| | Looks like to me that you knew this was an obvious misprint and jumped on it hoping it would go through. Then when the company realized their mistake, you are trying to use technical legal principles to justify the enforcement of an unfair transaction. Calling this "getting stepped on" is very much an exaggeration. As for the technicalities: if there is an obvious mistake made in the offer, it is not an enforceable contract. Whether or not the offered price is an "obvious mistake" is what would be up for question. Regardless, ethically, you don't have a leg to stand on in my opinion. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | How are the in-game advertisements a separate issue?? They are IN THE GAME. It is an audacious, ground breaking new development in gaming. It is the one thing that is making me reluctant to buying it. I would have appreciated some opinions on how intrusive they are and how exactly they glean information from your system and how they use it. I feel this is very relevant information for a review.

| | I would think that the muzzle velocity of the first few rounds would be fairly low as they would have less barrel length to accelerate through. Each successive round would have increasingly higher velocities until only the last round would have the velocity a conventional system would have. Flag this | Edit this post |

| Are you implying that all Mexican men are closet homosexuals just waiting for an excuse to have anal sex with each other!!!
If not, then are you implying that there is something funny or wrong with homosexual bum sex?
Or maybe you are being condescending and derisive towards the fishing profession??
What is your ethnicity and profession huh? huh?? ;) Flag this | Edit this post |

| It seems like you are implying that the comment about fajitas is racist, which obviously was not the intention. Maybe he should have done a thorough study of the actual dietary habits of Mexicans beforehand to prevent the possiblity of making comments that will offend the overly uptight political-correctness police.
Then you turn around and "take a potshot" at someone's name for sounding foreign??? What a hypocrite!!!! Flag this | Edit this post |

| | It is ironic that terrorist probably get their most destructive ideas from the best and brightest of the society they want to destroy. Otherwise they would probably never think of ideas beyond using high explosives. They aren't exactly enlightened intellectuals. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | When you learn a skill, you are actually undergoing physical changes in your brain. Molecules and neurons are being rearranged. I am guessing that spiders are born with the physical network of nerve cells already set for the skill to spin webs. Spider DNA has the skill pre-coded in. The downside I figure is that a spider couldn't improve the web design or adapt it to suit some new situation. It would take millions of generations of natural selection to slowly adapt.

| Yeah you are right. True communism is actually a utopian ideal where the masses have all the power and there is no government whatsoever. North Korea is actually the opposite with complete government control over every aspect of society.
Deimos, what is your opinion on the massive North Korean death camps where hundreds of thousands of "unpatriotic" citizens are worked to death along with their entire extended families (in case unpatriotic behavior is caused by a genetic predisposition) Just Google search for North Korean death camps to get a glimpse of this nightmare regime.

| | wow amazing. Yeah good point about not being able to see anything when you are inside the cloak. I guess you would be in complete darkness. Maybe they could poke a tiny video camera lens outside the cloak, or maybe leave two holes for your eyes. The tech would prevent reflections but I wonnder how it handles any electromagnetic emissions of the cloaked object such as infrared. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | Sharks have been around for 100s of millions of years but will probably be extinct in the not too distant future due to humans' love of hunting and finding that everything that moves tastes "sooooo good". Sharks do not reproduce in massive quantities like fish do. They only have a few offspring and therefore their numbers can drop precipitously and take decades to recover. They are an amazing animal and it would be unfortunate to see them disapear forever. They are far more awe inspiring to see them alive underwater than stuffed in your living room. A little scary too. I know because I dove around 3+ meter long bullsharks . Flag this | Edit this post |
