Not to mention that they sold their designs to Qualcomm and then had the CEO jump over there as well. Now look how well Qualcomm is doing with AMD IP. Their biggest problem was a string of incompetent CEOs and upper management.
Just wait until games are being made for the PS4 and xb one. I'm looking forward to the optimizations and the fact that they'll be the same architecture as discrete cards. Hopefully that means game developers will allow their games to scale more since it shouldn't really be much work and they don't need to port them.
Do people really think this is to screw with their customers? AMD makes pretty much zero off their adapters. They clearly aren't doing this to protect revenue streams. It's obviously some workaround hack for something, or some end case that wasn't initially considered in the design, or conforming to the dvi spec somehow. I'm really not sure why people think this is malicious. Really? THIS is what's going to make you not buy AMD?
I don't understand how people keep getting their extensions broken by firefox updates? If they're written properly, they don't break with updates anymore.
This coming from a guy who couldn't figure out how to play a video on the playbook (http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/philg/2012/12/05/christmas-gift-for-someone-you-hate-windows-8/).
On a mostly unrelated point, you can do most anything you like to your iphone, including putting a different browser on it. Apple just doesn't have to offer a competing browser in the app store.
This is incorrect. You can't do that unless Apple allowed sideloading (or you root your device, which Apple doesn't "allow").
And one could use the same argument to say that you can do anything you like on your computer, including putting a different operating system on it. Msft just doesn't have to offer a competing operating system in the stores.

The new consoles are, particularly the PS4.

Yup, it's called Panel Self Refresh (PSR)

And didn't firefox recently change the default to "block 3rd party cookies"?
Isn't it possible that this guy just deleted his cookies? My browser is blocking 3rd party cookies, so I can't "opt out".

I'd imagine that you would also have sensors on the car to confirm the information.
Mythbusters even did it.

Err, how would it detect that the lights have gone down if it's in your pocket?
It's a proof of concept...
Actually, they're pretty close on that front.
Better yet, stop using/selling/owning guns...
Nope, plugins are in a separate process. Have been for quite a while now....
Pretty sure that doesn't happen any more with the new way they write extensions.
Firefox has a version that releases less often for corporate users. Also, Chrome does the exact same thing, sans the alternate version.
Guess I'll just have to copy the content of the story and not link to them.
So...they copied BB10?
Hah, and what display technology is this that allows 240hz on a reasonably sized monitor? 120hz is difficult enough, even on DisplayPort.

Take what he says with a grain of salt.
I call it Safari in a different skin.

Haha yea, I was originally like "HOLY SHIT! One of the fundamental laws of the universe has been potentially broken? FREE ENERGY FOR ALL!"
