Tradewest co-founder passes away at 75 {Joystiq}
Nov 15th 2009 8:23PM I can see the connection that's trying to be made.
Battletoads was localized by Tradewest. Battletoads is hard as hell. New Super Mario Bros. has the option of playing for you, thus being easy. Mr. Cook would turn over in his grave because his game was hard and now games are easy.

Microsoft researchers build muscle-computer interface, play air Guitar Hero {Engadget}
Oct 28th 2009 12:38AM "...Microsoft is huge, bloated, and money hungry."
If they were money hungry, why would they make something that "...will never get real use"? Ever think that this can be used to improve human interfacing with computers? Microsoft has enough money that they can RnD all they want, and will still have enough for side-projects like this one.

Seeing as how we are just starting to get "green" cars, I don't think a "green" plane will be arriving anytime soon. This plane is an improvement (environmentally) over previous planes, so at least they are heading in the right direction.
NVIDIA Tegra to power next-gen Nintendo DS? {Engadget}
Oct 13th 2009 8:35PM In your last paragraph you begin to list your wants in the next DS, but you describe a PMP and a phone. At the end of the day, Nintendo is going to make a portable gaming device, not a PMP or a phone. They are not looking to compete with the iPod or iPhonee, and sales numbers have shown that they can be successful while coexisting, but to compete with the other portable gaming devices. Trust me, most gamers don't think of iPods as gaming platforms, no matter how hard Steve Jobs tries to convince them otherwise.
The next-gen DS will compete against the next-gen PSP and possibly a portable device from Microsoft. iPods have their place, and it isn't next to the "real" gaming devices.

Your logic works when a word changes spelling or pronunciation over time, but it does not allow for words to be substituted on a whim. "All intents and purposes" cannot be simply changed to "All intensive purposes". It loses all meaning in the translation. Intensive =/= Intents and. If you had any clue about how the English language works, then you would know that homonyms cannot replace one another and still keep the original meaning.
You are, in effect, trying to justify the misuse of "There/Their/They're". They sound the same, but change the meaning of the sentence when interchanged. It doesn't matter how "living" the English language is, it does not change the fact that you cannot make up your own rules whenever you want. It needs to be a society-wide change over time, and that simply hasn't happened in this case.

You just described the DSi.
