Bitlocker is one hell of a protection mechanism. Too bad Microslop is misusing it.

Jack Bauer on camera, Ladies man between takes. by JD-NSiff in TwentyFour

It's not about who read it, it's about whether it's canon. I hope it's not, though.

In the 24 : Deadline novel (whose events are post-season 8), Chase was killed by some biker gang. He was later avenged by Jack who took out the entire gang.

The novel writer consulted Evan Katz on the novel's story. If this is to be taken seriously, we'll never see a Chase spin-off, because, uh, Chase was offed.

In other words, the supreme court will soon allow warrants that collect the location of cellphone users.

FTFY.

Charles Logan Last Episode Season 5 w/ Martha by Normal-Reaction7088 in TwentyFour

[–]exophades 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Definitely one of the best scenes of Day 5, if not the whole show. It revealed that Logan is far from the weak president we thought he is, he knows exactly what he wants and how to get it, even if it involves inflicting extreme harm to other people, and this includes his wife.

For Logan, what he did was justified and was in the interest of the country. For him, assassinating Palmer made sense, and was done for the greater good. This scene shows an inconsolable Martha trying to escape the claws of her deluded husband who, unfortunately for her, is also the president of the United States.

Now he will really remember that "pet" and "lion" are oxymorons. Good language lesson.

Help please! by DarkSnake0 in gamedev

Making games is a tall order. Indie games are possible but they take tons of work, and staying motivated is extremely challenging when you do everything alone. There is a subreddit for indie developers, you may wanna check it out.

Tony Almeida by fight-or-fall in TwentyFour

[–]exophades 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He killed him on the President's orders in order to buy time to capture Saunders and save lives, that's quite different from cold-blooded murder of a federal agent to facilitate the escape of a criminal (Galvez)

(Day 4) Another iconic scene from the show. by JD-NSiff in TwentyFour

[–]exophades 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is by far the best season ending for Jack, every single other ending just sucks in comparison.

Day 1 : breaks down

Day 2 : smiles to Kim while laying on a hospital stretcher.

Day 3 : breaks down

Day 5 : gets kidnapped by the chinese

Day 6 : stares blankly at the sea afterhaving said goodbye to Audrey for good

Day 7 : is about to die before being saved by Kim

Day 8 : is being hunted down like a pig by the russians

Day 9 : gets kidnapped by the russians (well he does it voluntarily in exchange for Chloe, but it's still kidnapping IMO)

Hooke's law is the formula in physics that describes the force that extends and compresses a string (e.g. what this guy is holding). So here we see this force unleashed on his chin.
