There were pretty good games (good gameplay, bad graphics) for even the TRS-80 model I. There was a company called big-five that made low res clones of robotron, asteroids, space invaders and other games (with different titles of course).
Inflammatory title of course, it implies that the people manning the desks are in high school or of high school age not just adults that only went to high school.
US oil is harder to refine and will choke refinery that is not designed for it. That being said it is used in pretty much every purpose that middle east oil is used for, it is just refined in the US and used here. The US uses more gas then diesel so we also have refineries that crack down more of the diesel into gas (which is an inefficient process because diesel is more energy efficient to start out with).
And that is the problem. An example:
Music playlist patent on an ipod like device. It is obvious but I am ok with that patent for the first time if it was not used before. But then to allow a new FRESH patent when you put this on a built in car stereo is crazy. It is more then obvious, it has been done, just not there. Once the car stereo had a big enough computer, there was no real 'invention' to allow a patent on that item.

Wrong. Bitcoin can be anonymous. You can buy Bitcoin from a person for cash, have it sent to a fresh public key and wallet , and send it to whomever you want. Only if you give them info on yourself can it be traced back to you. Used correctly, TOR together with Bitcoin and you are anonymous.
They have a pretty good cyclist. I am sure they have optimized the gear ratios, the cyclist, the cyclist power to weight ratio and just about everything just to get this far. Maybe with an extensive search they may find a better cyclist, but they are not going to be much better.
It is not Wikipedia getting involved, it is Jimmy Wales. There is no action being done by Wikipedia.
I do not think Wikipedia should get involved in this one either but have no problem with Jimmy Wales (even as the head of Wikipedia) doing so, as long ask Wikipedia is not used in the process. The Sopa protest made sense as it effected Wikipedia directly.
I would say it is just speculation. The biggest Bitcoin sites are NOT blocked by microsoft such as bitcointalk.org and mtgox.com. Microsoft is not scanning for bitcoin or bitcoin addresses alone to make this (wrong) call. There has to be something more to it.
The idea of using the A-10 is that the bullets would hit the above surface part of the boat, not the underwater 'pontoons' . I do not think the above surface part would survive (or those within it) after being hit by the bullets from an A-10.
I don't think you have followed this issue.
Google initially followed some of China's requests but then stopped, closed up shop in China and redirected requests to its HK site that is not censored.. Now the Chinese government is using it's firewall to block (censor) google searches to that site. Google is not censoring at all. And the government of China is making google look unreliable to it's customers who are seeing disconnects.

It will not work long term. The big game studios and makers have enjoyed some of the largest profits in history without doing this. The pirate 'customer' now will have a better product then the paid customer.
Sometimes companies fail to understand the ecosystem effect of having these used sellers out there. The used sellers make a small amount of money, but they bring money back to the consumer who spends it on NEW games and the used seller may bring in a second new customer that eventually buys full priced games as well. Just because a company Gamefly makes a little money, does not mean that the money was sucked out of Sony. With Gamefly (and like companies) in the gaming ecosystem, Sony may make MORE money. Too bad they do not understand this.
I also got many of these calls at my store. Unfortunately I had to take them as I had a few legitimate callers using the service. Each time it took about 10 minutes (because the process was so slow) to tell them we do not accept credit cards through any contact that did not start face to face. We were not a mail order house.
The dealer I went to had a $4000 markup over MSRP on it. I would have been interested at invoice (around $2000 off of MSRP). Despite the Volts flaws I wanted the all electric range that it provided. The bad dealer experience soured me enough to GM to give them less consideration when I bought my new vehicle. I am sure the dealers looked at the Volt as way to make a quick buck when they saw the Prius selling over list price but the Volt just is not good enough.
The expected MPG was near Prius levels but in end it was 15% less. The expected price after the federal credit was $30k, but in the end it was closer to $35k. The range was expected at 40 miles but ended up being less then 35.
Or even more infuriating....
Clean coal.
Those two words should not be allowed NEAR each other in a pro-coal ad until at least 5% of the coal industry is actually clean.

There is some recycling done that way (with a shredder) but usually batteries are removed first and recycled separately.

The Nexus Q is a media box for the TV, not a tablet so it is really competing with the $99 Apple TV not the $399 iPad.

Yea, really! An X2 (7990?) would be a great card even if it was limited to 800mhz save power/heat.

Well not really. We had demo parties in the USA demoing the Amiga demo's from Germany.

Agreed. $20 an hour is less then what trash collectors and janitors around here. $30 seems like it would be the starting point for this work.
