    I know that, dipshit, why is there no middle ground here except for chromebook, I dont need an i7 to type notes and check email, and I fat finger a 7 inch netbook's keyboard constantly. Why is this difficult? you are like the 3rd person to tell me this, if I want power I will go home and sit in front of my overclocked 3770k

    I want cheap with a full size keyboard, its amusing that a 13 inch "ultrabook" with a 1.8ghz cpu cost 800 bucks, but a 10 inch 1.6 ghz "netbook" cost 250

    give me 250 under 3lbs with a decent sized keyboard, it shouldn't be that radical of a jump

  12. meh on Sony Touts 25 Hour Battery Life For Haswell-Equipped Vaio Pro · · Score: 0

    all I want is a super light laptop that I can take notes on without having a netbook keyboard nor costing a freaking grand for a piss poor 1.8ghz CPU

    I didnt know that screwing a board to a box was now electronics, no wonder the world is going to shit and the best we can ever hope for is clones of the same crap we have now featuring innovative idea's like speakers facing forward!

  18. Re:Rasberry Pi is about education on Pi to Go: Hot Raspberry Pi DIY Mini Desktop PC Project · · Score: 1

    yea and ID and epic started back on the 8 bit machines when it was simple as well, even making something like pong on a current system is considerably more ballooned out. You dont just flip a switch, tell it to draw some pixels on a 40x40 grid (or whatever low res your machine had) and off you go. You cant even draw a pixel on a modern machine without importing gobs of libraries and learn how to use those as well as basic game fundamentals.

    yea thats a great warm and squishy fact is its bad for classrooms, you dont just plug it in boom instant python, and these expensive computers get trucked to the dump on pallettes cause they cant give a 3ghz P4 away anymore, which is easier to deal with and has far more programming options than python, which is a terrible language to start with

  25. Re:Its only a model on NASA Wants To Test 3-D Printing Aboard ISS · · Score: 1

    cause they melt metal and fill the molds, they are not making a foundry on the ISS and there are cheaper and quicker ways of producing molds with more percision such as machining a one off part and packing sand around it tens of thousands of times.

    spending hours to print a single digit inch cubed part that still requires machining (by hand or machine) thats going to last a fraction of that is simply stupid, hince why NASA is nothing more than a houmorous think tank wasting piles of money for no results after nearly 60 years.
