Current display technologies don't use these "subpixels". CRTs and plasma displays still use them, but those are pretty much obsolete now. Grab a magnifying glass and look closely at the picture on a CRT or plasma screen, and you can see the subpixels. If you use the magnifying glass on an LCD or OLED screen, you don't see the subpixels, because the color of the pixel is not made up of 3 subpixels, but just one.
This new technology might improve resolution compared to existing technologies, but then why bring up the obsolete "subpixel" comparison?
This sounds like a convenience, but it may also have the added benefit of completely ruining two-factor authentication. If an attacker can add his device to your account, and receive texts that are intended for you, then he can use 2FA and really ruin your life!
Wow. A computer (designed by humans) beats humans at a game (designed by humans). Should I be impressed? I'm really not. Computers have been beating humans at games for DECADES! It doesn't really say anything about humans being obsolete when an AI trounces a human at tic-tac-toe.
I think AlphaGo's time would be better spent trying to do something that could benefit mankind. Figure out a health-care bill that is equitable for all. Balance the US budget. Anything but moving little rocks around on a grid!
Then this is a problem that solves itself. Spammers send voicemails without ringing your phone until your voicemail is full. Then the just get "Voicemail is full message", and then realize that nobody is listening to the voicemails. Problem solved.
"What's bullshit, Mr. Quaid? That you're having a paranoid episode triggered by acute neurochemical trauma? Or, that you're really an invincible secret agent from Mars, who is the victim of an interplanetary conspiracy to make him think he's a lowly contruction worker?"
I don't know why everyone hates comic sans... maybe it was just overused and everyone just got sick of it... but I find it very easy to read. Some of the more fancy and embellished fonts are much harder to read.
...and yet the trailer doesn't really punch like other Macfarlane properties do. If it's *REALLY* about the captain bickering with his ex the whole time, that's not enough to make it funny.
And Janeway was originally going to be French too, but they replaced the actor after some test footage didn't turn out as they had hoped.
The Janeway CHARACTER wasn't going to be French, but the actress was! They replaced her because she wasn't willing to dedicate herself to the show. The French are used to all sorts of workers rights that we don't have in the US. They have limited work hours, more mandatory time off, etc.
While the other actors would be putting in 12 hour days for shooting, she would go home after 8.
Ed Dillinger: "What's the project you're working on?"
Alan Bradley: "Well, it's called TRON. It's a security program in itself, actually. It monitors all contacts between our systems and other systems. Finds anything going on that's not scheduled, it shuts it down."
Ed Dillinger: "Part of the Master Control Program?"
Alan Bradley: "No. No, it'll run independently... and watchdog the MCP as well."

I would happily let Radio Shack close all its stores if it meant that we could get just one Fry's electronics store in my state (MN).
You completely screwed up that joke.
It wasn't Windows XP, but rather Windows 95 that would crash after 49.7 days of continuous usage.
Maybe Chrome is winning because the former CTO of mozilla was using Chrome instead of Firefox. Way to eat your own dog food, Mozilla!
They do.
An example of a gig worker is Quagmire. Giggity!

If the robot cop accepts payment for fines, does that mean it's a mobile ATM? How long before it's stolen?
IPv6 anyone?
Indeed. I never watched Mystery Science Theater 3000.

Quick! Everybody get a land line!
Then why is there no US cent symbol on current US PC keyboards? You can't just overtype like that in a word processor.

My mother has an old manual typewriter that doesn't even *HAVE* a one. You are expected to use a lowercase L.

Too Soon.
It's already a muscle car. Let me know when the Ford Fiesta gets to 200BHP.

How do any of the techs in CSI ever see what they're doing when the labs are so DARK?
Do you consider Admiral Ackbar 'white'?

You think the fishers won't send emails to users saying "Your password has expired. CLICK HERE to change it."?
