Dual DLP projectors with a 3D separation box (there are several) is even nicer, but you'll have to align the two images very well.

Gnu code would be code made by the Gnu project, not just code licensed under the Gnu license. Sorry.
My code isn't Gnu code, even when under the GPL. Its Gnu code if and only if I sign over the Copyrights to to the FSF, and even that's sketchy; its still not written by them.
PS I don't consider people who think homosexuality is wrong on religious basis to be homophobic, and the word doesn't mean that either. I think cheating is wrong by way of example, but I'm still friends with and don't give people a hard time for being cheaters. He does not appear to have a fear of or hatred for homosexuals, he simply disagrees with their sexual preference. There's a difference that many try to ignore.
When did truth become the primary arbiter of what's taught in classrooms?
Also, since a large number of Americans believe in Creation, not teaching it in school is akin to not teaching students about the dangers of electricity. Ignoring reality doesn't make it go away.
As someone else pointed out, choosing not to believe in anything is protected thought and belief in the USA, or so it was back when it was a greater nation than today.
You ignored my comment about being against any type of book banning, and used a strawman to claim I supported court orders against schools. What I said was that parents should be the final arbiters of what their children are taught because the state ought to have no right to impose much beyond standards of minimum education on children.
To think otherwise is to support yet another benefit to the rich who can afford private schooling, or the class of workers who can afford or arrange to homeschool their children, both of which eliminate putting up with the public school system anyway. The public school system only exists for those children whose parents can't afford either of the other options, and shouldn't throw its weight around without realizing it wouldn't exist at all in its present state if many of them had the choice.
Silly Catholics... the feast Jesus participated in was a well-established ritual recognizing the eating of the Passover lamb to escape the angel of death during the plagues of Egypt. The speech Jesus was reciting was a normal part of the Passover except he switched out a few lines, inserting himself as the Passover lamb (despite having obviously cooked a real lamb).
It seems obvious even on a cursory glance that he was making a nearly literal but very metaphoric statement -- he was going to act as the Passover lamb to prevent deaths as those original lambs had done back in Egypt by dying on a cross.
Now whether you believe in all the spiritual and supernatural part of the story is up to you, but Jesus' statements at the time eventually being translated into the Catholic Church's view of the eating of the literal body and blood of the Christ is just disturbing.
Stop the FUD about OSC being a homophobe -- he's responded many times to this allegation and there's no proof of it except in conspiracy-minded idiots' rantings.
Of course they should. What do you think the school system is for exactly?
No offense, I'm against this book ban and any other on a school wide scale, but parents should always have the last word on education (since they could after-all simply homeschool if they had the resources). There's no reason a public school system should have the right to dictate education without parental approval, unless you believe in something other than the freedoms America no longer stands for, of course.
Which is exactly how it should be, in the case where the game is truly incompatible or would be unsupportably bad on that device. Being able to stop people from installing things that won't work on their devices is a great feature of the Market (now Google Play) but a lot of the time it seems more arbitrary than reasoned.
I've been thinking about this myself and it occurs to me regularly that while the PS3 has blu-ray discs for distributing very high quality audio and texture assets with games, the average PC gamer does not. It seems strange to me that the platform with higher peak quality (PCs) have a lower average disc size for games (akin more to the 360). I think your reasoning is also true, especially in the case of DirectX games designed to work on both PC and 360, but I suspect storage (and distribution costs in the case of Steam) are an issue too.
TL;DR version: PS3s get 50GB disc storage, PC gamers don't.
We haven't had such performance metrics for 90% of the life of PCs and it didn't matter much when it happened. The Experience Index is a pretty terrible indicator of how well third party apps will run, but such a benchmark would possibly be intriguing as a metric of how a specific Android version runs solo (yay?).
Unfortunately, as new computing techniques come out and new chipsets evolve and new Android versions are distributed to support them, those old numbers will mean less and less and need to be recomputed.
What happens when a Windows PC gamer doesn't have the latest video card to play a triple-A game with? Either the developer offers crippled code for low end systems or they get told to upgrade their hardware.
Why isn't this true on Android? Because people have different expectations of phones than of PCs still. I see it changing, and its not far away. It won't be long before people say "I need a new phone to play X, Y and Z" instead of "your app sux0rz it doesnt work on my fone".
For those who aren't into clicking pictures, it lists the movies playing above a link to the threatre itself, and a map to its location on the right. All without clicking anything yet.
Heh... I can't imagine anyone who's dealt with moving settings between Windows machines, or ever upgraded to Vista, or bet on an old mobile API can possibly think Google is the one pissing off long term customers;-)
Google has never required and does not require javascript. Javascript is only used when available for real-time results instead of waiting until you hit enter.
Using quotes and bang! to emphasize which words I really care about to Google helps for those rare occasions its not perfect for me, but I don't seem to be having these problems other people experience.
Note: I still miss the level of nitpicking you could do with hotbot... but alas.
This, exactly. Its so annoying to explain to someone that turning their headlights "on" is actually necessary for people to see them from behind; their own running lights in the front don't help rear end collisions at all.
The last person I'd ever trust for source material is the one who has the most to gain by lying.
Banks don't want you to call 911 if there's fraud on your account either; they want you to call them so it can be handled internally, so they can keep claiming that fraud isn't a problem.
Don't trust material that isn't independently verified. Period.
Thank God you're not my doctor when my son was in ICU.

When my cell phone rings from a customer and I ignore it, I'm going to get a lot of flak and probably lose that customer -- sure, I bill them triple-time rates for calling after-hours, but I answer my phone for my customers, and I keep them.
Peoples' expectations have changed in many fields and/or regions, and there's nothing more wrong with that than expecting a flush toilet in a city.

You don't have to like his writing, but he's a renowned author with real skills.

And for $500 you can buy an almost top-of-the-line smart phone as well, or two PS3s.
The price-point issue isn't relevant to the difference between PC gaming and handheld gaming attitudes.

Sorry for the double-reply, but since when are "studying audio" and "having excellent hearing" not orthogonal?
