I'd imagine it'll include the core SDKs and an option for OEMs to include built-in Kinect support (like Asus is doing).

You can't even use an upgraded version of the browser? IE7 kinda defeats the point of a "secured" network.

Freon is heavily regulated these days. Very hard to get unless you know someone who works with it regularly (like a car mechanic).

You are confusing DRM for the locking down of a product or platform. Apple locks down iOS for the benefit of the user (most of the time), but adds DRM to apps to prevent unauthorized code from being executed on the device and to prevent app

All my drives are already TrueCrypted. I have nothing to hide, but I do not want to be treated like a criminal for doing something as simple as crossing the US border.

Stripe is the best right now. Great user interface, great API, and awesome staff. Give it a try.

If Sony were using my code in their product, I'd be pretty excited and proud to have created something that a huge company would use.

Is this just an unofficial fan-created thing or is MegaUpload actually returning? I didn't see any nasty scripts on the page so it's probably not malicious.

No one is making you use iOS.

Of course you can argue that, but you'd be wrong. Ask anyone on the street what they think of Apple locking down their products and not allowing you to modify them, and you'd get mostly positive responses about Apple. Now ask them about DRM

I never said that Apple was right. There are a lot of things I disagree with in regard to Apple (I hated the first iPhone, I really did). I said that you're comparing two completely different models and range of products. You're also assum

Apple has draconian restrictions on stuff like iOS for the user's sake (and for Apple's partially), and with the huge amount of users they obviously got that right. I'm not entirely sure what Apple's stance on SOPA is (I heard they supporte

The US had jurisdiction since MU rented about 500 (?) servers in Virginia. If all of their servers were outside the US, they couldn't have done much about it.

I became critical when he said issues with the bill "[can] be resolved." No, no they can't. These bills (SOPA and PIPA) are broken and are unfixable. The only way to "fix" them is to scrap them and rewrite them. He also implies that PIPA

The problem I have with Timeline is the awful way that it organizes posts. The two column format is awkward and it makes it hard to search or even casually read posts as you scroll down, because your eyes are darting between the two colum
