Well, aren't there a bunch of hippies who whine about foresting in certain habitats of animals? If less foresting gets done, then those could be the first places that stop.
But, I'm sure that they'll find some other reason to whine about the Kindle. You can never win with hippies.
Enjoy the amazing 14 tracks that don't work half the time because the DRM server is down!
Gawk at the privilege of paying a subscription based fee for songs that were considered played out ten years ago!
Try exciting DUEL MODE! Can you fatten the pockets of record execs before your opponent does? Use your Purchasing Power to put the game into overdrive and send your score (and our profits!) through the ROOF! (Activation of Purchasing Power requires valid Debit, Credit, or Wire Transfer.)
It's Windows only at this point in time. Mac and Linux versions are planned, as well as support for other browsers. Considering the successes of OpenArena I don't see why the people who made the damned game couldn't do the same thing.
That said, it is pretty stupid of them to have the OS check *after* you download the plugin.
What possible advantage does this afford over just running a program in my OS -- a program that, mind you, has already existed on every platform for over nine years and is long since open-source besides!
I'd say the primary advantage is downloading and playing it with everything good to go, including custom configs and whatnot. It's all stored server-side.
Even Steam can't do cool shit like that... yet.

You should see the mess that kid made in the basement with his research on geothermal energy!
On the plus site, his parents unplugged the hot water heater and the water still stays at a toasty 2,000F.
I'd be too tempted to be able to pick out my own name for a code.
You can go the outright vulgar route and call it something like Cock++. I mean, can you imagine inserting that terminology (no pun intended) into a workplace environment?
Or I'd just have as many terrible puns in it as I could... perhaps call it Hay, so I can confuse people with stuff like the Stack.

Exactly! Otherwise, Steve turns into The Fleshreaper and starts collecting torsos.
Dignity and privacy on the Internet? What are you, some kind of madman?
Oh this is ridiculous!
Or, they could move to countries with more women than men, such as Russia or Brazil.
there they are enshrining someone whose entire point of view was "fuck the consumer".
Was he a gigolo or somethin'?

To be fair to the GP, he could just be talking about the ever-growing hole in the ozone layer above our country and everyone getting sweet tans.
Apu was robbed!!!
That's nothing new, really. The Kwik-E-Mart gets robbed all the time.
It's like duct-taping a thumb drive to your undercarriage and driving across the border.
A year's salary every money would sure as hell stimulate my package (if you catch my drift).
The IRS is actually pretty nice to you unless you owe them a shitload of money.
Duh, the Venusians created the Martians.
Okay. I'll amend my previous statement.

I think I've just given FreeBSD fans nightmares for months.
