For sensitive material? Of course not. But, I have used Mega a number of times for legit downloads (Android ROMs, Linux, various open-source projects). Let's not forget that MegaUpload was used for non-nefarious purposes, although people who store sensitive data unencrypted on someone else's service are always taking a risk.
What if you're a small shop of, say, 4-5 people, and your livelihood depends on what customers are buying your app and word-of-mouth from those people to get their friends to buy too? Sure, Angry Birds will be fine if there are a couple hiccups, but not necessarily the case for the Little Guy.
Turning off a few "features" that devs haven't hopefully designed around in their apps. It's important to keep the people who are the backbone of your OS's ecosystem in the loop - no devs = no users.
Woo, I'm just stabbing with an inflation calculator, but $245 billion 1998 dollars in 2012 dollars is $342 billion, so they have lost money. If I did that right. And by me, I mean a website I used to calculate the value of that 1998 figure in today dollars (well, 2012 dollars, that's as far as it goes). Anyways, that's a loss.
All I hear is that you want a computer plugged in to your TV with an IR remote. There won't ever, ever, be a little box that just "does it all" - yes, it is too much to ask. New codecs, new standards for network sharing, new TVs, new X Y and Z will prevent that from ever happening. So, your best bet is to get something that can at least be expected to be reasonably future-proof, for a long time, for a cheap price - a computer.
Better: a question for you: what do you guys like to play? Why are you asking us about games to play, when you should know what you like and what she likes - since you're both obviously gamers, right? Right? So, do you both actually play games? If so, find something that's online, that you both enjoy, and play it. There's lots of free games, free-to-try games, and games you might only have to shell out a couple bucks each to get (Humble Bundle, anyone?). But, if one of you isn't a gamer, then this is pointless. I don't know - my wife and I are pretty upfront about our gaming likes and dislikes, so I wouldn't really need to ask anyone else what we should play together. Maybe you two should talk about what kind of games you'd like to play, and then find some.
Oh, more:
Gunbound Any variation of Catan Call of Duty Final Fantasy Online (LOL) Any "old-school" emulator with networking support Team Fortress 2 Lots of online poker services for free (Triple Jack is fun)
There are probably a few more - I mean, we are talking about games to play online, right? Yeah, probably one or two that I missed.
You should really make this using some kind of variable - Obama is not the first, nor the last, to want to wield this power. The Eye knows no mortal coil, but lusts for an eternity of reading your GMail and knowing what you Like.
Because the TouchPad is actually OK - WebOS only suffered from a lack of developer interest (a big one) and a less than done WM (Luna, which had made great strides under LunaCE). And, given that HP didn't lock it down, it's seen a good life. Now, the RT, well it really doesn't have much going for it aftermarket.
You can say that just about anything is a "server" - drawing a line at what is "served" is a bit difficult - is it port 80? Then just move to a different port. Is it traffic volume? The summary mentions BitTorrent, and along with that there are plenty of other things that can be considered "server" traffic. This is similar to when I was in high school, and the internet use policy stated that we were explicitly prohibited from "downloading," even though every web page that used cookies essentially created a "download," and in fact just viewing pages created "downloads" when a cached version was stored on the hard disk.
My ISPs have never allowed hosting "servers" on their networks, but so far so good as mine hasn't complained about my super-low-traffic web server, nor my SSH activity to my home when I need it. I'm sure if I asked them or if I had bajillions of monthly visitors, it'd be a different story.

I'll pat any editor on the back that posts a store that doesn't result in numerous "Here's the link to TFA" comments as well as "The headline is completely misleading" comments - I want (some) quality discussion.
- It's ok to edit poor grammar or at least add a [sic] when it's just unbearable to read
- Headlines should actually reflect the content of the story ACCURATELY
- Sensationalizing is for the source, it has no place here
- It's generally expected of us here in the comments to RTFA before going off blasting things out of our arses - we'd appreciate the same from you
- Post some crappy book reviews every now and then - why not?
- Make updates when it makes sense or when comments accurately point out misleading or important details - I notice this happening on some things (kernel-related stories) but not so much on "news" news.

