We can set up dedicated servers for the games we love. Oh wait...
Hard to believe that you pay for 60 euro's for a game and 1 or 2 years later you can't play it anymore. Now what should I do. Buy the new Madden, or buy a modchip...
In the Netherlands (for now) it's legal to copy music to your cd's (due to levy indeed), it is also still legal to download music/movies from the internet. We can't share it online. But it is legal to borrow a cd to a friend for him to copy on a blanc cd. But after they (music-mafia) have reaped the millions and millions of euro's for many years in a time no-one uses blanc cd's for music anymore they wanted to change the rules. And they did. Lol. There is only 1 explanation for this. The lobby is paying the politicians well. It's just insane that we pay for airwaves. Before we know it we'll be paying for the right the breath that same air.
I am sorry. I am upset about all these things they are trying to make illegal. It's like they want us all to be criminals. If we aren't criminals they will pass a law that will turn us into one. According to the law. It's just insane. I have no way how I can explain all of this to my kids without them looking at me and saying... but dad, I thought we won the war against the Germans.
(my 9 y.o. actually said that)
So i can access them from my work of course.:)
(because there is absolutely no reason not to let me do with my music that I purchased or even made that I want to)It's the record-companies and governments who are the criminals here. Not me, the honest buyer of music. Lots of music.
Does this mean the ISP can look into my cd-collection and see that I don't own the right to use a mp3? If so, how? And better yet, how can we stop them.
You do realize that they have confirmed the emails are true?
And please feel free to do so, I will do the same. I still believe in the changing climate. But I just don't believe the steep curve anymore. I can't. Screwing with numbers is something one should have to expect from this institute. And yet they did. And trust me, i downloaded the whole 61mb. But I don't think you did.
Sir, it's my darn right to be a hypocrite. Don't like it? Go live in China where they also tell you what sites you can and cannot see.
I like my freedom of being a hypocrite. Now if that means I can't express my opinion or engage in discussion. Tell you what, I also buy 'wrong' chocolate. Why? Because it's cheaper. Can't save the whole world on my own you know.
I am however an active member of Amnesty and I've written many a letter for the release of captives in foreign countries. Some of them even got released due to this hypocrite and 50.000 other hypocrites writing those letters.
And you? What have you done lately?
Unfortunately there is no better browser for my needs. Still, good that this makes the news. Name and shame, but in the end it won't change a thing. The market in China is not something many companies will want to lose out on. And as long as we're still buying nike's or other clothes made by them little kids there, we better look in the mirror first.
Yes i did read the emails. All of them. That's why. Have you seen the news from Dr Tim Ball? Not the least to say... He agrees with me.
So take your horseshit and your other insults and go away so that we can speak here like grown-ups. Thank you very much.
I sort of believe in climate change, but at this point in time, a day after we all got to learn that the top-institute for climate-change knowingly and willingly changed the numbers, lied... I can not take this serious. First I want to know how much has been fabricated and lied. After that, I might support this type of research again, but only after all the liars are banned from 'research'.
Dude... I also own a swiss knife and since I bought it, I sold my tools, my car, my explosives and my house.
I did buy all episodes of MacGyver though.
Hmmz, well I have to say that your Seiko is a great watch. Maybe it's just because I can fall in love with a decent analog watch. Something I can't with digital watches. My experiences with digital watches is that the battery goes empty when I need them most. But then again, I never bought a 'good' digital one. I am sure those can be excellent at the task as well.
Personally I own a Swiss Admiral Chrome and that one is really sturdy. No stopwatch-function though. But I don't need that, I use a watch to read the time of day. But I understand what you are saying. I guess it comes down to what you are looking for in a watch.
Not only that, a wristwatch will work without an adapter to plug the damn thing in. In my opinion a decent wristwatch is the most beautiful piece of technology in existence. Even better than lasers:) I don't think those will be replaced anytime soon. At least not by people who actually depend on knowing the time.
You do realize that the ones patching those holes first had to confirm they existed?
Sure, I agree with you when you say, some people write an exploit based on a patch. But that doesn't invalidate my comment.
For real, here in the Netherlands media hyped about 2nd life about 3, 4 years ago. Some banks even bought some land etc. But nowadays, I personally don't know anyone using it. So where is second life big? This is not meant as a flame or anything, I am just curious. 1000 protests doesn't seem like a lot. Check the protests on Forza 3 missing custom lobby or the Modern Warfare missing custom servers...
That's a bit more than 1000...
Then maybe you should have a look at this:
http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Updating+Firefox
Although you probably also check the fuel and oil-level of your car and tire-pressure, just so you know you can have a safe ride. It's just standard maintenance and it is (unfortunately) needed. Hopefully there will come a time when all software is 100% safe out of the box. For now that is an utopia.
I know where you going here. But smart criminals don't publish proof of concepts. They just exploit and hope no-one will find the same exploit so it won't be fixed. Therefor I still stand behind my golden rule of security: the exploit comes before the patch. Although I suppose I can alter it a bit.
The hole is there before the fix.
That is a small price to pay for an updated browser that is secure against attacks that already are in the wild. Remember: the exploit always comes before the fix.
Sometimes common sense wins over free speech.
(although I didn't find that level shocking, but rather amusing. Then again, that should be enough for any sane person not to pick up a copy)

Well if 'that Chinese Dude' who can completely close down your business over there makes a suggestion, you better follow up.

Just to make it more obvious i was only kidding, the article is in Celsius ;)
Sir... pssst...
Yes, but what does that mean for the people who aren't to lazy to learn Celsius?

And not wait another week until it's patch-Tuesday.
