I have to suspect that "Sega" is matching something else too. It is such a thing of the past that I wouldn't have even thought to include it. Searching a little on their site doesn't turn up any obvious alternative usag

Honestly I think roommates isn't a requirement (at least in most of those cities) either.

Yup, just some bad press and dozens to hundreds of people dying in fires after surviving the initial crash. (I've seen estimates as high as 900 people killed in Pintos that way. That might not be accurate or fair, but that is part o

How could that do anything other than delay the inevitable? Sooner or later you are going to be in front of a judge and a jury. They can spam all they want, it isn't going to stop the trial from happening.

In other words, they did not expect him to act with integrity. They expected him to turn over the SSL key, then continue offering something that he knew he was no longer in a position to provide. Their expectations of others reflect poorly

I admittedly don't have any evidence of this, but I suspect that "lets become as big and rich as possible" is usually high on the list of priorities for cartels and mobs already, for plenty of other reasons.
