It's a good thing you don't like updating your OS, because with Android you truly will not have a choice.

Ok, I'll concede habitual lying and sexual assault charges, as those have troubled several presidential nominees. That still leaves...

• - Hundreds of Millions of Dollars in foreign debt
• - Attacks private citizens on Twitter, including teenage girls.
• - Defrauded American students out of at least $25M

I would argue any one of these make him unfit.

MS actually had some decent ideas, but totally dorked them up. If you want people to buy digital licenses, you have to make it more appealing than buying physical disks, not just force DRM on people. I thought roaming profiles (buy once, play anywhere) and game lending would have been two big selling points to get people excited about digital sales. They could have implemented these, but also allowed physical disks and offline play at the same time.

Good advice, but this person already had the drives protected with RAID. They accidentally deleted all of their files. I believe that FreeNAS and ZFS could handle 20TB fairly easily and provide snapshots to recover if you were to accidentally delete files.

Dear Sony,

On paper it might appear as though you are incentivising new game buyers. To me, however, you are calling buyers of used games (aka gamers) second class gamers that don't deserve the benefit of your full content. I'm sorry you lost $3.2 Billion this year, I know that's a LOT of money, but stop trying to milk every penny out of your fans and customers. That's why you've slowly been losing them for the past 10 years.

Do you know what people (and even many pirates) are willing to pay for? Convenience. Make your games easy to buy and play and ,yes, reinstall on a new machine and people just might return for more games.

I agree completely, but sadly the phrase "A fool and his money are easily parted" exists for a reason. There are a lot of suckers/professional shoppers/people with too much money out there. The American consumer mentality is a beast and everyone is fighting for a piece of the pie.

Most ISPs already throttle customer bandwidth by offering service packages, e.g. basic, premium, etc. (whether they adhere to their advertised rates is another argument) I don't have a problem with this as long as there is competition. Consumers need the option of choosing thier ISP so that pricing shenanagens don't get out of hand. But yeah, this is definitely an ongoing scheme to get more money for service they are already providing. Which is why consumers need choice.
