No, it's now "With an IOS device". The phone related patent was claimed a few years back by a competitor, but clearly should not apply in Apple's case..

H.265? "H.265 is said to double the data compression ratio compared to H.264/MPEG-4 AVC at the same level of video quality"

The software obviously wasn't ready when the probe launched. They needed nine more years to develop it. Had they waited, the probe wouldn't be near the comet in time. So it's a rather smart decision.

Yeah, better kill the ones that have a good life in nature as well, these animals must sure be darn tasty.

Sure, until the DNS steering comittee becomes headed by the representatives of Iran, North Korea, Pakistan and Jemen.

I'm sure you can somehow change your DNS cache to flush immediately.
Run a local DNS server on the same machine for extra points. I bet the cheat authors will respond by implementing their own DNS lookup.

I am a consumer. I have lots of rights or Steam wouldn't be allowed to take my money. I don't care about their terms when they are illegal. If they think they can take drastic measures they'd better be well prepared for consumer watchdog hell to be unleashed. Especially for a service which is rumored to bring in over a billion dollar in yearly revenue.
