So this is a different approach that the purported sonofusion experiments? And the Pons & Fleishman's metal crystaline lattice apparatus? And it's not similar to Philo T Farsnworth's electrical confinement experiments at ITT in the 60's?
Man, you modern Apaches are a bunch of pussies nowadays!
In the days of Geronimo they would've laid siege to Activision's headquarters and shot the place up.
Of course, this is the same bunch of milquetoasts who are whining at Yale to "pretty please give us back the skull of our ancestor that your president's grandfather grave-robbed". If they had the balls their ancestors had, they'd just take the damn thing back and kill anybody that stood in their way. (I smell a screenplay somewhere in that. "Rambo pt IV" anyone?)

Hey guys,
I interviewed for a guerilla marketing business in San Francisco that targeted web forums.
I was told that if I accepted the job, I was to have at LEAST 50 identities on as many forums as I could muster (they wanted 100 eventually), with a goal of 5 posts an hour. The posts had to be well thought out, and the idea was that I was to establish multiple identities with a history on the forums, so that when the timing was right a well written but subtly placed marketing post could be finessed in. And regular visitors would recognize the post as coming from a long time poster.
They had 12 people working there full time, and were hiring 10 more. You do the math. No wait, I'll do it for you: that's 880 posts a day (if minimum was met). However he said the better ones could do around 8 or 10 an hour. And they had different "verticals" so there was the sports guy, and the games guy, the hentai, excuse me I mean anime guy, etc.
But the most critical point was this: develop and integrate the identity. No random "HEY EB GAMES IS AWESOME BUY THIS" stuff.
Yeah just imagine, a couple buys a house, pays it off and lives in it for thirty years. Some developer pays off the local city council to claim the neighborhood is blighted, and they're forced to sell for pennies on the dollar. Everybody wins, corrupt politicians, greedy developers, and oh, maybe not the lil' old retired ladies, sucks to be them. nothing bad could ever come from this.
They should eminent domain his ass on that patent. It's not like he was using it. (Actually, yes, I am aware that the submitter of the patent has passed away and that it is his heirs that are pushing this. They have less of a legitmate claim than the original applicant did.)

Whoops, I read the title as "Sony to bundle UXBs with DVDs". My bad.
Go here. Zoom in all the way. What do you see? Any thinking person can see that this is a ridiculous liberal hoax.

I always thought the name "malicious software removal tool" was amusingly ambiguous.
thousands confused...
There, I fixed it for you.
What, no trackball?!!! You lamer. How am I supposed to play Centipede?!!!
The other half are so dumb they take everything at face value.
You are the one person exactly on the cusp.

Kinda spooky.
Didn't take the job. It was a fucking mill.

I thought we sold "fair use" a while ago for three magic beans and some DVDs.
How much CO2 do I need to release making water vapor to shut both you idiots up permanently?!!
Just build a proper breeder reactor program, you stupid nancies!
Sony's got to cut back to the bone to survive because you piratical sons-of-bitches aren't buying enough Ricky Martin CDs!!
Yet strangely, valve nipples will give you fourteen pages of mostly-relevant images, with no spurious mammalian protuberances to be found.
