But aren't these risks, for the most part, kind of obvious? It's sort of like saying your employer might exploit you for free labor from your unpaid internship. Duh!
I always thought pre-installed crap was called "shovelware." As in, it's shoveled on there not for functionality's sake, but so some programmer can get a bonus.
You're making this too complicated! Hell, I don't care if you win or lose Click the President, I don't even care if anyone plays it. It's entirely up to the player to decide whether the result is meaningful.
But wireless contracts tend to be the same price whether you're paying off a loan or not; in other words, you're just wasting a lot of money if you didn't get a phone+contract from your carrier.
I never saw the Nexus One promoted, nor a link to the store anywhere (except perhaps on Slashdot.) Google has used their pageviews to promote other products and services, for example their ads for Chrome.
Could it be the reason Nexus One didn't succeed was simply a lack of promotion?
Yes. That's why in my bathroom you have to climb up a ladder to get to the toilet seat, then hang on for dear life for fear of falling into the swimming-pool sized bowl.
It also has a bidet function, which isn't wimpy and French; it's got a firehose pump powered by a small nuclear plant.
So we're not allowed to ask questions that relate to the topic? See, if that were the case, then there were a LOT of off topic posts about Java when Oracle bought Sun. Yet they were NOT modded that way.
While living in your mother's basement may be a good strategy for your average Slashdotter, it's not the best idea for humans over a very long period of time.

Of course it's "open," you just have to jailbreak it first!

Flamethrowers, huh? Wouldn't it be easier just to use a Bic?
With all the violence and protests in Oakland, a lot of pot is needed to help everyone just mellow out, man.
Now who's coming to the Phish concert with me?
I totally invented this "game" concept back in 1998 with Click the President. (Obviously, it's been updated twice since then.)
Now, who do I sue over this...

But isn't it better to trust people with freedom than to treat everyone like criminals?
By any chance, is "deh" your password?

I'm just not following your logic here.
Hey, Motorola was around long before semiconductors.
Topic is about folks at Black Cat Games getting hired by Valve, so is my post.
So that isn't it. Any other ideas?
I should have guessed, it's been years and I haven't heard much.
(BTW, who the hell modded my post offtopic!?)
Does this mean Nightblade is officially canceled?
So is this what that "UFO" was that everyone was talking about the other day?
Could you clarify what "abuse" you're referring to? Something does not compute here.
You've got to start somewhere. Pretty soon, we'll invent the moon wheel!

Correct!
As we're referring to IE, the antecedent of your proposition is false therefore the consequent does not apply.
IE 7 and 8 are not usable, but that has nothing to do with Wine.
...for taking shortcuts.
