Edge Magazine is running a piece by Brad Wardell, CEO of game developer Stardock, in which he presents a "Gamer's Bill of Rights." Stardock teamed up with Gas Powered Games to develop a list of ideals they think all game publishers should follow. Some are rather basic operational guidelines (not requiring a disc to play, minimum requirements that make sense), and some are aimed at repairing the damaged relationship between game companies and customers ("Gamers ...

How unstoppable was the marketing machine behind The Dark Knight? Enough for Heath Ledger's death and Christian Bale's predilection for family communication with fists to be easily cast off, apparently, leading to a movie whose success surprised even its studio head. The Hollywood Reporter looked into the efforts required to teach America to ask "Why so serious?" Unlike Batman Begins, which offered very few marketing tie-ins, The Dark Knight started life as a merchandising bonanza, ...

If you hear a familiar metallic shriek of "Exterminate! Exterminate!" echoing around Bristol, it may not mean that the cruel Daleks have invaded England. Leonard, an African Grey parrot, had just perfected his spot-on Dalek impression, when he mysteriously went missing. (Coincidence? Or Davros experimenting on a new source of Dalek mutants?) Leonard, who lives in an antique shop, also does the theme from Mission Impossible, "YMCA," and a couple of Village People songs. Here's ...

Firefox only: Mozilla Labs unveils the first prototype of a natural language web service connector called Ubiquity, a Firefox extension that adds a command panel to any web page. Ubiquity will look familiar to Quicksilver, Launchy, or Enso users: you invoke Ubiquity with a key combination and the text field drops down command suggestions as you type. Ubiquity's built-in command set consists of "user-centric mashups" that let you perform tasks using various web services in ...

P4P is touted as the new and improved P2P. The technology has the potential to lower bandwidth costs for ISPs and speed up downloads for P4P enabled filesharing clients. There is a dark site to this new technology though. The strong anti-piracy connections are fuel for conspiracy theorists, and Net Neutrality might be at stake. Earlier this week, researchers from Yale University and The University of Washington presented the latest findings from their P4P research. ...

m8 said:
quote "By looking at the latest P4P research report, we come to the conclusion that P4P might slow down the downloads of people who use non-P4P clients, or those who are on an ISP that doesn’t support P4P. This is because P4P users will be more likely to share with local peers, while regular P2P users share with everyone (note that both can be in the same swarm). This goes against Net Neutrality principles, although this depends on how one defines Net Neutrality."

Esiste invece una scorciatoia per poter richiamare il prompt dei comandi che permetterà poi di eseguire il programma di cui abbiamo bisogno, o di modificare al volo qualche libreria o cartella, richiamare il Task Manager o avviare/stoppare dei ...

Fox released a bunch of new clips from Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, including a better look at the craziest car stunt ever. (The one involving Summer Glau, not the other one.) Shirley Manson seems suitably psychotic and creepy, and I like the banter between Derek Reese and Charley Dixon. (The only quibble: John Connor too pouty.) In general, I'm excited for season two. Click through for more videos. Here's an interview with Summer Glau ...

Todd Hollenshead, CEO of id Software (think Doom and Quake), accuses PC hardware manufacturers of implicitly supporting piracy of all kinds because they see it as a "hidden benefit" when you buy a PC. This came up in an interview with Gamesindustry.biz, and was part of a larger point aimed at answering the question of why PC manufacturers aren't doing more to stop piracy with hardware measures. When asked if these companies are secretly happy ...

The Pirate Bay has decided to fight the decision of an Italian judge after it ordered ISPs to block access to the popular tracker. The blocks didn’t prove particularly effective as traffic from Italy only increased but nevertheless, The Pirate Bay is determined to reverse the decision. Yesterday, The Pirate Bay filed an appeal against the decree that forced Italian ISPs to block the BitTorrent tracker. Pirate Bay’s lawyers Giovanni Battista Gallus and Francesco Micozzi ...
