Do you like WW2 grand strategy naval wargames?
Well, one of the main reasons cited for the nuclear attack was the seemingly suicidal devotion of the Japanese soldiers who would rather die than surrender; methinks you'd have to duplicate that sort of force (and attack the Japanese islands to help let the fascist government know that the Allies know that they are trying to keep the truth about the fate of Japan from her people, and that the Allies won't let the government get away with it, even and upto bombing the civilian population).

Sports you do
It makes it even funnier that they will never stop hating Maradona for '86. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> He cheated! He admitted it and still got away with it!!!!!!! we could have won!! :angry: <{POST_SNAPBACK}> And if your Auntie had wheels she'd be a wagon. Hee hee, but the English just love to be good losers, even if it means that they don't win. :D

Surely if it did you could explain just as you did.

Is there something blocking the EMR? Interfering with the signal, perhaps (a controller next door)?

HD-DVD Hacked!

NWN2 Toolset discussion
I think they had some pretty onerous time constraints. In a post-release interview with senior producer Ryan Rucinski, published on GameBanshee recently:

PDA opinions?
Windows CE-compatible is not my first choice for a PDA; having said that, it means you can load applications like Excel, Word and Powerpoint (all cut-down versions). The Dell model is really good value and a cutting edge model (I don't like Dell and I wouldn't buy one, however). Palm is the market leader (for a reason), though this means that they can be a bit pricey: they use the Symbian OS which I think is far superior; though I use it on my Sony-Ericsson mobile-PDA device (which can connect directly to Windows PCs, too). The Blackberry is a very popular choice, too, if you primarily want mobile email (also available on most 3G and Smartphones); though there is an enormous patent battle they are enmeshed in that has caused some concern.

Best Prices for Windows XP?
Upgrades are cheaper, too, though you are probably looking at the Windows XP Upgrade (not for Original Equipment Manufacturers, obviously, as they are installing the OS on a new machine). It's an identical product. Microsoft is quite sensitive about re-installing Windows on another PC; this also has repercussions if you change your motherboard (for example), as Windows XP thinks you have installed it on a new PC and will have issues when you try to activate it online.

Need a Hard Drive
One of the most impressive upgrades is always the harddrive: these guys improve at or beyond the Moore's Law curve, so a year makes a HUGE difference. I finally moved all my games off my C:\ drive, as I noticed that it had just over 1GB of free space (and I couldn't play Half-Life 2 after about thirty seconds due to a ferocious virtual memory thrash of the HD); even though it's all the same physical harddrive, the 10GB+ buffer should allow me to avoid this sort of inconvenience in the future.

HD-DVD Hacked!
Each title (read: HD movie) has its own key, which the player decrypts using its own product key. This allows Hollywood to invalidate a HD-DVD player that has been hacked. What the crackers have done is find a universal hack for titles, circumventing the players' decryption technology.

The reason I picked up a book on Jung in the first place was as background research for a book I'm reading The Seven Basic Plots, which is subtitled Why We Tell Stories; I agree some of his stuff is pretty off-the-wall; then again, you can't apply logical positivism to metaphysics otherwise there wouldn't be a lot of religion around ...

NWN2: Forumite Impressions
As a funny aside, Electronic Arts just recently revamped the engine for the NBA Live series. Until this past year's version, it had still be built upon old versions of the basic game engine. There were so many parts of legacy code that people years later didn't really know what they did. I guess there was still some old Sega Genesis code lurking deep within the depths of the code base. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Sounds like Windows ... "

Europa Universalis III Demo
The speed also drops whilst you attend to other stuff in the interface ... click on a political slider, for example, and the speed will drop a notch. And I noticed the speed was still far to slow at maximum.

Fallout 3 on the Xbox 360???
It will be Fallout. They own the license, you don't. End of thread. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yes, they may own the license but they also want to make money off of that license which makes them dependent on the gamers they seek to sell this game to. If it isn't Fallout enough then I will not buy it. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I can see them running scared now ...

Ray gun makes targets feel as if they are on fire
Actually, it's got me wondering why the Coalition aren't using more non-lethal force ... it's a great way to test the stuff, and it certainly isn't pleasant (being sprayed with gallons of glue: Hooray!); they would also get a lot of kudos for their softly-softly approach. :D

Hey Finns!
I mentioned pro-bono it for completeness. As I always do. It is part of the possible solutions. I mentioned the Stones because that is a very prominent and recent case, and, if I have recall of it, then it most assuredly is in the public domain and that every lawyer remotely interested in music would know about it too. It's probably why Solomon Linda actually got his result. If anything, your example of a Zulu farmer from before WW2 is more misleading than helpful.
