The last Samsung I had spent more time back at the shop than in my pocket... I do not think that LG are as good as Apple but at half the price I think they are better value. I have a Sony Xperia in my pocket at the moment and it is good but only because it was free. I am a fanboy and prefer Apple but I am really fed up with all this BS and the price tags for what is now an old design.

Apple and Samsung are both overpriced but while they fight it out LG are quietly bringing out some really good cheap and cheerful phones with all the bells and whistles at much better prices.

yes rabbits would be a good idea. They are smaller and cuter than elephants and they eat grass as well...

Why should I have to go and get something that I have already bought, paid for and had delivered? Will they recompense me for my time and inconvenience? I doubt that but even if they did, unless they refunded the whole some by way of apology, I would still be pissed. This has all gone to far and I, as someone who had always been happy to buy lots of games in the past, download the cracked copy every time now because I do not want to put up with this BS. If I cannot play the game, when I want (i.e. no need for internet etc.) I would rather have a copy. If I am going to have to go online (to download half the game) I may as well download an entire game. I am not even prepared to put the CD into the drive every time I want to play (why should I? My CD drive is not internal!), I just want to play.

I have got about a cubic metre of games that I have bought in my room but now I download. I do not mind paying but I do mind having to put up with all the shit. If they provide good extras (manual maps etc.) I will buy it and download the crack. For me it is not about the money, it is about being able to play it when I want.

The best thing about SOPA and PIPA is that now people all over the world are seeing how dangerous it is to rely on the US for important services. We are switching to DNS servers that cannot be regulated by absurd US law suits. The internet is changing to an US and us internet whereby we can see things you cannot. The Great Firewall of the USA is being built and good luck to those in the US that are letting it happen. The idea is just as idiotic as the Chinese version and less workable.

If you look at the settings on Vuze you will find that this is already a normal thing to do.

Several years ago I ran out of petrol going down a hill. I was able to coast into the petrol station further down the hill and put a load more petrol into my car. When I tried to start the car it would not start. I thought that it needed to pump the petrol from the tank to the engine and kept trying. What I did not know was that I had not run out of petrol, the petrol pipe had broken and the petrol was not getting to the carburetor, it was getting sprayed all over the engine and the floor. By the time the puddle of petrol finally managed to catch a spark from the starter motor the puddle had already spread under the car at the next pump. Most of the petrol station was destroyed. It was amazing to see so many people run so fast...

I do not accept that this theoretical risk of fire comes close to the real risk of fire in a normal engine...

the second most intelligent creatures on the planet

and which species gets the #1 spot? Ants?

Will I have to go to Pirate Bay to get a copy of Pirate Bay for my thumb drive or will I go to a thumb drive copy for the latest version :-D

You are writing in the future tense but this is already happening... I use http://malaysiabay.org/ because it is nearer to me and therefore quicker...

If they take that down I am sure that a copy will be up within hours... As usual the only people that will really benefit from all this are the lawyers.
