Origin do refund games _if you don't like them_. Steam won't refund utterlly broken trash games, except "War Z" which was a disaster. It happened with X:Rebirth very recently: people edit XML savegame to progress through the story. Some others CTD on startup. Steam support won't refund, they say you used the software for 2 hours so they can't and won't, it's alpha quality at best sold 50 USD. Origin would refund, Amazon would refund, Steam tells you to GTFO. I was a rabid Steam fan once, no longer.

"Snowden was a bankster ! He funnelled billions and billions to offshore accounts with his NSA know-how, he's responsible for the housing bubble and crash !"

You never know when a world leader goes Al Qaeda suicide bomber all of a sudden, unless you listen it her calls. I'm sure Angela Merkel wears a Burqa secretly when alone at home.

Well... let's see. Input:

Output:
- CO2 (there's an engine in that that burns CO from dead plant)
- Charcoal = Carbon.

So we input CO2 and it outputs CO2 and coal. Now unless you don't believe in conservation of mass, or that lumps of charcoal can floats in the atmosphere then it means there's less CO2 in the atmosphere as a result of treating the dead plants with this machine.

Just wait for next week story: "The NSA can't fucking bring up their servers, whole datacenter crashes in a chaotic storm of network packets"

IT and service jobs --> Subsidised consumer (welfare)

I'm sure the system would be happy to pay everybody monopoly money just to make it work forever. Why, you ask ? Because money in itself has no value. Stop it flowing and it becomes paper and soon enough people use a new currency in their exchanges ; leaving you ruined.

1001 units ; I'll get one too.

I don't think we'll sink energy into oil after it's become more expensive than solar power.

Hi. How's the weather in Redmond?

In a strong move in favor of consumer protection today Apple stopped counterfeit lighting cables from connection to Apple devices. "This should remove all the risks Apple user face when using these cables, like electrical damage, snooping and viruses. ...err strike that last one, it's not supposed to be possible on iPhone."

One oops with a conventional bomb is hardly more forgiving.

No, don't worry they'll use Huawei routers... oh wait...

The boy should be happy they didn't notice his weapon of mass destruction. A phone battery can explode and he very well could have used it to kill several classmates.

I'm sure the Stasi would have said exactly the same.

Of course it's not a gun. Guns have been done. Now they need *the hands to fire them* !! (or fire them again after a liberator blew up some guy's hand)
