If your Xmas was ruined by not being able to play computer games maybe you should find more hobbies.

I remember when the iPhone was released and people said the same thing.
Google is sitting on a mountain of IP for both projects. Some companies look a bit beyond next quarter's results.
I wish I could go into my job. Do something once and get paid for it forever.
You've still sold a user a book. They still have your book. They just skipped by the scanning every page part.
IMDB ratings are a complete and utter waste of time
Which is why it is relevant that the movie came out in 2009. After time they settle. Unless you're going to argue that "Shawshank Redemption" is just living on studio PR?
Perhaps if everyone else thought the movie was good your nieces and nephew just have bad taste. It was also a great book and highly rated by teachers.
You might want to use a different example for your first one:
Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs has 7.0/10 on IMDB (after 5 years), got an 87% on Rotten Tomatoes, 66 on MetaCritic (with an average user score of 7.6),
It was a good movie.
"This is the End" was also pretty good with a 6.9/83%/67/7.1 (respectively).
DS9 was great with the philosophical questions.
I wish we'd explore more into the quadrants than "lets reset the clock and start over"
I remember his first year when it was a 'hoax'. Then the next year he went all in and made it real. As ugly as his website should be I hope some version exists in archive.org, he's been a christmas tradition since early 2000s when I first heard about him on Fark or Slashdot.
The point isn't the number of lights he has. The point is how interactive his site has always at least seemed to be.
I wish they would had put their efforts into Debian's kFreeBSD. It can't move to systemd and they downgraded it from an 'official' Jessie release.
Personally it's a bit of the best of FreeBSD and the best of Debian (apt-get) in a nice package. There's no problem with ZFS being 'in' the kernel. The latest versions of FreeNAS and FreeBSD both have ZFS booting.
Plus it still has all the debian server admin tools.
Someone on Reddit pointed out that the author may be using the wrong character.
Are we certain—certain—that this is about the use of hyphenated words, and not the misuse of hyphen (-), en-dash (–), and em-dash (—) characters? Like, the way an en-dash is used where an em-dash should be used three times in this paragraph:
XBMC is now Kodi.
Plex was OSXBMC renamed. The sources got quite divergent when Plex went more commercial.
I wonder what it would take for Dish to just start their own channels and programming.
Netflix has done it. Amazon has done it. Yahoo is doing it with Community. I would actually subscribe to dish if they had new original programming and not Fox News.
They could strike like they do in Montreal by not wearing Standard issue uniforms.
Having members and actually having power are two different things, the person you replied to was saying unions don't exist with the teeth that they used to.
We have unions in name only. Every single time the UAW contract comes up at my company they rabble back and forth and then "hurray, we reached an agreement." Union bosses and contractor get their cut for the 'negotiation'. Employees don't really get anything and the people at top win.
The standard of living for a lot of the US would improve if more people unionized (like programmers) and actually demanded a fair wage instead of getting worked to death by EA and the likes.
NK also had the opportunity to do it against a non-government entity. If they hacked into the US or any other country it would be grounds for war or even more sanctions.
NK gets to flex their hacking ability against multinational corporation without risking war. Sony gets egg on their face. Big brother China is probably pleased since Sony is a Japanese company.
If there is anything I learned in college it's that you can walk into about anywhere with a stack of pizzas.
Just walk towards a door and fumble with it and someone will badge you in.
