Getting a civil engineering degree in what was probably the 70s or early 80s doesn't mean you had to be any good with computers.

One of the many reasons NBC is doing this is because they aren't just NBC. They (NBC/Univeral) also own like 6-10 other cable channels, which they get paid for when you get a cable subscription. And which they actually use to air a bunch of Olympic events as well.

CounterStrike: Global Offensive. Has that even been shown on consoles yet?

In theory, if the $15 a month includes Live Gold service, then you'd be paying $459 for a bundle that retails at $420 regularly ($300 Xbox w/ Kinect, 2 $60 Gold cards). So, nope, still doesn't make sense unless you literally only have $100 to spend right now. In which case, you probably shouldn't be buying an Xbox…

Metal Gear of Duty?

Anne Hathaway tried gritty and complicated once. And it turned into one of the worst movies I've ever watched just for the sake for breasts in Havoc.

None of that seems any different from how investing in start-ups works without Kickstarter. The only difference is that Kickstarter makes it easier to invest (especially with small amounts of money), so you're more likely to have people that decide to invest without doing any research first.

This is why that minimum amount of time for a Kickstarter campaign is so important. It makes it less likely for things like this to go all the way through because it gives people enough time to actually investigate what they're giving their money to.

I gave Girls a chance. I actually wanted it to be good, I really did. But...........................no.

Ever seen "Catch Me If You Can"?

Let me rephrase. They may want to make it a law, but as your link explicitly states, it isn't. What I don't doubt is that they'd still like to make it a law, but it probably isn't going to happen anytime soon, and they best they can do is the shrink-wrap EULAs that probably won't hold up in court.

I don't doubt that they're trying to make it law, but right now the only way that they can actually go after these hackers is to get them on distributing software, not hacking the hardware. What Sony actually tried to sue GeoHot over was distributing part of the original OS as part of his hack, and whether or not he…

Okay.

Re-reading the article, I can definitely see how it could be interpreted that way.

Actually, they weren't even reading them, they'd just count the number of positives and subtract the number of negatives and that would be it.

That's the thing, they don't actually cut it from the dev cycle if you read the quote. It looks like they spend the dev time to actually get it working (probably just without some of the polish), then if it isn't up to snuff they cut it at the end and don't ship it with the game. In general, this would make for a more…

Technically, the issue isn't actually hacking your device. Never has been. You buy the device, you generally can hack it all you want. The issue is with distributing your hack to everyone else. If you really were just doing it for yourself, you'd do it, maybe show some proof, and that'd be it. Most of the people at…

I think the reason they probably haven't leaked very much is because it's probably not a normal video file. It probably has its own codec that it uses to play it (because, truthfully, size isn't something they need to worry too much about, so there would be little need to use the standard codecs out there). Hell, I…
