    5 Freedoms You'll Lose Without Net Neutrality

    Dark Wallet May Make Bitcoin Even Harder to Trace

    As long as you can lose every bitcoin you just because your flash drive malfunctioned it will never catch on. Besides, it's more worth it to kill the "stores" (Such as silkroad) that accept bitcoin that to stop the users from using Bitcoin itself.

    What is Net Neutrality

    Technically this has already happened in our country (But for totally different reasons) . And I think it is not pretty. Wanna play a specific local online game? Better use this ISP unless you wanna ping @ 300ms. Wanna have a bufferless Youtube? Better use this ISP then. Want good Steam download...

    Chinese Teen Sells Kidney for iPad 2, Laptop

    Sadly, this type of dealings are actually quite normal in Asia....... Most of the countries in Asia are pretty poor. Perhaps in the US, $3,000 isn't that huge, but in Asia, you can already buy a car in that price. And US Pensioners can live lavishly using only their pension in Asia, but it's...

    Sony Stops Making Cassette Walkmans in Japan

    Because every country is not cutting edge..... Seriously though it's for the Radio I guess, some people just prefer a specific device for a specific purpose, like my mom, she refuses to use a cellphone for music, she specifically only uses her cell for calling.

    Microsoft Does Want Core Games, FPS for Kinect

    thegreathuntingdolphinAlthough I don't think the Kinect would be good for FPS (for that matter neither is the Move...and don't get me started on Wii FPS games!), a Time Crisis type game would be pretty sweet where you can dodge bullets, crouch behind cover, etc. A Time Crisis type of game where...

    Assassin's Creed Brotherhood: The CGI Trailer

    When you steal a candy, the candy is gone, and that candy could be paid for by a person cannot pay for it because it's gone. While in a PC game, the game is not gone, just duplicated. There's a minor difference. That's the same reason any piracy loss estimate is total BS everytime. It's so...

    Nintendo Sees Apple as the ''Enemy of the Future''

For example, in our country, a national election is currently happening, and...
