   It doesn't just remove nuance, the entire framework of the discussion is built on untruths when we start there.

   There's a really old iteration of similar functionality that I think has the potential to be quite a bit superior: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJARrc40imk After researching it, the main problem with the flying pulp

   I'm really bummed out that GTA-V's biz model isn't aligned with the goals of the modding community because the engine and content are just so damn good. The game world is the perfect platform for some excellent modded content

   If you tried to come up with the name of a product like that for a comic book about some evil megacorp, it would be hard to do better than "Corexit".

   I wanted to dislike the change, but I agree, the extra time it allowed for them to dig into how they do what they do was a lot of fun.

   If anything, that article gives an inkling of the infinite multitude of ways to screw it up. It's amazing games work as well as they do.

   I think in the context of all of the media available to us, it's an acceptable style. I appreciate the human touch sometimes. If every news organization adopts that style then it's a problem.

   There's a list of common medications I can't take because of a fairly benign condition I have, which is and has been in my medical records for years. 90% of the time doctors prescribe me things I can't take, even though the i

   The space station is definitely not anywhere close to being self-sustainable nor does it pretend to be.

    If the potato came apart early enough then the drag would increase exponentially and you'd just have potato mist a few meters above ground level.

    Thanks for the link. Cheesy or no, I love these kinds of docs, wish there were more of them out there.

    Interesting. I think Valve's solution is probably the most elegant one I've seen so far: http://www.hizook.com/blog/2015/05/17/valves-lighthouse-trac...

    I've seen videos where somebody tested a gun safe with a similar locking device and it proved to be pretty resilient to that type of attack. I think they finally got it open using a cast mould of his print but it required having physic

    Or don't roll out a new revenue model that you can't reasonably transition to because it isn't compatible.

    The difference is it's invasive. You couldn't shine a flashlight up people's skirts.

    If somebody only takes a penny from my wallet, they still stole it without my consent. Even if x rays were 100% completely harmless, it still amounts to being searched without my consent.

    Hmm, that's interesting. Comparing the two sets of images, the Segway one certainly looks far less safe that it actually is, I wonder if it fell victim to that gut reaction.

    Only angle we might be missing here, is that people seem to rather enjoy arguing as a pastime.

    Tornado took out my grandfather's farm many years back (At 80-odd years old, he was out on his bulldozer 12 hours later, rebuilding). The tornado pulled the back window out of an old car and deposited it in one piece yards away. Tornad

    I completely agree the UI is pretty bad. The hidden side of it though is that anything you want to do regularly has excellent keyboard support. I don't even use the UI in blender most of the time and there's little to no friction,

    None of the core keyboard shortcuts have changed in years. I'm pretty pragmatic about tools, everybody has a preference and outside of pipeline integration issues it's the speed and quality of the output that matters. For me, what

    They might be able to get away with that with consumers, but a lot of professionals use Windows too, MS would get sued every way to Sunday if they pulled a stunt like that.

    I have ZERO patience for this type of behavior in a product aimed at professionals. I use Win 7 professional to do my work. I have a specific set of software that I use, and no intention of changing anything about a setup that is tuned and

    Par for the course these days. I feel like we are on the verge of an ad revenue bubble collapsing, there's not much more that can be done to make the ads more intrusive unless you get rid of the content altogether. Incidentally, that&#
