And for me, it's far better than an iPhone would ever be. Why, because it syncs to my Google Apps for your domain account, so I can access emails on my phone in a very efficient manner, because I have an app which throws texts back the other way so I can read them on my PC, because it does everything I want from a phone extremely well, and more.
Oh, and a qwerty keyboard helps a lot too.
Guess what, the pirate party isn't just about that. They also support freedom of speech and the lowering of the police state laws coming around.
I think that's actually a worthy cause, personally.
And if that is what people want to vote about, guess what, that's what democracy is. You might not think it's the most important issue, but if others do, they get to make that choice.
You seem to have forgotten that the government is meant to be there to implement what the people want. If everyone in the country wants the speed limits increased, then in theory, they should be able to vote for someone who says they will do that. The equivalent for this is the Pirate Party. The government are not meant to control us, we are meant to control the government.
There have been a number of apps that do this on the Android platform for some time now. Has to be an iPhone app to get coverage of course. The BBC really annoy me with their tech coverage, the only things that ever get covered are microsoft/apple stories, or the whole violent video games thing.
I live pretty near hull, and am always horrified by the fact they can only access the internet via one ISP (who throttle badly, port block, along with this). It is enough (well, along with Hull being a horrible place) to stop me ever even thinking of living there.
The only games I can think of with really good humour are anything in the Paper Mario series, and Portal. I'm sure there must be more, but nothing else springs to mind.
True, but there is a limit to what kind of game you can make if it is an open-world game, and it limits the cinimatic experience. Half Life, for example, would not work as an open-world game. It needs linearality to work.
There are plenty of programmers out there with good ideas that are servely limeted to what they can do due to lack of 'art' - be it 2D, 3D, etc...
Something like that would probably gain a lot of support and use. It may even pave the way for a proper open source game community.
That wasn't the problem I was referring to, rather that by creating destructable scenery, it becomes a lot harder to ristrict players to a set route, and therefore multiple routes have to be planned and created.
When a developer creates distructable scenery and lots of alternate routes, it means that they have to produce a lot more content, that the user won't see on every run-through. This means games get shorter (or development times get longer). Admittedly, one sees higher replay value, but generally that's not considered as valuable.
Personally, I miss the epicly long singleplayer games of old (Half Life 1 anyone?), and would like to have the best of both worlds. Unfortunately, the tendancy is towards very short single player games.
When I have a friend in the room, I'm glad I don't have to send them out to type my password.
Most people can't track my fingers on a keyboard. They can, on the other hand, read.
He can go fuck himself.
I mean, really. Does the fact the internet broke their shitty business model really make it worthless?
What an asshole to even say such I thing. I'd rather be without anything Sony ever made than be without the internet.
I installed SUSE the first time. Mucked around a bit, liked it, but went back to Windows, due to not wanting to spend time setting it up.
It took Ubuntu being released for me to finally up and move. It really was a turning point in being usable the moment you started it.
Ironically, I now run Arch, which took ages to set up.

I can find out if my tyres filled with a non-newtonian fluid and little ladders for moths to climb out of the bathtub with will be successful!
Tell you what, how about a trade, we'll give you Spotify for all of those legal Anime streams you guys get that we don't.
See: Spotify. It's a great service that is just as convinient as piracy for most people.

Why thank you good sir.
Can we have one in England too?
No profit doesn't mean they don't have money. Many people and companies donate money, buy merchandise, and donate servers or the like.

Vote for Cameron and hope that he follows through on his promises. If he does, problem solved.
These laws are meant to be there to protect children. No children were harmed in the making of these images. This is essentially thought-crime.

I live in an area where TalkTalk have an LLU, It may be worth switching to them in the near future.

The foundation of any fact.
