  1. Interesting, I wonder who EA bought that domain from, EA's origin was launched in 2011, so Origin PC has had the name longer (2009 v 2011).

  2. 1st Million coins on Bitcoin Is Crashing (businessinsider.com) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    As long as Satoshi still controls the first million bitcoins I fear it cannot be taken seriously as the creator has the power to single handily effect the market. No bank or government is going to back something where 1 individual has set themselves up with such disruptive power.

  3. Uber is not ride-share, it's just another car for hire. I mean how many times are you sharing your Uber with a stranger?

    Company demands money to service out of warranty product. News at 11.

    Sure the courts are gonna slam them for their completely legal and common business practice.

  5. If you are getting constant BSODs you have a piece of bad hardware. It's pretty much a flat out lie now a days to say they are part of the windows experience.

  6. I love when people speak shit with such conviction. It makes reading posts such as yours far more amusing then they deserve to be.

    Are you ok with being wrong all the time. I mean you just stated your belief with such conviction while at the same time being so completely wrong. I mean this has been a thing for almost 20 years. (since at least 2000, not sure about NT4)

  8. That will be for hardware errors only, software errors will have an infrared screen o' death. It will be great for the blind as they will be able to feel the error.

    Sure there are RV's that are palaces. They cost about the same as a palace too. Those are not the RV's homeless people would have.

    Actually having an RV is nothing like having a home, as it is illegal to camp in your RV just anywhere outside of a campground, plus the lack of running water and basic sanitation (how long is your black water tank going to last before it's full, not like you can legally dump that anywhere). This means the police can force you to move when ever they want and nothing is there to stop them from confiscating your RV if they find you to be a nuisance.

  11. You're an idiot, and you seem to be making every excuse in the book, plus some that are so ridiculous as to be offensive.

  12. Idiot much? No it is not "just as good" it causes stress and developmental problems, and the fact most hotel rooms have no kitchen means poor nutrition. Along with the fact it is far more expensive in the long run thus depriving the family from saving for a permanent home.

    A little critical thinking on your part would stop you from posting such fiction.

    Well for one the Tesla's driving in Cali have applied for and received the DMV permit.

    I still don't get how LG is in any responsible for this, So he didn't get to play tech hero, hey maybe his skillz aren't all that. It's a discontinued model out of warranty, LG is under 0 obligation to provide him anything other then paid for service. I do see the sense of entitlement, I do not see the justification of anger at LG.
