do you really think anybody cares about the limitations? i just want to play fun, good quality games. shit games are shit even if i buy them used. i have xbox online anyway so there's no difference it if phones home. in short, mountians out of molehills, you know what that means?
what people don't understand is that porn is a bad thing when there is too much exposure, so it does a lot of good for people to block their access or at least make it harder to access... too bad they'll never get any appreciation for it...
well there's only one gatekeeper platform. and if you are making iphone apps then you already pay $99 for a dev account so gatekeeper is included. and $99 isnt' that much considering how muhc time you're investing. so i think it is ok.
i don't understand and maybe I missed it in the news but there's no link in the summary... why was the XBone having a bad launch at E3? it seems like a cool product to me.
i'm so tired of people on the 'illegitimate president' rant because he's black. also, what's wrong witht he 17th amendment? directly elected senators, is that a problem?
It's an expression! Fact: MacBook airs are the highest value computer on the planet. Bang for your buck, low price too. Not true for ultrabooks that are rebranded net books! Cheap does not equal value. These are the facts, Sun.sorry you don't like them
I don't think gatekeeper means what you think it means. It's not a walled garden. It's not uac. It's a sensible anti malware tool. What, do you root for the bad guys now?
The only way to eliminate this risk would be to force the user into a walled garden. That may be feasible on smartphones and tablets, but it's not acceptable on workstations.
apple has successfully closed holes for this sort of stuff through gatekeeper and mac app store. gatekeeper has three settings, and at its most restricitve setting you can only run programs that have been registered wtih apple. medium setting throws a stern warning, and low setting is off.
the mac app store takes it one step further by porting the security of ios app store to mac.
no you can't because the kill switch is a log in screen. if you had an android app that could capture people's itunes accounts and change the passwords, you could do a lot more than brick some phones.
I don't think the government themselves want a kill switch, but they want ways for a user to flip a kill switch. so if you steal my iphone, i can flip a switch and brick it. there's not govt interference here, aside from PRISM which is operating in the background anyway.
research has shown that materials that go into black holes are converted to energy. This energy is re-radiated out from black holes, which is how we detect them. notice how the testing was done at an xray observatory. so yes, matter is destroyed but energy is created and all remains equal.
i hate hate hate when non-bicycles are in bicycle paths. i also hate hate hate when bikes or scooters are on sidewalks. this sidewalk's for regular walking, not for fancy walking! +1 if you get the reference.
but if you buy it, you can also resell it at any point to the dealer or a person or on craigslist. this is a sign of ownership. also, you pay a fixed amount, and once you pay off that amount you can keep it and maintain it as long as you like. this doesn't sound like renting it; this sounds like buying it.

no, nobody could stand up to SJ. he could tell obama or the nsa where to take a dump!
i don't see why we would want to hold back chimp scientists from doing their research?

makes no sense. if the whole point is to identify people, you would want a database that describes what they look like.
Misattribution is fraud.
masturbation is friend
this is why slashdot is going to pot. i post a factually correct comment and get cyberbullied
edward snowden is a traitor who revealed state secrets to the chinese. nuts to the chinese and nuts to him.

the govt is looking for kill switches - you mean like the kill switch that apple just introduced? another slam dunk.

well laws should be changed! they should be consistent with the laws of natural persons and the international bicyclists union.

Bicycle paths are for bicycles, asshole. would you like it if I drove on your lawn?
why is it hard to recommend buying a car? seems logical to me...
