Cmon, a sentence fragment AND a spelling error? What on earth is an achive?
Does the second link go to Joystiq, which then refers you to another website? Why didn't somebody just post the second link as the list instead of commentary on the list?
For those lazy people, the Actual List that was referred to.
What's wrong with porting BSD over to the Xbox? As far as I know there's only 1 distro of Linux available for the XBox and Microsoft has tried to repeatedly quash it. So what's wrong with another OS on the Xbox?
I see the points you're trying to bring up, guys, but the majority of these games are based on a pay to play basis. This means that the developers must do one of two things:
1. Make the tasks in the game take a long time to carry out.
2. Constantly update the content, almost once every 2 weeks.
Unfortunately, the first option is the easiest and cheapest. Having developers constantly crank out new and completely different content almost all the time would drain most MMO's budgets.
These 3 factors will exist in any game, leading to people who are just better than you, period, defeating the fun the casual player would normally get.
It could be that they've just been confused, but it's likely that people from Blizzard DID leave to join NCSoft. In fact, it's very likely: it's how ArenaNet formed, and maybe they've just called a few friends over for better jobs.
Or it could just be random people speculating, who knows?
Nintendo just lost another 3rd party developer. Knowing the current 3rd party environment for the Gamecube, and seeing how small it is, we can now see that it's just gotten smaller for the Revolution.
I guess Nintendo will just need even more 1st and 2nd party games to compensate, although I don't think Rogue Squadron is dead. A PS3 exclusive, but not dead.

The difference is that while today's x86 processors run at full clock speed almost all the time, the human brain does no such thing.
You are never using 100% of your brain all the time, the usage depends on how much you need. Thus, your head never overheats.
Do we really need more public access television?
Granted, there is talent out there, but is the way to find them to give everyone a tv show and then filter out the bad ones?
to see if they gave the actual passwords. It's not much use if you ask, and they give, but then end up putting that they died in 1975 and was born in 1976.
But then again, maybe they thought they were entering an actual contest. Since this was done in the real world, there'd be a much higher chance of them entering actual information. Entering an online contest is different from answering questions for movie tickets.
Just what we need, a way for robots to evolve and procreate.
Sooner or later they're going to defeat us all in war and hook us up to a giant lego generator for power.

'Oy'....we're outsourcing again...
How are they outsourcing if they are actually BUILDING additional facilities in the US?

This has happened with almost all technology, from Email to Websites to Forums to anything.
It seems logical to me. I mean, if you're picking up the game, you might as well pick up anybody else that you can that worked on the game.

Oo! Me!
I'm not sure about this, but maybe you should use Camino, the Gecko Mozilla Foundation Browser for Mac OS X instead...
This will make the world's most AWESOME fireworks display on July 4th.
You must be new here.
25%? Isn't that a lot over the wider picture of things?

How many of these people are using Firefox? How many go there to convert?
I'd like a copy of this software. It'd save me the time of writing all of those essays.

This seems like a perfect time for a soviet union joke... (please don't kill me or mod me down)
That this has much of a scientific purpose. I mean, wouldn't it be easier to just drill a core sample from the comet?
But it sure will look hella cool on the Fourth of July. Maybe it was just an excuse to create the world's best fireworks display.
...why prediction has such a poor history... Isn't his entire article basically a prediction?
