There's also a built-in subsidy based on income to help those with low income pay for the mandated health insurance. I personally don't know many details about the subsidy and how well in practice it will help low-income people get health care, but it's not like they're explicitly going to tax people who are too poor to afford the mandated health coverage.

This is the only message board I still frequent, but I used to be more active at a couple other boards. Most of the time, it was because it was a smaller community and it didn't take much to become a known regular, whereas here there's a fairly high standard expected of users to become notable.
Nowadays, I lurk here (as opposed to being active) mostly due to time constraints. I don't have the energy necessary to maintain any kind of real presence so I mostly just watch and occasionally poke my head in and add something. -- Goodnight Austin Texas, wherever you are! |

Neverwinter Nights: Hordes of the Underdark has that as one of the options, if you choose a specific quest reward in one of the main storyline quests. Other options include swords and fireballs.
If you choose to learn Mephistopholes's True Name you can order him to surrender IIRC. -- Goodnight Austin Texas, wherever you are! |

Evil in theory and incompetence in practice. Speaking of which, here's an interesting addon to this dilemma: if you could prevent the destruction of the world by committing suicide, would you do it? Before anybody asks, yes, you CAN live out those twenty years, but the closer you get to the Big Day, the more likely it is you'll get things done too late and the world will still end up destroyed. What would you do? If you throw in this twist, then I would probably go the suicide route.

Put me down for the 'evil' camp. Everyone's going to die either way, I might as well get something out of it. Even better if it's Well Intentioned Extremist evil, like using the Devil Gundam to wipe out all human life so the planet can recover from our environmentally-destructive habits.

VF1MS Metal Siren posted... It's probably a violation of the DMCA. Pretty sure the whole point of it was to make the circumvention of content protection procedures illegal. How it would be enforced, if at all, is another question. It's enforced by the game license. You don't own the game, or any of the content on the disc. You have permission to play the game, but you do not have permission to play the DLC, so it would be treated the same as pirating. I was talking more about by what process they would enforce it. Unless you're going online with it, it's not like they're going to find out. I suppose they could use it as an excuse to make some kind of modern Gameshark-like device illegal if anybody really cared. -- Goodnight Austin Texas, wherever you are! |
