    Sony REDUCED the number of ports, they didnt eliminate them.

    Halo Anniversary worked in 3D jsut as well as Uncharted 3 on the Playstation 3D Display. Not sure what you are going on about. If your Sandy Bridge comp is dropping frames while playing back anything that isnt 4k, your comp is fail. Hell, My Raspberry PI can play full 1080p high bitrate.

    You can buy a IR dongle for it, cheap. I hear ya, but there are easy solutions.

    We are seeing the return of mechanical keyboards, but they are marketed to gamers.

    Mac Mini Wireless keyboard doesnt have a delete button, are you saying your laptop is a 'more real' Mac? Also, the latter part of your post is silly, if its being moved to the recycle bin, its not a delete.

    Driving is dangerous too, yet every car comes with a vast array of readouts and inputs.

  7. Re:Not a HUD on Programming a Wearable Android Device · · Score: 1

    A HUD is literally a Heads Up Display, which this certainly is. Projected overlay within normal field of view is an implementation of HUD, but not its defining characteristic. In this type of application, both implementations are attached to the head rendering the inferred head position of HUD a bit moot.

    The problem is we havent seen TRUE computer voting in action. What we have seen is vested 3rd parties push machines on us that OBVIOUSLY can be backdoor'd. Any one of us here could design an e-voting system that outclasses anything made by Diebold, if only for the fact that we wouldnt be trying to backdoor it on purpose.

    The great thing about XBMC is that its still going, STRONG. Im running a customized XBMC on Raspberry Pi, and its fantastic. I plan on rolling them out to my family for Christmas.

    HOw is it being a selfish asshole to remind idiots that cars can stop suddenly and to not put yourself in that position. Once someone is within two cars lengths of me at highway speed, THAT person is the danger, not me.

  17. Re:It's an Effing Toll Road on Texas Opens Fastest US Highway With 85 MPH Limit · · Score: 2, Insightful

    NO car should ever be close enough to me that if i slam on the brakes they cannot stop, period. If you are that close then it is YOU who puts others in danger. You should always assume that the car in front of you is going to stop immediately because it may have to.

  18. Re:It's an Effing Toll Road on Texas Opens Fastest US Highway With 85 MPH Limit · · Score: 1

    The point of my post was, if im going the speed limit, i have no obligation to let you pass, riding my ass will not change the situation. Why do you need to pass me if im already going the speed limit? If you collide with me from behind, even if im standing on the brakes, it is 100% your fault for operating your vehicle beyond safe limits. There is no possible scenario where you should be close enough to my bumper that you cant stop in time.

  19. Re:Autobahn on Texas Opens Fastest US Highway With 85 MPH Limit · · Score: 1

    If its not marked SPECIFICALLY 'passing lane' then its not, at least where i live. You guys must live around alot of 2 lane highways. It takes me an hour to get out that far.

    Flow of traffic is irrelevant. I will drive at a speed I deem safe, regardless of what the herd is doing. If I'm doing the speed limit in the far left lane you have no right to bitch.

    You get close enough with that bumper and I'll slam on the brakes. Don't tailgate. If you don't like how slow I'm going, tough shit, I'm in the lead and I will drive at a speed I deem safe.

    ^^^^ this. On the 696 at rush hour it is a solid river of cars going 80 mph, well inside suburbia. A cop can't pull you over even if he wanted to.
