USB Overdrive is as close as you'll get to a solution. This is the company that can't even make iTunes usable with 16 years of work.

Apple fundamentally does not understand software. A shame, as the software, really, was their original special sauce with the Mac 128k and beyond. Today, however, the company really doesn't understand how to make, maintain, or market s

Frankly, if yer looking for a portable way to play emulated games and old computer stuff, the nVidia Shield Portable is amazing. It's like someone at nVidia saw all these GP32's and weird handheld emulation devices and said,"

This, coupled with the incredibly mean people on the Internet, I'd expect. Who wants to reach out when everyone's just a jerk all the time? I'm very guilty of this, too. Reddit, Twitter, and other similar forums are cesspools

Yeah, remember, auto-pilot in a plane needs to be 100% reliable, or everyone dies. A car needs to be, I dunno, 80%? Compared to a bad human driver, who still drives every damn day, a computer need only be about 60% reliable to be better. Pe

And it never will be. And that's a good thing. Also, if you don't think DF has polish, you've never played it. The polish is very subtle, but the game is SUPER polished with tons of details you'll miss if you don't

You absolutely do. Open sourcing code is not just throwing a tarball over the wall. It's comments, it's documentation, it's changelogs that go a lot deeper than "fewer children are spawned." When people are reading

Fuck that. The Internet is a thing. The Web is a thing. Both are singular. Both are proper nouns. There's only one, though it may be huge.

No need. Plenty of 3rd party tools. Take a look at the Lazy Newbs Pack: http://lazynewbpack.com/ It contains utilities to do just about everything you feel is lacking, save some major interface overhauls. I agree, the inter

All I will say is: try Hololens, then come back here and tell me it is lacking, dramatically. It's a VERY good device. Surprisingly good. I expected it to suck.

Jut wrong about Hololens. Stuff may be drawn close to your face, but the image is scaled very, very well. It may be drawn up close, but it still looks like it's very far away, way more than 2 meters.

What I'm saying is, Hololens does ALL of those VR/AR things already, and there's not even a slight chance of eye damage involved. I really have trouble envisioning anything that would be lightyears beyond Hololens, but rather

I remember it being mentioned in Wired in the 90's. But then, Westinghouse build a Mech (yes, a battle suit) in the 50's, and they never caught on. Of course, they never put anyone inside the mech because it could have snapped an

Magic Leap is based on super complex tech that draws images right onto your retina. It's the kind of tech that will take them another couple of years to make small enough to package, and possibly another few years to build the tools to

I played with Hololens at Build this week. I believe, after seeing it, using it, and even developing a little with it, that this device is truly revolutionary, and Google is wasting its money in Florida. I shook my head back and forth like

Back in the day, you could escalate a bug to the next patch by emailing steve@mac.com claiming you lost work, or can't get something done. I did this twice, and got a patch both times. Once, they literally patched iMovie over a weekend
