I find this really interesting, but I don't have the knowledge around the tech to fully judge whether the statement is hyperbole or not. Is anyone able to ELI5 how one goes about cracking a game like this?

> Courts frown on rules lawyers Isn't that the whole business of lawyers - interpreting the laws as they are written, not their intention?

Liverpool Street actually - I suppose my initial comment was inaccurate/exaggerated now I think about it. Either way, those buildings are my favourite part of the journey, as far as scenery.

Definitely - I travel in to London from the east, and I love seeing the cluster at Canary Wharf, and then the cluster that this article focuses on, with my train travelling underneath it. If anything, I wish the regulations were a bit more

I have similar feelings about the Grauniad. It's Fox News, albeit much better written and more journalistic, for the opposite side of the political spectrum. I'll still read their food sections though, at least while they have Jay

This stuff always depresses me when I hear about it - I definitely feel we need stronger laws to aid people in reviving abandonware. I'd love to know more about Warner's reasoning for not going forward with a deal - it's ess

I bought one a couple of days ago and got caught out by this. Are they assuming that most people who buy a 3DS have previously owned a DS console, so don't need a charger? I can't think of any other electronic device that doesn&#x

Yeah - whenever I see things like this, I make the assumption that they are deliberately trying to deceive - there's no way you can accidentally design a graph like that

Likely not - they'll either have their heads in the sand pretending they don't exist, or claim that they invented 3D printers themselves, and give it a faux-latin name so they can trademark it...

I agree - I still can't understand these pedantics about the name when everyone knows who you mean. "What's in a name?..."

UK here - are prosecutors really the only people who run for governor? If not, then is there a bias in the voting populace that means they are more likely to become governors?

From where I see it, there's a whole range of the spectrum in the population - from the die hard monarchists and republicans, with the the majority of people being fairly apathetic either way. I feel that, given not much power lies wit

Same here - I can see how it might be cheaper than running a non-electric moped, and thus increase his weekly takings. Maybe other delivery drivers are using cars and thus get stuck in traffic more? Not sure how feasible/likely that is
