We're also "reversing evolution" by letting me wear glasses.
Oh, and giving me antibiotics and antihistamines.
This is civilization. That's what we do.

It's not abandonware until the goddamn copyright has expired. Does it look like 2079 to you?
No? THEN NOTHING LUCASARTS/LUCASFILM GAMES HAS EVER RELEASED IS ABANDONWARE.
Bluetooth impacts their network, because they can no longer sell you their 0.50$/ea photo transfer service, they can't sell you ringtones for 2.99$ each, and you could use headsets without their 20$ markup.
UMD games, they're going to let you rebuy them off their online store.
UMD movies, no one bought those so they can safely ignore that issue.
Answer me this: Why it's a best practice when coding to name the "Total annual cost" variable something like "totalAnnualCost" instead of "HappyZippers"?
I once had to maintain an app where the previous programmer had named an important variable boldLeonidas:
The old ones say we Spartans are descended from Hercules himself. Bold Leonidas gives testament to our bloodline. His roar is long and loud. - Dilios, 300
I'd forgive him that if this was controlling whether some text was bold or not, but I think it was an integer which collected a count of how many entries there were in a table.
an MD5 hash of the PIN number *is* stored on the card (making replay attacks possible, believe it or not).
if MD5 is ever cracked...
game over: anyone can get your PIN number.
Bullshit and chips. Look, there are only 10,000 possible pins, do you know how long that would take to force? Hell, a complete rainbow table is only 156k. Even if salted, do you know how long it takes to hash 10,000 4 digit numbers?
There. Just did it. Took 0.1 seconds on my 800mhz laptop.
Your information does not pass a basic sanity test.
(Plus, it's debit cards which have PINs, not credit cards)
