    ... by comparing their web-browsing history to publicly available information on social networks.

    Well, there's your problem. STOP USING SOCIAL NETWORKS.

    Maybe it's warm ice? Ever thought of that?

  5. That's because the PC version of FF XI was more or less a PS2 emulator to run the PS2 version. That's why mouse support felt tacked-on, because it was. I didn't use the mouse in FF XI either.

  6. I guess he either never noticed or never wondered what it meant. Maybe he was the first player who was talking to him via the translator.

    Give us proof that the crack and the warming started before the industrial revolution and we'll believe you.

    Does it matter why the ship is leaking water? Wether it's your fault or not, wouldn't you want to prevent it from sinking?

  10. What the hell is copie/pâte?

  11. And FF XIV allows players from different systems to play together on the same server too. Even better, there's a built-in tool to auto-translate words (limited to a dictionary of words and pre-made sentences) into the language of the other players. Confused the hell out of a Japanese player when I told him, via the translator, that I did not speak Japanese. He saw that in Japanese via the translator and tried to send me sentences made in Japanese characters instead.

    Languages may evolve, but the mainstream media is diluting the meaning of one word when more precise words already exist.

    Car analogy time: the media now uses the word "cars" when talking about trucks, buses, trains, submarines, helicopters, planes and even spaceships. They're all "cars" now.

  13. Re:this patent requires "write to BLANK media" on Patent Troll With Good Record in Past Sues Netflix, SoundCloud, Vimeo, Others Over Offline Downloads (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 2

    But a folder is not "blank media", it's "an empty area of an already-formatted and currently-in-use media".

    Ok, I clicked 'Accept' to all the prompts, can you tell me the results of the diagnosis?

    Let's give up already. The mainstream media is appropriating another word and diluting its meaning. Just like computer, hacker, etc.
