Same here. I wanted one badly but nothing looked promising until I saw Pebble... and they certainly delivered. Best we can do right now with our current battery tech. Maybe someone'll make an amazing smartwatch in 5 or 10 years when we get those super MIT batteries or whatever, but not yet.
Great. Now we can look forward to even more fakerer bluescreen acting and even MORE packed and MORE dense scenes to cover up the complete lack of quality dialogue or plot that George Lucas is so good at creating.
Whether or not the poster is being paid to comment or not... I have played Firefall for a few months now and it is quite awesome. It's one of the best MMOFPS since Neocron 2.
"If I bring a peanut butter sandwich to work, then I'm directly responsible for putting my colleague in danger"............ Did I just read that? LOL. No. Just no. I have a pile of coins on my desk, doesn't mean I directly put my colleague in danger of choking or abdominal injuries incase they decide to swallow them.
Really? For me it is the pre-movie adds, the ads interspersed during the trailors, the annoying guys walking around with airplane landing flashlights, the 5 dollar sodas, and eventually, when its over, the feeling that you just spent 20 bucks on a movie that you really aren't sure you even liked.
Where is the new generation of David Lynches, Tarantinos, Darren Aronofskys, etc? I want more movies like Mirrormask or Science of Sleep or Fish Story or The Fountain... damn it. If the plot isn't too complicated for half the audience its not worth paying to see (except via Netflix).
Tell that to Carmageddon... they just sent an email out saying 'Ohai kickstarter guyz! I was going to make your game and have it to you already, but our publisher decided such support from kickstarter warranted a significant investment and so now we're SUPERCHARGING EVERYTHING! The game will be out sometime in the next century. Have a nice day and thanks for your money.'
And by 'god', you clearly mean the American government. These guys probably got the idea of xraying people from a truck because our government officials actually have trucks that xray shit when they drive down the street that are already suspected to cause health problems. But hey, at least we should feel safe that the only ones xraying American citizens work for the government, right? They probably just slapped a DHS sticker on the side of the van, attached a video display so they can look at people fucking through their walls, and called it an official gov't asset.
Guns bans have never been nor will ever be about controlling criminals or protecting innocent lives. It's all about making the general public feel safe, especially when they are not. "You know, I know this steak doesn't exist. I know that when I put it in my mouth, the Matrix is telling my brain that it is juicy and delicious. After 9 years, you know what I realize? Ignorance is bliss."
The government doesn't care about most of us. They will only arrest people who, as MOPC said, pissed someone with more power than us off. Otherwise the only people who get arrested are the random members of the herd who are necessary to make status quo numbers.
It's kind of where America has been headed for a while. We're all about regulations and numbers and basically the movie Brazil.
I find its fairly easy to get them fixed on one or the other, but I find it impossible to make them go up and down as a high rate of speed like I would need in a game.
Yah.. I'm inclined to say "or else what?" Have fun chasing down those oilfield trucks that are 30 miels in the brush illegally using cell phone boosters!
Trucks in 30 miles of brush? Unleash the surveillance drones of war!
It's a tragic state of things when the father things he has a better chance of success by claiming religious reasons for not wearing a privacy invading device instead of actually calling it out for what it is. Sad thing is, I'm pretty sure he's right. Of course there's always the chance that he's just a crazy bastard really thinking its the mark of the beast or whatever. Either way, good luck on the fight.
Particularily since only a moron would think SteveBallmer@outlook.com is his actual email address. It was left open because @outlook.com is a public email address, same as @hotmail.com. I'm sure whoever owns SteveBallmer@hotmail.com got the dumbest people around emailing them when hotmail came out too:P (this post is not the opinion of microsoft or steveballmer)
You guys must be doing something seriously wrong if you think Windows 8 is worse than 7... Windows 8, used properly, is superior in every single way to 7. By use properly I mean uninstall everything called an "app" and learn to use Windows+E and Windows+X keys combinations. Use start screen only to search for programs.
Also avoid the store, because you can only buy "apps" there, not programs.
I get the feeling that America in general will dismiss this as something just affecting sex offenders, but it definitely feels like a huge step onto a very slippery slope. What I would most like to see is the people as a whole rise up and crush laws like this from overwhelming public outcry, same like SOPA.
Indeed. When I first saw the high framerate once it got passed the initial surprise I just thought 'This is the future of movies'. It makes it look almost as realistic as video games, its great. Whenever they panned over any scenery (Which they do a lot) it looks very much like it would in real life. Most movies that do that its uber blurry or just very slow.
I'm pretty sure the idiots just copy paste it to bing, google, altavista, yahoo, tripod, and pretty much all the web sites those hipster pirates use these days
It's all based on self-acceptance. If you can accept who you are and haven't been programmed to find your own behavior as 'odd' or unacceptable then there is no reason you cannot thrive and rejoice in who you are.
I can objectively see my behavior as very odd compared to normal, but I also see the extreme advantages I have over others because of it. I would never, ever give it up. It would be like superman curing his extreme kryptonite allergy but having to give up his super powers in the process.
Unfortunately AMD architecture is significantly worse for gaming. Just because numbers and FPS look equally good, the FPS loss during spikes is more common and worse.

The marketing department will probably do the same thing, except have TSA agents at the entrance to the event.

Wow. We're making Cranium Rats? Anyone that has played Planescape Torment knows thats a bad idea.

Yeah, very sad. I voted against this but apparently most people did not read about the props in detail...
