That's funny considering I've never played either of those games. I primarily play FPS and RTS games, two genre that don't translate very well to the console side...
The only reason I wind up watching commercials is because I forgot I'm watching something on the DVR and I am allowed to fast forward through it! I must be getting old..
How is this any different then making a phone call? My voice still has to go through the Phone Companies equipment. They still need a warrant to tap my phones (well, maybe not thanks to the Patriot Act).
If this ruling stands, it's going to open up a whole new can of worms. Email should be considered PRIVATE if there is only one recipient, just the same as if I make a call to a single individual.
As for the "increment the version number each time there's a code change" -- that would make a change that fixes the typo "teh" to "the" equally "important" with respect to the version number as a change that fixes a problem that crashes the entire program.
And so it should be. The version number to me gives me vital information. If a customer calls and complains that there is a spelling error, and I fix it, I have to change the version number so my auto-update knows to download it and install the new version. It also tells me whether or not the customer is on the latest and greatest or they're stuck on an older version. Maybe a file didn't get overwritten on the last install for some reason, who knows...
The version numbers I use are A.B.C.D where A is the Major, B is Minor, C is Bug Fix Only, and D is the release number of the software. This way the auto-updater just has to see if D is higher then the one currently installed.

Slashdot Mirror
It's a document format.
I do the project first, then give them the estimate of how long it will take. For some reason, projects still take longer then estimated...
I assume it would be promoted to slashdot editor...
Get off my lawn!!

PC gamers love to obsess over whether PC gaming is dying? No, Console Players obsess over that. PC Gamers just keep playing :)
Theres an App for that?
Well, if it's that obvious, then your post should be rated -1 Redundant...
Instead we have the worst of both worlds.
Unless you're the Insurance company.

Nintendo has been the only one who HAS innovated. Sony sure hasn't!
I can read one book a day...
That pops up for the operator to respond to....
Are you sure you want to kill this patient?
Yes No Retry
And here I was trying to combine 90210 with 8675309...
Slashdot is hardly the right venue to get a good answer to this question (how the hell did it end up in the Hardware category?)
Ok, so if Slashdot isn't the right venue to get an answer, should he ignore your answer?
Would they host, and allow development on ReactOS? (for those who don't know, it's an open source Windows clone)
Sure, if it runs on Windows.
Yeah, now multiply that by the 10,000 domains that some SPAMMER registers, then decides to cancel when they don't pan out...
or frowning bombs
Amiga line has the Guru Meditation Error
Atari ST line has Bombs (Not frowning). The number of Bombs told you the type of Exception that had occurred.
Mac line has the "Sad Mac" which basically told you, you were screwed, but just not how.
Or do you mean the "Guru Meditation Error"?

It's called the Constitution. Maybe you should read it some time.
Start with the 4th Amendment
"The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized."
