NTFS-3G is terribly slow. I tried just a filesystem copy of a few virtual machines and it was bad. Would have taken hours. I ended up copying the files over the network from a different machine, and it was considerably faster than a USB hard drive.
If you have a baseball, and go through the motions of a pitch, and let go of the ball to throw it it can go really fast.
If you don't let go of it, and it stays in your hand it isn't going anywhere.
If it slips out of your hand while you're still trying to grasp it, it will go much more slowly than if intentionally thrown.
Which of these types of situations was the strap designed for?
Now say a person is incapable of the intelligence required to hold on to the Wiimote. Or should I say required to even attempt to hold on to it.
Say a person thinks, "Oh look a strap, I don't have to practice good judgment, I'll just intentionally hurl this at my TV."
Who is at fault? Nintendo for only designing to mitigate accidents rather than blatant stupidity? Or the morons who intentionally hurl the things at a TV?
Organized crime was around in the same way prior to the prohibition. And there is no reason for organized crime to disappear now. Not since people realized how successful it was.
A while back, I made a crack about helping to end women's suffrage. Someone responded to that, that women's right to vote is what caused organized crime. In the sense that them being able to vote allowed the prohibition to pass. And creating the demand for the mob.
I thought it was amusing, in that it was at least indirectly true.
And how is it even hard to believe? He could be deaf you know. Not saying they are, but that's one fine reason. And there are many others (aside from just not enjoying it) to choose from.
I don't know from experience, but from what I have read the audio quality of the iPod hardware isn't up to snuff, so the improvements in AACplus might be lost on an iPod. At which point, why bother?

Residents of the UK can.
Chinese checkers perhaps?

There is no problem if people hold onto the remote. The problem is when people hurl them.
The people with the "broken tv set" shouldn't end up with $.02 they should get a helmet, elbow pads and a bib. Maybe some adult diapers too.
If I were Nintendo, I would settle and offer helmets, elbow pads and bibs to anyone who was part of the suit.
Well, if it was cold enough... it would be valid.
Actually, the strap was designed so you wouldn't accidentally drop the thing.
Not so you can hurl it.
An analogy that fits would be something like a climbing rope versus a bungee cord.
One is made for hurling your self from a height, the other is made for saving you from an accidental fall.
But management never knows what they're talking about.

Or the account they are saying the music was downloaded from was open at a different address?
In a campaign of strong-armed extortion where you make examples of people who don't pay protection, I'd say it is relevant.
All they represent is fascism with a friendly face.
Friendly face?
It did have a starting score of -1
Or maybe, release a version without DRM.
The hardware could be rated for such output. I don't know, I never read the specs.
Not only do they have to ask them for the money, they also have to pay yearly fees in order to get any. Not exceedingly small fees either.

All the cool kids to say its ok?
Sounds like you want a PC.

If someone knows better feel free to correct me.
I always thought the problem was with the software (only allowed to run on a mac) and not the hardware.
Pystar is selling software on the clones, I seem to recall that being the basis of the case.
Fast Faction Farming? What does that have to do with DRM?
