I fully agree. For me this is one of the main advantages of game streaming and why I think is the future. It is a way to prevent cheating and bad actors that does not require me giving kernel access to game developers. Also protects me from

Just ask Google, how much money do ad blockers steal from content creators, lots of people reporting how their sites now produce way less money than they used to.

<300 reviews out of 50+ million downloads. Not sure the big deal, people can just use other launchers and the ads are relevant. Chromecast with GTV has had this for a while and people like it because they are relevant.

Actually this may improve soon as it looks that Google ventures is paying attention to the opportunity of investing in a country with great weather and high-qualified engineers: http://www.techrepublic.com/article/googl

You are assuming that it is more desirable to optimize for CPU than it is to optimize for bandwidth. The significant size difference between byte code and compiled code has to be downloaded hundreds of millions of times too and bandwidth is

Hi Brent, I trust the Office team, and they have been very clear to call this a preview (it shows in the top of the document) so I expect some issues. I obviously can not know if your specific problem is already fixed in the RTM version (th
