What killed Tech Evolution

Ok I understand that if someone wants to sell their work.

They want to be the only person making money on it. And they do not want people to be able to get the software for free. I mean why buy the cow.....

But have you noticed, no one does anything anymore.

Everyone is scared of getting arrested for tweaking files and programs. I mean the past ten years have been amazing in software development. Now it's just down to a trickle. We aren't moving faster and faster every time we check, anymore. Those days are gone. Kids now are scared to mod psp software because those who do and show others, get silenced fast.

i mean the most I learned was when I was wanting to make my purchased items better. Like over clocking, there are no over clocking forums left but one or two . I mean back when everyone was tweaking and modding their Xbox, we where learning so much from each other. We where passing notes and moving faster and faster. People emulated machines. Sony killed that when they created psp addons and called them "Emulators" . If you did any searches on the net for "emulator tips" you would find stupid junk that showed you how to change your back ground on your psp. I mean they did that very well I have to give them props. But my god, if it wasn't for people modding the psp... Sony would have no idea what firmware to add to the stupid battery chugger.

So now you just have to sit around and wait on sony to tell you what's good.

We are getting dumber by the minute. Don't bother asking any kids these days how to play a 360 game on a computer. They flip out and tell you you need a decompresser... blah blah blah.. It's software.

"Encoded" means YOU think it's unbreakable.

Where is the crowd of people who inspired others to get upset with the useless crap bundled in our gadgets?

What happened to everyone? I feel like it's becoming a TiVo/Apple world. Where everyone just sits with their mouth open waiting to be given what ever there is to fill it.. And we like it.

Was it laziness? Did the really tech gen just get old and walk away?

Am I a dinosaur? Did everyone stop caring what it is inside their gadget that rattles when you shake it?

Is the new generation the fat gen?

Ps: I am not saying you should trade other people's work. but share the mods you make to those works.

Take Two makes it clear why they will not go pc version gtaIV

I was watching a youtube video about how some guy stumbled upon gtaIV offer on
take two interactive's website. Here it's fake and I could explain how simple and the 500 ways you can fake it, but hey if you are dumb enough to believe it (after what i have to show you) then hey , you will not understand me.

ok while watching the address to the links he was clicking, and since it was blurry and all i had to go through and click all of the same links to bring me to page that did not exist. it lead me to the lawsuit they received for the last game they put out for pc.
it seems Rockstar and take two will not be participating in the whole (edit my stuff) game anymore.

the page he actually is adressed in his bar

That will take you to a page that has one link in it and it mentions gta.
You might want to read what it says.

class action suite

I protest Gas Prices!

We have oil companies Soaking us up.

We pay out every hole in our body to pay $3.5 a gallon because what ever excuse the oil companies can come up with meanwhile the oil executives claim major profits. they tell us they are hurting and that any changes in the human favor would cause them a loss.. yeah a loss of what ever they where greedily gaining.

Why are we accepting these excuses? why is this something we are just shrugging our shoulders about and saying”what can I do?”

The only choice is to buy out shares and make a profit also. but with the gas prices as they are we could only break closely to even. Anything over $1.85 a gallon is stupid .

The only thing I can think of is the same people who are selling you gasoline at 3.5 a gallon are the same people who sell you tiny bottles of water at $2 a little bottle. It’s your stupid health trends that are killing you. Don’t believe me? next time you buy a bottle of water in a gas station. Your stupid XXX will remember this.

30 dollars gets you 8 gallons of gas… enjoy.!
