Why the first and last four ?

On the web site, the payment methods only display the last four. Are you telling me they kept the first four "just in case" ?

One could hope they store the last 4 four digits separately, and the full one in a place that can only be written and not read by the web site systems. But then, one could hope the one(s) responsible for this understand the basics of security.

And then again ... first and last four ? How so ?

A) 1234-XXXX-XXXX-5678 ? Waste of space ? Really ?
B) 12345678 ? Then why tell they are the first and last four digits ? Did the thief really needed more information on what he got ?
C) 1234-9999-9999-5678 ? Call me paranoïd but given the "first and last" I can't help but think it's likely.

I don't understand why no group of (American) consumers has ever organized to buy a lot of product (ie: one each); then return said product because of the ridiculous EULA. After all you can only see it when you open the box. It should be printed all over, or readily available next to the boxes. Of course there is the risk that people would start to know what they are (blindly) agreeing to. (I expect some can actually read)

Can a shop reject the return of the game because of the EULA how would they justify it ?

I expect it's less of an issue with digital shops since a simple click could lead to an EULA that "nobody" would read.

Nowadays I feel EULAs are looking more and more like "you agree to give us money and we agree to take your money. The service, product, support, ... may or may not work, exist and/or publish some private details of your live. It's not our problem, nor our fault.".

I wonder if such EULAs have any weight in Europe.

Let's go wild : add a story to the bundle. Something to link all that pointless "action" together.
A bit avant-garde maybe ?

Wohoo !

A language is easy to learn: you only need to know how to loop, how to branch, how to define/make/call a function, an object and its methods and you are basically set.
What's less easy is the API: what are the tools, objects, functions, collections, IOs, whatever readily available to you with that language and does it cover what you are interested in. The difficulty here is that it's usually big, so at first it takes a while to find where is what you need.

Anyway that's not the issue here. First you have to think right. For this you should learn algorithmic (ie: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algorithmic ).
Then only you can pick a language. Take one with garbage collection: Visual Basic, Java, C# and avoid scripting languages.
When you will feel comfortable with one language the other ones should only require a minor effort.

I just see the game screen but cannot do a thing. (I don't have many add-ons)
Works fine with Opera.

The root will use DNSSEC ? So what ? It does not change a thing for anybody not wanting to take advantage of it.

_ one has to explicitely ask for the DNSSEC information to get it (it's a flag). Otherwise it's just a few more unused, somewhat heavy, records on the root zone files.
_ there are not a lot of TLDs using DNSSEC. Granted there is at least one (.se) and probably some are ready to unroll it too but it will not be done in a day.

When more TLDs, registrars and registrants will be DNSSEC compliant and when the end user will switch to this then only we will be able to really feel the increase in bandwidth.

The problem is that most of the Facebook users didn't closed their account when it happened.

I usually miss 4 shots before I get a "good" one.

When asked for such a simple task, bad developers (and smart-asses) do it like this:

System.out.println("1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10");

Of course if you ask instead for a quick-sort implementation, or a median (especially after a quick-sort ;) ), a RB-tree, an AVL-tree ... then it's easier to identify the losers.

The problem with common sense is that it does not always make sense.

The controller just looks like a controller.
If you zoom the 6 small shots you'll see it's different (and I would not pay 1 cent for the Datel one)
It has bumps and flats where the MS one is all splines.
It looks very cheap. Looking at it I get a "Chinese crap" feedback.
