"Gamer" is an unbelievably broad term, akin to an average "reader" age of anyone who reads something. The pdf (can't find any actual study confirming any of that data) sourced on wiki doesn't explain what most of those extremely broad term

I always assumed that it was the level of abstraction required for Android to be able to function on a wide variety of hardware. iOS on the other hand is running on a relatively tiny number of devices with hardware chosen for use by themse

Was hoping they'd talk a bit more about what Mobizy actually does than how neat they think the Nexus 7 is. Our sales reps have been using Kindle Fires and iPads to show marketing materials to clients during inservices as well as their gener

It's ok on my laptop (not touch-based), but the issues really start getting rough if you add a second monitor in. There's no good way that I've figured out yet to move the start screen or any of its' metro apps to the other screen - they'r

I don't see the Windows 8 app store as a competitor to Steam though, in the same way that I don't see the Google Play store as a competitor to Steam. Steam already has a strong community knit directly into the gaming experience that I doub

It's actually harder to string more wires as a new company, because so much is already owned by a few very big players. So you have to buy access to the infrastructure from your competitors before you can even compete with them as an ISP.

Why all the vitriol towards Oracle? Not that I care either way, I don't have any stake in the matter. I just don't have much experience with them outside of limited usage of Java.

Oh wow, Taiwan. I was expecting South Korea.

To ensure this gets the attention it deserves, I'd love to have this feature as well and would be happy to pay for a service like that.

Richard Clark (who had worked for Reagan, Bush Sr., and Clinton) had the right idea of small targeted attacks rather than a widespread military invasion. He even warned the WH about al Qaeda months prior to 9/11, but he got demoted and vil

Does "Google Plus" also cover "G+" and "Google+" and whatever other variation of the name there is? That's probably the last way I'd think of searching for statistics on it. Everything else you listed doesn't have any common aliases.

For low-end gaming to replace flash? Sure, that was inevitable and the writing has been on the wall for the demise of flash for years now.

How's the battery life on the Nexus, and how's the PenTile screen, if I may ask? I've been curious about the controversy around the pentile display, but I haven't physically seen one in my own hands to get my own evaluation of it.

I do barcode scanning on the Amazon app far more than I scan QRs. Handy to be able to check reviews and competing prices while I'm at the store.

Why do people still think that not believing in something must be an active position to take? Atheism and agnosticism are not mutually exclusive, and in fact, most people who identify as one are also the other.

I think I'm at 3 decent pairs of pants. Light, dark, black. Maybe 8-10 dress shirts/polos to go with them in total. Boatload of old tshirts though.
