I remember buying this on a day out with my family when very young. What an excellent game.

The creators of Dungeon Gouger on mobile should be hung, drawn and quartered obviously.

Daniel Matte you are dumb. That is all.

Mandatory Coverage Requirement

Give them all exactly the same requirement. Tell them to sort it between themselves. They will simply set up a system that allows them the most profit. The most profit comes from least overheads and costs (you would have thought).

If they all must serve everyone then they will naturally find the least expensive way of achieving that.

In the beginning...

The Internet was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of Google moved upon the face of the waters.

And Google said, Let there be meaningful results: and there was meaningful results.

And Google saw the results, and that they were good: and Google divided the results from the paid adverts.

And the evening and the morning were the first day. And Google was the internet.

Someone has been playing Banished.

NCTA

Simple solution: Do exactly the opposite of whatever the NCTA want and everyone will benefit.

"you have permanent lower-caste status, and have simply been working hard for other people to get rich."

Ah, smells like the real world.

seems like a reasonable response all round from them.

"Apple sets a high bar."

Oh my. Everyone in the office turned to stare at me after I burst out laughing.

""breaking the law if they attempt to take photos of any GCHQ staff"

Sorry my irony meter just exploded

Important Point

You must realise you have NO AUTOMATIC RIGHT TO BE PAID FOR ANYTHING EVER. If you think you can scam people into giving you money for a pretty picture or a nice tune then gratz, carry on, don't mention what a racket you are running.

But you must, must, MUST realise that it is exactly that: a scam. You must be honest with yourselves. You are con artists. You produce nothing. You cannot eat a picture. You cannot take shelter in a house.

Take a look a the current penchant for survivalist games. You must find Food! Warmth! At no point are you encouraged to develop a system for monetising humming or finger painting.

So please, whinge all you like, but deep down, in the depth of your hearts, please, please, keep close to yourselves that you are worthless scum.

I could not be more happy...

...than to be told that the banks are running reliable, thoroughly specified and tested, rock solid zSeries and iSeries platforms running CICS and COBOL and RPG.

These things WORKED. A lot of effort was put in by well qualified and intelligent people.

Farming things to India to be poorly coded in .net from non-existent designs and then implementing without exhaustive testing DOES NOT WORK.

Just because it doesn't have Cloud written on the side does not mean you should replace it.

"This ruling does not give the all-clear for people or organisations to have content removed from the web simply because they find it inconvenient"

She must realise that this is exactly what it has done?

Perhaps 3D printing will allow designs to be perfected, openly shared and everyone to benefit.

But I doubt it.

Backwards...

These requests are very important.

They are not asked because the Requester believes an asteroid impact is likely.

They are asked because councils pissing money away on nonsense and then hiding it in the accounts is VERY likely.

And the only way to find out is to ask specifically in a FOI request. Otherwise the £14M spent on zombie rodent prevention, with fact finding trips to the Caribbean, will go down as Miscellaneous Pest Control.

They totally deserve each other. Now, which are the bigger set of scum sucking crooks?

You shouldn't call him "Persson" like that. Its not a surname and its rude.

This is bollocks anyway

As it has already been proven in court that pictures of premier league football are NOT copyrightable.

http://www.out-law.com/articles/2012/march1/premier-league-considering-selling-broadcast-rights-on-pan-eu-basis-following-ecj-ruling/

http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-wales-south-west-wales-25968200

more, google it.

Only the Logos are copyrightable. A camera phone recording will not show logos, so the pictures are not copyright.

Premier League is very, very well aware of this. But they'd rather put out these lies and hope people believe them.

These estimates are very low. I would say more like 80%+ are bots/unused/spam accounts.

I have this thing called a PC...

...it plays all of this and more, as well as all the best games. And its upgradable.

"will throw lousy old Java into the abyss"

Can you not phrase your headline in a slightly more accurate way? This is related to buggy ActiveX controls. Its not about Java. Java is the USEFUL thing that this ActiveX control provides, and as it is so USEFUL and EXCELLENT that it is ubiquitous enough for the ActiveX control to be worth attacking. If you make such silly statements then uneducated people like david12 above will start parroting what you are saying.

how is recruiting the guy behind RAC in any way a remotely good thing?

I remember when this software took down the groceries database of a major uk supermarket. decided to write one datatype to wrong column. then RAC propagated this to all nodes. goodbye data. cue whole IT department on phone to customers manually processing orders. fun times.

wow. so you need DR. thanks for that.

i'll let the 1960s know you have caught up with their ideas.

iDiots.

giving kids crapple products is child abuse

so are they dropping CloudFoundry?

Didn't even notice...

..since the woeful eye-bleeding update a few months ago I don't use it anymore.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Have you worked with any Orange devs? They have serious issues finding arse with both hands.

The tone of this piece seems to suggest that this is somehow a good thing

Is there an anti-higgs then?

Yawn. Bayesian classification. Easy peesy lemon squeezy. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bayesian_inference

"distributed implementation of stochastic gradient descent" i.e. its a small cluster of boxes running a bayesian algorithm.

Yes this sucks but its the app writers fault not google, they request ludicrous permissions for their apps.

that's a "sunset" clause, not a "poison pill" clause

scumness.
