Also, this guy had nothing to do with the development of either of the games. He's the author of a book about Blizzard.
what do you expect from me? I didn't read the article or the summary. I've never played WoW or diablo. So I just try to ask Qs that appear informed. Like I do at work.
taxes are a good option actually. It's seamless in that it doesn't add an additional barrier. also, increasing the gold farming etc, then taking a cut of that too. income taxes! i like it.
yes and no... I like XMir quite a lot. Also, Weyland has a lot of potential. It's fine for open source Chromium to support it, but I'm wary of Google getting its meathooks into the project.
So was the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850. What's your point?
...which was overturned by a constitutional amendment. see how these things work? no shenanigans. you should see the abraham lincoln movie. it lays things out super clearly.
because obama is president and the president has a lot of sway over implementation issues, since the departments of health and human services, or whoever will be ultimately administering this program, is in the executive branch.
dude, politics is messy and there are always games to get laws passed. but regardless, this one passed and is law of the land. so, you can file a suit and get it to the supreme court so they nullify it, or you can vote for legislative representatives who will promulgate a law repealing it, or you can vote for a president that will support the repeal process and make use of executive orders for additional effect. now stfu, seriously.
ACA was passed in the house, passed in the senate, signed by the president, and upheld by the supreme court. it is law. don't like it? make a new law. otherwise stfu and grow a pair.
how did I belittle? I sympathized with the dude who obviously had a harrowing experience! you're right I'm forgiving SJ his a-hole-ness, because he was a great man. no fanboi-ism, just facts.
such a stressful story! My blood pressure was up just reading it. Imagine being caught in SJ's whithering gaze! The scary part is that when he told people "you f'd my company" that was the nice time, and other times he became unglued! Then to have to sit there in the audience, knowing there is nothing you can do! I would have been quaking in my boots.
the interesting thing is it didn't go into too much depth about iOS. in the early years SJ kept insisting to miniaturize OSX, but at some point they obv switched. there must be a story there!
actually I don't think there's much tier-1 commentary about being a DB or not. As a first cut you can be good about the big stuff but be an annoying douche about it. better than playing GTA V all day in ur undies.
SciAm was getting exactly what it deserves. But now apparently they can't take their own medicine, so they've decided to stifle dissent. Well, that's nice. It's their choice. But it's not exactly going to win them any friends. I stopped buying it years ago, because of its obviously biased reporting. I don't feel the need to pay for somebody's propaganda.
That's sad, though, because it used to be one of my favorite magazines.
no need to worry, because this story is about popular science. the scientific american story was like weeks ago.
to be honest, i never quite understood all that BSD/Mach stuff. what exactly is a kernel vs a linux or operating system? how can something be both bsd and mach, but not unix? all I know is there's a command prompt and it's not dos, so... case in point.
it's clear to me that the issue isn't with science itself, or how it's "done" in some sort of ontological sense. the issue is with how people perceive science, and how they perceive others' perceptions of science to be. These meta-perceptions are really what the whole issue is about.
For a comment to further scientific discourse, not only does it have to contribute a constructive thought, but others need to perceive it as constructive and build further on it. Web comments are often exactly the opposite - people make a mental impression of your comment without fully trying to comprehend (or even read!) it, and respond based on that. So you get what we have here today. Trolls, shills, pedants, and grammar nazis.
Actually, my favorite comments are at the right-wing rag Daily Caller. Every single comment thread devolves into one party accusing the other party of being closet democrats.
As far as XBox One and PS4, those are closer to Steam's audience, but in the age of having multiple consoles, I don't see it cutting into their sales much.
I don't have any consoles, much less multiple consoles.

The scanner also can handle airplane wings and shipping containers, which means there may be possible anti-terrorism uses in the future."
Finally! Somebody is thinking of the children!
if you were to remake WoW, how would you incorporate micropayments in a way that preserved the gameplay?

Makes you wonder what we'll miss in the night sky. If I were an alien that read slashdot, I would know that the time to strike us now!
nope it's completely different. have you ever used either ios or osx?

ok, so you're saying I'm wrong? OSX does not have a BSD Mach kernel?

outside the building - in the public square! no more back rooms or front rooms for that matter! let's get the elements in on this.
