The funny thing is sure there's 7 billion people on earth.
yet only 3 to 4% of the surface has a human population living on it.
It's not a meteorite, it's called an earth quake.
They are caused by the earth's plate banging into each other.
The human population can do nothing about it.
It wasn't in an unpopulated area it's probably effected over a million+ people.
I highly doubt an earth quake would effect any of those cities because they aren't on the edge of a plate, LA wouldn't be damaged it'd be wiped out as it's...
It has nothing to do with climate change, in fact nothing can be done about it, because it's the earth crust moving regardless of what happening on the surface or the air.
It's just nature at work.
That won't happen for a number of years now.
The pacific plate is banging into the Australian plate = earth quakes in Australia/New Zealand/Japan and other rim countries.
after a few years the paific plate will move back toward the US.
@darkpower
And that's why you fail at making your point about hacking.
Because your happy to say it's not illegal yet probably complain if your bank account got hacked and all the money taken out.
Hacking in general is against the law because it causes far more problems than saying this is ok and that's not.
What happens if someone releases homebrew for the PS3 that grabs the PSN account details and sends them out...
Sony's T&Cs allow them to add or remove a "feature"
Yet OtherOS wasn't an advertised feature bar in japan, that's why none of the US and Euro class actions will win, it has to be advertised as a core feature to the product like it can't work properly without it.
Hackers and people can say what they like but that's the truth about the OtherOS advertising try and find an US PS3 TV or poster etc AD with OtherOS in it and you won...
@darkpower
So hacking a bank is perfectly legal?
Yeah didn't think so.
Hacking products is still illegal as it could have backdoors in that product that hand out your details.
no one really knows what is in those CFW released, same deal with the homebrew released no one really knows if that program releases your personal data or not.
The phlishing groups and spammers or virus groups haven't started t...
The problem isn't the money or the amount.
It what and how the person has broken the law.
If this hacker has to prove he didn't hack the PS3 then he's screwed regardless of how many lawyers or how much money he has.
as he can't prove he hasn't hacked it what with him self blogging that he's hacked it and then telling everyone he's going to keep on hacking.
After all this hacker is that Graf_Choko d...
He's the Charlie Sheen of game designers.
He'll be in the lime light with gears of war then release something that gets lime light but really is utter shit and people don't bother with it and will forget about him ever existing.
Bit like Valve on the PS3.
@AntoineDcoolette
Yep, because his hacks have only allowed people to pirate games and stuff, the whole linux made up story never happened did it.
Do you see failoverflow or geohot running linux on their PS3 at last no it's some video of CFW or saying how they don't pirate themselves yet run CFW with a back up manager on the PS3.
Modding a car isn't perfectly fine by the law, have too much noise and you can have it impounded, go ...
@death2494
Blame the hackers and people who keep hacking/pirating games on the PS3.
Sony has to retain it's income stream otherwise there's no point in keeping the PS platform.
@Maddens Raiders
Sure it is security related, using cloud services removes the data from your PS3 so you can't actually touch it in anyway.
Soon games will become cloud based as well where some data will only be on the cloud like the game EXE etc and therefore can't be pirated unless you have paid for access to the EXE.
Everyone will be required to have an net connection alas this won't faze Sony as there's around 500+ millio...
@agent VX
You can't do anything you like with the hardware, you buy a license to give you the privilege of using said hardware.
That license doesn't allow you to hack the hardware.
As you haven't paid for any of the R&D costs plus all the use of patents you'd also need to buy licenses for so you can do stuff with that hardware.
Nothing is free, it all costs some money and the poor people are the ones who c...
"I’m like, I’ll take that because that means there’s a certain amount of being relevant as opposed to nobody ever talking about you, ever."
I'm like um, wha! because I'm so like don't get ya!
What the fuck is that sentence for fuck sake.
How does anyone quote a line like that, it doesn't even make any sense and it's got nothing about gears 3.
freedom of speech is a US law not a world law.
The Failoverflow aren't in the US so they can be tracked and be screwed over.
Yet it's more about getting people to start lynching geohot, it could also be Apple wanting in on the action too.
Don't forget Apple can screw geohot just as much as he just released a hack for the iphone 4.1 or 4.2 iOS in the last few days.
Not very smart for this geohot guy.
Some people here think it's to ban people's PSN accounts.
It won't be for that, it'd be done to reduce the support for geohot overall as Sony can then trace back to people's IP addresses via PSN accounts and other ways like credit cards that have been added to PSN accounts.
So if you grabbed at any of his stuff and get sued they'll turn around and blame goehot for Sony suing them because if he hadn't released this info they wouldn&...
How the heck is the Kinect, sexy?
It's the same size as a small dog.
I find it odd that LG are suing Sony on Blu-Ray when Sony created the Blu-Ray standard.
They currently run the Blu-ray Group.
I reckon this is a CD drive door not paid for type patent that hasn't been paid for.
Who says it increases hardware sales?
That's like saying an illegally modded car which can't be rego'd on the road will suddenly sell way more.
The hurt comes from an investor deciding if it's worth while to invest in a PS3 game or not.
Will it sell?
Will it recover the production costs?
Will it make a profit?
If 1 of the above doesn't work out money wise on paper then that project gets she...
Programming for the 360 isn't hard because it's windows with everything removed bar directx so programming is well setup for it.
On the PS3 you need to make everything all the GFX drivers handlers etc.
It's not that the PS3 is hard to dev for it just a case of some people not wanting to make all their own drivers and handlers and other back ground stuff.
Sony have a database with code you can grab stuff from but still you would ne...
