Not true... people have made a lot of engines and applications that were constructed from knowledge they gained from looking at the source code of, say, the Quake 1 engine or the Quake 3 compiling tools. They couldn't use the source directly, but they could steal the concepts in the source...

Actually, neither have I... I'm just guessing. :E (really)

Yeah, but if you follow (ironically) standard techniques of making a good password (mix of caps and lowercase letters, numbers and special characters, without any dictionary words) it makes it a lot easier to notice a password. Especially if the person is paranoid and doesn't save the password...

Yeah. All the time they took into making sure that no one would know about things they didn't want them, too. Someone was joking in another thread about the fact that at least one of us in the HL2 community has to be a professional hitman, and they should "help" Valve. The funny thing is that...

Ahahaha. Best... post... ever.

It's not so much that I go home and use Windows because of Windows. It's because so much software that is necessary to me functioning as a professional individual is present on the Windows platform only. Also, for all of the people the "Microsoft is gay" comments are stupid: I'm never going...

I think you have to remember how much money they get from licensing this very source code. Let's just take the example of id Software. For the Quake 3 engine they charge a $250,000 guarantee against 5% of the royalties of the retail product. Licenses to just 4 companies gives them a cool...

It's probably going straight into them because you told it to open the downloaded file instead of saving it somewhere. You shouldn't be searching for bink, but search your temporary internet files folder for *.exe... might find em.

I wish they would just give us a damned reason.

Enough of this madness. Time to sleep. Hopefully there will be some confirmation tommorrow so I can continue loving Valve like... uh... macaroni. I'm glad everyone didn't start flaming and we could actually have fun with this. :E Thanks for the funny pictures, gave me much amusement.

Ok, now that's just ridiculous.

Hahaha... probably after. *on a stretcher going out of the doors* Gaaaabee... gaaaabbbee.. relea... release... release da... da...*beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep*
