No one in or out of the field has ever been able to cite a game worthy of comparison with the great dramatists, poets, filmmakers, novelists and composers.
Didn't some University have an English class that studied the game BioShock in place of a text?
Considering I have never paid a late fee or interest on a credit card since college
You are paying the extra 3 or so percent that all the merchants increase their prices by to pay for the credit card fees. Now the fees go to the company who paid you the $10. At 3% and $10, they only need you to spend $334 before they make money on the deal.
I for one use YouTube to "try before I buy" and if I was going to buy something I might not, all thanks to YouTube!
That said, I do buy a reasonable amount of music online, around $500 worth over the last year, so I can see where they got that 14% statistic from.
I for one think that piracy is wrong, but there are some people who don't think like that. If they want more money they are going to have to provide a better service, especially by dropping the price. Thanks to YouTube I can decide that it is not worth paying $15 for an album, drop that to $5 and I (and many others) will probably buy it.
I'm tired of grammatically incompetent know-it-alls. You have two errors in your "correction." You need a comma before "the internets." Also, "the internets are full of tards" is the correct way to state that. Good lord, the internets are full of tards.
you should pay people for it or make it specifically opt-in.
Opt-in you say? You mean like by clicking the "Improve My experience" checkbox the first time you run Internet Explorer 8? which states next to it that:
Help Microsoft improve your online experience...allowing us to collect additional information about...the searches you do, websites you visit.
All there in plain English and not hidden behind 100s of pages of EULA. RTFA.
Well, I don't think there is any question about it. It can only be attributable to human error. This sort of thing has cropped up before and it has always been due to human error.
Go to Account, Account settings, Download your information.
It's multi choice, and as far as I can tell does not have a time limit and has unlimited retries. Not the most secure really.
This method of verifying users are who they say they are has been there at least for a few weeks. It is very annoying, I ended up deleting all my mafia wars friends =(. Good riddance I guess.
I'm sure his input will be on the high-end side of what most developers would consider consultation with end users
Intel doesn't even make consumer products though. Companies such as HP, Dell, Toshiba, etc. OEMs buy Intel's parts (and some other parts) and make a consumer product (a computer). I can understand OEMs wanting to be "cool", but Intel? Really?
How many people are going to buy AMD CPUs because AMD is cooler than Intel? Do people who care about "cool" even know the difference? I'm sure that people who know about CPUs care about two things. Speed and Price.
With 20mbps it is faster to buy a 4GB game on Steam and download it than it is to drive to the store and get a physical disk. You can also let multiple people use the internet without it going slow because someone else is streaming video, multiple people can stream video/play games online/etc at the same time.
It's easy enough to create a loop that checks if the content of the clipboard changes and if so detect if it is a screenshot of the "protected" image and if so change the clipboard to be storing something else.
Obviously there are other methods that anyone on here could think of but this is facebook we are talking about. I'm not sure some of these people even know what printscreen does.

The key difference here is that the "12 million" that he took is not a 12 million that they did not earn because of what he took.
I literally laughed out loud when I read the bit about "Zynga" and "worth 12 million".
Just because they are trying to sell them for 12 million doesn't make them worth that.
(I'm the AC)
Nope, the goal is to eventually memorize said password. That doesn't work too well when I only ever log in once per machine though.

Once you have sold all of your privacy, all the privacy you have left (none) is 100% protected.

You do know that every single bitcoin transaction is recorded publicly in the block chain, right? Wonderful solution that.

OTOH, going to 24 bits and using those extra bits to provide extra channels, I could totally see.
24 bit audio means 24 bits per sample per channel. You do not want to listen to music on 24 bit/sample shared amongst multiple channels.
So you want google to edit the html of the sites you visit to include a button?
You mean get Google to edit the google.com results page? I don't see why not.
This adds a block link next to the cached link on the results page.
little or no modification.
Little modification? It has completely different input devices.
Gif may be technically lossless, but only if you only want 256-colours. These days "lossless" means on 24-bit colour.
No 24 bit color gif you say?

It's not your profile picture, it's photos that are tagged of you. (and cropped to just have you in the photo)

What do you need more than 5 Mb/s for?

Yeah, paste sucks in chrome.
It works perfectly fine in Chrome 10.0.642.2 dev
And just how would IPv4 clients reply to packets sent that way?
This is a browser plugin, not javascript. It runs with the same privileges as Flash.
It is for n00bz like you, I'm running 9.0.597.47 beta.
What a n00b, I'm running 10.0.634.0 dev
I can finally paste into Slashdot comments. The future is wonderful.
