Not really true for Raspberry Pi 2. I'm running it with Kodi@OpenELEC next to my TV, it's set-up to connect to NFS via WiFi served by one of the SOHO Mikrotik routers. On the other end Synology DS215j NAS is cabled in via 1Gbit. No hiccup on 1080p/720p whatsoever despite WiFi choker, but haven't tried anything bitrate-crazy yet.
Except Gran Turismo 6 (with completely rebuilt graphics and physics) is coming out this year. Metal Gear Solid V & Ground Zeroes are currently in development for the PS3, among other systems. Also we will still be getting multi-platform stuff for some time (Battlefield 4).
Currently Polish government is so pro-USA that our Minister of Foreign Affairs preemptively declined asylum for Snowden using his Twitter [1][2]. It's funny, because instead of building better relations with our neighbors "we" are constantly trying to please the US. This trend continues despite being given nothing but empty promises for years. So yeah, our gov likes to think and say (loudly) that those relations are pretty good -- hard to say if it's because they want to keep their face or for whatever reason. I think that US also likes this arrangement a lot, because free service can't be bad [3].
While I read a book I take notice of headers providing logical partitioning, page headings & numbers for orientation. On paper text may also be set with bolder font, or with emphasis added. It helps, when done properly. Same with syntax highlighter. I don't want to re-read entire screen of code every time I need to make a change in this general area. I want to have mental model "indexed" upon the looks of code. This can of course be done on "plain" code, but it's slower and I can only hold my attention for so long each day -- why waste it, especially if I need to specifically disable some features of my software? And lastly -- code is not a book. I will read a book once, maybe twice if I really like it (my max being 8 repeats), but there is never time to read it again. While code? I will be read it for the rest of my life, as far as I can tell... I will not enjoy reading everything for a 1000th time, that much I know.
Yegge has a bone to pick with Clojure. It's about his feeling towards the community, the language and the direction Rich Hickey is taking it [1]. It's funny, reminds me of "In which Everyone had better shape up" [2].
(For physical media I still just use a PS3.)
