The guy doesn't even know what pixel art is. It's a very specific type of digital art that involves creating images by manually placing each and every pixel by hand. It's comparable to the old ANSI art of the BBS days.
He's trying to claim that sprites from Street Fighter III and King of Fighters is pixel art, when it's certainly not. Those games are very obviously made using standard raster art techniques and tools.
Onite makes good batteries for various phones. I have a stock LG battery and two Onites for my phone and they work great, as good or slightly better than the official one.
It's a pointless, unproductive waste of time, and the fact that people get jollies out of deliberately aggravating other people bespeaks of a certain level of sociopathy.
Feeling pleasure from the misfortune of others is common in humour. Being the dominant, accepted form of humour in most societies, it's the opposite of sociopathy.
Ever since the Google+ marriage to YouTube if I click on a comment to see what it was in response to, it opens up a new tab and still doesn't show me the parent post. I'm using the latest version of Chromium and have YouTube whitelisted in my JavaScript blocker, so I don't know what the problem is.
Because they were considered a security hole. That was true, but only if you were using shady gadgets. If you want them back in Windows 8 you can use 8GadgetPack or better yet, use a different gadget engine like XWidget.
I don't have a problem with digital distribution, so long as companies cannot remove access to paid for content, hold it hostage and/or prevent me from making my own backups. gog.com is the only service which has done this correctly, in that I can download what I buy and write it to whatever media I want, ensuring that I can keep copies for as long as I please.
It's unfortunate that there are no video services that allow people to do the same. I suppose you could vidcap your purchases and burn those, but you shouldn't have to do that.
I challenge you to name one game where you can do everything that you should be able to do. Oh what, I can't travel to those mountains in the distance because it's just a skybox? Failure of a game. I can't jump in a jet and fly to another country? Failure of a game. I can't dig a hole in the ground as far as I want? Failure of a game.

That isn't anything I am willing to gamble my money on.
Maybe it isn't in the current "stable" release. I'm running nightly so perhaps it's just an omen for you right now.
You are incredibly naive if you believe that.
Don't forget that uninstallable "Pocket" add on that Mozilla has snuck into Firefox to sate their greed. That thing is a real piece of shit.
Anyone who wasn't born via c-section has fucked their own mother.
Yup.
I like what can be done with an hqx filter in an emulator (in my case, Nestopia).
Or feature set.

LOL!
Are you saying Hitler used pop-up ads then?
So do the Red Cross, NASA and cancer research centres.

I would go so far to say that Freelancer's keyboard/mouse flight set up surpasses flight stick controls. It was just that good.
Just wait until some hacker starts drawing images of gaping anuses and penises on your Etch-a-Sketch.
Enhance!
That isn't in dispute. As far as I can see, The Witcher 2 was being sold through gog.com since release day.
I can't find any information to support your claim.
Duh, stupid me. Of course it was on gog.com on day one. gog.com is a service run by the makers of The Witcher series.
Wasn't it up on gog.com on release day? If I recall correctly, it was one of the few "big" games that gog did get right away.