It's great to see people putting down others, I'm sure statements like that won't at all cause people who otherwise probably wouldn't have wanted to be involved in any such thing to change their minds. It's like saying "we have information suggesting an attack is imminent on US interests abroad - keep an eye out for young men who have unsightly beards, sand in their butt cracks, and a strange fascination with goats" and not expecting more people to be violent towards you than before you made the statement.
It's not just security to worry about - although that isn't really a big concern as most CDNs hopefully never fall to exploits themselves...
Working in a "content agency," we've used CDN hosted JS before. Not shabby, but I prefer to keep it on our servers. It doesn't really save you on point B - if you're hosting the page, host the damn JS. The caching is nice, but your JS should be small anyway...hopefully. We ran into an issue with jQuery Mobile over CDN - we were pointing to the latest stable, but surely enough something changed one day and it was enough to throw the page into a sputtering mess...not worth it.
Maybe I'm missing something, but why don't companies like Google et al just lease the parts of the spectrum they want then? Why is this bad news for them - b/c they have to shell out $ or b/c they won't be able to participate? If it's the latter, then that's a bummer, but the former? Drop some cash, damn.
I guess as I heard yesterday, the President and Holder expressed concern about this rider on the bill and that the legislation would go back to congress if the defunding of the NSA programs involved were approved. Just what I recall hearing on the radio - it certainly wouldn't be a good idea to veto such broad legislation, but the WH is pretty set on not budging on the NSA stuff.
It would have been a great symbolic win, but the President would have vetoed it no question, and I doubt we could ever get a super majority, even if we could get it passed in the first place.
Be careful on that feminist bit...my fiancé is a feminist and enjoys pr0n as much as the next girl.
Some more extreme views of feminism have forgotten the simple test of "Are you a feminist: Do you have a vagina? If you answered 'yes,' you are a feminist." The point being, the extremists (they're in every group!) have turned feminism into a four-letter word for a lot of people because they believe in telling you what you, as a feminist, should be. This is exactly what early feminism fought to get away from - the idea that anyone else but you should decide what you want to do with your life. Said fiancé has been reading a lot of stuff on "new feminism" and it enrages both of us when so-called "feminists" say that she can't be a housewife and a feminist at the same time, and she genuinely wants to be a housewife. Feminism was about equality, but to most people these days it means that all women should do what men traditionally do and they should never do what women "traditionally" used to do, even if they want to.
Also, feminism in general has only promoted sexuality - true feminism means that your body is yours and you can present it any way that you want.
Perhaps she was doing an experiment to see how much luck had played a role in propelling her to worldwide success, and whether she could recreate anything close to that success when starting from scratch.
Perhaps she wanted to release a novel under a different name so that it could be more serious and not be tied to her image of Harry Potter. Perhaps she was just dicking around. Perhaps you could have presented this differently, so you didn't frame the whole thing as if your premise were true so that you could jack it all about your sample-voting blah blah blah geezus get on the front page using a story about an author who probably didn't do what she did for the reasons you suggest.
Yes, you are. The TSA says they're targeting valet parked cars specifically because of proximity to the front of the airport. If there's going to be a terrorist in the airport, search the valet cars. If they parked in the garage, you don't have to worry about it until they get to the terminal.

Yeah, I saw this tool was already built in to Chrome, so I guess I've had the hack for a while - even before this guy released it!
Does anyone actually trust his stuff?

I'm almost 100% positive that Microsoft isn't testing every 3rd party application to make sure they all still work as expected.
You have no idea how hard I was laughing when I wrote that - I'm on administrative leave, and our office doesn't have that, so I got fired.

MS Recycle Bin 95 was Apple Lisa Wastebasket 82.
Well, at least Microsoft was good enough to recycle it, rather than simply bury it in a landfill.
The abundance of trash in Windows was so overwhelming that they had to push it off to landfills anyway.
