I'll buy-in when they start hanging lawyers.

What could possibly go wrong?

I hate UPLAY... so much.

I battled with it on Far Cry 3. I still do not understand why I needed to login to UPLAY *after* I logged into Steam (where I played it from). Wasn't Steam enough of a DRM check for UbiSoft? 2 levels of login really?

AFAIK the original article was about someone who did not even install it correctly.. but still having to require it on top of Steam is just ridiculous.

And second to that would be a blood sugar level test, that's becoming more important..

If anything, the ISPs are broken, in that they see no justification in expanding their bandwidth as there is no profit in it. True that IPv4 has reached saturation, however that rolls into the ISPs attitudes (including wireless carriers) who are sitting on the fence instead of upgrading to IPv6. It all comes down to the bottom line... there is no profit in going to IPv6 for them.

Not a bother to you maybe...

In my work I find GSM carrier NAT infrastructure to be very annoying. Firmware running on the phone must be aware of a "use it or lose it" mentality in the carrier, in my experience this is usually around 15 minutes for TCP, then the NAT hardware flushes your route and it effectively disappears (breaking the protocol). UDP is even shorter.

In systems which must be bi-directional, this issue of keeping the connection alive is a concern, not so much for the phone but for the server which may be sending data back to the phone sporadically. It also forces the phone firmware to perform the initial connect, so useful server-based utilities are hard to put on the phone without modifying them.

IPv6 would (likely) provide a static IP address on the phone resolving all of these issues and providing better support for downstream communications from a base to the phone(s).

Sounds real familiar... happen at my work too. Even to the point of being shaking on software/firmware knowledge.

to drive Lister insane.

Yes with one exception.. Finite natural resources that are easy to access. It's all about blood for oil these days...

market saturation

I still have my original Blue and Yellow RadioShack Notebooks that I purchased when I was 12. As a practicing professional Engineer now I want to say thanks for that leg up.

For all the kiddies reading this, realize that back in the 80's there were no readily available resource other than small electronic stores and mail order catalogs for young people to feed their interest in electronics. The material that Forrest Mims wrote was an invaluable resource into learning how design digital circuits using the new IC technology for that time.

I never made that flanger/phaser (audio effect) circuit though...

5000 Gallons of Jello. Orange-flavored of course.

It makes perfect sense to the guy taking your 8,000 dollars every month. They are all for it.
