Samsung has just become like Apple.
They have enough of the market and are a household name, so they don't need to bother with innovation, since people will see the logo, recognize the brand, and buy it..
"Oh cool, Apple have released the iPhone 5S! It must be so much better than my iPhone 5, better buy it!"
"Oh cool, Samsung have release the Galaxy S5, it must be so much better than my S4, better buy it!"
 
Same thing.

Then in that case me and you don't have a problem. You could be a pastafarian for all I care, the points remain the same. As long as you do not actively seek to prevent others from living their lives a certain way then you are being perfectly reasonable. I don't want to see a world where any marriages, hetero or homosexual, are forced. As long as you allow individuals the choice to get married or to perform a marriage ceremony (whether they share your religion or not) then that's the way forward.  

Yup. And in your private life these views are 100% your business. But the problem is your views do not just concern yourself; they dictate how others should live their life and what rights they are entitled too. And this is done without any evidence apart from your Christian faith which is in no way universal. 
 
Bottom line: anyone can think or believe anything they like. But you're not allowed to dictate how others live their life or what privileges they're entitled too based upon those beliefs, no matter how sincerely they are held. 

Why does it matter what other people who share the same faith as you believe in?
I find that interesting that open opinion is fine unless it's someone who shares the same religion as you. that's just hypocritical I suppose.

The problem with the drivers license comparison is that one of them gives you the ability to control a potentially lethal hunk of metal whereas the other does no harm to anyone. It makes sense that the former should be regulated because some people are just not fit to be drive and allowing them to do so would potentially endanger others, But the latter (believe it or not but gays having equal rights or getting married will not cause earthquakes and storms to occur) does not.  The fact that something as harmless as marriage and again the the benefits it brings are being denied to people simply because of the "we don't like your minority so you don't get to be treated equally" mentality that has been floating around is just flat out wrong from the equality and moral perspective that the US claims to have. Gays are the same as everyone else, you don't deny blacks, jews or anyone else marriage. So what makes gays so different?  

How would you feel if someone took away your ability to marry the one you love and all the benefits that brings? I imagine you would be annoyed, or at last most people would. Its also safe to assume that you would want that ability back. My point is that sometimes its not about rights in the legal sense (even though marriage is a right) and more about whats best and fair for the people. Denying marriage just because you don't like the minority they belong to is just flat out wrong, especially seeing as marriage is concept that applies to both religious and non religious people. 

I see a lot of people saying that he should not have been forced to leave over his homophobic views, but what if he was anti black or anti Muslim would you still be saying the same? What if it was the minority you belong to that he had supported a campaign against, would you still support him? Most likely not. Stuff like this happens all the time. Someone says something racist and suddenly they are a monster who has no place in society, yet someone says something homophobic and we get reactions like the ones in this thread. Is there really any difference between the two though? After all they both come down to belittling a group because of something they have no control over. Either way at the day we are all equal and in my opinion the people who try to say otherwise are the ones who should be forced to step down from their positions and be forced to reconsider their viewpoint. I'm glad that this has happened, it shows that progress is being made.   

Holy shit this thread is full of stupid.
 
The right to free speech protects you from criminal prosecution for expressing your views, it does not mean that if you are giving a company a bad image with what you believe they can't force you out. Your job is not protected by your opinions,
 
Also to those of you saying people who disagree with his views are close minded, as a person who supports equal rights I have no obligation to condone the beliefs of those who try to keep others from enjoying the same rights they do. Equality does not mean tolerance of intolerance, it never has and it never will. 

Because his views would coincide with the large majority of Americans.
unpopular opinions drive people away.
I know I am a little bit biased on this subject but like you said earlier. It's 2014...why do people still hold these views?
If there were factual evidence (which I have found none) in opposition to gay marriage then that would be a different story, but their simply isn't.
I know opinions are opinions but I prefer ones that are based on fact over ones that are based on nonsense.
Non issue?
How is supporting a bill that went against equality a non issue?

Well this weeks wan show is going to be intresting, slick rantage instead of linus rantage

Just because you said it,

I trust Valve and gaben

I did get it from the source in the OP, but DICE did respond:

ITS IN BETA GUYS. this isnt the final version, stop raging, improvements are likely to happen.

It's a rendering bug. Fixing it won't change performance, and they already started doing it.
