A person in my neighborhood was just arrested in his home on suspicion of dealing drugs, the police took EVERYTHING in his house and garage, including his car and motorcycle, his guns (which he owned legally *shock/horror*) his TV, computers, furniture. The dude wasn't even convicted or tried by jury, but the police completely emptied his house. I wonder how relevant his lazy boy and his mattress have to do with selling weed.
The industry workaround for "owned rendering devices" is in licensing the use of the rendering device, but ownership will not be given, expressed or implied in the new EULA on your smartphone contract. Actually, I'm curious as to how that works out currently, with people effectively renting their devices from service providers, how much ownership of the device can you actually claim?
I remember when I bought portal because of the massive hype machine behind it. All I can say is, the cake is indeed a lie. After beating the game in about 45 minutes I was pretty pissed.
I have a love/hate thing with Grid autosport. I got it free from intel when I bought my haswell i5. My main issue is the handling in the drift series is wonky. I feel like each time I restart a race, the car has a completely different steering ratio and suspension set up. I never find the sweet spot (perfect balance between out of control and sliding beautifully around the apex) when drifting. That is ok though, because the rest of the game plays really well, and I like that is actually says my name when I log in. "Welcome back, Joe!" gives me a chill everytime.
I miss GT2 and GT3 a-spec. Those were my favorite console racers of all time, besides the colin mcrae rally series (pre-dirt era, dirt is a bro racer that can go fuck off).
The portions of food we eat in the US are ridiculous. And the quality of food, particularly for the poor, is nutritionally abysmal. More jobs than ever before entail sitting on our ass for extended periods of time and for longer hours than in the past. Our entertainment also tends to consist of sitting on our ass even more. So it's probably a combination of the three.
I still don't get why portion size is so big, considering that 40 percent of our food is thrown in the fucking trash.
The problem with this is the minute we start selling food as a medicine, there will be even MORE fatties. Because "I can eat as much of this as I want, because it's GOOD for me!" The key to not being a big mclargehhuge is to eat less calories, OR burn MORE than you're taking in (that requires not sitting on your couch playing COD 18 hours a day)
Seriously the only thing keeping companies like Monster Cable and Beats in business is the complete lack of knowledge of the average consumer. That a $40 MonsterCable is a $5 cable on amazon, or that an $80 pair of Grado Headphones sound immensely better than the $300+ Beats. Stop buying crap just because it costs more, idiots!
Organic labels have to be certified by the USDA, and there are other independent Organic Certification Organizations as well if you don't trust the USDA to know the difference. What you mean to say is that there is no regulation for labeling a food as " all natural". You can say that on ANY food product. Really, I'm not making this up. In order to be labeled Organic your product has to meet a whole metric butt load of requirements, more so if you choose to get certified by one of the independent orgs.
Can you imagine the amount of tax revenue lost if the FDA banned cigarettes? All that money would suddenly be going into legitimate criminals' hands on the black market instead of the criminals' at big tobacco.

You mean mp3 players. Anyone who calls an mp3 player an "mp3" is too old to care what the difference is.
Yes the world would be a better place if we could all just play nice.

Yeah it's not like we live in a SOCIETY or anything.

The people bitching about remakes and nostalgia raping are not the ones buying the shit.

I paid $80 plus tax for my sr80i series phones on amazon. It was a sale, but still cheap and best sounding phones I've ever had on my ear holes.
What about flying a swarm of drone-like propulsion engines that can attach to an NEO and push it in a direction with thrusters?

Well played. I hereby ban all content!
So all computers, cell phones, tablets, any audio/visual recording equipment should stop being sold by amazon based on this premise, yeah?
I would postulate that the majority of pro sports organizations are at least as corrupt as the MLB, if not more so.

With enough money and boots on the ground, I could drum up consensus that the sky is in fact green, and that the moon is made of cream cheese.

That word "force"... it means something. I'm not sure what though.
Gubmint don't care 'bout nobody.

Instead of spending your days posting your stupid host file lectures on slashdot, why don't you find an audience that actually gives a fuck?
Calling something a fact doesn't make it one, dipshit.
