SQL is Structured Query Language, an ISO standard since the 1980s. "Microsoft SQL Server" is as generic after the first word as "Windows Media Player". Other well-known products implementing subsets of the same standard have names like "SQLite", "MySQL", "PostgreSQL", and "ORACLE Database" (allegedly standing for "One Rich Aristocrat Called Larry Ellison").

Codenames like these were not intended for use by the general public. For example, Whistler was renamed to "Windows XP" and Longhorn to "Windows Vista" before the release candidate stage.

To me, Vizio means "TVs and computer monitors", like the VX32L TV that I'm using as a second monitor for my laptop as I type this very comment. And Vizio makes smart TVs, whose firmware would compete with what is now called Kodi.

Egg is on my face. I meant 1 cent, not 1 dollar.

Bear, not dog.

A judge might not buy that excuse.

Xbox 360 == X Square Circle. Can't be unseen.

I thought iOS isolated apps from one another, not letting apps "set flags" in other apps. It's not like Android, which has more general forms of inter-application communication like the ContentProvider.

Unless, of course, the game is not sold on disc at all. Many of these are games of smaller scope than a typical disc game.

Inability to get a reliable PlayStation 2 and 3 emulator running on a PlayStation 4, I'm guessing.

People who want specific titles that are on PlayStation but not Steam for Linux. These can be PlayStation exclusives, PS360 games that aren't ported to PC, or PS3/Steam games whose Steam version is Windows-only.

There are plenty of movies that aren't on Netflix streaming. Now if you meant Netflix's DVD service, then the Netflix of video games is called GameFly.

Cellular ISPs in the United States charge roughly $1 per MB. If the player spent 100 MB of data to download the free version, the player will have to spend another 100 MB of data to download the paid version, a few MB of data to upload the player's saved progress from the free version to the Internet, and a few MB of data to download the player's saved progress from the Internet to the paid version. IAPs save the player money on his data plan.

If the trial version and the full version are separate apps, then how would the player move saved progress from the trial version to the full version? Or would the player be forced to restart the campaign?

But once management finds out about their tweets, watch them end up fired for spilling the beans, like Nicole Crowther in this BI article, in favor of people who can keep their mouth shut. Then watch management find people like twitter, who can do the job of a dozen people.

What would it display for "price per hour" in the case of games that ship with one episode and use a one-time in-app purchase to "register" the game and unlock the entire rest of the campaign? Historical examples include Doom, which had "Knee-Deep in the Dead" without charge and two mission packs called "Ultimate Doom" and "Doom II".

It would also render invisible any games that use your suggested shareware model. There are two distinct kings of IAP: "entitlements", which are purchased once and stay with the user as long as the use continues to use the platform, and "consumables", whose purchase can be repeated. Purchases of paid apps are essentially an entitlement inside the App Store app, and registering shareware is the same as buying mission packs, which are entitlements. Most of the IAP ire comes from consumables like "smurfberries". What you appear to want is a way to hide apps that use consumable IAP while keeping those that use entitlements.

Unless none of the performance settings in the relevant version of CM offer comparable battery consumption to stock. I imagine that some power saving technologies in some devices might not have suitable drivers in CM.
