  1. Re: Considering they fail at nearly sixty times.. on More NFL Players Attack Microsoft's $400M Surface Deal With The NFL (yahoo.com) · · Score: 1

    Considering most business will BUY technology they need rather than being paid to use sub-par garbage for advertising purposes.....

  2. Re:It gives me pleasure to introuce you to the fut on US Police Consider Flying Drones Armed With Stun Guns (digitaltrends.com) · · Score: 1

    Yeah, with mistrust of police at an all time high, weaponinzed drones in the cops' hands, how could that go wrong?

  3. Yeah, that does make it tough. Dunno, maybe check for local gaming-type "conventions"/meetups, like at the local community college or something along those lines.

    Best of luck with that, not sure what else to suggest.

  4. You don't make new friends at work, or at the bar/club/activity that takes place outside of your own home?

  5. Well, granted there are 4 major gaming systems (XBox, Playstation, Nintendo, and PC). If you guys can't co-ordinate one at least once a month, you just may not have time for gaming any more....at least not multiplayer

  6. Beacuse... on Television Needs To Be Reinvented, Says Apple SVP (businessinsider.com) · · Score: 1

    ...god forbid people have to actual learn how to do anything rather thean just randomly say "I want xxxxxxx" and it just happens for them....

    As for "rights" issues, eliminate copyright, problem solved

  7. After the wars the USA can switch the robots off quietly rather than dumping them on the street to beg and fend for themselves like they do now....

  8. Yes, but since they're friends, it's not like you'd be remote gaming with strangers, Some allowances must be made,

  9. Oh yeah, agreed. Nintendo has always been behind the curve power/graphics wise on Sony and MS, but their games also tend be a lot of fun, as graphics aren't everything

    If the games suck, the graphics don't matter

  10. You don't have friends already? Or you mean you like to play with total strangers?
    Did everyone you went to school with die after you left school?
    I mean local as in "C'mon over over man, we'll have some [insert drink of choice here] and play a few rounds of [game you all enjoy]!"

  11. Re:Nintendo OFFICIALLY has left the "console" mark on Nintendo Unveils 'Switch', Its New Gaming Console and Tablet Hybrid (engadget.com) · · Score: 1

    "or wireless controllers (tho that last one might argue you need the wires for the true retro experience)."

    Tape a string to the controller and the other end to the console ? ;)

  12. Actually, online play is a meaningless feature for me in a console.

    If I want to play with others, I'll stick with local or use a computer....

  13. Easy is also usually the oppostie of CHEAP or even REASONABLE

  14. Damn, I actually called this one right. I was hoping I was wrong, but it is essentially a new DS with the ability to connect to a TV....

  15. Uhh...no on Nintendo NX Will Be Officially Revealed Tomorrow (gamespot.com) · · Score: 1

    If they fail to show hardware and games, it's just another pointless, stupid trailer for what is more and more sounding like a new DS with a TV connector....

  16. We already know your products suck, too late, the cat is out of the bag.

    Coming down like a totalitarian nutjob only makes you look even worse

  17. Re:If only there was some possible way to ... on Amazon Japan's Manga-Ready Kindle Has 8 Times the Storage (engadget.com) · · Score: 1

    Lazy stupid people deserve to be confused and lost. It's not that hard to to have folders and put things in them.

    There's no user-friendly reason for the device to not be able to easily handle this basic concept either.

    Part of the point is that the storage has gotten so cheap there's no excuse, even if you seal the device and just permanently install a 128GB or larger microHD card in one of these devices. That eliminates the whole "external device/changing cards" "weakness" you describe.

    If folders are that hard for the device to be programmed for, then the maker is just trying to be an ass instead of making a user friendly device.

  18. Re:If only there was some possible way to ... on Amazon Japan's Manga-Ready Kindle Has 8 Times the Storage (engadget.com) · · Score: 1

    Sounds like all the more reason to have SD cards. One for kids stuff, the other for porn. It's not rocket surgery....

  19. Re:I really don't understand on Amazon Japan's Manga-Ready Kindle Has 8 Times the Storage (engadget.com) · · Score: 1

    Considering how small they can make large MicroSD cards, why is 32 GB in a device the zies oe a tablet or e-reader considered "large" anymore?

  20. I look at it this way, MS had to PAY the NFL to take and use the Surfaces, that alone tells you how bad they are.

    If they were any good, the NFL would've had to actually buy them themselves...

  21. Why?

    He sells tickets to the games and generates enough controversy to keep the NFL in the spotlight, that's why.

  22. Maybe the dumb jocks should stopping bullying the nerds and treat them a little more nicely if they want their high-tech toys to work right for them ;)

  23. Don't worry, Trump has an excuse, the election is rigged *rolls eyes*

    Drink your Flavor-aid already trump-supporters...

  24. Where are my mod points when I need them to upmod someone, even if that someone is an AC....

  25. It was a fishing expedition that happened to bear fruit this time, still ridiculous.
