me to remember things <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yep, full marks to Launchie for this answer. Write the bits that you need to understand what's being taught: what you didn't get, what you thought was the keystone, what you thought made the entire point ... there is a whole area of psychology on pedagogical effectiveness (tell students what you are going to tell them, tell them, then tell them what you just told them), how to revise, drawing mind maps and using mneumonics to help recall facts, etc. Pick up a library book on "learning", it's very interesting and should be one of the first concepts taught to all people.
