Just for your reference purposes, most Western countries actually have 15 or there about as the age of consent. The USA is the only country in the West being a serious prude about it.
Don't think I'm right? Check this out: http://www.archive.org/web/web.php
Amusing that you uses Archive.org as an example, because the Wayback Machine fully respects robots.txt, even retroactively. If you eventually decide that your site should not be indexed by Archive.org, you can tell your robots.txt file to indicate that. Moreover, whenever the Archive.org bot comes by your site again and discovers it, it will not only not index your current site but also delete everything else it had on your site.
Now, of course, that is not to suggest that if you delete it from Archive.org and your own website, that the images and text is gone for good, another site may have re-hosted it. But I know none other than Archive.org that does it for a living and moreover, the very data in question will certainly be harder to find.
How is this
Because it has 'robotics' and 'Uncanny Valley' in its word cloud. Now you know how to get to front page of Slashdot.
Nimblebit just got a tonne of marketing over this - who cares about the ripoff? marketing 101 => success!
Yes, but Zynga just gave it to them. People listen because it is a good story (David vs Goliath). Since the games are practically the same, users have a choice. And most are likely to go with the one by the people who (understandably) feel cheated. In essence, Zynga brought this upon themselves. All they could have hoped for would have been Nimblebit A) saying nothing or B) being complete dicks about it.
I am not saying Zynga is going to be losing any sleep over this, but they did hand over free marketing to Nimblebit. You may then wonder whether Zynga and Nimblebit are secretly working together to steer up more noise about the already popular game.
It is not. They are closely related, but not the same.
As an American, I can assure you that you are absolutely correct.
Patriotism is bigotry.
Little wonder.
He is just confusing nationalism for patriotism. Words have no meaning any more. So I don't even know what bigotry means.
There is no snow in Copenhagen.
Do you want us to use Flash instead? O! Enlighten us, wise one, about the numerous other languages that are available for web browsers!
He got to the front page of Slashdot. I don't think I need to say more.
Of what you see in books, believe 75%. Of newspapers, believe 50%. And of TV news, believe 25% -- make that 5% if the anchorman wears a blazer.
