Eh, it doesn't bother me that much since they'll add more over time.

Yeah they still have the strict true skill in the background (excluding the social playlist which'll have the looser skill search) so games will still be competitive as opposed to Reach and 4's steam roll or get steam rolled matches.

My mom started acting crazy around her late 20's.  A year into my parent's divorce I remember we were driving home one night and she randomly asked me if "my people" thought we should get pop from the gas station.  Being 7ish I just said sure and didn't think much of it.  But over the span of the 6 year divorce it gradually got worse.  She thought pretty much every person she has or ever had came into contact with was in the CIA, one faction on our side and another on my dad's side out to get us.  My dad tried having the judge force her to get diagnosed to get help since the judge refused to give him custody and she was court ordered to but skipped it and the judge never held her for contempt.  My dad filed a complaint on the judge and won the case representing himself.  I guess she has some kind of pyschosis or schizophrenia?

A little surprised it wasn't China.  They've been looking into cyberwarefare for awhile now.
Their reasons for developing hacking software is to steal corporate secrets and information. According to the article, Russia is looking for mutually assured destruction (cold war era esque tactic) by having the power to cripple the US but not actually using it.

I can't find a source because of the recent news, but my grandpa once told me in the 90's one of the Chinese leaders mentioned something about attacking the US in ways besides all out war, similar to what Russia is doing now, but also taking jobs and stealing intellectual property.

They also are the largest group consistently attacking and recently stole US military weapons plans from gov. contracters.
I've also heard China accounts for a majority of the viruses on the web.

But more will be added as time goes on.

Most of the people here don't seem competitive so does this bother anyone?

To the people who bought digital, there was a glitch for those who pre-ordered COD AW where when it unlocked, it would show it was trying to download again.  To fix this, you can hard reset and that has fixed it for most people.  So just as a heads up incase you encounter it, you don't have to redownload the 45GBs.
What's the difference between a hard and soft reset?
The difference is how aroused you are when you stick your dick in the disk tray.

Spoiler
Soft reset is just regularly turning it off and a hard reset is either  holding your finger over the power button for 10 seconds and turning it off (this is for instant on, you should get a green screen when you turn it back on) or while energy saving mode turn it off and unplug the power brick from the outlet and disconnect it from the back of the xbox for 30 seconds to 2 minutes (People on waypoint said 2 minutes to be sure but microsoft says 30 seconds, so depends on how sure you wanna be).

Doesn't seem like there is any basis for it since states don't have to recognize people's marriages. Forcing states to recognize other states laws seems to defeat the point of having states. Haven't read up on it though. I'm sure there are plenty of counter examples, so I don't really have a solid opinion yet.

It's like having to recognize a drivers license.  No body has to get a license for every state they travel through.

To be fair, pretty much every reviewer opened up with "I've never heard of Halo before."  Nonetheless, I doubt it'll be anything special.
working at IGN
"never heard of Halo before"
fire that bitch.

Especially since they just dedicated a month to talking about the 4 main games in the series.

It looked pretty corny from what I saw so it's kinda expected.  They should just scrap live action and just have Blur make a movie.

It's pretty sad when a news article about cops shooting a kid sounds like something out of the Onion.

I just noticed the cop got a vacation for that murder.

Hey, that kid leaving the engine on forced the police to kill him and give themselves PTSD.  They earned that free vacation!

I'd use some of it to build a self sustaining business to employ low skilled people and work on advocating education in ghettos to deter crime and gang activity.

Booty

Escorts would be a tiny fraction in comparison.

There's your problem.  4.0 GPA Master race.
Which community college/high school do you attend?

I'm still in middle school, but that's kinda irrelevant.   My point was they let stupid people in and then were surprised when something stupid happened.

Grades =/= intelligence.

Just sayin.

People with higher grades tend to have higher intellegence.

yay more stagnation

Gridlock is a good thing, except republicans are just as dangerous as democrats so it still doesn't matter. We'll be stolen from all the same.
slow government is a good thing, but unmoving government isn't.

I'd rather have gridlock than moving backwards.
Yeah man. All that healthcare expansion and immigration reform sure is moving our country backward...

I didn't say those things were backwards, nor am I republican.
