"Blaming God is like blaming a knife or gun for a person's death without looking directly at the person and their ulterior motives."

What I would most like to see in regards to the Firefox Beta, is a comparison between it, the stock browser, and the Chrome Beta browser. Others could be fine too (perhaps Dolphin, etc), but I think that with how solid Chrome Beta has been, i'd be interested to see how they compare.
It ends up being a pretty simple argument with both sides having a point of which neither will give in to. One side says it's 'No loss, I wouldn't have bought it otherwise', while the other says 'If you wouldn't have bought it, why are you downloading it?'
Q: Who texts while driving?
I've thought the same thing and kind of wished for it. But, I understand the marketing reason for it.
My apologies if I didn't make my thought clear. I didn't mean to imply that Christians and people who call themselves thus do not say stupid things. Christians, just like many, (also including, again, those who call themselves 'Christians' but are actually just fashionably faithful)
Hold on there sparky, why is it a Christian saying that?
Oh, for sure I agree with that. I haven't actually seen it either, I just know that a surprising amount of people have commented specifically on that. :)
It's kinda funny you should say that, but I recall that one of the biggest discussion pieces of the US version of 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo' was the opening credits.
It's not about 'real' dollars that the industry lost, but about the value of what was taken in every theft.
I make the assumption that performing an illegal act is illegal. It's completely irrelevant if they would see the film in theaters otherwise (or if they did and downloaded it), the fact is, they committed an illegal act, period.
Billions of $ of thievery is a pretty easy number to get to. You can't cite Batman is an excellent example, because it was also one of the highest pirated ones. If every one of those downloads was instead either a ticket or a dvd/blu-ray purchase,.. that's hundreds of millions of dollars right there. One movie.
I would say I agree that there are many laws in place for those violations, but it's pretty obvious that they aren't effective. That's the reason it's still an issue.
It's fantastic that you are exactly the reason that SOPA and PIPA were proposed, and 100% of the reason that legislation like that is required.
My guess is they are going on Single Phone sales percentage, or else perhaps Single Company sales percentage (i.e. Android is made by Samsung, HTC, Motorola, etc). It's not an invalid statement, just may require some explanation.
LoL. Actually, I was born in 1985. To be fair, I don't see that as relevant. I am every bit as welcome to my opinion as you are yours, and I know plenty who were born when they came out that feel similar to mine.
I personally don't care what anyone says, I enjoyed Episodes 1-3, and Episodes 4-6.
I can't comment on Eli Stone, since I haven't seen it, but I rather enjoyed No Ordinary Family, and Fringe / Warehouse 13 are some of the best written shows i've seen in a long time. That gives me a lot of hope for a show about someone without Super Powers.
Unless (as they stated very transparently), even the more high end computers (which is not the majority by any means) could not run it effectively and efficiently.
In regards to your last sentence, I thought the same until I re-learned my approach to Star Wars.
