  1. You're assuming your perception of China is in any way relevant to China. That's pretty absurd.

  2. Re:FBI should investigate Khashoggi killing on US Indicts Chinese Hacker-Spies In Conspiracy To Steal Aerospace Secrets (gizmodo.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    You're forgetting the FBI has zero jurisdiction over a Saudi national being murdered in Turkey. What the fuck are you smoking, bot?

  3. Looks like someone never stepped out of his hometown yet is convinced he knows what's "out there". Get out more, will you?

    I will understand your point once you convert all of that to Librairies of Congress.

    I will agree with you the moment you step off my lawn.

    That's nothing, Star Citizen made about 200 million so far without releasing an actual game, beat that Rockstar!

  7. Forgot to add: please don't scan my face.

  8. What I need from a phone:
    1) Ability to make calls/SMS;
    2) Being able to check my emails when out is convenient.

    That's it.
    No bloatware, no camera, no fingerprint reader, no goddamn hole in the screen- I'm sorry "notch", no foldable screen and for god's sake stop trying to make them so thin and "bevel less".
    Got my first smartphone a little over a year ago, the only reason I'd upgrade for a new one is if this one gets destroyed in a freak accident or planned obsolescence kills it.

  9. From TFS: "That investigation reportedly found that allegation to be credible."

  10. Oh look, the kind of douche that thinks feminism = hating men. Get back to your Trump rally.

    Please elaborate.

  12. Yeah, the idea is interesting but definately quite a while still before it becomes something to actually consider. Until they fix the resolution, FOV, and somehow make this into something you can work with for hours and hours, I'll stick with the current setup.

    It also turns "socialism" into a bad word. I can't imagine America ever getting out of the thick bubble it's lost in, this far ahead into its decline.

    Oh great, a deplorable. When was America great? Tell me exactly which period you're trying to get back to.

    1. I'm not from Europe, and 2) I don't think you realize what the Le Pen clan's positions are if you claim that's communist.

    Is that what you tell yourself when you vote for a DNC candidate offering to "clean out the muddy waters" instead of "drain the swamp" like their opponent? The US is a one-party nation. Change my mind.

  17. How about making sure the only person in harm's way is the one that chose to let a computer drive in their place?

  18. Same here. If I could edit video through an interface that spans my entire field of view, instead of a triple-monitor setup, I would probably jump on it. Definately would replace the background with something like a mountain scene or maybe edit by the lake today, switching to a starfield in the evening, ha!

  19. Personally never tried VR nor AR, doesn't appeal to me save for one use case I'd love to try: edit video in VR.

    My 3 monitor setup is great, but if I could use any space around me to place clips on, organize my footage say on a big board on one wall, have my main program preview placed somewhere, timeline underneath it and *gasp* the timeline extending well beyond the range of a computer screen, with a secondary "utility" timeline nearby, just for a few examples, would make editing so much more efficient and probably even more fun than it already is.

    I *think* Premiere started something like this with the new VR interface in Premiere 2018 but haven't really looked into it yet... there's a hell of a lot more gear I would get my hands on before I even contemplate the value of investing in a VR headset, not to mention possibly upgrading a computer that's still more than strong enough for my editing purposes.

    As it stands now, I don't see myself jumping in any year soon, but for creative/professional uses there's plenty of scenarios where it could be a game changer. More pro tech demos and development please, less "cute" caracters jumping on a sofa or that goddamn MagicLeap demo where they basically took the Ikea-shopping scene in Fight Club and turned it into reality for the better of mankind...

  20. I guess it depends on the wording you use to justify monitoring the border...

  21. Oh, a snarky remark about one of the editors! Thanks, we need you.

  22. Look up "Star Citizen" for something even more ridiculous.
