Oh, do they? You better concede your own point as well, since apparently it's become recursive.
After all, you've turned an observation of rhetorical sleaze into yet another instrument of rhetorical sleaze. Well done.
Weekly and automatically. The latter is by far the most important part. Designing a system without taking human nature into account gaurantees eventual failure.
REGISTERED SEX OFFENDER
What kind I wonder? The term has been diluted to meaninglessness by systematic abuse.

- Guy who called a coworker a stupid cunt?
- Guy who downloaded bad drawings from the Internet?

It's sad what we threw away in the War on Drugs
Yeah, such as a snowball's chance in hell of solving any drug problems.
Imprisoning a million people for non-violent offences and turning them into hardened criminals isn't exactly the greatest crime-fighting strategy ever devised. Especially when it costs 55,000 USD per person per year. But then why bother trying to improve recividism rates when, with privatised prisons, you have a financial incentive to keep as many people in prison as possible?
Overdue? Sounds like gambler's fallacy to me.
At some point developers will start to do the math and see that they can drastically increase profits by going low price on digital only.
Some of them have. Namely Valve.
They have a pitch-perfect strategy:
- Sell games at full price for a while. Massive profit from day-one customers.
- Sell at a drastically reduced price. Massive profit from thrifty customers.
- Hold seasonal sales with huge publicity, attracting even more customers, making even more money.
- Repeat forever.
You just have to "disable" the games on the old machine and download them again on the new machine.
That's misleading. You can download games to multiple machines without restriction, there's no bullshit like managing activations. One of Steam's selling points is the ability to log in from any machine and play your games.
In the scenario above he wouldn't even have to download them again. You can simply copy and paste games between machines, or even between accounts if they both have the relevant game attached to them.
Demand the ridiculous, then 'compromise' down to your real demands. They look a lot better that way.
Usually the other way around. Foreshortening is a bitch.
The Xenos is a modified Radeon X1?00. The RSX is also known as the Geforce 7800GS.
It would be ridiculously expensive to actually design whole new architectures for these things.
You might find this article interesting.
You can only manage that kind of effort temporarily. Soon your work goes into the shitter, despite feeling that you're getting more done. And you need an equivalently long recovery period just to get back on track afterward.
Being asked to do it for an indeterminate amount of time isn't a good sign.
How can you fit that many fallacies into a single paragraph? With strenuous effort I might be able to approach your level of trolling, but I fear I could never reach it.
Bravo, sir.
What are you taking about.
"The PSX wasn't the fastest of its generation."
There's nothing to dispute. The dig on its textures was because the N64 had perspective-correct texture mapping with trilinear filtering, and the PS1 was stuck with affine nearest-neighbour.
Power doesn't mean graphics. Computational power and available storage limit everything in a game.
