Then you know little about the man. Going to the moon is something he did, but he was much, much more then that. The man was a nerd, engineer, teacher, astronaut.
As has been seen time and time gain, people have got to eat. In order to eat, people need money. You really end up in a place where it's give them what they want, or you can't eat. And this sorts of practices become common among all business. That is why we need a law. So the employees have a grounds to stand on.
You aren't giving up anything. DRM games come with DRM; regardless of the delivery. IT's no different. well A little different in the Steam isn't as intrusive, and the games can be played without a connection, unlike many off the shelf games.
"often they cost more than the store" seriously? Most games I buy on steam are a couple of month old, and half the price then the store. When three is a game I want to play on release, it's usually the same price as the store..sometime a little cheaper.
Here in the US, anyways.
"But I feel dirty when I see the DRM on my machine." as opposed to all the other DRM that is already on your machine?
OTOH, traditionally I can buy a game at the tore for 50 bucks. Later resell it for 5 bucks. On steam, I can usually purchase that same game for 25 bucks. So resell doesn't really bother me. Gifting games I have played needs to be allowed.
Bu yes, they need a 'home server' option that lets anyone in your home play any game as long as someone else isn't playing it.
1 years after his death, Apple will start to loose it's way. Tim Cook didn't learn anything from Jobs. Now all the fan boys can't stand behind contrived excuse and apologies; which is critical to Apple vocal customer base. Much of which is cult like thinking when dealing with Apple. Seriously, I'm thinking about writing a paper on it. Please note, I said their vocal customer base. i.e. the apologists.
Are you clueless? He single handedly undermined diplomatic efforts. Cause a shit storm.
AND if you would bother to read the document you would learn a couple of things: 1) As it turns out, the US was doing what it said it was doing, no sneaky backhanded effort. 2) The documents are very well written. Thoughtful and intelligent.
The problem is that OTHER COUNTRIES are being hesitant using us as the go between. Something the US has done very well. Again, it's all reflected in the documents. He should be locked up.
This is all about the military not wanting it's personnel communicating with him. Considering how he like to profit form publishing military secrets, it seems reasonable. The rest of the article is over blown scare words and hyperbole.
Person is k now for trying to acquire US secrets. Person is know for releasing the documents.. SO the military doesn't want it's person dealing with that person. Wow, that's not scary, so lets toss in al-Qaeda , and maxmum sentences of death. NOW it's scary. What this is, is reasonable.
Also water retention. Mostly that applies to women, and it's a small bit, but don't discount it.
"Ultimately, you have free will," maybe. OTOH, when people who have the dopemine relationship to fast food grow up, they don't have the tools to deal with breaking that dopemine connect. If the connection is strong enough, the will never be able to break it without intervention. Even then they might not be able to.
"is the excitement of adventure, accomplishment, creation and invention, over coming a great challenge, seeking a great treasure and earning the right to hold it. " people need to learn to enjoy that. Just so you know.
" That's why fast food is predigested feces." what abunch of shit. Seriously, anyone who lumps all things together like that has no argument. There are many fast food places that are far more healthier then the perception.

Well, people where fat in the past and painted, clearly since it was in the past, it was better. herp, derp.
CLUE: Kids grow up into adults. that means the adults they become are HARD WIRED to buy fast food. By hard wired, I mean they get a dopemine and serotonin kick. Which is 2/3s of the reason we do anything.
That's a nice narrow middle class view you go there.
Unfortunately, the issue turns out to actually be more complex. YOU assume all parents are the same and that all parents are actually knowledgeable on the subject.
There was an experiment. They would measure the Dopamine level, give the animal a sweet drink, then measure it again. as expect, after the drink, the Dopamine would rise up. After time, the Dopamine would increase when the animal heard the door open. then when they heard foots steps, then all by itself at the specific time of, even if no one was coming. So that's what we see. The answer is not to give the kids fast food and break the expectation.
" but had a difficult time describing to her what exactly version control was" If you can't describe it in a few sentences, then you don't understand it.
Version control it how you keep discrete version of the software. It makes trouble shooting faster, it allows you to roll back in case of a crisis, and allows for cheaper maintenance. You can maintain the current release, while still developing a new version. If she wants more, list all the issue you had to be paid to clan up that wouldn't happen with good version control.
In most cases, my initial sentence is enough to get the all rolling.

Don't be stupid. Please learn to think critically and apply those skills to this shit.

As they have stated, they will completely shut down the government and destroy this country as long as Obama doesn't get a second term.
Companies will do whatever the can get away with to control and monitor their employees.
And it's hard to say no when you have to eat.
As has been seen time and time gain, people have got to eat. In order to eat, people need money. You really end up in a place where it's give them what they want, or you can't eat. And this sorts of practices become common among all business.

Are you stupid, or just a liar?
And I speak was someone who has played steam games where the is no internet connect.
You aren't giving up anything. DRM games come with DRM; regardless of the delivery. IT's no different. well A little different in the Steam isn't as intrusive, and the games can be played without a connection, unlike many off the shelf games.
Do you even remember pre-steam DRM schemes?
Don't like DRM? take it up with the publisher.
"often they cost more than the store"

Becasue the Nazi didn't like people releasing military secrets. and the US doesn't like people leaking military secrets. Clearly Nazi America~
Tomorrow we will invade Poland.
This is all about the military not wanting it's personnel communicating with him.
Considering how he like to profit form publishing military secrets, it seems reasonable. The rest of the article is over blown scare words and hyperbole.
He isn't a friend of democracy. Don't be fooled. He is a friend of getting in the media, and profiting from the exposure.
Openness and transparency, by releasing secret military documents.
Gee, I'm shock the military doesn't want it's personnel dealing with him.
Would you have the same opinion if the released all your credit card information? kids scheduled? passwords? address? medical history?
Person is k now for trying to acquire US secrets. Person is know for releasing the documents..
SO the military doesn't want it's person dealing with that person.
Wow, that's not scary, so lets toss in al-Qaeda , and maxmum sentences of death.
NOW it's scary.
What this is, is reasonable.
And she is going to be screwed when she gets out on her own.
How about you watch commercials and explain how they are trying to manipulate you?
I would rather my children and look at a commercial and take it apart, then be hidden from them until they end up on there own.
And just so you know, my kids have been able to take apart a commercial since they were 10.
Brought to you by the bullshit committee on nonsense.
