The Holy C

What about making a UI contest?
Open some of your APIs, let us write views, and host them so that people can choose to use them.

I would be interested in a smartphone app that does not amount to a screenscraper...

Yeah, those S&M guys really like to have us suffer...

That would require 10^14 floppy drives, and they probably would eat all of Earth's energy throughput.
Disclaimer : I would be quite entertained too. Even more with 5''1/4 drives.

There are a lot of electrical effects that can generate electricity without a turbine, but we have found them to be useless at MW scale.

Caesar had it all right, with the violent circus games.
We can now achieve this catharsis without spilling blood, thanks to video games!

They did not "pull it together".
Several big copyright holders demanded a solution, and one of them could convince a minister who started a state commission (directed by the PDG of FNAC, a French media and hi-fi retailer) mandated to review possibilities.
Those copyright holders might be worthless too, but they are still different from MPAA, and France is a very different country from the USA.

There is no US-like class-action lawsuit in French law.
Also, the "entertainment industry" is actually quite fragmented, there are a lot of smaller groups which could not afford a proper lawsuit

Why does that sound like Air Scotland?

I'm not a cop, but I have a hard time laughing seriously. How do you do it? :p
