  2. Unified Codebase for Apple on Adobe To Launch Photoshop for iPad in Strategy Shift (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    Sounds like Adobe is jumping early into the game of going unified for their codebase for IOS and OSX. https://www.theverge.com/2018/...

  3. Re: Samsung tv watches you on Samsung Pushes Its 4K/HDR TV Service in Europe (4k.com) · · Score: 1

    FYI some of the TV's have been known to automatically connect to open wifi to transmit information back to the mothership.

  4. I feel like this is an onion story that WSJ picked up accidentally.

  5. Re:I don't get it... but maybe I'm not supposed to on Don't Call Switch a Tablet, Also It's Not Here To Oust the 3DS, Says Nintendo (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    You could actually get "mode 7" effects on the Genesis there was just no hardware support for it so everything had to be done on the software side.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
    The Mega Drive/Genesis has no hardware-native feature comparable to Mode 7, though the Mega CD/Sega CD and 32X peripherals add such a feature. However, as in Tales of Phantasia and Star Ocean's sprite effect add-ins, some comparable technical feats were programmed entirely in software, seen in games such as Dick Vitale's "Awesome Baby" College Hoops and Zero Tolerance.

  6. Can you honestly expect to not see extreme comments on a political article?

  11. Re:The average price of a new car on Tesla Receives 115,000 Model 3 Preorders Worth $115 Million In 24 Hours (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    Kinda maybe. Tesla introduced the base model at $33,560, with the top of the line going for almost double that. The average per the link will be about $42k. You can get many gas powered vehicles for $33k +/- loaded with features. Still good job on Tesla for pushing into the future. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/...

  15. Re:Pick based on the games you want: on Ask Slashdot: Xbox One Or PlayStation 4? · · Score: 1

    I have to disagree on the PS+. There have been some great 'free games' that more then make up for the annual fee.

  16. They are better alternatives if you want a wider selection of programming. That is the key. Believe me though I am no pay tv loyalist been cord free for a while now. It does make it kind of interesting finding specific shows you are interested in legally that is.

  17. I more so took it as security has been obviously lax if someone is able to get in and vandalize. What was screwed with that we cannot see right off the bat?

  18. Re:They don't need a console, per se on Nintendo's New System Likely a Console/Portable Hybrid (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    PlaystationTV is a horrible little box. Streaming 30 feet away over wifi is just bad. Might work better for wired but didn't give it a chance. Hopefully they will come out with some new hardware soon.

  19. Re:Superfish "bug" ?!?! on Lizard Squad Claims Attack On Lenovo Days After Superfish · · Score: 4, Funny

    I would guess they are using bug in the verb sense, to "conceal a miniature microphone in (a room or telephone) in order to monitor or record someone's conversations.".

    This is the default state for all new **WINDOWS ** laptops. Effectively this is their 'pre usable' mode of operation.

    Possibly up here... http://www.adn.com/article/201... Independent gubernatorial candidate Bill Walker held a slim lead over incumbent Republican Gov. Sean Parnell in Tuesday’s general election, but the outcome was far from certain even as the last of the state’s far-flung precincts reported their tallies. ..... If Walker holds his lead, he and Mallott would make Alaska history by becoming the first nonpartisan ticket elected to the state’s top executive offices.
