A phone form factor device that can run a full desktop OS, or something close to it. Canonical was getting close with Ubuntu Touch but that's essentially dead now. I don't want a gimped version of Windows like I'd get with Co

A desktop/mobile convergence phone is my dream. I'd buy one in a heartbeat.

7 years later and I still miss the slide out keyboard on the original Droid. I've never gotten used to software keyboards and they're an almost daily source of frustration.

I've pretty much given up on mobile gaming. People just aren't willing to pay money for a quality game. These days if I play a game on my phone or tablet it's usually a board game (one of the few genres that's mostly fre

I may be biased as I live in an area where the AWD in the WRX is especially useful in the winter but I would take the WRX over the BRZ in the article any day.

>And there should be limits on price gouging. It makes no sense to allow airlines to charge an astronomical fare just because a flight is nearly full, and a dirt-cheap fare for an advance booking. This would just result in higher (probab

Based on the circumstances (he wasn't a danger to anyone or acting out in any unreasonable way) the better choice probably would have been to just leave him be. He may not have had a legal "right" to be on the plane and Unite

It was pretty cool seeing unrelated communities come together. The Miami Dolphins subreddit had a small logo next to the Cubs subreddit logo and we had an agreement to help each other out.

I put down Red Mars around 2/3rds of the way through a few years ago for the same reasons. Maybe I'll give it another shot.

The in-game job management interface effectively becomes unusable once your fortress reaches a certain size. It requires a third party program to manage jobs without wanting to tear your hair out.

Not quite, the 10mm existed prior to the FBI selecting it as their cartridge of choice. After determining the recoil was a little excessive for some of their agents they put out a request to manufacturers for something similar but with a li

Obama has done very little (anything?) to support whistleblowers or an open and transparent government in the eight years he has been President. It's hard not to be skeptical of such an uncharacteristic move days before he's set t

How does it follow to hold manufacturers responsible for that crime? They legally manufactured a rifle. That rifle was legally sold to a distributor. That distributor legally sold the rifle to a retail store. That store legally sold the rif

I would guess some people who had a profitable side project turned it into their primary source of income. Someone making $1000 a month from a side project can't afford to quit their day job. Someone making $10k a month from a side pro

It seems like every major Firefox release I have to seek out an add-on to undo a change they made. Not all changes are bad, but so often they just seem completely unnecessary.

Nintendo has an advantage in that their hardware is generally cheaper than the competition so they don't have to muck around with software based backwards compatibility. They just put the hardware from the old console inside the new on

No kidding. I sold mine shortly after and because of the removal of OtherOS. I certainly don't have the serial number or proof that I used OtherOS (who possibly could?).

Seriously. I was only ever a high school athlete but even then I was eating ~3500 calories a day and maintaining weight. At 1200 calories a day you could be mostly sedentary and still likely lose several pounds a week.

I feel like we are in a golden age of PC gaming right now. Genres completely abandoned by AAA developers ages ago are seeing a resurgence thanks to crowdsourcing. Space sims have been all but dead since Freelancer in 2003 but now there are
