  1. Re:Expensive, but at least its complete... on HTC Vive Is $799, Ships From April 1st (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    It has a lot to do with frame rate, Vive asks devs to maintain at LEAST 90fps, and I think the oculus (pre release) does as well.

  2. Re:Just hit me in the head with a hammer on HTC Vive Is $799, Ships From April 1st (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    They're both much better now, the Oculus EVT models and the Vive both massively improve on the DK level experience.

    That's almost a starvation diet, you've got a seriously screwed thyroid if you still have weight issues.

    They make no differentiation between those who can and don't and those who can't and do not, and thus your argument is invalid.

    Can't believe I wasted my extra valuable time reading that..

    I love reading posts from people who've obviously barely stepped outside their own hometown, but somehow think to know all about that big world out there..

  8. Re:Respect for the law for everyone, not just the on Uber In Retreat Across Europe · · Score: 1, Troll

    Actually, the original Europeans who came over here were tired of getting the short end of the religion stick, and wanted to be the bullies who got to define what religion was right.

    That and Australia still was undiscovered...

    The word is Capice (or capisci if you're speaking italian properly)..

  10. Re:Fighting Poverty..not new. on Turning Around a School District By Fighting Poverty (npr.org) · · Score: 1

    I think that the NO experiment(if that's what it is) would point to the need for a full switch, either no public schools, and all charter, or all public schools.

    The problem seems to be that when there is a safety net of sorts for the charter schools to dump underperforming students, they'll use it.

  11. Carpaccio then?

    The consumer version is much better, and the Engineering samples we have are extremely close to the final product.

    It is a very nice kit.

    You obviously have no idea how it works then.. You decide the size of your room, it doesn't have to be the max size..

  16. Half the London Cabbies I've ridden with have card readers in the car, at least 90% of the ones I've gotten in Zone 1 had stickers saying they accepted them.. Cellular connected card readers aren't super high tech..

    I half remember a small fee for using the card, but that's nothing new, most convenience stores charge something.

    Let's hope you did it to yourself, as you missed the blinding sarcasm and satire that were probably visible from space..

    Possibly, but it's going to be invisible to any of the light spectrum we work in, though I do wonder if would be something neat to have the ladies caress your invisible locks of dark matter hair (sounds better than hairy dark matter)..

    Your monkey brain, which is usually overruled by your conscious brain is responsible for your fear of snakes.
    Your monkey brain, which is unable to understand facts and statistics, is responsible for you being afraid of people you're unlikely to ever meet.

  22. Re:What if it was a bomb? on "Clock Boy" Ahmed Mohamed Seeking $15 Million In Damages · · Score: 1

    A bomb, or an easily transportable clock (handles are good for that).

    What the school should have done, is once they understood it was not a bomb, was to not call the police, and not act like chicken little.

    What sort of litigation should there be for you posting hyperbole and being incurably stupid (I blame your Mom)?

  23. Re:Fantastic way to lose all sympathy on "Clock Boy" Ahmed Mohamed Seeking $15 Million In Damages · · Score: 1

    He was arrested, it's not anyone's fault but your own that you can't understand that being put in cuffs by the police == arrest.

    Hell even a legal dictionary says you're wrong:

    An arrest may occur (1) by the touching or putting hands on the arrestee; (2) by any act that indicates an intention to take the arrestee into custody and that subjects the arrestee to the actual control and will of the person making the arrest; or (3) by the consent of the person to be arrested. There is no arrest where there is no restraint, and the restraint must be under real or pretended legal authority. However, the detention of a person need not be accompanied by formal words of arrest or a station house booking to constitute an arrest.
