Absolutely. After all the support they've given to their citizens acting very stupid in Indonesia, it's disappointing they are so quiet on this.

I was glad you raised the question, as I had the same thought as you at first. That just cutting and pasting some documents is not journalism. I then read a tonne of definitions of the word "journalism" and to me. They pretty much all just

Facebook scared me the other day with payment details. Once you add them, there is no way to remove them. You can only replace them with different details. It's worrying if this becomes the norm.

I too changed the default Windows background. However it was just the default image with an almost transparent eye in the corner. It lasted a few weeks before it was reverted one day.

The offline mode only works well when you are online and you know you will want to use it offline next time. If you're already offline, you're screwed. I remember once having to connect up my phone as a modem just to launch Steam so I could

I had this problem with a website from the Australian Government. I was actually trying to login to update my address, but I didn't know the password. For that though, I was able to visit a store front and update it after providing ID. I gu

but this isn't the password for gmail. This is the password for the password manager account. So you need to know the password manager they are using and the username to match with the password. They have to find this out within the time th

I've only been to the UK once, but I don't remember fries being called "chips" in UK McDonalds. I've always thought of "fries" as those skinny things McDonalds/Hungry Jacks/Burger King sell, while chips are the chunkier version you get at a

Did you have much trouble convincing your friends to move to Path? I think that's the biggest headache for anyone wanting to move away.

I can relate to this. Last week I received 2 rather lengthy and intimate love letters, in my inbox from a lady in half Italian/half English. This was made all the more interesting, by the fact that a month ago I received a series of risqué

Installers are an annoyance when game patches are released. Steam makes game updates seamless. Right now, the benefits of Steam far outweigh the fact that your games can't be exported. I guess time will tell if that will change. It's not li
