How many, really?

Well, according to the Firefox addon page, NoScript has 367,131 weekly downloads.

This is very misleading. The poster two levels up mentioned an Augen device, and the link here is for a series of Archos devices. Entirely difference devices and different price points.

FWIW, I think the Augen is Android 2.1 (un-upgradeable), although I could be mistaken.

Exactly. This article selectively looks at the history of prices, choosing the data that supports their thesis and ignoring that which doesn't. It's concerned mainly with cartridge based games that grew to insanely high prices, but neglects the major drop in prices when companies moved to optical disc based systems. At the Playstation launch, many titles debuted at $39.

The current pricing scheme is quite a hike. And more so when you figure that you often don't even get the full game at that price. You need to buy DLC to unlock content on the disc that you already paid for. The price can easily bump up to $69.99.

Actually, it *was* because there were a lot of people that thought they were going to lose access to ammo. There were numerous new reports at the time featuring interviews with shop owners and customers. It was quite eye opening at the time - I didn't realize that people were that nuts.

AvP on the Jag was one of the best gaming experiences I ever had. It was a fantastic game and well worth all of the delays.

and profits are being squeezed even lower by ebooks

Bull. Ebooks now usually cost the same as their physical counterparts, yet do incur the costs of physical production (which has traditionally been cited as the main reason for high prices). So if production costs are down and sales are the same, profits would be up.

Correction: won't. Hyperbole isn't an effective way of arguing your point.

Furthermore Toyota engineers admitted it. They admitted there was a bug that made the computer ignore inputs from the brakes or gear shift.

When did this happen? I don't recall this ever happening.

He failed *A* test, and with the substance he tested positive for he should've failed *many* tests. There's just no way for the substance levels to spike that high on one day & not show up on any other days. Anyone in their right mind should see that this was an aberration in the testing procedures, and most likely erroneous.

I am intrigued by the possibilities that your magic rock presents to us, and wish to subscribe to your newsletter. Also, does your rock have the endorsement of Jenny McCarthy or Oprah Winfrey? If so, I'm sold.

I think the context was that they are more powerful than other weapons in the current game, not more powerful than the ME1 sniper rifles.

But it's not such a big deal that it justifies allowing monitoring of traffic and possible censorship.

The writer needs to check the facts. While 'Enter the Matrix' was a critical failure, it sold extremely well. From Wikipedia: "It sold one million copies in its first eighteen days of release, 2.5 million over the first six weeks, and eventually 5 million copies."

5 million copies sold does not sound like a financial failure.

Ignoring just blocks a person's comments. A /who will always show if a person is online. Unfortunately there is no way to be 'invisible' as is often an option in other MMO's.

It reads like a Babelfish translation.
