That's "biracial overlords", you insensitive clod!

(Though I also would have accepted "secret Muslim overlords.")

According to Circuit City's new homepage, CC's Canadian operations "will continue" and "are not affected by the liquidation of Circuit City's U.S. operations."

Suddenly I'm glad that my wife didn't argue with me when I said "no thanks" to the $200 "extended warranty" Circuit City offered us when we bought a flat screen TV there last week.

I'm not a Steam basher, but it occurs to me that most of the games I've been enjoying lately are almost 20 years old and developed by companies that either don't exist anymore or are shadows of their former selves that don't support their old products.

I'm very glad the ability to play those games does not in any way depend on the continued success of a particular publisher.

I guess the typical gamer who doesn't play anything older than a year or two has little reason not to use Steam, though.
