Apparently I totally misread your post. Even still, I don't entirely agree. Things like that, you should -never- assume are available. Sure, he might be connected to the "web" - but what happens if his gateway is not operable? What happens if the remote end is not operable? etc.
Makes sense, but I would have expected something so popular to attract an artist or two. Even still, you don't have to be an artist to generate tiling textures large enough to not see the individual pixels/through/ the MIPing
It probably uses a class that requires no drivers.
Every new thumbdrive out there doesn't need a new driver, and they manage with new VID/PIDs all the time... because they all flag themselves in the Mass Storage class.
... nope. Buried in the link says they kept the form factor compatible... bah. If you worry about shield compatibility then just sell a cheap shield adapter and fix the damn design!

UV is responsible for much of the fading, but heat will also cause a problem.
Using a CDRW/DVDRW would likely give you a better lifespan, as those use a phase-change mechanism vs melting a 'dye'
Yes, and there's more to that quote than you might think.
"Playing" implies that you are attempting to win something, like a competition or test of skill. You can experience without "playing."
Crap. ok, this is less organized than I was thinking. Wrong vid. But still, my point stands eh?
THIS is the one I was looking for.
It's irritating that this guy loves his third-person camera. Nobody ever uses it except him it seems.
They should redo X-Wing, TIE, XvT, and X-Wing Alliance. It would sell.
I understand your cynicism but it's not true at all. Just because you aren't in the "top-10" doesn't mean you aren't successful.
Plenty of people have ArmA2 for instance, and that sure as hell is more than "shoot everything that moves." while remaining (primarily) a shooter!
(for those link-shy - it's a youtube recording of an hour long session. voice coms, organizational/'realistic' communication etc)
I don't care about karma.

Gee, what are these "exception" things I keep hearing about? Someone was telling me you can catch them, and then handle them... whatever that means!?
I'm pretty sure that's a bad example. We can all agree that the whole car and any contents would be collateral...
I've seen longer stories about lamer things get published...
It doesn't teach kids to really explore or to think like a scientist.
Yes it does. What it -doesn't- necessarily do is encourage it (nothing says fun like funny colored smoke or explosions, eh?)

You'll notice I used the word "like."
You might want to go look that up and see what it means.
Ah, but if he had done that, he might have been so stuck in with managerial duties etc that Java might not have been born!
I understand the draw of sandboxing, but is there a reason why this game looks like it's running the ID Tech-1 engine? (ie, doom)
Indeed, because your example is of a comparable magnitude!
Some of us find Oracle being in the name to strip all credibility, much like Microsoft.
-1238756 for a totally out of whack reaction to a mistake that doesn't fucking matter.
I think probably the largest "thing" a Star Trek like real-life would have is not space travel, warp fields, transporters etc...
But sensors that can detect "life signs"
One can dream.
That post was bad, and you should feel bad!
It was a mistake, but by the time it was caught at least someone was already printing shields.
Dumb mistake, and now a legacy "feature"

Me too! It's called a computer! Amazing piece of technology, this.
Er, he's suggesting they revert a change they already made retroactively!
Did they finally get rid of that lame spacing goof?
The symptoms described within the article sound very similar to that of a stroke. Seems this supports your idea.
