The reason the Kinect is bundled is because if it's not bundled game developers can't assume it's there. With the One, you can now assume there is always a Kinect.
Shit, it just recognizing me when I sit down is worth an extra $25, Zoo Tycoon is worth another $25 of value to me. Seems they're only about $50 in the hole from the cost, and it's only been out a few months.
This "list" seems to be convinced that you could get a contract government job in (France? Britain? Germany? Some other much-adored European country) and steal state secrets, release them, and not be tracked down and arrested.
I for one think someone should test this theory. Do it, see what happens.
Really this entire article is just flamebait for anti-American Europeans, and _especially_ for self-loathing Americans with pathological inferiority complexes.
Racism and bigotry do exist, and will always exist - it's a core part of how the human brain works. It will exist in varying levels in different people, but the extreme end is getting rarer and rarer in the US.
For the most part calling people racists or bigots is just an ego gratification strategy employed by the types who feel ashamed to be US citizens and wish they were "more civilized" Europeans.. you know, the kind of Europeans who invented racism and mass murder on a genocidal scale.
Wow, you mean you can prove that data has not been tampered with or accidentally changed?! Amazing. I can't believe they invented that!
Well, I'm off to use, I don't know, _anything_ on the Internet that uses hashing and digital signing which apparently didn't exist before fucking Bitcoin.
Oh fucking please. Try that shit in Mexico or 90% of the nations of the world. Suing them for not letting you into the country for _any_ reason they want? Good luck with that.
And why are _phones_ singled out? Can I not talk to someone sitting next to me now because it might annoy the precious fucking snowflake behind me? Why does it matter if I talk into a phone or to a person next to me?
People are fucking retarded. If it's really that bad then the airlines can ban them themselves.
Fucking bullshit nanny stake gibberish. What about just people talking to each other? That annoys me, two assholes sitting in front of me talking about the Kardashians or some other boring shit. Let's pass a law!
This isn't common sense, this is rabble rousing nonsense.
Loud talkers annoy me - should congress ban loud talkers? Should they pass a law about phones in theaters? Should they pass a law about horribly annoying and stupid reality shows?
This is grandstanding junk and it's even more shameful a (R) is involved in it. If enough people are annoyed by it then the airlines can ban it themselves.
Everyone thinks they are a precious fucking snowflake with a right not to be annoyed by someone else.
This is digital content. There's nothing for you to "sell" and nothing requiring Valve to allow anyone but you to use it.
Seems this case and the headline is a bit misleading. The title should be "German court refuses to force Valve to implement third party sale capabilities for their digital content."
I imagine you can still sell any physical item you may possess including but not limited to DVDs with games on them.
Lolwut? You do understand that jquery is just a set of helper libraries written in...Javascript...right? It's not a 'core' language because it's not a language _or_ an 'extension' - it's a library of code.
There's no issue of browsers 'supporting' it, it's more an issue of it supporting any given browser and its eccentricities, which _you_ as a Javascript developer would need to do anyway.
Would you be happier if these non-"script kiddie" (lol) developers just pasted the jQuery code in their own files, does that make it better?
It's easy to say something like that, any tool can do so. Do you have concrete examples of why/how IIS is a pile of steaming crap? And not stuff people like to repeat but which isn't true (Uhh, you have to restart it all the time!).
LDAP services? Lolwut? Active Directory is incredibly nice. Ridiculously stable and very powerful. What concrete issues do you have with it? Same with Exchange in terms of corporate mail/voice/Lync/etc.. services.
I work in a large corporation and I don't recall ever having issues with AD unless someone on the support team does something silly, which has happened like 5 times in 17 years.

Agreed. Keep violent felons in prison forever, it becomes a non-issue.

Useless - just flash a new ROM over it.

Selection bias much?
So was the idea of the stars telling us our future.
So was the idea of transmutation via magic spells and elixirs.
So was the idea of curing cancer by eating baking soda.
Sorry, dude, but some ideas are fucking retarded in hindsight, the present, and in the future.
Oh fucking please. Try that shit in Mexico or 90% of the nations of the world. Suing them for not letting you into the country for _any_ reason they want? Good luck with that.
It might be, and I think your general approach might be sound if the very concept of bitcoin wasn't FUCKING RETARDED .
I was looking into similar options - came across BTSync, OwnCloud, and AeroFS as options but haven't really played with any of them yet.
Lol. No. A phone is not a server or desktop and using rsync+ssh under Android natively would be silly when there are apps that do it right.
You have it bass ackwards. Nobody is doubting the airlines' right to ban the phones, he is questioning Congress' right.
And why are _phones_ singled out? Can I not talk to someone sitting next to me now because it might annoy the precious fucking snowflake behind me? Why does it matter if I talk into a phone or to a person next to me?

AD would handle this fine as well.
Oh please. Maybe you should suck less if you use it EVERY SINGLE DAY and don't know how to do it.
1. Go to IIS Manager->Server Certificates.
2. Grunt your mouse over to "Create Certificate Request", drool on mouse button until your slobber weighs the button down.
3. Answer a few questions, generate request, send to provider.
4. Get certificate from provider, click "Complete Certificate Request".
That's, let me count.. 1..1..1.. yep 1 administrative interface.
Microsoft thug, lol. Someone sure seems stuck in a time-warp ca. 1995... Ice Ice Baby, right?
Lol. Do you even AD, Bro? Neither of those is AD related.
It's easy to say something like that, any tool can do so. Do you have concrete examples of why/how IIS is a pile of steaming crap? And not stuff people like to repeat but which isn't true (Uhh, you have to restart it all the time!).

Something called "active directory", huh? You sure do seem tuned in with technology, I predict a long and fruitful career, lolzers.
Lol, yes. You're _so_ cutting edge.
You remind me of the "Guy with no TV who is always telling you he has no TV" assholes. "Windows, that's still around?!!".
