>> It's only a matter of time before we can see just how far this determination can possibly go. Hopefully not far. I have no sympathy whatsoever for this groups that think they can speak for me when conducting their terrorist activities. >> While LulzSec itself doesn't seem to have...

>> Are you in? Not sure you, I'm afraid. Probably for $1. Missing three of the games in that bundle but not really much interested on them. Hence why I didn't buy them in the first place :) So if I go for it, it will be for $1.

Maybe you mistook Apple's intentions or I did MacMan. But Amazon didn't stop anyone from providing links to other stores. This is what Apple is doing. So what we have here is that you develop some iPad application and cannot have any link on that App to online stores other than Apple's store...

Yup. Definitely a little troll child. Goodbye. Can't say it was nice to know you. It wasn't.

There's some truth to this indeed. And you've used this argument a few times. But let's face it, it took Microsoft almost 3 decades to finally present users with an anti-virus and 25 years to give them a firewall worth being called by that name. And more or less the same time to gives users...

I... that is... hmm... well, th... I really wanted to say something about that. But cultural impediments inculcated to a great extent by a nonindulgent upbringing are currently debarring my efforts at doing so in a manner that I would find most appropriate... if vulgar.

Wow! Talk about being caught by your own big mouth. You say you have several Unix certifications from Pace University (and btw, of those you mentioned only one is actually Unix) and you don't even know that Unix is not Linux and Linux is not Unix? All those certifications and they didn't...

Deindividuation is certainly one of the consequences of internet anonymity. I've actually been writing for several months an article about this problem that I mean to put on my blog. I don't know if I will ever finish it. I call the whole problem the Philodox Effect. I identify it as being the...

I don't understand why this thread was revived 10 months later. Yes, it's before my time, but I did read it and didn't think anything in it deserved an opinion this far into it. For anyone who actually cares to read what Rob writes, they'll learn that his move to full Linux was a somewhat...

Note that Guru3D hasn't been supporting Driver Sweeper since late last year. It seems the gentleman behind the software decided it was a good idea to install adware with the setup. The gentleman behind the program has a different story to tell though. But who knows.... It was "discontinued"...

Possibly, since some factories are located around there, from felonious managers. The horror stories around Foxconn practices have become so common place, it wouldn't come as a surprise to me some of its managers also conducted side businesses on Apple's expense.

I'm terribly sorry I didn't reply to this before, Kayden. Inexcusable since you did a fantastic job and your work alone should probably have deserved centerpiece as full TG article. To my defense, I sort of bookmarked your post on the back of my head for later reading. I understood its...

Yeah. It seems I need a crash course on modern piracy practices. :) Been loosing track ever since it became more than just copying CDs.

hmm... didn't actually thought they were selling fake apple computers, ipads or iphones. How can one possibly fake these? Just thought they were unlicensed by apple.

Reminds me of Xerox stores... (well, back when there were actually Xerox stores, lol). I was reminded of them, because they involve a story I know well. The very first pirate store over here was also the first one to become an official Xerox store a couple years later See where I'm getting...

Wow, Kougar. That Thermaltake dock is all I want and need! Thank you so much for that tip. I'm looking at this as my disk backup solution. Would you agree this could be a good use for it? I owned a NAS not so long ago (about three years ago). Had to sell it and can't afford one anymore. But...

Over here legislation prohibits this. Game content is rated according to the PEGI system and is legally enforced, prohibiting the selling or distribution of unsuitable content according to the age of the minor. I have no doubt some shops may circumvent this, but they do it at their own risk...

Yeah. I'm a bit critic of the 64bit emergence, I concede. I just don't see where exactly are the >3.6 GB requirements for most consumers. And this includes gaming machines. For those that do have that requirement... sure. But much of the rest have been caught up in the more-is-better fallacy...

Indeed. If I was to name all the games that I find incredibly fun, where general opinion is they sucked, I'd probably need more than a reply box. Conversely, if I were to name all the games I found to be an incredible bore and that have a large fan base, I'd probably need a day off...

Personally, I think the 64bit take-over is long due. But this isn't a new process. 32bit adoption was a slow process too (more than 10 years to become a de facto standard in both business and consumer markets) -- and if you consider 32bit was actually much more needed at the time than 64bit is...
