Doctorow will be disappointed the ECJ primarily a political court, when the court thinks it is in the best interest of the EU they'll ignore certain parts of EU law to preserve the political purity of the EU.
So if the EC bigwigs get behind this stupidity, then the courts are much more likely to side with them even if the law is stupid.
What youtube has very publically fucked with its site repeatedly over the last year or so adding unwanted redesigns and functionality. Their latest idiot functionality is to make the subscription list page less useful by applying some dipshit algorithm to show interesting content. Never mind they have at least two other pages that do that.
Their other recent brainwave is to kill off Vevo and other artist pages by combining several distinct accounts into one "youtube official" feed per artist and removing the distinct ones from the users subscriptions. This may be appropriate where the user doesn't subscribe to all the various "official" accounts, but is entirely pointless otherwise, and breaks the fundamental concept - don't fuck with a users subscriptions.
You'll notice their idiot updates have been against users who don't use the site the way they want them to use the site.
If it ain't broke, don't fuck with it!
Something a lot of sites & software companies coulda/shoulda learnt by now...
Yes - but at the time - which is the only important part they couldn't hence the 2.5D. Build Engine could kinda 3d stack, but Duke3D had very careful level design in the movie theatre for example to hide this. The Doom engine couldn't. Doesn't matter if later Doom compatible engines fixed this and added true 3d look around. The way the maps are made only allowed for one floor.
I remember on 3d shooter by epic that faked a descent style game in a doom style engine including one tunnel section which had a crossover which one could fall down if not paying attention or use as a vertical short cut. Ah - Radix beyond the Void from '95 played better than Terminal velocity, worse than Descent. But a decent shooter.
Can someone from the UK please explain to me the reason a 'TV' license still exists? It's not the 1950's!
Because the BBC makes a big play of being free from government interference & claims to be impartial.
You'll note the 2nd is complete and utter BS and the first isn't always true.
What the BBC forgot - Clarkson/May/Hammond Top Gear was basically Last of the Summer Wine with Cars & decent locations & slick production.
The got the cars/locations/production about right but got the chemistry wrong & went with Chris Evans purile humour. Matt LeBlanc seemed to get it, but was badly let down.
They aren't designed to be failures as such, just inadequate enough that people will upgrade for new features (no matter how irrelevant) and to keep the supplier receiving support payments, and training fees.

The only new feature they need to implement in Windows 10 is the one that unfucks the UI and reverts to Windows 7.
Other useful features would involve removing the dire windows store, UWP apps, the new settings bullshit and reverting to control panel.
We disabled TLS 1.0 & 1.1 to kill off the people using Exploder and get them to use a decent browser... Please just kill of Internet Explorer already!

That was one of the biggest complaints about the film, how coldly kier dullea played bowman
Actually HG Wells' First Men In the Moon got there already. Also see the 60s film adaptation which tied in the Apollo and the recent BBC remake.
Yep, my doc reckoned, swimming helps & playing something like basketball so I can see why a roller coaster would help.
VMWare workstation was one I used on W2K prior to deploying VMs else where.

yeah but the protocol & multdevice screw with consistent transfer rate you need for video. For just about anything else usb3+ is fine.
What about all of us who can't wear watches because they just go bonkers/wrong?
There are no prequels, and this follow on trilogy won't exist either.
Just like the matrix sequels don't exist...
hopscotch on ipad is aimed at teaching kids to program visually

You know like most big software out there...
Come on it took ages for perl4 to die... This is normal.
She would never pass the credit check would be the main reason.
Our american IT director had a hell of a job getting a UK phone as no one would give him a contract, he went prepaid in the end.
I don't what planet you've been on, but reinstalling windows from scratch has been standard practice since win95 for anytime windows shits its panties
Yes - but we should not have to any of this.
All this was forced by the google+ BS, and should never have happened period.
I thought this was well known, just unofficial.
Hell, it even made a Tom Clancy novel!
It sounds like a lovely idea but unfortunately I once spent a week in hospital and learnt to sleep with lights blazing...
subtitles, and multiple/alternate streams
Because I trust those companies less than idiots like ubisoft?
