Its still rocket science and that is a dangerous field, also the rotten old shuttles may be more complex, but at the end of the day they are strapped to the same style bottle rockets
Clerks are stupid, and slow, like the guy at food lion today who tried to sell me on a MVP card for XX seconds while I was buying a single roll of wax paper
if they offered a self service lane I would have been in it, aside from line time it would have taken 15 seconds to check out, but I got some retiree blabbling on about the mvp card for damn near a minuet, then wanted to fucking talk about the Titans over a 1.85$ single item purchase, while OMG, I was trying to get shit done
never mind the fuckwit at walmart that Frisbeed my eggs damn near 2 foot down the line while yappin to some other employee last week
yea I understand that after reading the website,but I still dont get why some dude putting together a kit is front page news, the story should be about the machine, not photos from someone who successfully followed instructions
course I cant see the original post but... it seems like a maker bot with a print buffer? ok fine cool I guess if you want it (I have not seen many uses for it other than toy models, boxes and the occasional hose fitting) but why are we all yippiee about someone putting together a kit?
also I think were done here, you either beleive sony is a god like entinty who became drunk with power over its users or you thin 100% of this is piracy ignoring the fact that they have had a neo-geo for the last number of years and are reaping the rewards of being assheaded about their precious 720p AMD-XP era console and cant move on
good question, but it did not stifle the creativity of the console
point is sony is looking for an excuse
it did not get cracked for nearly 4 years cause it had homebrew capability, although gimped, the remove that provision and OMFG its piracy!!!
4 years hardly, its been a large handful of months at best starting with the removal of linux on older consoles (sorry if you bought a newer one it was not in the deal) so its hardly a fair comparison, sony only gets screwed over when it screws its (limited per use) customers, and is so damn thickheaded it cant see that, the ball is unleashed sony is doomed, and fuck-em personally
they made plenty of games, just most of them sucked, so it was cracked so people could do something with their 200$ dust collector
besides that argument doesn't hold water, look at the DS, it was stupid easy to run homebrew and backup / pirate games, and you did not have to re crack it every firmware update. And yet it sold a ton of units along with tons of games
Sony was delusional, we are playstation there is no possible way we could have a library of suck! it must be piracy, it must be UMD, it must be blah blah blah. And when the parent is stomping around having a hissy fit how do you expect the child to act?
well I was given my psp because the owner was so bored with it due to the lack of non crap titles, I have only kept a grand total of 4 games that I like since I have had it in 2006, and there for quite a while it was my only console so I was buying and trading them in like magic cards.
so in answer to your question the feature that sony removed from the psp was quality software, something the ps1 and ps2 had no problem with
cause not that many people cared until sony started fucking around with its users, Its kind of like you buy a car with a decent stereo system in it, but one day GM just shows up and removes it while telling you to stick it up your ass
I dont know about the PS3, I refuse to pay previously 2 car payments and now 1 for a 6 year old gimped pc, but on the PSP 80% of its usefulness came from home brew, cause shit, what else were you going to do with it and its maybe 6 decent games?
well its not really new, there have been electic cars since there was cars, it was very economical for local delivery trucks and what not post war war I
my problem with it is, what has GM done since WWI to actually improve it? its still a basic electric motor and a fuckton of heavy batteries that suck a blistering amount of wattage out of the wall
it has better range yes, but at a much less of a load capacity from 1920
this is new and innovative? GM is a failure, and has been for 20+ years
I have been on the side of let them fail, cause shit man they will anyway were just pissing away a unimaginable amount of money to delay it
I had the 1.2 mbps service it was just fine, until it broke and I spent every night for 2 weeks fighting with india support, buying all new crap, rewiring my system 3 times, just to notice the fucking exchange box was wide open and half ripped apart 2 blocks down the street
another fine example is the time I was outside holding the cut and frayed end of the phone line in my hand and they refused to help me until I reset my modem, cause from their end they "showed no problems"
it works fine until it breaks, then good fucking luck

yea but you could do that for a at least a year now,this is just a new revision
and there is no mention of where to get this prized kit, its literally a collection of photos of someone putting it together

you can pretty much do that with any OS, just never use anything that is not on google's website and your good to go

fuck me cause you cant do simple math while calling someone an idiot?
ok then, please don't piss your pants over it trolltard
2010-1979 = 31
might want to get your basic math down before you go calling some one's dad an idiot
for a whole year ....
I tend to think we are undereducated, why else would they be selling 300$ netbooks with dinky storage, laughable ram and a gimped keyboard to us?
cause were stupid, that's why
since it only processes depth in 1 plane I would say no
I use it all the time for entering alphanumeric information at work and at home while programming

well the developing world is not buying 600$ consoles are they? (which is what it cost up till last year)
no one was really trying that hard for 3.5 of those 4 years, until they started removing features "just because"
sony's other current gen console has been gang rapped so many times they even removed the disc drive

fuck off
