Yeah, as I said, it wouldn't be ideal. Valve would pretty much have to change the whole interface to make it more controller friendly.

Agreed. Having said that, I think something like this would work: For clicking and targeting, you have the touch screen. Dota 2 is a 5vs5 player game. Controller can display all your enemies on the touch screen, just as you'd normally

So, according to the last answer, the 3rd announcement will probably be about a gamepad or an input device of sorts. That's a bummer. I know it was very unlikely, but HL3 announcement would have made me so happy. I'm still hopeful

It seems like you're implying that Ministry of Finance's numbers are wrong. In that case, what numbers I should take into account?

I do. I said what I said because I thought your connectivity problems (or lack thereof) were temporary. Maybe I shouldn't have made that assumption, sorry about that.

You get used to it after awhile, believe me. I've been living like that for the past 4 years. There are times that it hits you and you want to change the way you live, but then you forget all about it until you think about it again.

Kind of ironic for someone who works for an internet security firm to say that he's deleting his Google account not because of privacy issues but for other "inconveniences". I get where he's coming from though. That YouT

As much as I'd like to disagree with you, I agree. But in the long term I think the trust can be restored, if majority of people can actually give a shit about these revelations. Mostly because NSA can't do the things they do with

This deal sounds great, but I'll take a pass. There's no point in denying that EA is doing something good, but knowing their way of doing business leads me to believe that they're just doing this to make Origin more popular a

Nope, it's off. Anyway, who cares. The conversation is happening, that's all that matters.

That's strange, I can see it just fine. Edit: Tried it on private mode and I couldn't see it either. No clue as to why.

I haven't yet tried the OS so I can not speak from an experience, but after watching the introduction video, I think it was pretty clear that they took some design ideas from OS X (I'm putting it lightly). Even the wallpaper was t

I see. Obviously it's easier said than done. I didn't use Lavabit because I mostly don't use email, but I'm guessing Lavabit was an easier service to use rather than setting up your own email service. I think @ssimpson h

I'm not a programmer so this might be a stupid question and I apologize in advance but, why not open source the service?

It's not only Firefox though, as I mentioned. I also tried it on Chrome (both on normal and private modes).

Oh, thanks. I think this is a promising project but I'd like to point out a couple of things. I tried to upload 3 different files. 2x PNG file (no more than 1MB in total) and a gif file (~5MB). I was only able to upload one of them (on
