I installed origin to play Mass Effect 3. I should probably uninstall it now since I'll never play that blue-balling disappointment again.

If you want to play any recent EA games (BF3, DS3, ME3, SimCity, etc), they force you to use Origin. That's pretty much why I haven't bought any EA games for a while.

James Gosling, the creator of Java, received his bachelors in Computer Science from the prestigious University of Calgary.

Seeing as how Java is a complete piece of shit, the above fact is not surprising.

Didn't stop half the world from using it. Coding a website with it was the worst. Also doesn't protect enough seeing my android crashes twice a day.

origin gets a bad wrap because of misinformation and band-wagoners while it's pretty much no different than Steam, or any other distribution system.

i think the way how EA took off their games from steam (like dragon age 2) when they switched to origin made me never want to buy another game from them ever again

this is/was being blown out of proportion because of EA's currently bad reputation among gamers. consoles and distribution platforms have been targets of this before with fairly minimal user reaction but now because it's EA everyone is going nuclear
