Actually, what it seems like is that these are the only people they've blocked. :laugh:

I'm using only an original HL cd-key and I'm not able to get a hold of the file so this would be false. But that would be vary humerous if it were the case.

Lmao, i love what Gabe said about this, the added zing at CatWoman.

People can do it, but it's kind of a goofy thing to do since pre-loading doesn't give you the authentication necessary to play. It's like having a copy of an encrypted file - you have it but you can't do anything with it without the right keys to decrypt it.

If people want to do it, they can, but it's no more exciting than going to someone's Steam installation and copying a cache file. And there are lots of other useless blobs of binary data people can download (e.g. the Catwoman trailer) that don't take away bandwidth from our content servers.

Cyber-Caf?'s go live tomorrow.

    • Report: iPhone Air isn't dead, and a second-generation model is planned for 2027

      By sphbecker · Posted

      I'd say the first one failed to be as popular as Apple anticipated, but the easy adjustment here is to make fewer of them next time around. It would only be a "flop" if it isn't possible for Apple to recover the design and factory tooling costs given the number of units sold, which I doubt would be the case. It isn't like no one bought them; it just failed to become the new hot phone of the year.
    • Waymo recalls self-driving software after cars enter closed freeway work zones

      By sphbecker · Posted

      You're right that it does not follow the plain meaning of the word, but in this context, it is a legal term defined in 49 U.S.C. Kind of how "wire fraud" laws apply even if a physical wire was not used. Given that it is codified in law, and it isn't just automotive journalists that don't understand evolving technology, I highly doubt congress would change a well understood term just because technology makes the term slightly less actuate.

      This is exactly why I keep saying we are not ready for human free self-driving. These little "bugs" are may seem like random one-offs. There was also the Waymo that drove between police with drawn weapons and the suspect they were pointing them at. From a software perspective it is easy to understand how those extremely rare situations may not have been programed for, but that is the point. If AI needs to be told to watch out for every possible contingency, then it can never be successful. There will always be the possibility of a first encounter that the AI needs to understand to avoid.
