What is that even supposed to mean in practice? Given the lack of a reasonable proposal, I think I'll take their words at face value.

This is idiotic . "The industry" are also European citizens. It's about balancing the interests of people who pay their rent and feed their children by selling games, and the interests of people who merely enjoy games. Consu

I love books, but I could never understand self-help nonfiction books. What's the point? Just about any idea which these books may communicate can be better communicated through fiction. There's no life lessons you'll learn r

It would be a big mistake to assume that whoever succeeds Bibi will take a less aggressive stance than he has. Those hoping to replace him are mostly trying to one-up him.

Yes, it would not be unreasonable to say that funding originating from In-Q-Tel has "CIA roots". If someone claimed to have a CIA background solely on the basis that In-Q-Tel funded their mapping software, they'd be a charlat
