One could make the argument that your license to the game (made under its publisher's copyright) does not include format shifting from the Wii disks to the emulator's HD. In the US at least, I don't think that particular argument has ever been made in Court. Not that I'd agree with it, but it still could be made.
Sadly, if you ask people why they're not buying Blackberries I highly doubt it has anything to do with their actions in India and a lot to do with better alternatives appearing.
For the most part the hardware is decent (its underpowered, but the keyboards are pretty good). They're cheap; you can get the flagship blackberry for $99. RIM's actually done a decent job of shoehorning in more "consumer" features like media apps and the like (considering what they were beginning with). Also they're cheap. Prior to the iPhone, Blackberry was the image of smartphones for a lot of people too.
For every person stupid enough to seek support for a product they don't own, there are another 5 or 6 who aren't that dumb (and will forever remember your company as the one who makes buggy software)
I can understand this if your anti-piracy measures are affecting legitimate users, but if the users complaining were pirates, do you really want them as customers in the first place? They weren't paying for the software, so why do you care if they're happy?
That said, am I the only one who just doesn't care? This company is providing bandwidth and fronting music industry negotiations in order to deliver a useful and valuable service to me for free. As per the implicit (and explicit) contract with almost every modern free service, it's a willing exchange of information, and I'm perfectly willing to trade my phone ID and location for this service (for now).
It would be nice, though, if there was an Android requirement that each application disclosed exactly what data it was collecting, and for what purpose, in order to be included in the Marketplace.
Personally, I don't think its the end of the world. its a free app and you should expect to be giving away at least some of your information in exchange. However, they should be up front about what they're taking, which if I've read the article correctly, they aren't.
And that makes no sense as none of the new 3D movies have been released exclusively in 3D. (Not every theater has all that new fangled technology, but I'm more than willing to admit that I may be wrong.)
I usually self-identify as libertarian and describe my politics as "I believe in tax cuts and gay marriage". Although I will admit that as time passes I'm moving toward the American left on the tax cut side.
While I don't disagree with you, the success of things like WiiFit illustrates that not everyone feels as such. Also, there's no reason that both types of gameplay can't exist.
The biggest problem that Chrome has is that there's no way (that I am aware of) to turn off the auto-updates. personally, it doesn't bother me that much, but I can understand if it does bother someone else. There should at least be the option to ask (which again there may be, but I couldn't find it).
I believe that Sprint can roam onto Verizon 3g if there's no Sprint signal. Works the other way around too, but there's more places with a Verizon but no Sprint signal (as opposed to Sprint but no Verizon).
I don't know why you haven't heard of it, because you should have. Yes, its a Diablo clone, but its a very good Diablo clone. There's no link because this is/. and the logo is a ripoff probably because most of the developers worked for Blizzard once upon a time.
He shouldn't be allowed to keep it because an unrelated administration 40 years ago intentionally erased records and you don't want him to do the same? Or he should be allowed to keep it because an unrelated administration 40 years ago intentionally erased records and therefore what the public doesn't know won't hurt them?
Your phone doesn't passively respond to the cell network. There is always some communication going between the phone and closest tower. If your signal is weak, your phone will use more power looking for one than if the signal is strong.

Maybe, if it was this time next year, I'd say yes. There's a lot of time between now and the election though.
The agreement can vary depending on features. Still looking at a minimum of $70ish dollars a month though.
Probably not, but you also assume that the editors care.

Yeah, I believe Valve said that story wise, Half-Life would be in the same place after Episode 3 as it would be if they had just made a Half-Life 3.

Not what the rumor mill is saying: http://www.bgr.com/2011/03/01/ipad-3-is-the-tablet-worth-getting-excited-about-not-the-ipad-2-apple-staffer-claims/ Neither would surprise me, as they released the iphone 4 on verizon only to presumably release the iphone 5 in a couple more months.

This is why I almost went to Samford University in Alabama. If you say it fast enough it sounds like Stanford.

Considering they just announce a new phone to be shipping next month, I wouldn't call HP/Palm dead quite yet.

Much like patents, if you throw enough shit at the wall, some is bound to eventually stick.
This won't last long. RIM bought Documents to go not too long ago. http://www.pcworld.com/businesscenter/article/205025/rim_buys_documents_to_go_but_microsoft_missed_out.html
No, the biggest problem with the Patriot Act is that everyone was so eager to look like they were doing something that nobody bothered to read it.
Really? This USA PATRIOT Act: http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d107:HR03162:%5D Or is there another one we're now talking about?

Just asking for clarification.
Your phone doesn't passively respond to the cell network. There is always some communication going between the phone and closest tower. If your signal is weak, your phone will use more power looking for one than if the signal is strong.
Because sadly, most motorists don't.
