    The Ouya doesn't offer a legal access to those games, even though some of them should have been in the public domain for some time by now.

  5. What do you suggest?

  6. You'll notice this in all countries where religion is close to state function.

    Like the USA which has "In God we trust" on their currency.

    I have the first version of the GameCube with component video output, I don't think the cable has anything special inside it.

    Call it DevNull. Because that's what will eventually happen when you store your data "in the cloud".

    You shouldn't have sold your Wii. It makes a fantastic low-cost, low-power system to emulate older systems including a few arcade games.

    I just wish there was more arcade/Neo-Geo titles in their library.

    It was "borrowed" from another Slashdot user. You can borrow it too if you want. The more people use it, the funnier it will be.

    Hopefully the NSA guys are bright enough to filter out the exact same meaningless sentence billions of times.

    The way you said it, BitCoins were only used to buy drugs.

  14. Re:They (probably) don't need to on Thailand Government Declares Bitcoin Illegal · · Score: 0

    Since I don't buy or sell illegal drugs I honestly cannot conceive of any circumstance under which I would use it.

    Would you like a side order of spam with your FUD?

  15. Re:Can any government really stop BitCoin? on Thailand Government Declares Bitcoin Illegal · · Score: 1

    Singapore has banned jehovas witnesses magazines.

    You say that like it's a bad thing.

  16. Can any government really stop BitCoin? on Thailand Government Declares Bitcoin Illegal · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Kids are always curious about things their parents forbid. Adults are always curious about things their government forbid.

    The Streisand effect on BitCoin is going to be huge.

    There's still cavemen in 2013?

    I think the current Slashdot quote is appropriate:

  23. Apple's peach recognition.

  24. Re:On the other hand on Hackers Using Bots, Scripts To Lock Down Restaurant Reservations · · Score: 5, Funny

    Please, we're talking about fancy restaurants here. It's not just plain marketing bullshit. It's Lobster Thermidor aux crevettes with a Mornay sauce, garnished with truffle pâté, brandy and a fried egg on top and bullshit.

  25. There is no physics involved on The Physics of the World's Fastest Man · · Score: 2

    The guy is simply pushing himself so hard he's almost escaping The Matrix.
