Again, that doesn't solve the problem of poor mouse support in console games where the input is setup for analog speeds.
What's wrong with the presets on the adapter I linked exactly? I honestly had a hard time telling the difference between controlling it on a PC verses console, other than the fact that stuff seemed easier to hit on the console version.
Converting mouse input into stick input is far from direct, moving the mouse down is equivalent to pushing down on the stick; not moving the mouse down.
Sure it is. In the case of the adapter I linked. Plug in adapter, choose preset included with adapter, go.
If you want an example of why this is a bad idea try playing Halo 2 PC.
If these guys are so dangerous, why not just keep them under surveillance?
You're making the assumption that isn't happening currently, the issue is that the intelligence agencies do not want to reveal the sources of information to the public.
What's the sentencing range for serious crimes like rape, aggravated assault, attempted murder, or causing serious bodily harm, etc?
From what I have observed here in the UK, there is a very large disparity between sex of the person. Women tend to get off a lot of things easily, such as raping a child? 30 days. A man, using the exact same excuses? 60 years.
I mean do people get life for causing serious injury in the UK?
Circumstances always apply from what I have seen. It seems if it is your first offence in anything serious (beyond petty shoplifting, being drunk etc,), it not likely you would have a lifetime on anything.
I'd rather take the risk that innocent people suffer through terrorism than that we remove the safeties and balances of justice.
Removing safeties and balances of justice wouldn't even require a court or judge just have the target disappear.
If these individuals are that dangerous then court orders for ubiquitous surveillance will be trivial
I am assuming since you made such a factual statement, that you have extensive personal experience in the matter of employing the use of ubiquitous surveillance to detect terrorists.
that will provide the evidence of wrongdoing that can be prosecuted in open court.
I honestly can't think of any terrorism cases in open courts (since the 80s, I don't really know much of court cases before then) that didn't make use of surveillance that went beyond ubiquitous capabilities to make a case.
the more reasons you can think of to make this secret, the more reasons there are to make it public. It's the wonderful irony of the whole thing.
So, what's your 'reason' to counter:
Intelligence agency won't prosecute in an open court in order to protect valuable intelligence and the terrorists are freed and commit some horrendous act against many innocent people.

And in the last 20 years that I have you know... actually been running Linux, I still can't actually reliably decide to install Linux on a machine and have it work.
You sound like those two secretaries whom had 20 years experience in computers couldn't use their computers when I upped the resolution of the desktop from 800x600 to 1024x768 so they could use certain websites.
I still can't reliably upgrade my kernel, and have X functionality survive the reboot.
I still can.
The fact that I have to, in 20-fucking-14 is a joke.
We all hang out and smoke pot together, work on recreational software/hardware projects some private some public, some open source some closed.
Cool story, bro.

I think you misunderstand the concept of a stable ABI.
I said API, not ABI. API was also mentioned which I then quoted and directly countered. I did not disagree that the ABI was prone to change.
Windows can use many classes of drivers between Windows 2000, XP, Vista, 7, 8 and 8.1.
Windows has many drivers that have broken between Windows 2000, XP, Vista, 7, 8, 8.1 and various service packs despite this claim of yours.
"We don't want to be held back" is a fucking cop out.
It seems to be working well for GNU/Linux when you compare them against other opensource operating systems like FreeBSD etc.
FreeBSD both ensure ABI compatibility within a major release (not for drivers, but user software) and on the driver front can (could? "project evil") make use of Windows NDIS network drivers.
And you can use solutions like NDISwrapper on Linux to do the same thing. I'm not really seeing a problem.
Of course there's the argument that some people do not want binary drivers at all.
Indeed.
Good luck with that.
I wish them good luck with that too.
We've been there for the past 20 years, and the problem isn't getting any better.
Except in the last 20 years, we have seen the creation of open hardware organisations, certain manufacturers (such as those in the graphic card industry) actively open sourcing and contributing work. I'm not really sure how you're measuring better, but that seems better from everything being 100% proprietary as it was in the early 90s.

You make it sound like plugging in an adapter is so difficult.
