    Microsoft Urges Users to Use Weak Passwords

    Considering Microsoft artificially limits you to 16 characters on Hotmail/Outlook (and who knows what other of their services) this doesn't surprise me. There reasoning behind that was even shadier if you do a Google search on the topic. For a company of their size I'd expect them to be all...

    Computex 2014: 7 Reasons to Be Excited About Asia’s CES

    This. Only Asia has the balls to say screw your sexual objectification guilt.

    TrueCrypt Encryption Software Shut Down, May Be Compromised

    I wouldn't go as far as recommending people stop using TrueCrypt. If you've been using a version prior to this 7.2 release then you should be good. Given 7.1a is already two years old and being looked into by researchers, any nefarious things that old will be discovered. However, going...

    Report: Game Developer Harassment On The Rise?

    @back_by_demand So your solution is intentionally locking people up with hardened criminals and hoping they get raped? Your a sick person. What's even sicker is that our prison system has been so decayed that we just go along with how vile they've become. At least we have the decency to put...

    Why Female ‘Call of Duty’ Players Aren’t a Tech Breakthrough

    Many games, especially FPS titles, in recent years have went through extraordinary lengths to appease women gamers by adding unnecessary female characters that never fit the storyline. This is just another example. I'm sure people will just chalk this up to chauvinism, sexism, or being...

    Valve Office Tour Snapshot Reveals Mention of Left 4 Dead 3

    More curious to see what Source2 has to offer than L4D3. HL3 should be the main focus at this point, its been on the back burner the longest. Not to mention the Source Engine is definitely showing its age these days.

    Netflix in Negotiations for Season 5 of Arrested Development

    I'd rather have them finish the talks and bring Jericho back instead of a 5th Season of Arrested Development. Honestly, they could have done much better with the show than they did. Didn't meet the hype or the humor of the first 3 seasons at all.

    Epic VP: PS4 is Like a Perfect Gaming PC

    So why is Epic limiting themselves to just the X-Box with Gears of War? Honestly, it's the only reason I bought the 360 because I was forced into it by exclusive titles. Even that XBL Gold fee can hardly be justified. Break Microsoft's stranglehold and release hundreds of thousands from...

    It's a rumor, defies the truth it its definition.

    FCC Wants Gigabit Internet Communities Nationwide by 2015

    Yeah, we've heard this before. Considering the FCC is nothing more than the ISP/Cable/Tele Co's lobby group, I don't think anyone believes these clowns.

    Google Ranked Number One Place to Work (Again)

    makafriI think valve should be a great place to work.... It's been recognized as the best gaming company to work for. Maybe it's just too small of a company to make the list.

    Windows 8 Increased Its Market Share in December

    Yeah, well of course it increased its market share. Kind of like the pot calling the kettle black. Vista was kind of Microsoft's low point and at its peak it was 16-18% and considered a failure. We have at least a year or two before we can fully say whether or not it's a success or failure.
