No yeh dope.
That's what switches the analogue *joysticks* on and off, a standard feature of Ps2 controllers. Read my original post (not even TFA) - I quote him as saying that he implemented the *buttons* in such a way that the analogue functionality was disabled. And he goes on to say how useless analogue buttons were in the first place.
I was countering this assertion by citing two very popular games that use this feature. Pay attention boy.
Yep. You can feather your throttle on the starting line in GT to get a better start (this was were I first noticed it and yes, I was as surprised as you are now) and in pro-ev if you just hammer the button when taking a shot your ball will just head skywards - just like in real life, lightly does it.
... Doing this doesn't allow the buttons themselves to have analog function anymore, just on/off... What? You didn't know they were analog? They are! No, really! VERY useful you know!
Sarcasm drip drip.
This guy's gonna have a great time at the starting line in Gran Turismo or when he's taking a shot on goal in Pro-evolution socccer! Clearly not a gamer.
A kip is something like that country you live in. I'm not just USA-bashing, went there, worked for a while, hated it, came back. Yes, I'd prefer to be in Ireland thanks very much. Less language fascists here. And oh, you're american, you dont speak english english, you speak american english - which I could speak (or type even) too should I want people to think I'm a total Amadan hoor.
Even the Kip that I live in (Ireland) has got some of that stuff: Good cellphone coverage (well dear tho there is pay as u go), informative traffic-lights (in Dublin anyway), Parking data (Dublin again), and erm, that's about it then. DSL and anything telecom related's feckin dear though - twice the price (at least) of Northern Ireland. and groceries. And going out for a few pints. Actually feck it. Its just a kip.
In-car networks are fine - they've been used for ages. CAN (controller area network) are used not just for non-critical systems but for all sorts of things like braking, gears and the rest, and this is what its designed for. I'm just wondering whether (as it seems above), 1394 is being used for all this too. CAN doesn't have the bandwidth for streaming video etc but do you want to put your life in the hands of a multimedia-protocol when you're bootin down the road (Not much use having Ally MacBeal playing as you're careering into a wall)? Or have I got this all wrong? I now that the CAN spec allows for flexibility in the physical network layer and upper layers? Is this a case of both standards being used but operating on different levels (doubtful though, since CAN imposes data-rate constraints)? Or is there two systems? The critical network and the frivolous network? Or is it just that 1394 matches CAN for reliability, stability, simplicity...

you can have bit-endianness too.
Okay. Humour can get lost in the translation to text. Beware the ambiguity of inferrence. Good luck.
Ever see corn come out the other end?

I worked in Nordstrom a while ago. As far as I remember, they'd do this.

Or more like comparing the usefulness of two programs based on the number of lines of code.
