What about those who live in Thailand or somewhere else where Christmas isn't celebrated and new years will be in February?

Btw, I'm already in the year 2553.

And it's still opt-in. I'm currently in Thailand and they block all porn, you opt-in or not. Of course, it's only the most known sites blocked while smaller less-known ones work.

They say they're trying to bring in more features, but well, currently it's quite pointless app.

Who do you think have more to lose if nukes start going around? I'm quite certain it's not North Korea.

What's wrong with chess? I find that it increases your intelligence and strategical thinking even more than some computer games. It has very basic ruleset but tons of strategies you can use while all the same time seeing everything your opponent does and he does too. It needs some skillful thinking.

So basically, user donation model doesn't really work and either you need ad revenue (losing your privacy to advertisers like with Google) or you pay for your product (professional you-get-what-you-pay-for like with Microsoft)?

Yeah, I think it's quite unbelievable that companies are wasting their money on things they require in their business. There must be like a million better uses for it than actually making sure their business works and grows.

It might be surprising, but the rest of the world doesn't always work the same way as US. We also value privacy and don't release public records on just arrests and people could be arrested, questioned and released to wait for outcome if there is no threat to anyone or reason to believe he might try to flee the country, for example.

Attacking financial services, banks and government websites is probably the best idea in the world.

Note that the report focus on socially engineered malware which is actually a huge problem currently. This includes all those malicious links on twitter, facebook, instant messaging and so on. They are coming directly from your friends, so most people assume they are safe. If Internet Explorer 9 beta blocks 99% of those and Chrome only 3%, that makes a huge difference.

Just like the days of worms automatically spreading over the internet via remote exploits are quite much gone, the amount of drive-by download exploits is lowering too. However a well-crafted socially engineered attack will always work on people and as a bonus it works across all browsers and even on Mac OSX and Linux. That is, if browser isn't itself trying to prevent those, like Internet Explorer 9 is. With IE's sandboxing and this feature, IE9 is surely starting to look like a really secure browser for people to use. Now, if companies would just start updating their stuff and abandon IE6...

Is Yahoo even relevant with anything anymore? They shut down their own search, they shut down geocities, no one really uses portal sites anymore and they don't make any hardware or provide services. The only thing I can think of is email, which is also is far away from popularity of gmail and hotmail. What do they even do?

Well at least I saw one at the Berlin airport when I was flying via it.

What are you talking about? It's not the single player campaign, it's multiplayer. That's quite painful to set up in an emulator and you only get 4 players. This gives a lot more opportunities.

GoldenEye on N64 really was the first great multiplayer game. I never really liked alien and future stuff like with Doom and Quake and in them you just ran around like a maniac. GoldenEye has current weapons and great levels.

GoldenEye had tactical elements too, a lot of hidden tunnels and ways to get around, and the proximity mines meant you could get up on a spot with only one way in and defend from there.

It's a great game that made the local multiplayer absolutely fun. We used to go play it after school almost every day (until one of the parents - who was the only one with the game - banned us from spending so much time there).. Good times.

What are you talking about? Wendy's is all over Germany at least. Personally I don't like their burgers, and from McDonald's I only like cheeseburgers - otherwise I rather eat in a real restaurant.
