    Disney Removes Advertising from YouTube in Response to Child Exploitation Videos

    The algorithm is working as intended, but it's being exploited. The algorithm exists for convenience and to consolidate ad revenue. Take away the algorithm and people will start getting advertisements for things that have nothing to do with the person's demographic and/or have to search for...

    Crytek Moves on Cloud Imperium Games

    Not sure how people are claiming a victory for either side, really. All this means is that Crytek can take things to court, not that they won. On top of that, as mope54 has stated, punitive damages are out the window, which means any possibility high value payout is eliminated. This really does...

    New NVIDIA Game Ready Driver for a Game I have Never Heard of

    I kickstarted this way back when and it looks quite promising. Comparing it to Skyrim is inevitable, but I would say that's like comparing Sonic the Hedgehog and Super Mario Brothers. Both share a some elements, but it simply depends on what you find fun.

    Steve Jobs Awarded Posthumous Grammy

    Ehh...not entirely correct. iTunes is its own kill switch and can, and has, erased music/movies/etc. from a device that is synced with it if the computer it is currently syncing with does not have the appropriate music/movie/etc. in its library. This prevents you from easily syncing with...

    Steve Jobs Awarded Posthumous Grammy

    That sums up a point pretty well. Not the entirety of my argument, but what the hell. Apple is just the same as any other company out there, but I would even go further and say they are much worse than Google. Think of Google except now Google has complete access to their own hardware...

    Steve Jobs Awarded Posthumous Grammy

    You really think so? Apple just isn't getting caught is all. Android is much less opaque than iOS, hence why you're seeing much more instances of this. What happens to a developer when they 'out' Apple doing something 'bad'? They get kicked out of the development program and don't get access to...

    Steve Jobs Awarded Posthumous Grammy

    Just like how Apple responded to a lot of pther people's success with several features that weren't around until a year after other people had them in their products. It's simply the developmental cycle. iOS products have hardly defined anything. It simply made it more accessible to the mass...

    Steve Jobs Awarded Posthumous Grammy

    Steve Jobs was actually very good at what he did. He didn't innovate or come up with new things, but he did make it easier to use those things. One could argue that he is the poster boy for the way society is headed, which is not having to think about what you're doing because it's being...

    Penny Arcade The Bully?

    This is merely sensationalist journalism to bump up page views honestly. He showcases the incident as an argument against something that has no bearing on the incident. Customer is treated badly by business/entity/corporation. Customer threatens entity with exposure, since customer has no...

    Amazon Running A Sweat Shop?

    Working at Amazon is not the dream job a lot of people make it out to be. Also, realize that making $12/hr. in California is not the same as making $12/hr. in New York. I've worked for Amazon in their Lexington, Ky facility and I have to say that there is no conceivable reason to like the...

    F.E.A.R. 3

    You also want to turn off the 'console' settings within options, such as aim helping and such like that. I find the game to be incredibly fun for what it is and a good continuation of the series as a whole. The multiplayer is rehashed stuff from other games that will get boring soon enough...

    Apple Refuses To Return Stolen Phone

    Nope. Apple has no methods in place for proof of ownership on the iphone. Would you go to HP if your computer got stolen? Or perhaps you'd go to Chrysler in case your car got stolen?

    Apple Refuses To Return Stolen Phone

    Having an email and name on account doesn't mean diddly. It simply means you had called in about the phone previously, not that you actually own it. As has been pointed out, there are too many scenarios where things could be different than what they seem. The correct path to follow in this...

    Cleaning Saitek Eclipse Keyboard?

    You have to pop the support pads from the four corners to expose the screws there. They're adhesive, so once you get under one corner, its easy to peel them off.

    Need a Power Supply recommendation

    That's not the right one. This is the Powerstream, not GameXstream. This one has 2 +12V rails, 1 at 20A and the other at 18A.Model# is OCZ-600ADJ. http://www.xpcgear.com/ocz600adj.html

    Need a Power Supply recommendation

    Well, let's go with this route then. I don't think the power supply itself would have any problems running the new system, as it's been rated very well in reviews and such. My concern is more about the PCI-E connectors, of which it only has one. Since I am going to run SLI, wouldn't I need a...

    Statement about Bannings and Malicous Rumors @ [H]

    Someone was trying to claim BFG is bad? Heh. Why not claim Windows has the least market share? I started out with a 6800 Ultra and had it replaced 3 times before they finally replaced it with a 7800 GS. Can't say BFG doesn't stand by their cards and their customer service is excellent...
