Because touch screens are cheap and put the onus of design onto the programmers of apps.

Stark made the suit with no help. He doesn't need a specific suit because he has the skill to invent whatever he may need.

At this point, Peter can't make himself a suit like that, so if he is nothing without it, he can't respect the power it brings. But he isn't nothing without it, which is what Stark is trying to teach him: not to rely on power of others.

New tab tools.

You can even do a trick to make it your home tab

The ones that pay are the ones running the ads. If the content creators have to pay, they will be the ones doing ads. This is how AV content has worked since the dawn of broadcast radio.

So, just like FFXIV?

You are conflating copyright and patents. Copyright is protection for the expression of an idea, like the art design. This is a patent issue, which is a protection of how something works.

If somehow I patent a vague mechanic like "a method of selecting weapons with the directions of an analogue stick or mouse, presented as an 8 direction on screen circle." Then I could sue Red Dead Redemption and Batman Arkham, despite there being no copyright infringement with whatever game I made with that feature.

The production values are good, and it's generally entertaining, but I just can't cope with the gaps in logic and the seemingly deliberate attempts to make it conflict with the Alien films.

I'd rather re-watch the Red Letter Media review than the film itself.

We must be thinking of different films...

 

I'm looking for things like Amazing Race (all the spin-off countries), Survivor, Gladiators, Ninja Warrior, etc.

If I dip my toe into the Usenet thing, will I find this sort of stuff? Do I have to look in a certain spot? By this I mean do different servers tend to store different styles of catalogues, or do they network like a P2P system?

Apologies if I'm not making sense, I don't really know the correct jargon.
