The documents Take Two hands over will have pictures of supreme court judges fornicating on every page, drawn in invisible ink on top of the boring Memos.
How you you (not your eomployers) feel about consumers downloading episodes of Futurama and watching them on their personal computers or portable media player of choice?
In particular, I mean those that pay for cable TV, but don't enjoy being bombarded with ads interupting the shows every 5 minutes, and find major network schedules highly restrictive.
Before any product like this will ever be successful, we need to get our distributed wireless net working. The specific protocol and specs chosen aren't all that important, but there needs to be something widely availble. The general population needs to grasp the convenience before people will bite on these. They don't want to work to get it working.
If I have to wait until I find a useful wireless hotspot, why wouldn't I just lug around a small laptop instead? I'll be waiting until I sit down at the nearest Starbucks or McDonalds to use it at this point.
You can't sell many trains until after you've laid a few miles of track.
7th Guest and 11th Hour.
I played those for hours on end and kept getting drawn back in by the story and fear and wanting to know what was next.
I grew up a horror-loving kid - watching all the B flicks with my friend in our dark basements. IT, The People Under the Stairs, Wax Museum, House, all the Nightmare's that plagued Elm Street... they all drew me in. I think a big part of the pleasure is seeing how tough you are. You want to keep watching until the next scary part and see if you'll still jump or wince.
A game that can draw you in like that is even better. You want to keep playing to test your limits, see if you can handle it. Then you can go brag to your friends about beating "the scariest game ever," and show it to the girls and have them curling up against you. Maybe that's more with movies. But you know what I mean.
I love being scared. I can't get enough of it. I think it's true that people are a little too sensitive and understimulated in general, so maybe a good scream is what some people need.
I agree with you, except the phrase "in case it ever gets broken."
It's more a matter of "for when it eventually gets broken."
Encryption is temporary.
That's exactly what he meant, I believe.
The equipment is cheap enough for "anyone to own and operate" but the problem is in the licensing, which is saturated by big media.
You'd have to make sure you run it on really old hardware. Anything too new has a risk of processing the gospel too fast and might start to realize the endless loops meant to lock it up.
New hardware: "Woah there, these self-justified loops don't make sense. Let's re-evaluate the situation..."
Old hardware: "Endless cycles? OKAY! Read this over and over and over and over..."
Just curious, but what features do you find are lacking?
Whenever I happen to be using any other email service, I find myself wishing I was back home in my gmail, because it has everything I want.
I hardly even notice the ads.
Have you seen hotmail recently? When I see people using that, I want to cut out my eyes with rusty nails.

I can't pay attention for 8 seconds let alone 8 months.
Immediate gratification or bust.
On a side note: I thought I'd editted that parent for spelling, but it seems I ignored the first 6 words.

This is why God invented reflective sunglasses.

Studying ebay counts as physics in South Korea?
What's the probability of overpriced shipping?
