Insurance companies does that and you don't see anyone creating a riot or bitch about it. People lived with it unfortunately. Lots of other company have that capability too. Any company who has info on you could look at it... whats the news here ??? really. this is really stupid and old news. This shouldn't be here...

You don't even know the story of SW E7 and you say its crap ? wow, your an idiot. Wait until they give some hints to the movie and then judge if you want. All I can say is lots of stories in the Star Wars universe are really good; think of Star Wars knights of the old republic for example. ok ok, not the same timeframe but story quality is something I haven't seem for a while. Also true that episode 1, 2 and 3 were not the same quality but thats mainly because they used science to explain the jedy powers which really ruined the mood. Besides, episode 1 through 3 was already known since we had a big idea what was going on in his life. What left a blank to me and would of been great story is from the beginning Anakin used the whole darth vader suit which he his very young up to the point where episode 4 starts which if everyone remember THAT darth vader is old...he aint young.
Censorship

+ - Was China's Blocking of Google a Mistake or a Test?->

DavidGilbert99 writes "Google.com, Gmail, Google Maps, Google Drive, Google Play and more were inaccessible from mainland China for up to 12 hours on Friday evening/Saturday morning. Was this a simple mistake, or a test to see what the public's reaction would be?

Simply blocking Google.com and its related sub-domains such as (mail.google.com, play.google.com, maps.google.com etc) could potentially have been a mistake, but adding Google.com.kk and Google Analytics (which would require tow separate actions) suggests it was no mistake).

Chinese authorities could be trying to gauge public opinion on the blocking of Google and Gmail ahead of a more widespread censorship in the future."

I usually pirate software before I try them. If it's worth it, I will buy it. Same thing with games. Is it worth it to spend 60 for a 8-16 hours game that I will trow away in the garbarge or let it gather dust in my cabinet cause I only played it once ... or is it worth 60$ cause I still play today and the replay value is very strong. With software, is it worth 50$ and more depending on the usage I need from it. lots of software are just overpriced for my needs. That's bad cause I know some software that I would buy the their price is very questionable.

Prove to me..or us here, people of /. that piracy is anti-business. Give me stats, hard numbers to make me shut up. Afaik, piracy helps business in an indirect way like it or not.

This proves the people are ready and fast enough to adapt to new technologies...corp, companies and organisations are not. This is what capitalism and bureaucracy is right now. It's not adapting fast enough. My little finger tells me bbc or some other cable company will say at the end of the olympic game "fukk, we could made billions by making people pay to see it online without making them pay others (ie: proxies and other 3rd party provider) to view the event... fffffuuuu"

This proves that linux is the best community. They base most (if not all) of their decisions on their community rather than cash, corporatism or capitalism. I'm not saying the other community are bad but next to linux...it's hard to beat. Look at fedora, they fed team noticed a trend towards another desktop manage, they viewed it, they listened and they changed direction which I must say it pretty rare these days. I know some dev team work with themselves only and formed a closed group and base their decision based on the dev only and not the community unless the demand is getting excessive.

It gotten to be a turd only because the market was already saturated at that point. By the time the dreamcast went out, other consoles were already on the market. At best, the Dreamcast was just picking the leftovers of the pie for its share. Investors weren't satisfied so they had to back up. Today, when you release a console, you can either release it soon with a couple of games on your hand and hope the developers will pick it up and continue to release some games or...

you take a change of releasing the console after some others release it and at the same time, try to keep up the hype with some PR scheme and release lots of games after its release. The important part in a consoles life is after its release, devs, publishers and everyone else has to keep support the console to keep selling their crap. Nintendo figured that with the Wii console. Like it or not they've put all their money on that part because they targeted family and it worked.
