http://definitions.uslegal.com/c/computer-hacking/Computer hacking is broadly defined as intentionally accesses a computer without authorization or exceeds authorized access. Various state and federal laws govern computer hacking.They accessed sony's shit without authorization

its incorrect though. Breaking into a network or computer system is termed cracking. Hacking refers to the process of reverse engineering or modifying a system or software to make it do something outside of its original specification. The former is malicious, the latter is not.

Radical EdIt's only down due to the fact that they've discovered a possible exploit.
It has NOT been hacked and it never has been fucking hacked.
Radical EdNope, some faggots need to watch their mouthes before they go talking about shit they don't understand. =I
The way they FOUND all the information did not involve any sort of brute-force hacking or manipulation of PSN, they found the info by looking at things that WEREN'T hidden.
Dang dude, why do you seem to take such offense to someone saying Sony was hacked.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hacker_%28computer_security%29Your definition is pretty old Loony,In today's society understanding the term "hacker" is complicated because it has many different definitions.Like it said, the term today has many different definitions, you can't really compare it to an archaic and old definition of the word hacker. Meanings to words change over time.

Not old, just the term being misused by the media until the public have come to understand it to mean something other than what it means to members of the IT community. Exactly like what has happened to the term 'bandwidth'.

I think calling people faggots and telling them to shut their mouths was a bit rude, especially as it is debateable and even the meaning of the word itself is debateable.

Also wouldn't calling someone a faggot fall under the rules of no homophobic post ?

Am I allowed to say 'faggot' if it's blindingly obvious I'm being sarcastic, like "I'll fuck your faggot ass with my hetero dick no homo". I have gay friends and they laugh.Actually, don't answer that. I'm just kidding around.

No, he said "faggots". It's not against the rules to call someone inanimate twigs. :3

You've misread. A faggot was measurement of twigs, not the twigs themselves.

It can also refer to just the twigs itself.

I got kicked out of the bookstore today. Apparently I wasn't allowed to move Kate McCann's book into the murder mystery section.

They sure are taking there time getting things back up. From what Ive read on the internet..the offerings that they are giving dont really interest me. I pretty much own all of the games that they will let us " have " once they get up and going. Only one that interests me is Dead Nation..Thought about downloading that one before. Anyone read when they might have it back up?HoustonTX224
