Innovation is not always the same as entertainment. I had to read Madame Bovary as a college student, and while it is considered both a classic and an example of the great novels of its time, it has all the excitement and interest of being fed a heaping bowl of broken glass, one tiny spoonful at a time.
In my personal experience, anything that Fox says is "bad for America" usually means "bad for the republican agenda". I'm not exactly inclined to believe any sort of fearmongering they promote.
You must help me!
I am the Prince of Newfoundland, wrongfully imprisoned for having hidden a stash of illegal mp3s from thousands of your favorite artists. If you email me back with your personal bank info, I shall split my mp3 stash with you. This is not a scam! (*legal disclaimer* this is totally a scam)
As long as p53 remains correctly active and functional, p21 inhibition has a potential to become a major cure treatment for a variety of ailments, from third degree burns to diabetes... up to any number of currently untreatable problems. Such a promising cure could possibly be upgraded, research pending, to a magic bullet vaccine status.
No, but I'm about to blackmail you, so I thought I'd bring it up.
These app store squatters probably aimed to get on the ground floor of cyber squatting like it used to be done with domain names, though they just didn't count on app devs not being able to actually contact them to negotiate. Like a kidnapping without any ransom note.
I was going to make a snarky comment that pretty soon we'll all be paying royalties for having living bodies, but then I remembered that I'm already paying taxes.
This short sentence, which anyone can remember, turns in to a ten symbol password, containing letters (upper and lowercase) and punctuation, which is incredibly difficult to brute force.
I'm personally a fan of made-up words that have asolutely zero significance to anyone but me.
According to AFACT lawyers, ignoring that something goes on (as that ISP probably did) means to authorize, so does that mean that the federal government is authorizing the giant doomsday device I'm secretly building in my basement?
Agreed. Battle The Power is still the best pinball minigame I've ever played. Also got to love how the game had MAGNETS under the table that it could randomly activate to (literally!) throw a curve ball at you!
Come on, cut Nvidia some slack. Everyone knows that all prototypes you see at technology tradeshows are real, like that sweet, sweet Infinium Labs Phantom console they showcased at E3 a few years back- oh wait.
Or would they have been progressed at a far faster rate, because the progress would have been based on competition instead of an arbitrary expected development?
Either that or the industry as a whole would have fallen into an lethargic pause, feeling no need to reinvent themselves as no standards are imposed on them to create faster hardware. The demands of the gaming market may have done this eventually, but then again we might still be playing Pong 12 Remix Championship 30th Anniversary Edition...
Imagine a Beowulf cluster of those... in my smartphone.
Eventually the smartchip in your credit card will get bored, nano-build a wifi connector out of the card's polymers and connect to the net, building its own Facebook page and getting more friends than you have. And then Skynet wins teh interwebs.

Exactly what did they invent? Game controllers have existed for decades, and remote controls have had feedback LEDs in them for even longer.
Launch package deal comes bundled with Duke Nukem Forever and Optimus Maximus keyboard support.

Let's start a hard drive timeshare program, so you could run with win 7 in the summer, vista in the fall, XP in the winter and linux in spring!
Mikey from the commercial. Bit of a typo here.
Blackmail is such an ugly word.
I'm not talking about blackmail.

Hey, Mickey, he leaks it!

An Xbox 360 is a ticket to the "coolest uncle ever" title if there was ever one, is what I'm thinking.
Think of the children! Won't somebody pleeeeeease think of the CHILDREN!!!

This is good news! Your bios will allow you to recover in small 1-minute increments those 20 hours you just spent upgrading to windows 7.

Launch all Zig! For great justice!
Make it 100$ and he spends the weekend at the public library. Not a bad deal for a weekend spent drinking and having sex.
