It would be nice if they allowed the system to update the cartridges with the DLC and updates and our save states in the next switch or even this current one. Maybe the v2 switch can be more like a hub that can stream games to any tv in the house. No more docking and undocking or fighting over the tv with the kids. They can just play in their respective rooms. You can have local and internet based multiplayer on separate TVs without having to have a dedicated console for each TV.

What it supposed to stop is companies like Comcast from double dipping. They want to charge me for internet access and then charge netflix to make sure the data I requested from netflix actually gets to me. This is no better than a mobster telling me it would be a shame if something happened to your packets unless you pay protection money. The fact that they want to prioritize a certain website's traffic over someone else means they will by default be creating a slow lane for those that don't pay. As for you New York investment computers analogy they are paying for direct access to the exchanges which is different than what Comcast and other ISPs want to do. The closest analogy I can think of that you will understand will be is like lanes on a bridge. They NYSE built their own lane for their use only using their own money. Nothing wrong with that. Comcast wants to take an existing 4 lane bridge that everyone has equal access to and block off two lanes for those that are willing to pay the toll and force everyone else into the other two lanes.

I'm sure the soldiers who fought in Fallujah and the civilians that lived and died through it would beg to differ about fighting with kid gloves

It was always destined to be a losing battle. How do you convince people to not only "hack" their phone but trust a third party service that was shady at best to purchase and support applications from a place that by definition requires you exploit security bugs in your phone to use. The risk/reward may be in favor for the few that like to tinker but not for the other 99.9% of the world. For those that will chime in that they own the phone and should be able to do as they please with it, if you don't like it there are other phone manufacturers to choose from that allow you to customize to your heart's content but if you want to play in Apple's world you have to follow their rules.

The default should always be I have an expectation of privacy and a warrant needed regardless. My digital history should not be a carved out exception. This involves metadata too. Yes it would require more work on the cops. Yes I want to see bad guys captured and punished accordingly but it should not be done at the expense of civil liberties. As for the sentence, this throw everyone in jail for 100s of years as the be all end all solution for everything has to stop. How many defendants could serve out their sentences doing community service or public service in general instead of in jail.

Wouldn't the better solution be to start removing legacy support? Prevent applications from running that aren't compiled for the more recent versions of Windows. Force developers to adhere to the recommended security measures of the system or else.

Exactly. You've become personally invested in the character. Vincent D'Onofrio did a great job playing Fisk, you begin to understand his motivations and what drives him as a character. As far as reboots go this is one of the best and shows this could be the norm rather than the exception. Personally I would rather see future game/comic adaptations be done in a similar format rather than an over budget, time crunched movie.

The stories were okay and Milla Jovovich did a great job but the the sequels were completely ruined by how many cuts they made. Watching The Final Chapter was like watching a series of 5 second clips stitched together. I'm a big fan of what Netflix has done with Daredevil, Luke Cage. The fight scenes, stories, the attention to detail, the subtle use of cuts, the development of the character(s) over time none of which Hollywood is doing anymore. I hope netflix keeps up with what they are doing as I see this as the future of movies.

New Bukkake theory that was already proposed by nephilimfree. I'm sure he will feel vindicated that his"theory" of the flood putting life on the moon now has scientific backing.

Michele Bachmann on House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence.. Oh wait. Seriously though what could possibly go wrong.

I see Gamestop and other retailers will have access to the MS database for authorization of keys for games but what about person to person? What happens if I purchased it second hand off of Ebay/Amazon/Craigslist and they didn't deauthorize the game from their account before selling. Am I to pay a small fee on top of the purchase of the game to be legit, file a dispute with Ebay/Amazon? This will just add more cost on to them and I hope they push back. If the publishers want more money how about you quit spending $10+ million on making a game and charging $60 for the privilege to sit and wait for patches to be downloaded and installed before we can play because you rushed it out to market to fast. How about you actually make a complete game that doesn't require spending $X more for DLC that should've included in the first place. Its stunts like this that make me long for the days of cartridges.

Hell I was in drunken stupor for two weeks over Trebek losing his mustache. I finally decided it wasn't worth fretting over a Canadian and his silly lip hair after waking up one morning with 2 ladies of lower standing telling me I'm their babies' daddy.

Whats your view on the current trend of desktops to be more like their tablet/phone cousins? Do you see any features that can be brought over from either side without sacrificing usability? Also how do you feel about black turtleneck shirts?

We seen how well rolling releases worked for gentoo. Sounds to me you want service pack updates similar to windows and OSX. Which I'm fine with but where do you draw the line on which applications get updated to their newer versions? Are just talking about applications like Firefox, Open Office? What about applications like RhythmBox that are tied to their DE. Hell do we push the latest DE(GNOME/KDE) updates out like you want for Firefox?

Well if by penguin you mean a Thylacine with a fruity logo tattooed on its ass ran by a megalomanical turtle neck wearing hippie, then sure why not. How's that for thinking "outside the regular rectangular prism"
