Its all in the timing mechanism.Critical events take EXTREMELY precise shaped charges and timing sequences to work. Make the shaped charges go off in the wrong order(which can be setup as a failsafe) and you have a fizzle.
The Three Laws were EXPRESSLY invented to show why such a simple system will not work. Asimov spent extensive amounts of time pointing this out to us. It is frustrating people think '3 laws safe'.
When i first heard of 3D printing, my mind lit on fire with the possibilities. Need a custom shim, PRINT IT. Lost a plastic part to something? PRINT IT! My absolute first thought was to design a holder for my Apple TV that will hook on to the vent holes in the back of my TV and suspend the ATV right below the bottom of the TV. An Apple TV holster, if you will. Do you look at a CNC mill and say 'can i lathe a baby with this?'
The web browser on the iphone was like nothing we had seen before. It actually worked for the vast majority of the web. THAT more then anything else is what drove its adoption. Calling it a toy is just ignorant hyperbole to make your point.
And you have a skewed idea of how easy it is. I can go to a game shop right now in America and have it done. I dont because quite honestly its easier to wait a few months after release and get it cheap versus fucking around with pirate crap. Its can be a lot of work.
You are saying you are a superior gaming driver with a KEYBOARD? You are a fool or lying. I would DESTROY you in racing games with an analog controller. I bought the original dual analog for PS1 when it came out JUST for NFS Hot Pursuit. I had NegCons, steering wheels of every kind.
I have no interest in Hulu with ads, ever. I hate ads, i hate being programmed like that. Those days are gone for me. I dont even like having to fast forward through them on the DVR anymore. Just sick of the volume of ads in my life.

Do the dead care how many sorties it was?
Microsoft has consistently screwed the pooch on UI design and you are going to let the run the whole show? Silly.
Logic fail. Nothing was broken. You do realize you can pass an encrypted stream through another device right?
Roosevelt firebombed the shit out of Tokyo, which killed more people. You are allowing the spectre of nuclear weaponry cloud your judgement.

You are a fool if you think Truman bears the mark of 'Most destructive ever'.
At the time, Japan was in Total War. Civilians become targets at that point. The Firebombing of Tokyo was actually worse then the atomic attacks.
I get what you are saying but you last line is a bit off. MOST bullets used in warfare are for suppression.
We STILL face annihilation any second, we just dont make it a national talking point anymore.

The actual XBOX business(disregarding its division affiliates) is DEEP into the red.

Its the only ACTUAL open hardware i own or have seen.
O look, someone who knows nothing about computer naming history.
Lets not forget that the guy running the Pi is a employee of Broadcom.

They saw what happened to audio so video has taken drastic steps to lock it all up.
It costs more then a Celeron NUC, which actually has cool features like full virtualization support.
Thats the point, they didnt really care about Halo 2 sales on PC as much as they wanted to use it as a carrot to spur Vista.
NO their heart was never in it. If they wanted to shift units, they wouldnt have forced Halo 2 to be Vista only.
