Glass has an LED that comes on when you are recording. Furthermore recordings are limited to short lengths, so to record continuously you would need to keep touching or talking to it.

Just because you don't use it doesn't mean that nobody does. I like G+, there is a lot of good technical content on there. Unlike Facebook you don't get bombarded with pointless crap and inane updates, just a stream of interesting technical posts from people who know what they are talking about.

There are plenty of them too, because it's a nice haven away from from the river or diarrhoea that is Facebook and the foul rage-fest that is YouTube and almost every other site these days.

Are they still doing different versions? If I have Windows 7 Home or whatever it is called now will I get Windows 10 Home? The one feature in Pro I miss is the ability to do backups to a network drive.

That's actually how it is already. Technically if your motherboard dies you need to buy a new Windows licence, although of course nobody does.

Years ago when I worked in that industry we were told that second hand PCs needed a new Windows license by Microsoft. Yeah, a £65 Windows sticker for a £20 second hand PC, okay. To be fair we were scraping stickers off dead laptops and pasting them on to second hand desktops, but that's a separate issue.

It isn't gaming culture as a whole, which is 50% female these days. It's just a minority of people who call themselves gamers. If you actually listen to Anita Sarkeesian she does point this out, and clearly states that many of the issues she raises are due to laziness and lack of awareness rather than malice.

That's the really stupid thing about this whole debate. The gamers feel they are being attacked. They are not. The title of the videos is "Tropes vs. Women", not "Gamers vs. Women". They are about tropes, lazy shortcuts and obvious stereotypes that people use without really thinking about the consequences. She shows how over the years they have built up to the point where a developer wanting to make a game "gritty" will throw in some prostitutes and sexy corpses without really thinking about it, because that's what gritty is now. Of course it doesn't have to be - look at games like The Last of Us.

If you look at the responses on YouTube very few of them actually critique her arguments. One of the closest is Thunderf00t's, which typically start out with a few memes and image macros about what a lying bitch and feminazi she is before ranting for 10-15 minutes about some minor point that is largely unimportant. It's a classic mix of ad-hominem and straw man attacks, in his trademark breathless, incredulous tone. The others are considerably worse.

When people say she was harassed, they mean the death and rape threats, the fake social media accounts, the lies like the claim she spent Kickstarter money on shoes, the fake porn of her, that sort of thing.

It's true, I feel really bad about being a privileged white guy. Life would be so much easier if I was a black woman, ideally with some kind of disability... Or better still a black guy who transitioned. The lack of oppression in my life is really holding me back.

Actually, as it happens I am half Asian and have had a bit of racism over the years, so I guess you were wrong about all that.

If she traded sex for that, she got ripped off. Also note that the "article", if we are calling it that, was written before their relationship began. Once it did, Grayson never wrote anything about her.

If this is the huge scandal that revealed corruption at the core of games journalism... Well, you can see why people think it's just a pathetic attempt to justify the original lie.

I was always disappointed with 4chan. It's the western version of the Japanese 2ch forum. 2ch is anarchic and there is massive trolling, but there is also a lot of really good discussion, information and socialising. You can read about it on Wikipedia.

4chan never reached that level of greatness. It's had a few moments, but never anything like 2ch.

Making it so isn't the point. The point is to expose deniers. Politicians like to keep quiet if they think their denial will harm their election prospects.

Are insurers not regulated in your country?

In the EU they are, so for example they have to have an address you can write to and a phone number you can call. Their decisions can be appealed to an independent body, who can look at if terms were fair and generally ignores stupid clauses. Ultimately they can overrule decisions too.

I trust them over the insurance companies, who I know to be complete scum.

Hastings Direct in the UK is one of the worst. If you do a quote with an accident reported and then another without, just to see how much difference it makes, they will probably cancel your insurance. It looks like you considered lying. Once your insurance is cancelled once it's sky high premiums for life. Of course, no-one would ever do that just to see how much money they need to claim from the at-fault party to cover insurance premium increases.

The insurance industry loves to data mine. The comparison sites love to help them. Your scenario is impossible anyway because in the EU it would violate data protection laws. At worst, Google won't be any worse than we already have, and on the plus side I have at least read their privacy policy so I don't need to wade through hundreds of pages from the other sites just to get a reasonable quote.

Neither of your links are to a review of Quinn's game. The first one claims there was some kind of link, to the extend that her game was mentioned in a list of 50 that the guy wrote. Not a review or article about her game by any stretch of the imagination.

He stopped even mentioning her after they got together. He did the ethical thing and stopped covering her work. Are you saying that even being friends with a game developer is problematic? Because I have news for you bro, most journalists have some kind of friendly relationship with the people they report on because otherwise it's kinda hard to report on them.

GG is right wing, as in conservative. They like the status quo and don't want women to enter the video games space.

Presumably it's because the goal is to prevent people "crashing" the victim's life with doxxing and swatting and general harassment.
