  1. Basically its a gamble. You can gamble on a majority of individuals in your country agreeing with you and somehow (no idea how in practise) communally sorting out all your differences and respecting each other's beliefs OR you can gamble on 1 individual who effectively rules to country to make the choice you want and then oust him if you disagree. Compare the Roman republic to the Roman state under Julius Caesar if you want an example. Getting back on topic, the danger of the phrase "One Nation Under God" in the US cons!@#$%^&*ution is that the US is not "One Nation Under God". The country has a large ethnic mix and a background of Religious intolerance mixed with people escaping from Religious Persecution. One or the other has to give way eventually and "One Nation Under God" suggests that the goverment stance should be one of religious intolerance. So far only extremists have taken the line in this context but until that line is changed, it gives religous puritans some validity. However changing that line is likely to be met from a lot of resistance from Chistians and conservatives who wish to preserve the traditional reading. Which you see as the lesser of two evils is a matter of opinion but from the view of politicians, keeping the line is safest as no-one will blame you for maintaining the status-quo.

    Indeed, its not like banks are uninsured or anything.
  3. Don't know where you live but our nurses are cute
  4. Just read the MERVBot tutorials.
  5. You don't understand. The idea with this zone is that the ships regularly change as the series progresses.
  6. Fake jav huh?
  7. It can handle plenty of programs at the same time but playing music is always going to use (lots of) resources. Doesn't anyone else get even a slight drop in FPS or any slowdowns?!

    Lock.
  9. The state and the church are rightly seperated. I wouldn't want the church running the government... I don't give a -*BAD WORD*- about what the US does to its "citerzerns" so long as they don't impose it on us.
  10. Win 95 and Win 98 were really vulnerable to exploits though. Win NT... well lets not go there. Win 2000 was passable. Win XP really isn't that bad.
  11. "They don't call it a quarter pounder with cheese?"
  12. Mine is half a year old (although a "budget" system) and it still stutters so I'm willing to bet its quite a common occurance.
  13. Have you Seen the rest of this forum?
  14. Publish it here. I'm bored. http://www.octanecreative.com/knowyerpresi...dent/index.html
  15. It tends top drop my framerate lots and create momentary spikes whenever it changes tracks. It has been known to cause visible lag even on fairly high spec machines. Maybe you've just got a great system...
  16. He means AMERICAN football *retch*. God knows why your players can't just press insert... Is there a specific effect you want to bot to do? It sounds like you can convert the hockey bot to do the job.

    talion

    He's still a prick
  18. :#Invasion: Hey guys, I bought anti specially. Smile!
  19. Why did someone remove my post?
  20. [edit] DELETED [/edit] WTF? I didn't post that!
  21. Increased thrust. Increased recharge or is it decreased weapons cost? Also the bombsight on radar although this has been around for a long time. Either way its main advantage is it is extremely tough and manouverable with powerful guns (how many other ships can shrug off bombs and go instantly on the offensive?). NBV: Interesting. Strangely enough I play the new Jav much more than the old Jav. Is that a good thing or a bad thing? Probably a sure sign that Vile will want to screw it up.
  22. 1) You can edit your posts instead of making a new one. 2) Ship centered graphics: feature being discussed. Not yet implemented. Hoped to be in the next revision so we don't have to kludge our own solution like you're trying to do.
  23. The beauty of subspace is its IRC with a game bolted on. Having a "speak key" kills this and I'm against it being the default.
  24. MM: Its /*setship
  25. Surely three words. I can proof, test/bughunt and storyboard. More I can not guarantee but I'm willing to try anything.
