    Amazon Hits Customers with Price Increase in Europe

    Yep, I've been a prime member for 3 years now, and I've barely used streaming. If it was available on a mobile device other than a Kindle, I might use it more, but even that's doubtful. However, I do enough shopping to justify the cost, in addition to leveraging the extra 15% discount on...

    Secret Santa For One Reddit Reader Was Bill Gates

    Word. If people put as much effort into building up others around them as they do trying to criticize them, the world would be a much better place. Love or hate Microsoft, Bill Gates is, in my mind, the epitome of what the wealthy should be. Also, for those who say that he's making so much money...

    World’s Largest QR Code

    Why not do it? This is totally awesome, IMO (and yes, I still scan QR's)!

    U.S Government Accused of Surveilling Citizens

    Agreed. This is way past tin-foil hats. It's common knowledge and they are barely even trying to cover it up anymore.

    Java Zero Day Flaw Puts Millions of Users at Risk

    As a system administrator, I hate Oracle, Java, Flash, Shockwave, AIR, Firefox, Internet Explorer, Office, and Windows (at least from a patching standpoint). :D

    Free Windows Version Of Blu-ray Copy

    Sounds sketchy to me. I haven't downloaded it, since I use MakeMKV, but for those who want to try this app, I would suggest uploading it to virustotal.com. That will run it through 50+ virus scanners and give you the results.

    Apple Claims DOJ Sides With The Monopoly

    Sounds about right to me. I just hope the DoJ hits them more than the usual slap on the wrist.

    Kodak Park Had A Nuclear Reactor

    Rochestarian here as well. I was surprised when I read that in the Sunday paper. I guess they kept it under pretty good wraps.

    Rovio’s Follow-up to Angry Birds: Amazing Alex

    Incredible Machine was one of my favorite games in years past, so I welcome a reboot. I only hope it's just as awesome!

    Why Pirates Failed To Prevent The Avengers' Box Office Record

    I thoroughly enjoyed it. Personally, I think it's the best Marvel movie to date and I'm happy to see it doing so well. However, I'm a Joss Whedon fan, so maybe that biased me a little. Still, I thought the acting was solid and the character portrayals were pretty spot on. There were a couple of...

    DOJ May Sue Apple Over eBooks As Early As Tomorrow

    That's one of the main reasons I hate Apple so much and refuse to purchase any of their products. I also hate that everything is proprietary and overpriced, but everything else about them is great! :D

    Mass Effect DLC Character "IS" On The Disc

    Dammit, hit the wrong quote button. This is the post I was actually referring to.

    Mass Effect DLC Character "IS" On The Disc

    Haha, I just LOL'd at that. Sadly, I won't be plunking my cash down until they release the inevitable game of the year edition with all the DLC. I figure that should be out in 8-12 months.

    Justice Department Threatens Apple And Others With Lawsuit

    This shit is exactly why I hate Steve Jobs and refuse to purchase any Apple products. If and when they ever decide to start to actually caring about their customers more than making money hand-over-fist, then I might start buying from them.

    Not unexpected, but still good to hear it confirmed. Hopefully he will get things back on track for Sony.
