    Quick question for any other professional programmers out there:

    Is it weird to charge a company a straight up fee for custom development of software and then charge them license fees for every install of that software? I mean, I think it's cool, but then again, the more money my company makes, the more money I make. I'm just wondering if licensing fees are a part of custom software dev.

    I've seen it done before.

    Also a reduced upfront cost and a percentage of sales processed

    Well, we did reduce the dev costs and put them in licensing costs - this is to ensure a revenue stream as they buy more units from us since hardware has tiny ass margins these days.

    Makes sense

    Dude, real life zombie killers seem to have a lot of contempt for people who play L4D. They're all "just learn how to kill zombies in real life!"

    The funny part is when they try to play L4D but they don't do as well. They're losing to people who are FAKE zombie killers!

    Oh snap, some 4channer got himself shot at a Scientology building for wielding Samurai swords.

    Maybe he though he was Leonardo?

    Man shot, killed at Scientology building in LA
    15 hours ago

    LOS ANGELES (AP) — A security guard shot and killed a man wielding two Samurai swords Sunday on the grounds of a Scientology building in Hollywood, police said.

    The unidentified man approached three guards around noon in the parking lot of the Scientology Celebrity Centre, Los Angeles Deputy Police Chief Terry S. Hara said.

    The man was "close enough to hurt them" when one of the guards shot him, Hara said. Detectives were questioning the guard to figure out the swordsman's motive and determine whether the shooting was justified.

    Surveillance tape showed the man arriving at the center's parking lot in a red convertible, then approaching the guards with a sword in each hand, Hara said.

    "The evidence itself, it's very, very clear," Hara said. "The security officers were defending their safety."

    Detective Wendi Berndt told the Los Angeles Times the man was involved with the church a long time ago.

    "There was a previous relationship, but it is unclear to what degree," Berndt said.

    Calls to Scientology spokespeople were not immediately returned Sunday.

    The Celebrity Centre includes a seven-story Norman-revival landmark that towers over the Hollywood freeway and used to be a residential hotel for movie stars.

    The castle-like facility now serves as "a home for the artist, a place where he can come and learn, attend seminars, meet other artists and even perform at our many showcases and events," according to the center's Web site.

    The Church of Scientology was established in 1945 by science fiction writer L. Ron Hubbard. It teaches that technology can expand the mind and help solve problems and claims 10 million members around the world, including celebrity devotees Tom Cruise and John Travolta.

    I want to know why many times they refer to Leo's swords as Katana, when they are obviously Ninjato.

    Basically, his sword his straight, samurai swords (generally referring to a katana) are curved.

    His swords are based off ninjato, or, at least, the popular conception of them.
