  1. Re:Their stuff sounds worse than DRM on Stardock Evaluates DRM Complaints, Updates Gamer's Bill of Rights · · Score: 1

    Incorrect. You don't have to have Impulse or the old Stardock client open to run Stardock games.

    You do have to have it open to download them & install them, but that is kinda the whole freaking point of Impulse.

    After the game is installed & validated you can uninstall Impulse & the games that you have installed will work just fine. In most cases you can even get updates from the dev's website instead of Impulse / Stardock. Try it if you don't believe me.

    Yeah I know man, I was teasing cause you're stuck with your console's flavor of DRM unless you hardmod it. I was assuming that they were using console gamers as part of the "we don't mind DRM vote" since they buy them so readily. Hell, they probably count me in that number since I have a PS2 & Saturn that I never play.

    Uh, start voting out every incumbent till you get ones you like.

    Personally, I hope they bankrupt themselves. Maybe they will actually learn something.

    Honest question. Is every other person in the UK a functional retard like this lady apparently is? Are you getting the government you deserve?

    I'd pay $5 more for no DRM. As it is now I won't buy it at all.

    That very well could be an improvement over the next 4 years.

    He's not a shill, but he does run his own indie game studio.

    "When the choices made by religious southern fundamentalists end up slowly eroding my way of life because people who should have known better were too apathetic to vote, I get a little irritated"

    Funny, every time I hear about the UK putting up more cameras & spying on more & more of their subjects I think the same thing.

    p.s. I'm in the Southeast US & I don't like fundies either, voting against them at every opportunity.

    One shot for every time they completely avoid the question.

    You're correct, I had read or heard somewhere that he had actually endorsed all 4 of the major 3rd party candidates, but Wikipedia says that didn't actually happen. Thanks for the info.

    I must be a moron because I have no idea why you think that the word historical has an important context in my previous response.

    A message to who? I'm don't think I'm incorrect in thinking that Dr. Paul would rather you vote for Barr than write him in.

    You know what would really send a message? For the LP to get federal funds for the next election cycle.

    I'm just saying.

    No doubt. If somehow he is elected, McCain will be the William Henry Harrison of our time.

  25. Barr on Internet Co-inventor Vint Cerf Endorses Obama · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I'm voting for Barr because neither one of the Republicrat candidates represent my views.

    It is my belief that representing you views is the only reason you should vote for any candidate, but the voting population has been gamed for so long they are like Pavlov's dog.
