but you can easily remove the copyright and url before posting....

Of course, just like you can do a find/replace with the @afr text that Midonnay mentioned earlier.

The most advanced example would randomly replace words with kotaku, or random words from the Lorem Ipsum paragraph.

Recently JB Hi-Fi has decided to Kotaku local distributors and sell a selected range of imported video Kotaku in-store at reduced prices. We spoke to Scott Browning, Marketing Kotaku at JB about the decision, who confirmed that Kotaku Hi-Fi has gone down the Kotaku imports route, and explained some of the Kotaku why.

Or better yet! Paste your articles backwards and use CSS to reverse them: http://designwoop.com/2009/04/reversing-email-with-css/

Or use a combination of all of the above!

Someone post said link. I would like to read that. Didn't WaPo fire their news aggregation people recently? (After they put out things that were wrong, and probably would have got in shit if they were right and was slower)

Only if we count board game meetups.

And how early in July? It may help me make up my mind about which week to come in

I will be there from 2 July to 8 July. Will be completely occupied during the 5th and some other dates. Have to attend a wedding and make sure the tab gets appropriately abused.

Lets keep it that way. Export the dumbshit ideas and keep the good ones such as the invention of WiFi here in Australia

We didn't invent WiFi, the CSIRO just did some epic patent trolling.

Assuredly, some fucken stupid ideas do turn out to be lucrative.

But you must admit this sounds like an amazing dud.

With the popularity of those "make a book/canvas/tarpaulin out of your photos" companies, I don't think these are that far removed from that. There is a huge part of the population that practically document their lives on that site. Plus they would make amazing troll gifts.

“It takes a thousand men to invent a telegraph, or a steam engine, or a phonograph, or a photograph, or a telephone or any other important thing—and the last man gets the credit and we forget the others. He added his little mite — that is all he did. These object lessons should teach us that ninety-nine parts of all things that proceed from the intellect are plagiarisms, pure and simple; and the lesson ought to make us modest. But nothing can do that.” – Mark Twain

they may not have invented the standard persay......but how is it patent trolling when they created a company to bring the idea to fruition which was subsequently purchased by Cisco >_>

its not like they pulled an idea out of their arse and then sat on it waiting for others to commercialise.

It was a byproduct of research into Radioastronomy.

So like, Koreas the new Japan these days? Whats that make Japan?

Cute ^^

But I really dislike it when bands name their song/album the same name as the band. So many awesome title possibilities, why limit yourself?

Hey, I guess we invented a bunch of great things! Somehow the refrigerator makes a lot of sense. Now that I think about it we may have covered this in primary school.

Oh, I thought these were British. Surprised me how good they taste.

Well, they'd sure be memorable if they had an awesome song title!

Made my complaint against Gamewave. Lets see how it goes.


Did anyone see the new Bond trailer?

 

[reptilescorpio]

Seems like a Torchlight night!

it sounds really interesting. I do like the fact that unlike some other places they are clearly indicating imports

Looks like they are just reusing the import sticker they always put on CD's/DVD's/Vinyl from overseas. Still much better than stealth imports like at EB! I'm sure I have seen plenty from Dick Smith in the DS line too.

'im sick of people stealing my shit' with a whole bunch of site names

Which is then free advertising for those sites unfortunately.

If you want to stop people copying it directly, post your article as a jpeg with a watermark. That way they either have to steal it wholesale and type it out, or hotlink it and risk unsavoury images.

These are all very cool ideas.

Lets keep it that way. Export the dumbshit ideas and keep the good ones such as the pushing into a position to get into mainstream of society for WiFi here in Australia

They helped. That is the important thing. Along with all that monies for us of course.

Heh. I knew it would be related to Tesla before I even checked the link. Tesla himself was quite accepting of the situation too, that is how he wanted to do things of course. Aside from the dickish things that happened to him, mind.

Also reminds me of bitching about videogames.

long live the goonbag

Didn't it get put out to pasture? Love me a good goon bag. You haven't lived until you have had a Layback or Spin The Goonbag (on the clothesline).

I am now addicted to watching this Korean variety show called Running Man. It's like the Amazing Race but cheaper and funnier.

Ain't no party like a Torchlight party.

I'm actually going to get past the main menu tonight (got sidetracked optimising my PC somehow).

Also, to prevent copypasta why not just convert the article to an image?

 

[roosters93]

who was it that said no one will care about dan harmon leaving?

yeah boi.

Who said that?

I will laugh my ass off if community does better numbers next season.

I will kill your ass off if it does!

I still watch and enjoy new Simpsons. Bring it, haters.

Is Torchlight 2 coming to 360? I ADORE the XBLA version of the first one.

It's been a weird day at work. Thankfully the healing power of reading and making comics will be my savior.

And Campbell Newman doesn't want to spend state money on a Bee Gees statue...I am not surprised.

Join the club

My parents both worked for Ansett when I was born, so I've been brainwashed from the beginning. Even disregarding that, Qantas management is truly awful.
