    Hackers Hack Themselves a Fancy New BMW

    Considering anyone who can afford a BMW should be able to afford full coverage for said BMW, there isn't that much to freak out about. If you can't afford to also insure a BMW you bought, you can't afford to even maintain it. Better to just give it to someone who is resourceful enough to start...

    Gay Oreo Inspires Internet Outrage

    Better to non-profits that help victims of abuse and violence. That covers a lot of people including victims of homophobic violence. It makes Kraft look all the better for it and stays out of the political ring.

    Gay Oreo Inspires Internet Outrage

    I have been watching my sugar lately, giving that I ain't getting any younger and my blood pressure can stay where it is. However, I think it is high time I did treat myself. There is one downside to this: the ignorant bigots who actually boycott this will actually be eating healthier than us...

    "Twisted Light" Paves the Way for Ultra-Fast Internet

    Ask any ISP that imposes caps, and they will most likely give you this excuse: 'Our servers and other facilities are limited and unable to handle heavy traffic. Hence we impose caps to help reduce and/or support heavy traffic.' This is pure bullshit. When you consider the technology that is...

    UK Considers Fees For Appealing Accusations of Piracy

    What really bites here is the taxpayer money wasted in the process. The accused has to fork over only 20 pounds once per allegation. Meanwhile, when you consider all the civil labor and supply used in the process, that's probably about 1000 pounds spent per allegation, taking into account all...

    "Twisted Light" Paves the Way for Ultra-Fast Internet

    Guess it is hit or miss wherever you are. I do hear from many in Europe how they enjoy high speed without caps. They must be the lucky ones. Either case, higher speeds won't deter internet caps. It just means you will reach your cap faster. Until I hear a legitimate reason and not just lame...

    Tomb Raider Taps True Blood Actress For Lara

    So are they revealing her now after her work so far? Or is the voice we've been hearing in the trailer and scenes just been a stand-in? I am so confused! True Blood sounds like a show I would be into, if I wasn't already tired of vampires being done to death already. Makes sense, when you...

    Unskippable: White Knight Chronicles II, Part 2

    Color me entertained, this and Part 1 got me chuckling as back in the good ol' days of Unskippable. Guess you guys got out of your melancholy. Keep it up! ..and then get shot in the ass.

    "Twisted Light" Paves the Way for Ultra-Fast Internet

    What good is all this to most in the US? It won't change the minds of those like Comcast and Time Warner who want to rip people off with internet caps. I suppose it is good news for those who don't have to deal with crooked ISP's, but sadly it doesn't give me good feelings.

    EA Thinks Cross-Platform Is The Future

    One should suspect that if Microsoft did allow for mouse and keyboard with the Xbox, then people would outright say it was just a PC, and therefore Microsoft should allow other programs on it. As it is now, everything for the Xbox is proprietary and Microsoft doesn't have to worry about getting...

    Diablo Gets Demolished, Hardcore Style

    Good on this guy. I'd have to question his sanity considering the number of close calls he has dealt with. I'm hoping he is taking a break from the game. Also, kinda surprised a Korean didn't already grab this. Guess their government's efforts to get them away from computers for a while is...

    Enter the Dominatrix Pulls Out of Saints Row: The Third

    There definitely is a risk to a move like this, but I have to think, with all the DLC that's already been done for 3, it is pretty much time to orient all focus to 4. I never looked at it that way. Saints Row is a plausible end to what happens when the supervillains dominate. I think it is...

    EA Thinks Cross-Platform Is The Future

    Except PC isn't mentioned specifically. PC has never been in people's minds when thinking of social networks or mobile devices. I wouldn't get your hopes up of playing Mass Effect 3 multiplayer from your office to your buddy's XBox anytime soon. Addendum: Bear in mind Microsoft has yet to...

    Origin Cheapens IP With Deep-Cutting Sales

    Thanks for the update. Although, even for special/deluxe editions, $50 is way too much for a game as old as BF:BC2 is now. Have to wonder if EA is trying to convince people that Origin is the only digital place to find the game.

    Facebook Reveals Subscription Model

    Sounds to me like an act of desperation when Facebook went downhill after going public. I doubt many are going to be a big fan of this, but I could care less about that criminal site.
