If you know the cashier at the store and want to talk to him/her, he/she will have more time to talk to you, now that the costumers go through faster.
That is happening in the culture front, not the technological front.
There is a BIG difference between questionable content and censuring "unpopular" beliefs.
A religius comment like "praised be Allah" isn't the target, spam comments like "prais be Allah, look at this greate app: link" are.
To answer your question, questionable by Googles deffinition, which has noting to do with oppinions and everything to do with automated spam.
"There is no real depth perception in this"
No, however there is a fake one, just like there is a fake depth perception with steroscopic glasses.
Now while the depth perception on a standard screen doesn't fool your eyes, it does fool your brain. At least enough for you to know that your opponent isn't above and to the right of you, but is on the platform in front of you.
Of cause it's all "fake"(like silicone) "a collection of 3D data transposed onto a 2D surface" but there is a 3D perception.
There is a bigger market for computers out there then just the/.'s My mother and farther for example would never figure out how to both assemble a custom pc and get a copy of x86tiger. If they for some reason wanted tiger they would ofcause buy a mac. It's simply easier.
That would be a iHouse legal department. They've just sent out 1! legal notis, not like they're takeing on the European Union or singlehandedly changing US law.
My refering to it being "gecko only" wasn't the actual "effect", more the wording of the styling. I don't know this, but I assume that Safari won't reconize "-moz-opacity:0.4;"
Personally I hate the whole "-moz-" wording, I consider it destroctive to the building of a common standard, if others are going to impliment it they are going to do so with different names simply to get rid of the '-moz-'.
IE will hopefully catch up sometime in the future, or die out.
You can't compare tables to CSS. One is a tag the other is a stylesheet language.
The point is that XHTLM/CSS using tabletags are easier and in many cases better then XHTML/CSS using nested divs styled to apear like the table tags. CSS is *WAY* more intuitive than tables ever were
If you mean that semantic HTML is more intuitive then nonsemantic HTML then you are correct. If you mean that 18layers of nested divs all styled differently to get render correctly in all mayor browsers(From IE to khtml) is more intuitive then a tablelayout, then you are wrong. Both are nonsemantic, tables however can be directly interprited to outline the ideer(A two collom design being the easiest example) whereas two divs nested in another div will tell you nothing of the design.
Using CSS to get around using tables for design isn't in itself "a better way(tm)", but if you want semantic HTML then CSS is pretty much the only way to do it, and still have the content fit a design. However if you just want something to look "the way it should(tm)" then Tabels are still a valid option.
The internet seems to me in itself to be a fixing of something that wasn't broken. If you feel like using the web for nothing but text use Lynx.
Why do you feel you need to filter contents to render stuff in browsers that support all the stuff you don't want? Why not just find a browser that fits your needs?
The problem isn't the content providers, it's your inability to request content to your own specifications.
Gecko has som specific CSS stylings that are fairly usefull but only render in gecko like:
-moz-border-radius:
-moz-border-left-colors:
-moz-opacity:
Can't say I know if they are on the official spec for CSS2 or CSS3 but I would like to see gecko implementing stuff in a more nonbrowserspecific way. I don't think these stylings will ever become standart with that syntax.
And divs are ment to mark divisions, not be a universal styling element.
The point of CSS is to seperate the design from the underlying HTML, not just replace tables with a mess of nested divs.
Divs are ofcause usefull to seperate different parts of the site like menues and content, but to many use several nested divs to make borders, backgrounds and position elements "just right" ending up with code like this for menues:
So instead of using CSS to improve the HTML, they use it to fuck it even more up. Now having effectively removed even the slightly understandeble table layout, and replaced it with HTML that only looks right when you have the magic Stylesheet that it was designed for.
Now that CSS has caught on, people need to push semantic HTML using divs for everything just isn't right.
Extremely aggressive adds I hope the future will bring adds like in Diamond Age. Whith holographic projections rushing at you if you don't pay enough attention. I can just picture a walk in the city at night being pounded by Godzilla because you didn't notice the pringles add. And ofcause in the addcrowed streets the holograms would battle each other for your attention endlessly, the only escape being closing your eyes and making a run for it.
Sure I can.
Ofcause if you want it to be the same quality as Logitech og Microsoft I suppose you could clue som cardbord onto the side so you'r fingers will rest in an uncomftable position. Copperback will most likely be better then or at the very least as good as the G5/7's.
Eyetrackers Aren't going to be big for gaming, it's to slow and annoying. Most gamers(FPS) don't keep their eyes on the maker because they need to keep track of what's happening.
With the splitsecond aiming they don't even really register their marker over the head of an opponent, they just "twitch" and shoot.
You won't be able to reproduce this in a eyetracker. Gamers don't use an imprecise limb for movement, they use a very precise limb for movement. Calling it imprecise just shows that you aren't a gamer.
Logitech already has potential for this with the numpad in their DiNovo line. As far as I know however they don't use it for anything other then showing currently playing and "hello -user-" when it connects. It's kind of a waste.
The first rule of gaming: Look at the screen not the keyboard.
However with logitechs new brilliant design you would be able to see your health decresing while you'r looking the the key you program to run your move forward macro.
You're one of the idiots who askes the cop "Why aren't you out hunting serial killers?" When you get stoped right?
Cops are put on traffic patrol to............... Partrol traffic. Sure they could just explain to the public that traffic won't be patroled until all crime is solved, but how do you think that would go over?
The cops aren't given a choice between patroling traffic and watching over the local bank, they have to be everywhere.
I predict about the same money for anti-terrorism, at lot more mediacoverage of whatever that money is being used for and a HUGHE cash infushion for oilcompanies.
No.
some are saying that thereIS DRM in the development boxes.
Others are now saying that There IS DRM in the development boxes, but it won't be in the final mactels.
Simple, everyone is getting the same development boxes, the cd's are also exactly alike(checked on several via md5) so there isn't even a uniqe id.
People look at TFP it's a 0button mouse not at 2button mouse.
They are moving in the wrong direction!
On that not I wager that Apple will populice capacitive sensors in mice(Yes logitech has been there with their laptop mouse scrollpad, but Apple has perfected the use).

You mean like QuakeIII does on my regular screen?
