To be fair, the Dell Precision notebook on my desk doesn't have its display wobble like crazy regardless of what height the desk is at, so maybe I should be directing my ire at the Samsung LCD's godawful stand instead....
I have one of these desks and I barely use it in standing mode because it's wobbly as all hell to type on and I hate watching the LCDs jiggle around. I don't think I would ever recommend it because of that. Sucks that it was such a nice concept.
Better solution: don't go to places people go to hook up and/or get drunk if you're actually trying to socialize. Bars are shitty places to choose to hang out in.
An "armed churchgoer" is not somehow orthogonal to "off-duty police officer." I am pretty sure that the people best trained in the use of lethal force are criminals and hobbyists; do you REALLY consider governmental bureaucratic organizations to be exceedingly competent?
Shipping the real game engine (the one that runs on their servers) with the game would give hackers a strong chance at finding vulnerabilities in the server. Security through obscurity has a benefit here for the multi-player experience.
Incidentally, I was looking forward to D3 but I truly agree with the viewpoint that you shouldn't have to be on-line to play a game solo and so I haven't been keen on actually picking it up... maybe I am still annoyed about WoW as well, but I just don't feel like giving Blizzard my money.
No, your available options are actually NOT displayed in front of you. In GUI software there are deep hierarchical menus, keyboard commands, drag-and-drop, hybrid input-output widgets, additional actions for different mouse buttons and the mouse wheel... It's not some simple box full of buttons you can click, emulating an ancient computer operator panel. The GUI is neither simple nor intuitive: it just IS. Like the CLI.
You only work with trivial software if you have formulated that opinion from your software experience. Intuition is not even remotely a universally-shared notion. This is why there are manuals and why training exists.
Nice fantasy, but reality requires waiting for enough fascists to die and enough young people to be willing to revolt before any real change will occur in the US.
Light can bounce around corners and not require line-of-sight in a similar manner to how sound can do that. Sound doesn't pass all that well through most objects, you know.
Huawei should not be ignored. They're going to come onto the world market in a big way this year. For instance, I am truly looking forward to their new flagship coming later this year -- 1.5GHz, 1280x720 and 2500mAH without crazy Android customization that every big manufacturer seems to be in love with. Samsung may make nice displays but they focus more on a diaspora of handsets rather than making exceptional ones.

Being upset by a T-shirt is not a safety matter.
If by computer you mean some kind of ground system....
Not to mention that no one's life should be threatened in this particular situation... because people are free to move away from the fire.

Fun fact: the portable gaming market has been served by dedicated electronics devices for over two decades!
Do you typically think in letters?
(Except in C++, where it could mean anything.)
I prefer the more concise "".methods[/sub/].
Ludicrous -- Microsoft has antitrust experience and would never try to prevent other browsers from running on Windows.
I'm fairly sure that anyone that "into" this game would have gotten into the Beta, as well.
I don't think 54ms is all that bad.

You think it's a mandatorily-enabled setting, do you?
and yet every GPS for a car comes with a windshield-oriented mounting kit....
Sorry, but peripheral vision actually does exist.

It's not called guessing -- it is called LEARNING. Or did you just magically know COPY/MOVE/RENAME/MD/CD/C:/B:/whatever commands? Ridiculous.

China would have to work VERY hard to make me trust them less than I trust the USA, my friend.
