What if its a small company that had no plans to release in an English speaking audience? And it just happened to get succesfful enough to release in America?
What then?
Huh?
I am sure that companys will wait to release a game a year or half a year later in Japan just so that the english speakers can play! That won't hurt profits at ALL.
Exactly. What did you think is going to happen? People make something good, and then another person copies it, to make it good for them, and then they have to go and make something else that the other company doesnt have... its all innovation... It might not be as fast, but thats because the ind:t8:y has matured. It happens.
Exactly. Isn't this what we wanted? Creativity, and taking risks? Well, one company does it, sees that its good, and then copies it. We will have to see what the next innovation will be. Remember, these companies are going to do whatever they can to make money, and if another company has a great idea, you best beleive they will do it asap.
And thats why people will want a regular key. Its worked for hundreds of years on other things, so a car should be no problem.
All they really need to do is start randomizing the locks on cars, and not just use the same pattern...
yea, expensive, but safe.
Another patent that might hurt Microsoft. If this was patented back in 93, and Lucent has just now filed suit, you would think that the courts might throw this case out, maybe.
I wish I had mod points.
That was REALLY off topic.
You go into a rant about the Openness of the goverment in a diffrent way than intended.
Way to go WAY off topic.
Well, you kiddy, your not supposed to be looking at porn in the first place. Itll rot your little mind, and make hair grow on your palms./has been watching porn since I was 10
Oh yes. Making an update for BETA software... My GOD, the Beta isn't perfect yet?! HAHAHA
Isn't thats what supposed ot happen? Find bugs in betas and then fix the bugs before release?
If so, this is a stupid, STUPID story.

Lets be realistic. At MOST there are like, 200 people REALLY boycotting Sony for the rootkit. At MOST.
Its also Taco's site.
What he says goes, goes.
It IS Open source... Someone could just write one for linux. :-D
Actually, I rather enjoyed it. Just because you didn't like it, didn't mean it was a turd.

When the Nintendo Wii is released.
Pretty easily.
Isn't it?

Or you can see that WoW's gameplay is better than Everquests 2's. Just an Idea.
Yea, but nVidia has better linux support, so you would think that most of the /. crowd would LOVE nVidia

I hope not. I hate child porn and all that, but that doesn't mean that big brother should be watching everything.
... Why not?
My, my. Seems like SOMEONE hasn't had his daily dosage of Steve Job worship.
And then no one will want to make music because if its free, they don't get paid.
