Steam installed Games for Windows Live when I ran Section 8: Prejudice for the first time, only it didn't actually work. I had to uninstall GFW:L, and reinstall it from http://www.xbox.com/en-US/LIVE/PC/DownloadClient before it actually let me log in from S8:P.
GFWL is just crap.

Must be a regional thing?  I've never heard anyone use that.

We discussed this before (Atheist thread?) but they are "blue laws."  I'd like to see any State uphold it.

They're rare, and only see in two or three biomes.
Rare or not, my friend seems to find a way to tame everyone he finds and we end up with 20-30 wolves all sitting around the base yapping... it drives me nuts.

The thing about Unisex restrooms though is that they have capacity for one person at a time, since that's kind of the point that the one person goes in and they lock the door behind them. The Gender Discriminatory bathrooms remove the need for the lock, so they're often swing door style. That's how I've always seen it done.
I've never seen a bathroom stall without a lock on it. Where do you live that this is a thing?
I have seen multi-stall unisex bathrooms, though.
I think there's a communication/region(?) breakdown...

Here in the US, you have restrooms with usually unlocked doors (push/handle style, no latch).  Upon entering this room, toilets have their own privacy panels with slide latching doors.  Urinals are mostly setup with privacy panels between them.

The exception to this rule is the single occupant restrooms which have a locking door.

306
It really boils down to layout.  You can still include urinals in most layouts and still service people who would be using the stalls.  Even if you took out one stall and replaced it with one urinal you'd be able to accommodate a lot of traffic.  (Not to mention, you now have two restrooms that can cover the traffic.  Even more bonus points if you have restrooms backing each other because you can remove part of a wall, one door and open both sides while being able to put in another sink where the old door was.)

Side note: This is a weird topic.

Just like a certificate of handicappedness is not meant to single people out but to let them park in special spots.
I sometimes think those are handed out a bit too freely...  I can't count the number of times I've seen people step out of their vehicle and walk unhindered into a store.
Abuse of a privilege by some isn't good grounds for revoking the privilege, IMHO.

Why does being able to walk mean that a person isn't disabled, exactly? Should we really be judging people we don't know and see for ten seconds in the parking lot as "abusive" just because they don't appear, at first glance, to be hindered by anything? Not every "disabled" person is in a wheelchair.
Well, logically, there's a reason to get a handicap permit for your car and that's to enable you to park closer to the door because you have a hard time walking from further out.

What other purpose would you need to park closer?

I look forward to the next version of Industrialcraft far more than I look forward to the next version of Minecraft.
We definitely don't see eye to eye there, HAYO! :P
FTFY

So let me get this right: a> they knew who Yogscast was but didn't know that they swear somehow  and
b> agreed to pay them even though nobody else wanted to be paid?

That just sounds stupid to me. Surely one person at Mojang has watched more than one episode of their million-subscriber series and could tell them if they thought it would be an issue.

I also raise my eyebrow at anyone who would bring their kids to THE CITY OF SIN
Read back a few pages.

Also, take this elsewhere.  Start a new thread or something.

Education and Socioeconomic factors are also affected by diet. The human brain is a high performance engine, and if doesn't get enough high quality fuel it will choke and sputter.

Wait, I've seen this movie
I was thinking Idiocracy... the beginning (if I remember correctly) leads us to believe the world is satiated by junk food.

Wasn't Yogs involved with that whole mod pack ordeal I skimmed earlier in the thread?  (Didn't they include some mod that didn't want them including it?)

Just thought I'd put up a reminder... in case you (both) forgot:
If you post links to illegal material (files that are being illegally distributed, ie unsanctioned commercial game/music torrents/downloads, etc.) or post illegal images (or images that would have been behind 18+ warnings, etc.), you will be banned.  Don't ask for links or otherwise ask to be directed to places where you can download/obtain things like that either, even if the situation is somewhat more lax in your locality.
Thanks, would you like a pat on the head?

I didn't intend to post the link here in any case.
Nah, a cookie would be nice though.

The link was posted here before... I thought I'd head off the need to report that post before it happened again.  If you feel hurt in any way by Toady and Notch's rules, I don't know what to tell you.

@the one who uploaded some mods while making them all work together (too lazy to look at your name and damn tired here in the middle of the night)
would you be so kind to upload the same thing with the 1.0.0 of minecraft out? pretty please with sugar on top?
If you're talking about me, then sure... once the mods are updated for 1.0 and I have them all sorted out I will put it up here.
Without the minecraft.jar?... since that's considered a no-no by Notch.
I don't really care, honestly. If I can do it without including the .jar I will, else I won't. Its not like it is hard for anyone who wants to pirate the game to find the files anyway.
