I nearly fell out of my chair parsing it as him giving the music industry as an example of someone who HAS adapted quickly. I think the newspaper industry in general has been pretty good at it(?).
The Pirate Party does not run Pirate Bay. The Pirate Bay was started by members of the Piracy Bureau, not the Pirate Party. The two are not affiliated.
Indeed and while you wait for him to want to stop, keep inviting him to come along to stuff you do. You know he'll decline every time but keep doing it anyway so he knows there's an alternative waiting for him.
It's interesting that he says player retention improved a lot when they added PvP. I wouldn't have thought that would be a major selling point. I haven't played AoC so I'm not sure what's going on with it. Is it a case of PvP giving players at max level something to do where there previously wasn't anything/much?
Obviously it's not universal to everyone in that age group, but ask anyone who's been hiring for decades- all generations have their quirks. The latest are the worst.
Isn't that the case for all values of latest as time goes on though?;)
Imagine what the grandchildren of the millenials will be like!
The reviews have been very good for the Star Trek movie as well, more so than for Wolverine. Should have some impact for people who aren't necessarily old fans at least.

Hey it's not like Axl Roses career suffered or went out of vogue from polishing Chinese Democracy for 10+ years.
Well at least he didn't get hit by a bus.
Aah CIH. I remember sitting up late at night the evening before April 26th. It was 1 or 2 years after the virus first hit so I wasn't overly concerend but I had it in the back of my mind since it had been on the news again that day. Sure enough at midnight my computer froze, woooops! I hit the power button as fast as I could and then I waited 24 hours before I dared try turning it on again. No luck, computer was dead. I'm not sure if the service people did some recovery with the hard drive or if I hit the button fast enough but all the data was still there when I got it back with a new motherboard. I started using antivirus after that(!).
On the other hand, TPB is used mostly (almost exclusively I'd say) to exchange music and videos illegally.
Do you know this for a fact? One of the defendants said during the trial that this is actually not the case. I can't find the quote now and it was in a swedish article anyway so make of that what you will. I just think you should be careful about stating things you don't really know enough about as facts.
Your post is a whoosh one but even then, if you'd read the article you would have noticed they were found guilty of helping others commit copyright violations, not copyright infringement.
You can say what you want about the story, plot, writers and what have you of the Watchmen but you can't call her costume crummy expect to be taken seriously.
It's not their songwriter. It's the president of some fan club of theirs. He has the same last name as one of the singers (who wasn't a songwriter, or at least not a main one) but I don't know if he's related. I'm guessing since he seems to be Australian he's just some freak who took the name as a tribute or whatever. WTF is someone like that doing on that thank you list?
It'll build strength and calluses on your fingertips indeed. Which is another problem with making a game with a real guitar controller. Playing guitar hurts. When you first start, you basically flay away the skin on your fingertips and only after you develop calluses are you able to play for more than a short time without severe discomfort. How many people are going to want to go through that in order to play when they can just use a normal controller?
Do you know for a fact the vast majority of the content indexed at TPB is copyrighted? I personally don't know one way or the other but TPB says that's not the case and the prosecution hasn't been able to show otherwise.
A fair point but part of the equation is also that a film gives you two hours of entertainment whereas a game gives you perhaps 20-50+ hours.
Depends on the film. Most of the films I buy give me 50+ hours of entertainment, though I take it in 2-3 minute bits a few times a day (not including fast fowarding to the right parts).

You already have two wars going on, shouldn't that be enough?

It would have to be with two crossed bones.

It's not like people are never fooled by hype or even by a demo that the full game doesn't live up to. Well I've been enough times at least.

Is (was?) your girlfriend a cybernetic creation tired of her manufactured so called life?
Personally I liked Robot Wars more. The robot who lives, wins. That's a simple scoring system too.

Maybe he's not a big loss to you or me or to society in general but he might be to his mother, father, sister or brother.

Isn't this what renting something is?

You can always use a spell checker. Red lines under the mistake is the next best thing to red rings around them. Allegedly.
