    You say that like nobody's ever fucked a Hoover.

  2. Kinect needs to be more accurate on Natural Interaction With Flying Robots Via Kinect · · Score: 1

    The kinect will only be useful when coupled with VR, to project an entire cockpit to a user sitting in a plain chair, allowing them to fly ANYTHING from ANYWHERE with just a change to the software profile. Until then all this flapping about is inefficient.

    The Kinect has to be able to tell the difference between 2 'buttons' pressed one inch apart.

    I support the idea of a Fox News kill switch.

  4. Re:Business not a zero sum game on Google's Six-Front War · · Score: 2

    With the current population higher than ever in history, yes, I think advancements have made up for a few deaths along the way. Might not be a popular view, but there you have it, we have a better quality of life today, because our descendants were aggressive bastards.

    3 Social engineer the hijackers into surrendering

    This would involve playing "Friday" over the Airplane's speaker system?

    On second thoughts, that might trigger number 2.

    And most certainly make you the target of number 1.

    That's okay, I do ..... Dammit.

  13. Re:ctl + F, then escape, enter, for links in brows on One Week: No Mouse, Just Keyboard · · Score: 1

    When I read the title and summary I immediately imagined browsing the web to be tab, tab, tab, tab, tab, tab, tab, tab, tab, tab, tab, tab, tab, tab, tab, tab, tab, tab, tab, tab, tab, tab, tab, tab, tab, tab, tab, shift-tab, shift-tab, enter, repeat. This method makes a bit more sense.

  14. Re:Learn something everyday on New Technology Turns Windows Into Solar Panels · · Score: 1

    Any company would rather make their offices floor to ceiling in glass, but then they get too much light in (the office being too bright is not the problem, just overheating), and thus have to install blinds. This ability to siphon off some of the heat will work in their favour.

  15. Re:Eye Tracking on Camera Lets You Shift Focus After Shooting · · Score: 1

    Then combine it with 3D tech. A common complaint is that you are 'forced' to see the 3D the director wants you to see, and are wrenched about the screen. Once these cameras become powerful enough, then you just add a second one 3.25 inches apart.

  16. Re:Similar to how pornography reduced sex crimes.. on Violent Games Credited With Reducing Crime Levels · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Perhaps, but the remaining sex crimes showed increased instances of tentacle use.

    Do it, do it now, they are on to you. No really, it's not just what they want you to think, they really mean it, your time is up, go to ground and never resurface again. Someone within your own organisation has outed you to the Feds, you can't trust any of them, scatter and break all contact with all your members, as any one of them could be the informant. They will get you if you remain organised.

  23. Re:I know on Women Remain the Ignored Audience In Gaming · · Score: 2

    My Soon-to-be-wife will only play one computer game with me, Borderlands. The reason being, she can shoot and play around with me, but it things get out of control (swamped by bandits) she knows she can just cover her eyes and panic until I've killed them all. If you ask her what her favourite part of the game is, she'll tell you:
    "Opening the boxes and finding items"

    She's not mentally deficient in any way (I think) it's a simple case that she finds it more enjoyable to run about with me looking for the powerups while I worry about where she should put talents, what quest we're on and where the boss's weakpoints are.

    Funny thing is, though, when we were nearing the end of the first playthrough, she was surprisingly good at the game, often thinning out a field of baddies with a sniper rifle before I could close the distance for shotgun use.

    They definitely get different forms of enjoyment out of games that we do. The kind of game that will appeal to both genders is one that offers a reward that both genders values. Which is why Farmville/The Sims or such games are so popular to both, you can tailor the rewards to your own liking.
