    OnLive Has Bit The Dust?

    Couldn't have happened to a worse DRM scheme. More death of game streaming companies I say!

    Blizzard Doesn't Like Windows 8 Either

    It's better than a fixed RAID because you can just keep adding more and more drives to it. It's more akin to Synology's Hybrid RAID than anything. It's actually superior to a fixed RAID in everyway. And we actually do know everything about the store - because they've fucking written...

    Blizzard Doesn't Like Windows 8 Either

    Tell that to all of the Indie developers that love the kind of store-front they get with iOS. The Microsoft Marketplace will work just like the Windows Phone marketplace. You don't need to pay for validation checking like you do on a console. FFS people, would you stop with this baseless...

    Blizzard Doesn't Like Windows 8 Either

    I'm a desktop and gaming enthusiast and I plan on upgrading to Windows 8. The desktop is vastly improved with a lot of under the hood upgrades made to it that I feel it's definitely worth upgrading to. Not least of which to get the ability to use Storage Pools which is basically Drive Extender...

    Blizzard Doesn't Like Windows 8 Either

    And yet all of those games are RESTRICTED to running in the Metro interface and utilizing the WinRT set of APIs. They literally do not fucking compete with eachother. Steam, Origin, Impulse, whatever-the-fuck-blizzard uses all sell and compete against eachother for selling games that are...

    Blizzard Doesn't Like Windows 8 Either

    And yet it's still absolutely no threat to them because you can not purchase desktop applications through Microsoft's marketplace. So what they say is a "catastrophe for the PC" is really just a "catastrophe for my company's bottom line." It's not based on the fact that Windows 8 is...

    Blizzard Doesn't Like Windows 8 Either

    I don't remember Valve bitching when Apple launched the Mac App Store after they launched Steam. And that competes with Valve even more than Microsoft's App Market since you can only install Metro applications through Microsoft's - you can't even install desktop applications. I really do not...

    Mozilla Releases Firefox 15 Beta

    Looks like Mozilla got sick and tired of lazy ass add-on developers not fixing their memory leaks. If you haven't read up on it, that's basically the biggest thing that Fx 15 is bringing to the tablet. Apparently there's quite a few add-ons (especially those that aren't hosted on AMO) that never...

    Facebook to Start Targeted Ads Based On Apps

    I've used messages but I've never used Find Friends. I have that intentionally Element blocked with Social Fixer because it annoys the hell out of me. It always recommends some individual with "one friend" in common. Like I'm supposed to know all of the friends of friends of friends :confused:

    Microsoft Outlines Patch Tuesday Updates

    What's with the quotes they put around 'most secure?' Do they really think IE9 isn't more secure than IE8, 7, etc?

    Zuckerberg Is A Bad Role Model For Aspiring Tech Execs

    Aren't most of the billionaires today in the tech sector not college educated? Gates, Jobs, I think Ballmer and maybe Wozniak as well (though I'm not sure about Wozniak).

    Intel Fighting $1.3B EU Antitrust Fine

    Wait, so then what organization was it that fined Intel 1 billion dollars and it went directly to AMD? I thought it was the EU?

    Upgrade to Windows 8 Pro for $39.99

    It's not pre-order DLC, they include it because you're upgrading from a Windows 7 version that already has it included. So when you upgrade to Windows 8, it's included for free because you already paid for it in Windows 7.

    This upgrade does include the Media pack for free. RTFA. :rolleyes:

    Upgrade to Windows 8 Pro for $39.99

    Sold. I was on the fence about whether I wanted to spend the money to upgrade (because Storage Pool looks fantastic for what I need) but for just 40 dollars? Fucking sold, man.

    Microsoft Surface Prices Revealed?

    800 dollars for Pro is a damn good price given its hardware and the software capabilities. I would have no qualms shoveling out even more for the 128GB of storage.

    Adobe Patches Flash Bugs, Ships Plug-In for Firefox

    If you check the processes, the new Sandboxed Flash no longer runs in the Plugincontainer.exe. Not that I've noticed anyways. I only found that out because I already had the plugincontainer.exe added to my program list in EMET but when I checked my running processes when watching a video on...

    Too Much Video Game Violence At E3

    Rock Paper Shotgun disagress, and I consider their opinion to actually be worth a damn when it comes to videogame commentary as opposed to someone from *snicker* CNet.

    6.5M Encrypted LinkedIn Passwords Leaked Online

    Glad I shut-down my LinkedIn account last month. Though I'm curious how often their information gets purged. My password could still very well be in there if they hadn't erased it from their records. No matter though. It's why I use LastPass. Some completely random amount of letters, numbers...

    Iran To Sue Google Over Dropping Persian Gulf Name

    Come on man, as much as dgz is a complete fucking idiot, have you never heard of Alan Turing or Tim Berners Lee? Saying one country is responsible for the computer or the internet is utterly absurd. Especially since the internet we know today came about through development by the U.S. Military...

    Iran To Sue Google Over Dropping Persian Gulf Name

    I'm sure Google really cares about Iran - a country whose already professed for the desire to produce their own completely censored and internal internet. What are they going to do anyways? Take them to court in Iran?

    Chrome Now Syncs Tabs Across Devices

    Well Firefox already allows you to do that across devices. If you're referring to simply across any and all browsers - I'm pretty sure you can do that with Xmarks. I can't 100% remember if that add-on syncs history as well as bookmarks though.

    Help A Fellow [H] Reader Kickstarter His Game

    I'd love to support but I blew all of my "investing" funds on Wasteland 2. That sly devil Fargo got 150 bucks out of me for that game. Good luck on the funding though! Looks interesting.

    How Much Are You Worth To Facebook?

    17 dollars evidently. They have my name, and that's really about it. I have an entire list of add-ons and Filter Subscriptions that I use to filter out stuff like Facebook buttons, Google Analytics, etc. Priv3 is a good one. And so is the Antisocial Filter List.

    Microsoft and Barnes & Noble Form Strategic Partnership

    I love my Nook Color as a reading device and I always hated the fact there was no app available for my Windows Phone - more than likely due to the lawsuit between the two companies. Quite excited to see what will come of this. I have a feeling the Nook ecosystem will be integrated into Windows...

    Things To Expect Shopping At A Microsoft Store

    I think the only one that was even remotely funny was the one quoted by Steve. I've got no problem "laughing at myself" so to speak in this context. It just wasn't very funny. It very much sounds like some troll post from an Apple user you're likely to find on any of the internet's millions...
