I would say like any immoral act, or potential crime it depends on the mindset of the offender. If I was a hack that needed to steal, I would try to steal from several sources to make the theft less obvious. But if I was overconfident (but still remained artistically underskilled), I would do what clearly appears to…

You are a douche. She said she likes the FireTV because of its simplicity, size and silence. The HTPC concept is a fine one, but for most people its either overkill on power or not attractive due to size, noise and cost.

Oh, I know it can be done. I don’t want a full sized PC under my TV. In fact, I would like none of my electronics visible in the room.

As an illustrator myself, this is 100% traced. They took the image, made a new layer on top of it and went to town.

Yeah, I was wondering why the language used was so tiptoe-y... it’s unequivocally a swipe. You can’t have that much similarity by coincidence.

MS saw Sony (Rightfully) as attempting to control the living room market and encroach on the PC world (they did attempt to get the PS2 classified as a personal computer) . MS has been attempting to get the living market for the PC for a long time, even before the console.

While I do think a dedicated streaming box option would still be superior for quick navigation of those services...I do think the Windows 10 UI with a Steam Controller is pretty decent.

It can’t be that “little” with that setup. I have built HTPCs for myself and there is simply a minimum size that’s well beyond what some people’s situation can accommodate. I’ve got that Coolermaster micro-ITX box, and as small as it is, it’s still a very long and fairly tall box just so it can accommodate a…

Sega was always behind and trying to get ahead. The NES and the SG-1000 came out at the same time, and the NES dominated it. So much, that you’ve probably never even heard of it (it was Japanese-only). Two years later, Sega would release the Master System in an attempt to fight it, and the NES was still winning. Three…

I agree with you. Although, I guess I can kind of get behind the logic of presenting a list of the modern best titles for a library as broad as the PCs. Because if I asked somebody which game I should get for my new gaming PC and they said Sim City 2000, I’d ask them to try again.

Oh, I’ve said many times: you don’t argue with the ideologue to win. You argue to give the lurker a reason to doubt the ideologue!

What you see as demonizing, others see as criticism.

—Just make your panel about “online harrassment” or “women in video games” or “ethics in gaming journalism” and leave that useless label to the dustbins of history—

Same for me. It looks a lot like watching a 3D video on the 3DS.

It’s astounding that people are continuing to explain why the iPod should have been a failure. 14 years after it was a breakaway success. :P

IKR! It’s so obvious! Just look at how the ring in the explosion is misaligned with the equatorial trench, which is where you’d expect it to come from if the explosion actually originated in the core.

Ask yourself, who benefited MOST from the destruction of the first Death Star?

fallout is no longer an isometric turn based rpg (fallout boy sad face with a slouch). but wait there’s more! warcraft is no longer an RTS, its an MMO, silent hill is no longer survival horror, its a slot machine. resident evil is no longer survival horror, its a third person action game. monster hunter no longer…

It looks like the world is made of paper. Reminds me of Tearaway.

Easiest answer, the one tweeting that photo is the one who put it there in the first place. No complicated theories, no wild speculation, people just do it because this is the internet.
