There was a Medium post by the author, they stated they gained a steamworks account via a different exploit (which has also been fixed), which they haven't published.

I already have 'Atari: 80 Classic Games in One!' in my Steam library, which appears to have been removed from the Steam store 6 months ago.

Current ethernet adapters are quite easy to patch your own, if they were to get smaller isn't there quite a chance this would become impossible/require a soldering iron? Something that wouldn't be of favour to the people laying loads of ethernet throughout data-centres, offices etc.
In part this may be a consequence of something known as 'benevolent sexism'.
I read a research paper somewhere whereby an experiment was held, women were treated by men, as men had been shown to treat other men. In the end they found that most women believed the men who weren't treating them differently (benevolent sexism) were seen as hostile. Therefore it's possible that some women are so accustomed to benevolent sexism, that when entering a male environment, they struggle to differentiate equality from hostile sexism.
Can't find the exact paper, but various results come up around the term benevolent sexism explaining the theories.
I remember seeing coupons like this and guides how to produce them circulating on 4chan, atleast half a decade ago. Alot of people were using them to get steep discounts on PS3s as I recall.
Given pirating audio will always be possible (just use a microphone), is it possible that their new audio format will simply involve steganography to add purcharser identification to tracks. This would allow them to better identify, and perhaps prosecute all pirates (until they find a way of stripping the audio fingerprint). It seems alot more plausible than them actually trying a funky new drm (after Apple were compelled to remove drm from itunes music).
Additionally I would expect that malware authors find it easier to get around his ad filters than the major companies, perhaps he will next be arrested for distributing malware.
LyX can export directly to latex.tex code which should compile on online compilers. It may not be as convenient than a button to do it straight away but It should be possible to create a version of LyX without the LaTeX libs.
I imagine to directly compile using an online service, LyX would need to host it themselves or come to an agreement with a company who provides the service.
I'm currently using LYX to write my dissertation report, it does a good job of hiding the latex for basic structures, and you can press ctrl+L at any time if you wish to insert raw latex. My only issue I've had using LYX actually lies with the listings package for latex which isn't LYXs fault. (The listings packages syntax highlighting functionality doesn't easily support the highlighting of the '' in XML syntax without various hacks which temperamental results at best).
Although LYX could benefit from a dedicated editor for generating listings highlighting code for the latex preamble I suppose, however it would be a shame to do this without improving the listings package first.
I would use longer passwords, but multiple sites like to limit passwords to arbitrary lengths like 14 and 16 (live.com and slashdot.org last time i checked). What reason is there to have any password length limit (other than arbitrary passwords of like 100kb of data) if they should be storing them as salted hashes?
According to the nzherald article there was also a $120 deterrent fine per track.
Still comes to an incredibly low overall fine which is a moderate success I suppose.
Why can't these app sales be handled like brick and mortar stores. Microsoft sets a price which they sell licenses to apple, then apple can do what they like with said licenses as purchased.
And i'm fairly sure of the main UK broadband providers i've seen adverts for BT, Virgin Media, Talk Talk and PlusNet all advertising no limit (although its quite possible there are 'fair use' t&c's). Most providers just choose to traffic shape if you go over unreasonable daily limits (with virgin media this is during peak time).
On the topic of weird password requirements, my university has the weirdest password requirements i have come across to date (i'm assuming its due to some software they must use);
Note that passwords must follow these rules:
* must be 6, 7 or 8 characters in length
* must contain at least one numeric digit
* must NOT start with a numeric digit
* must contain only lower-case alphabetic letters and numeric digits (that is no punctuation characters).
* the first three characters of your password must not be identical
* the first three characters of your password must not equal sap or pass
* the first three characters of your password and login name must not be the same
Slashdot has a password length limit, iirc its 20. The input field for setting a password has a max length of 20 however the login field doesn't.
So when i last changed my password i was confused for a short while till i realised that i hadn't read the password guidelines.
To be honest i find that ~50% of websites that i try to use long passwords on are limited to around 20.

It appears these are smartphones for the developing world, do they have 4g yet? http://recode.net/2015/08/26/f...
Even worse, the 1080p model has the screen sticking out of the phone and the better looking model is only 720p. http://www.obiworldphone.com/

+ the actual google page has been around for atleast 6 months, it was posted to HN that long ago.
Doesn't seem to want to let me auth, US only?

Not even this one? http://i.imgur.com/PDKKIM8.jpg I would never actually buy train simulator 2012 but I did give me and a few friends a good laugh.

Or even how long does it take for projects to reach that milestone, they might just keep reworking them.

This seems to be the official thing about it because there's some stuff going around twitter that it's a lie. http://nj.gov/state/elections/2012-results/directive-email-voting.pdf
