Yeah.... No. Developers aren't going to drop half a colour palette because you're too lazy to look into which TVs don't suck.

Nothing is worse than iTunes on Windows. It's literally the worst program in the entire world.

They're on AT&T...

With pointer acceleration enabled, move your mouse a set distance across your desk slowly, then try moving it the same distance but fast, and your cursor will move further. Whereas sensitivity just multiplies movement by the amount you choose. I like acceleration turned on (though not in games), but it's not a replacement for proper mouse sensitivity settings, it's barely even related.

Actually, you can use offline mode to get around this, it's actually even possible to play some games multiplayer over LAN with two computers on the same account... not that I've ever done that.

Yeah, because they couldn't possibly change the way you boot into a boot menu, guess we should never improve boot times then.

How about holding a button when turning on the computer?

This place has a proof of concept:

Psst, wrong hacker group.

The "hackers" who harassed Sony executives were random people from anonymous, and most likely, not hackers. The people who brought down the PSN are still unidentified. Lulzsec did hack and DDoS Sony, but it was nowhere near on the scale of the PSN hack. They did smaller stuff like hacking Sony Pictures/Music and releasing source code from the Sony Dev Network.

I wish people would actually know about the topic before giving their ignorant two cents, I mean, this stuff was being covered every few hours on news sites back then, if you had any interest at all (which you quite obviously do) you'd need to make a conscious effort to not see the details.

World of Warcraft patches, though yeah, nobody plays that anymore *rolls eyes*. Actually quite a few MMOs are now using their own custom bit torrent clients to share patches instead of having an unneeded patching infrastructure in place. Also yeah; Linux, Open Office, Eclipse. It's a shame that nobody has compiled a list so we can just c&p the counter argument to that common hyperbole.

Wouldn't all of that be considered circumstantial? I mean, the guy could just be a massive nerd, barely ever leaving his apartment, and just happened to pop to the shops at one point. I'm not saying he isn't guilty, in fact it all paints the picture that this guy is guilty, but I'm fairly certain that the points you make would be counted as circumstantial evidence in court.

Yeah, there seems to be a whole lot of anonymous cowards jumping on people for piracy and starting childish arguments in defence of ICE in this article. Starting to get weird.

How about a USB powered wireless bridge?

Ditto for Sky. Would a court order specify what kind of block is necessary?

Let me restate something for you. This has already been tried out in the UK and Australia successfully. You don't think a problem like that would've been though of and solved by now? Or are you and the other 100 people dreaming up this same stupid scenario smarter than everybody in the UK?

So if they make any big discoveries, I guess they'll have to make another Large Hadron Collider to confirm...
