Except with technologies like Cinavia watermarking now intruding, DRM free rips may not actually be DRM free. That may keep your grandchildren from viewing some of your content.

There are two many big differences to enumerate, but a couple more important ones: Guantanamo: "As of August 2013, 164 detainees remain at Guantanamo" North Korea: "When Shin worked in the garment factory and accidentally dro

Can you cite somewhere the mainstream media actually suggests the citizens of the DPRK are brainwashed monsters? I've never seen anything close to that.

Especially with younger kids, when they are asked a question by someone with authority, there is a reasonable presumption that it can be answered. I'm all for teaching them to challenge that presumption, but I think you'd get a mo

I agree with your points, but the result will probably just be higher rates, not failure. You can see it start to happen already with the early implementation of the ACA. However, that that isn't what I was talking about, and it doesn&

It does look like GMail, but the veneer is fairly thin. It is slow and buggy. And the transition for existing users was poorly thought through. It is Gmail with 90% of the look 75% of the features, and 50% of the polish. I'm a daily us
