    Microsoft And Code.org Team Up To Bring ‘Minecraft’ To Hour Of Code

    The Computercraft mod is a much better way for kids to learn programming in Minecraft. They even have an easier version just for kids. Computercraft uses Lua. Which is easier to learn than Java. It's a good environment to learn the basics, and there's some pretty damn impressive turtle...

    ISPs and Rightsholders Extend “Six Strikes” Anti-Piracy Scheme

    I pirate all the time. Why? Because it's the most convenient way to watch what I want. Advertising and cable prices are becoming unreasonable. Especially when I'm only interested in a handful of shows. Honestly, most pirated content is not the best quality either. A better distribution media...

    Europeans Pay For It, Americans Like It For Free

    Buying anti-virus is a big waste of money. If you have critical stuff on your computer, and let other people use it, make them boot to linux. (Password protect the boot loader) Or make them use a VM. There are also a lot of virus infections that go right in and disable AV right out. If someone...

    Minecraft Now Has 100M Registered Users

    Verizon Seeks Payment For Carrying Netflix Traffic

    What's sad is you would probably squeeze below the 250GB a month if you just pirated everything. It's so screwed up a system that the most sensible option is the illegal one.
