Whatever you think of the console itself, that's an impressive amount of fundraising. I think Ouya has shown one thing for sure and that's making your Kickstarter a pre-order of sorts definitely encourages people to donate in larger sums. O

At least with some of those countries, if you're gonna be forced to pay taxes anyway, you might as well get more for your money like healthcare...

It was a popular site to download illegal stuff, but that's not the real issue with this case. The debate is whether or not they complied with DMCA takedown laws when they were alerted to copyrighted content and also if they personally uplo

I bought an Asus Zenbook. It works pretty well, I installed Ubuntu on it using these instructions https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AsusZenbook There were some manual configurations, as you can see, but for the most part everything works

The only other thing you need to do, other than add the circle to your profile, is occasionally go back to the circle and add it again (to the same circle in your profile) to get the newest list of people. Unfortunately, adding a shared cir

I completely agree with the OP, at first I thought I would miss having a physical book in my hands, but to be honest I don't really miss it at all. There are so many advantages to eBook reading such as light weight (compared to some hard co

Also, unless people are on top of it, it takes more than 5 days usually to transfer a domain. I'd imagine most people who transferred will be waiting through that window of time rather than digging for the hidden confirm quickly option.

I doubt anyone who has ever had to deal with one of the big 3 in Canada (Rogers, Telus, or Bell) would argue against this point. Canadians really need to push for an open system that allows foreign competition to enter the marketplace. Unti

Yeah, that was pretty poor future planning on facebook's part, they should have made user pages have an extra path variable like facebook.com/u/timeline

Interesting, the article doesn't really mention Google's motivation for the bid, but I'm guessing it would just be to lock down the rights to some of the media associated with Hulu? If exclusivity was part of the deal, maybe their intention

I wonder if that is a direct result of a more profit driven system in the west? There's no profit in good exercise and diet...

Yeah, of course you're right but that is what Ticketmaster is counting on. They are kind of like the TSA in a way. They are hoping that you want what they are offering so badly you won't mind being taken advantage of to get it. It's not goi

No big surprise with that. When you have a dominating monopoly on most of the major venues in America, you probably don't lose any sleep at night worry about user experience. The only way that is ever going to change is if people vote with

Yeah, Australia is actually where the friend of mine I mentioned is at. It's good to hear some of the times are improving, maybe the companies are finally catching on that the delays just drive people to download... I think traditionally, t

It makes sense to me. I have a friend of mine that doesn't live in the US, and she says some movies and tv shows are 6 months to a year late coming to her country, even though they are advertised and hyped up all over the internet. Before t

What they always seem to miss on these pay what you want sites is a display of the average price people are paying. For example, I don't remember In Rainbows ever listing what the average price people were paying was. If they showed a price

Yeah, the main issue here is that a few big telcos and cable providers own the majority of the infrastructure for broadband in Canada. As a result, it was mandated that they had to have "wholesale" rates available to any smaller competitors

Yeah true, but action is set to happen in parliament tomorrow, so if they are just lying it will be evident very soon.

You can still do that now. You just need to make groups of your different friend groups (family, real life friends, high school friends, work friends, etc) and share what you want with those groups only, depending on what it is.

The opposition is that we shouldn't be treating people like they are incapable of making reasonable decisions. You say "If it won't accomplish anything then I don't really see what the objection is." but that's like saying if you have nothi

Yeah, but who gets to decide what the cutoff for "porn" is? Any movie with a naked person in it? What if it's just a bare ass? What if it's a painting or sculpture? Just like television ratings don't stop kids from watching violent tv, movi

The problem is these screener DVDs are available much sooner than traditional DVD releases since they usually go out to critics and/or people judging for awards. Especially the last 3-4 years, many of the big Oscar award contenders have bee

Yeah, Feast is really good, it only suffers from the fact that it feels like you're only getting half the story. There are a few points where they allude to events I assume will be in Dragons, but you don't get to read them in Feast. Summar

Yeah, I mean no disrespect for those companies that can literally take on hundreds of contracts a day at bargain basement prices, but I definitely think there is a market out there for companies who want a little extra attention to detail o
