Why is this marked troll, its a good idea.
The major problem I could see is keeping connectivity with the "cloud" even if it was (geographically) locally hosted.
They are using GPL as a ploy to gain more fanbois, and sadly it may have worked if they were not generally hated by those that aren't already fanboy status.
This is the main reason I use my zune, but I know better than to trust Microsoft with my music that I want permanently so I go buy the music elsewhere if it was good. I really like the channel system and getting to keep up with lots of new music too.
I agree with this, and it is not like its a new issue to video games at all.
Crappy indie games from the Atari era killed the entire video game industry in America before. At least now we have better communication to get a check on the crappy games rather immediately.
Face, it girls notice shoes. Loose the Tevas with socks.
I wear my work boots all the time, but they have PVC glue on them and a good year worth of wear. Maybe I should wear socks and sandals so the correct message gets across.
Meeting drunk women is the best way. Their guard is down so they're honest and as a bonus you may just get laid after the first meeting. The only catch is remembering if she's a keeper or not the next day.
The trick there is to not be to drunk enough to forget come morning, but you give the illusion that you are.
Actually, as much of a PITA as Microsoft is, they've actually made the XNA toolkit available for free to indie developers who want to publish XBox Live games. It's comparatively easy to use, based on C#, and lets you produce a game for the PC and XBox Live at the same time. All you really have to do is set up the controls for both systems.
Actually, they let you produce a game for PC, Xbox Live and Zune Devices. There is no major distribution for the Zune yet but the codebase is there. I would hope that they add this in when they merge the Zune Marketplace and Xbox Market place when the Zune HD comes out.
On the other hand the media corporations may use it as a way to copyright a voice, even in a way that the original actors themselves can't sound like that out of the contracted uses.
On a similar note does anyone own Darth Vader's breath sound effect?
It's written like that to give major leeway into its interpretation. Basically they have created an indefinite loophole for allowing anything they damn well please.

John Negroponte is not African American.
Nor is he mentioned in the article.

Does this render you invincible to ground pokemon, that is unless they use non-ground attacks?
You are calling a game with one button combat COMPLEX?
One Button + Auto-Fire = Win
I will always like having my third party controllers for NES, SNES, N64, and PS2

If your considering taking major life-changing advice from 4chan at all, you may want to remove yourself from the gene pool.
Your looking for the slut/whore/sexually-active filter, just turn everything else off.
Solid rocket motors, however, tend to "go to hell all of a sudden" in a rather spectacular way. "Sucks to be you" is really their only failure mode.
Why is this so funny, if it actually happens it would be a tragedy.
Yet I can't get off the floor from the initial ROFL factor.

Now I remember why I am taking Philosophy, to get chicks.

Random selection based on
- Sex
- Age
- Geographic location
- Large important decisions (e.g. Family, yes/no?)
- A few shard interests
You missed one.
Where is the +1 Sad but true mod?

Only time will tell.
Someone mod this Insightful.
Oh that's lame, Firefox froze and I inadvertently hit AC on accident.

At least they could all be helping number crunch more, I think the DRM and Encryption communities will have a field day with that.
It's good to know I wasn't alone.
Getting whole discographies, or downloading a mix-folder (like a mix-tape but larger).
What are you talking about? E.T. is the greatest game of all time. Closely followed by the entire Virtual Boy library.
Even an archive of Myspace could be of interest to some future archaeologists.
Just as long as they don't get a an archive of 4chan, they may think lolcat was a correct dialect and all we had to eat was cheezburgers and cake.
