Like I said. Sony is in fact forcing me to lower the value of an item I already paid them for in one of 2 ways.
When I buy a car Ford dose not get to come out and say that I can choose to have them remove my A/C or disable any way to ever have my car repaired again.
I bought the car with A/C. I paid for that. They sold it. They do not get to take the A/C cause they do not like it anymore and if I dare to not remove the A/C they will flick a switch that makes my car suddenly worthless.
Again. I find it hard to believe that you are actually incapable of seeing this.
They also release new games that need the update and will not play without it.
So Sony is making you choose between running other OS or playing new games and playing games you have already bought online.
Not exactly cut and dried. What Sony has done is wrong. I know why they did it. It may end up being the best move for them. It is still wrong and your statement that the update is not forced is wrong for a great many people.
The choice of do I want to use the system I paid for to do everything Sony promised (Other OS and old games on online) or do I want to do everything else Sony promised (Play new blue-Ray movies and new games and play new and old games online). Saying that Sony leaves us with a choice is bullshit and you know it. Give me your cash or I shoot you in the head.
Was there a reason you said that? Was it karma whoring or just stupidity? Maybe you work for Sony.
Mistakes I get. Hooking up an air line to an IV is not a mistake. It is not paying attention. It dose not matter how many devices you employ. This is something that needs to be fixed at the personnel level. Nowhere else.
Fuck it. I do not care. Go ahead and make the world filled with cold coffee. Put warning labels on everything covering anything. Take away lawn darts. Sharp objects and fill in the Grand Canyon. Flatten the mountains. Set the speed limit at 3Mph. Require that all people constantly wear protective gear at all times. Ban flight, space travel, water sports, sports in general, people saying mean things, religions, atheists and make sure that everyone eats approved foods only and force 12 glasses of water down their throats at the end of every day.
It is also a process that is not needed. What we need are competent people who take responsibility for doing their job to the best of their ability, What we do not need is more regulations and industries built on the back of "People are to stupid to be expected to do it right."
What are we doing with this mindset. What dose this current climate encourage? What dose it discourage? After you have thought about it is that what you want?
Fuck that shit. If the nurse or the doctor is too fucking stupid to get it right they just need to be gone.
We can not as a society keep on enabling the worst of us to make it through life. It is not a good and noble thing that we do. It is the slow destruction of the human race.
Then again I am not limited to Samsung products. If I do not want to pay $600.00 for a galaxy s, it dose not mean I need to pay $300.00 for a iPod touch. I can buy a 9", 7", or a 5" archos.
Whenever iFanboys get nailed because something that costs half the price is more capable we hear how it is worth more money for the design and UI. When we here that something that is more capable and has a better UI we get to here, "But it's $20.00 cheaper!"
You are correct. The US sucks just as bad if not worse than Iran.
Please feel free to pick another country to move to and let us know when you get there. Try North Korea. I hear that they are really just misunderstood.
So you take no responsibility for the country you are arguing about and none for the one in which you are a citizen.
Why am I not surprised.
Sadly there are many things about my country with which I am currently unhappy about. Unless I stand up against them with all I have then I am responsible for them.
Cant pay teachers what they are worth. They are currently boycotting a paper for showing people what they are worth.
Dear people who pay my salary. PAY ME WHAT I AM WORTH! Please though do not judge me on how well I am doing. Do not look at the results I produce. Just give me more and we will call it paying me what I am worth.
I believe that unions benefit unions. That is all they do. They all just want more members. Paying more dues. So they can give it to politicians who will pass laws that make people who do not want to be in a union forced to pay dues anyway. Let me say this really clearly.
FUCK UNIONS.
They may have been useful when corporations owned the government but it is just as bad when the unions own them.
I was probably being a bit harsh about it. I just hate uppity who lord their "intelligence" over us with their many words. All the while hoping nobody notices that the words they use have no meaning. Guy should become a politician.
Paper based book. Unless you are just being a pedantic ass.
If that is the case then you are doing it wrong. Let us go back to a carbon based book. Hell we could get all high and mighty and say "I will move to the standard, plain analog, matter based book.

Even WORSE

One country can not be "better" than another. It doesn't work that way
You sir are "special". I think you might need help or at least an education.
Please feel free to pick another country to move to and let us know when you get there. Try North Korea. I hear that they are really just misunderstood.
Can't be either party. Though it will need to lean heavily conservative. Must work logically after all.
You do not have a clue as to what a union dose. A union collects money from its members in order to give large sums of it to political candidates.
How long do you think your pussy loud mouthed ass would survive without police and military around to protect your ability to spew such stupid shit?
I have to say in a world with no law you would have a few problems saying that shit near me.
Actually I had no idea she could type.

Of course there are women on the internet. Hell if it wasn't for women 93% of the internet would vanish.

they don't have access to the Internet.
Hopefully they don't have access to USB keyrings, flash drives, thumb drives and CD/DVD ROMS that have access to the internet, either...
USB keyrings, flash drives (same thing), thumb drives (Same thing again).
Do you just type things to make your post look longer so that people will have the belief implanted into their head that you are not dumb.
Not a ground control computer. A computer that is not within the aircraft. Dose not fly. Therefore a "Computer on the ground."
I can go to Ebay and buy an ST506 hard drive as well. Dose not mean it is not definitely in the past.
That name plus gaming on Nintendo just begs for gay jokes.
