That's the cost of being an early adopter. You should be proud of that, man! How many of *them* never heard of Apple Newton - even though it had just a little too slow processor to handle it's software power? Raise your hand, if you know what it feels to have Gravis Ultrasound just to have it killed with Windows 95, or texting and talking with Matrix Neo's Nokia (old 7110) phone - just to realise that even tho the call answering effect is awesome, the phone wears and starts answering - and rejecting - your phones while in your pocket.
Man, I for one love to be ahead of the curve. And even if it means you got to pay the price for some time... still, it's worth it.
It is our genes that push our kind to the Space, and it is our genes that are calling home. Wonderful thing that somewhere in our DNA strands lies our extraterrestial legacy.
It could be the nature that put us here. It must be our civilizational effort to get outta here... before we shred this planet to pieces.
Can you imagine the accuracy of a Beowulf cluster of that?
And when you buy that long-waited-for Empire: Total War, you get Steam, and spend HOURS (well, it's a day after the launch) getting said game patched.
Really ruins your experience... especially if you could just download pirated version and stop caring about multiplayer, activation, steam preventing you from even seeing an intro for hours, that you cound spend sleeping, because you go to work like the next guy.
Well, if that's what's it's going to be, I say I'll stick to them torrents. They're so damn easier. Sega, Valve, Ubisoft - they're all going too greedy. And I wish it's still times when you got those five floppies of Space Quest or Larry, or Master of Orion, waited for it to copy to your smallish, pre-internet-era HDD, and then just plainly enjoyed them.
Boy, I wish I could just play the game I just brought home from the store.
My Vista64, my Windows Mobile, my Android cell phone, even by simple 3G handset Motorola Z8 browser (supposedly an opera clone) do not support Flash.
For Vista, there's a workaround, you can always fall back to 32-bit IE, but for those mobile devices I say Flash is a no-no.
Hell, even iPhone's Safari doesn't play flash.
I'd say they are ourtight liars. And must I also point out, I started disliking the format for quite some time.
Running Vista64 since day one, and Windows 7 for a while, I must say internally both systems look similiar. Some article TL to quote stated that Seven is to Vista like 98SE was to 98. It does not take a rocket scientist to guess MSFT would never release such a dud like XP64 again - it's been overdone (can you say that?) by now.
Yes, it happens all the time: the Swedish Academy can change their vote any time, if it feels pressed by the media.
Well that's not true, at least for Poland.
I'm a TV journalist and had been working for a while on social-related issues; every time I needed a police shoots to broadcast, I just went with my trusty cameraman to the streets and took what we had to take. There never was a problem of being punished for later publications of officers on duty.
But you are certainly right I was mistaken saying that's true for all EU. Well, for Poland it is, I thought since we're less democratic than UK, that it's a freedom you take for granted.
Imagine my surprise now.
Here in good, ol' Europe no cop will ever ask you to stop shooting photos - if he/she's on duty of course. Best they can do is to turn around. You have the right to video them, photo them when they're doing the job you are paying for.
