thing is i can almost guarantee that at least a portion of motives is the nds home brew. nintendo has pretty much done everything but flat out say they hate it. witch to be honest is horrible. i wish they would look at the success of xna. that would not only please the home brewers but also give them no need to crack it. nitnendo has pretty much done everything but say they are not fans of inde developers. it costs thousands of dollars to get the sdk to make nintenware. then you have to pay a fee for them to just look at it. which of coarse they can still reject. in a way nintendo is worse then apple. at least apple has the smarts to release the sdk for the public to play with. im sure if questioned they'd say something like "oh we want to ensure the quality of the games" the fact is with something similar to the xbox live submission where gamers have to vote on them.
says the person sitting on the biggest compilation of data ever to exist (aka the internet). sayings there's to much of it is no excuse. one of the main reasons why we are held back technologically is the fact that scientists consider themselves to be in this vip exclusive club. things like the debacle of Jan Hendrik Schön could have easily been caught more quickly if more eyes where able to peer over it.
in my opinion the main reason why there is such an issue is because the media industry is basically trying to sell abstract ideas. take the example of a video game. is the code itself copyrighted or just the end result? if its the code then how much change needs to be made for you to get around those pesky copyright laws.of coarse the industry is going to want to tell you to sell it. its what they do. they'd market air if they had the opportunity. personally i think free and open source software is going to not only turn our current economy on its head, but also possibly improve it. the thing is the more we try to bottle are thoughts and sell them the more we hinder the growth of humanity. i for one think that we would be way more advanced if it wasn't for i need to sell information. many great ideas have been cut short because it wasn't "profitable" enough. i really hope that the digital age will help change the perception of compensation.
just to be clear I'm not advising that we stop right now and burn all of our money. as Russia proved that idealistic society where everyone is equal is impossible as long as human greed still exists. i just hope that with the digital age instead of shallow pieces of paper we barter information with each other.
i don't think you quite understand my stance. the issue i have with the i-pad is that it discourages the use of your own machine. its like saying "even though you payed for it and have to maintain it I OWN IT" this is a miserable step backward for the computing world. Anything that discourages control over your own machine can only lead to horrible consequences.
the internet is far to broad to simply state someone is addicted to it. im not stating that is impossible to become an addicted to a certain aspects of the web but to say that your addicted to the net in general tells me the researches lacked a certain understanding of it. the internet itself is a form of communication, so saying your addicted to the internet is like saying your addicted to talking.
the point of art is a way to invoke an emotion feeling or change your perspective on the world. its a way of communicating thoughts feelings and ideals through the use of a medium. i have to admit not all games do this but there are multiple games that i have played through and where able to experience deep emotions and some have even gone so far as to change the way i look at things. id also like to state that yes i think games can be art. second id like to state that in some cases it can be a better medium then the others because instead of just sitting there observing the authors thoughts and ideas you have to submerse your self into them. its like your put into the game creators mind and you experience first hand everything. the reason why we strive to collect art and literature is because we find an enjoyment in it, and its able to expand are views into the edges of possibility. games accomplish this very well.
Key Words: YET. just because you show no signs of viruses doesn't mean you dont have one. Remember that people have/will use things like Script injections to infect a trustworthy site and drive by download a virus to your machine faster then you can say "your virus database has been updated"
Also not all viruses have the intent of shutting down your machine. Some just want to use your machine to host child porn or other illegal things, and if that happens then you may end up one day with police knocking on your door with a warrant for your arrest.
all the movies form the fifties about giant sea monsters being released by earthquakes are true! We must prepare are selves by watching hours of scifi original movies!
Its also no coincidence, 222nd dive? that's 1/3 evil.
the thing is that its just using an simple algorithm that's very easy to get a hold of(via google). in fact the only reason why i see that this beat the human world record is because it has hands on every side(except the front) of the cube. cool yes, but a massive breakthrough in robotics, not so much.
my question is do you honestly need a heat sink? i mean the moon is at least negative 162 C (260 F). not to mention a dense atmosphere is much denser hence it can conduct heat better.
darpa is defiantly going to be the government organization to incite the zombie apocalypse. though i shouldn't say that to loud considering the made the internet.....
how did they even begin to think about this? a couple of NASA scientists where sitting around at a board meting then all of a sudden say "hey we've got a couple extra billions lets check the moon for water!" "but how do we do that?" "uh....with an explosion:D".

is he really trying to find more blue aliens to star in his next film?
yes but the main target is the i pad. i see this less as a virus and more as a hacking tool.
having a system that doesn't allow you any access to it is a bad idea. if you don't control the system then who does?

outranks every one of these in its failure

apple would probably deny it anyway.

they did say the same thing about the internet and look what happened.
first pluto faking being a planet now cannibalism!? our solar system is becoming more and more like a cheesy soap opera.

apple isnt all that cool
or he could live in a Faraday cage
