  1. Re:EVE players fell for that? on EVE Online Ponzi Scheme Nets $50k Worth of In-Game Currency · · Score: 1

    This is not gambling. Gambling is where you are told there are two possible outcomes win/lose and there is some outside condition on which they are based.

    This is a scam. You are not told how the game works, or that the table is rigged.

    Because if you understood it fully then you are a scammer, not a victim. The only way to make money from a Ponzi scheme is to get in early, those who get in early are running the scam not victims.

    Looking at recent history it seems like they are very likely to fall for such a thing.

    asking undefined amount of people to meet in public is illegal in increasing number of countries.

    GP was not talking only about the UK.

    Right to peaceably assemble sound like something you have heard of ?

    I said near impossible not impossible.

    I am sure anyone could do the same in 99% of businesses. Get a maintenance uniform and go into an unused conference room, that would work almost everywhere.

    Why would it even be a problem if they use the same panel?

    Screen ratio is not design it is obvious, resolution is bound by price and rounded corners are again totally obvious.

    I would imagine I would want to see both trucks, at the very least be allowed to hire an impartial photographer to get some pictures.

    Anything you can walk into bestbuy and get is not obscure.

    They also changed the color of the Tab to make it look more similar than it really is.

    Of course it's best to have things displayed at the same size to best see similarities in the design, any border width, curvature of corners etc.

    Resizing the image changes border width, as it change the size of everything. They should have just submitted some actual tablets.

  11. Re:Apple just used special in house rulers! on Flawed Evidence In EU Apple vs. Samsung Case · · Score: 2

    Of course that is true. The silly x86 CPUs had to run those totally fair benchmarks in a PPC emulator.

    They also made the surround on the Tab darker to make it look more like the iPad. Submitting photoshoped images to the court should cost them their case.

    It is easy to put such a policy in place. It is near impossible to get people to actually follow that policy.

    Nope, just had to chase a verizon man out of my server room a couple weeks ago.

    The receptionist let him in because it said verizon on his jacket and someone kept letting him through doors after that. He was on the wrong floor and would have disconnected live equipment had I not chased him our with a rack rail.

    Clearly you just put the leads on crossbow bolts and fire them into the router.

    Anyone with a set of overalls a handtruck/cart and a cardboard box can get into pretty much any office.

    I hope you are doing the same or something similar with wired then. No locking switch ports by MAC address is not good enough. Dead easy to spoof the MAC address of the machine I unplugged to get my evil device in.

    Yet, it is still allowed and used in places that have Malaria. I am not sure who told all you nutters this BS but it needs to end.

    The point is it refutes the ACs comment about buying them and melting them down. Doing that would cost you money not make it.

    Black Ops is an activistion game, Valve just sells it via steam. This would be like blaming walmart since they sold box copies.

    You don't need the pilot to be willing to die. Just to be willing to move some packages into the secure area where you the terrorist nutjob take them onto a different flight.

  22. Re:How is this a problem? on Airline Pilots Allowed To Dodge Security Screening · · Score: 1

    That is not the problem.

    The issue is Mr. Terrorist could rent/steal/make a pilots uniform and get through the checkpoint then change into his terrorizing clothes before his flight.

  23. Re:How is this a problem? on Airline Pilots Allowed To Dodge Security Screening · · Score: 1

    You think the Tards Standing Around are going to be capable of doing that?

    You could probably get a reasonable pilot outfit from the nearest rental place and walk right on through.

    That is Activision's fault not Valve's.
    As far as I can tell all the Valve games let you host your own server.
    If you can host you own server you just kick/ban cheaters.
