    Blizzard Denies Milking StarCraft II

    You said "boys" as in plural. I believe I cannot discount that possibility. No offense, but the fun of forum posting is the debate. People's opinions are largely incidental.

    World of Goo Experiences 90 Percent Piracy Rate

    It's copyright violation. The theft angle is from a propaganda campaign to associate the activity with a central moral axiom of society.

    Assault on Language, swords free and guns blazing.

    First of all, gravity isn't instant (or quasi-so). Second, gravity is a function of mass, hence you're unlikely to be able to modify it without modifying the mass. This creates several problems A) To measure any practical difference in gravitation you'd need a very delicate (read...
