Not true, actually. They ruled that customers that have signed a contract with a clause to that effect are bound to it. AFAIK, there is no settled case law saying that a shrinkwrap EULA is equivalent to a valid, signed contract.

Not true.

From another page on the linked site:

And another, specifically metioning streaming.

Except, FTP isn't a piece of software. It's a Protocol. As far as I can tell from a cursory search, no particular FTP daemon is still in wide use that was written 40 years ago.

OK now I hate DLC as much as anybody, but I don't really see Just Cause 2 as an example of a "half game" without the DLC. Did you actually look at the list you linked? There are a few weird vehicles, a couple moderately updated guns (remember this is a single-player game), and.... not much else. It's not like you need to pay to unlock half the map.

I'm enjoying Just Cause 2, and I have not purchased and do not plan to purchase any DLC.

You guffaw, but I entered this comment with voice recognition.

Dear aunt, let’s set so double the killer delete select all

er.... oops?

Wait, what?

I thought Xcode only worked on macs.

Did Apple start giving away free computers?

According to Google, that's Birmingham Town Hall!

Perhaps that's part of Capita's plan to ensure payment in full...

This could be because the MBR partitioning method doesn't work for drives larger than 2TiB, and Hard Drive manufacturers are afraid of confusing consumers with the GUID Partition Table?

Right, because Cruise Control Software is in no way related to acceleration, right?

I'm not sure if it's the same MuscleNerd or not, but the one I've seen on the 'tubes before predated The Big Bang Theory by several years. See, e.g., this thread on TiVo hacking.

I'm not sure I see how this would help Nintendo. Doesn't every school-age kid already have a DS? It sure seems that way among all the kids I've seen lately...

Maybe if the school versions were remotely monitored? The teacher could use a DSi XL to view 93% more students!

I don't really think Snowflake Bentley has been "long forgotten", as the summary implies. Our homeschooled children just finished a unit study on him a few weeks ago (which doesn't prove anything of course except that he's still well known enough for there to be unit studies made available on him...).

In fact, a book about him, appropriately titled Snowflake Bentley won the Caldecott medal as recently as 1999!
