This is stupid. The bottom line here is electronic devices are pretty uncommon in nature. Human brains didn't evolve to deal with random tech-toys being around. If cell-phones were part of their environment on an evolutionary timescale, the ones who wasted energy playing on facebook would've lost out to the ones who got on with the business of finding food and mating. What's happening here is you're introducing a novel element into their world that their evolutionary "psychology" isn't equipped to handle. We have no idea what's really happening in their tiny brains while surfing on that phone, but most likely neural circuits that developed for other, functional reasons are simply being tricked by the novel situation and don't know how to handle it in a manner that's more useful.
As an aside, that's all too tin foil hat for me. I'll leave that problem to the paranoids to deal with. I'm all for complete access to everything by everyone. I've got a beautiful system no one will use because all of it is open for inspection and change on the fly. For mature users only.
Yup, you definitely lack any creativity, even of thought.
Would you believe that most of us artists prefer to actually see our lines appear where we are drawing them and not glancing between two surfaces and having to hover around to find the right spot on the tablet that corresponds to the right spot on the screen.
That's not the sad part. It's not like Wacom doesn't have its problems with pressure curves. The real problem is only 256 levels of pressure. Though a well calibrated 256 can outperform some wacoms with 1024 due to pressure response, it's still a disappointment.
Due to Google's unscrupulous behavior and refusal to help their customers, I bought a Dell Venue 8 Pro as my new tablet and I could not be happier with it.
So basically you're saying you work for microsoft and are not very good with computers? Why else would you buy an over-priced arm tablet with a tiny ecosystem and be happy about the purchase???

I'm much happier being able to see 3d in the real world and all because I used tech like this for isolation and control.
Anything, if done without awareness, can be detrimental. With awareness, everything turns into a tool.
n.b. I didn't say anything about the eye not focusing at all, just that it doesn't know where to focus in the first place.
Seriously, why do you think this is a problem when more than half the population are incapable of doing this in real life?

Ah, one of the drug addicts on state approved drugs.
Still my favorite version.
Wait, were you talking about my computer?

Where freedom refers to the the government being free to fuck you over as much as they want!
Did you even read the second line I wrote? Try understanding it.
You must be a drone.
Different bodies function differently. Just like the majority of people need something to speed them up, some people need something to slow them down.
P.S. you suck eh?
I wonder if soulskill gets paid, if so, clearly he's overpaid.
and replaced with ccd blooms...
you're an idiot. Just let your stupidity go and realize that while you might not have a use for it, others do.

Way to disappoint all the graphic artists out there. Finally thought there was something to compete with Cintiq's.
Not everybody is as blind as you are!
So you've never done ANY graphic/video/audio work have you?
What sort of content can be created with a stylus on a tablet?
Ah, you're one of those people with only half a brain. See, most of us, we have this hemisphere that has a lot to do with creativity and art.

Haha, so you bought Dell. Classic.

Ever compile something twice?
...and you won't need all those cops when it's impossible to speed!
You should learn the difference between romans and greeks.
