With the given set, /M | [TN]|B/ is suboptimal, but could be / [TMN]|B/ But that (and the article) leaves out the subtitle for Star Trek 1: "The Motion Picture". For that, Randall's original

The actual IE for Mac has died long ago and was barely related to IE for Windows anyway. If you mean current versions, try something like Saucelabs interactive sessions. They offer many different OS/browser combinations in VMs and even

I'll grant you that, but why would such a robot need to actually look human? Legs can be useful in a few corner cases, but 3 or 4 of them would be more stable, or maybe just a compact set of wheels. Why does a robot need a face, or an

Almost Human has been on my list of things to watch, I suppose I should move it up a notch. The industrial market will undoubtedly be served first by this (and Google's probably carefully avoiding any hint of what I suggested -- heck,

I wonder how long it will be before the sex industry catches on. Surely realistic and anatomically correct androids are preferable to blow-up dolls are what have you... even Star Trek mentioned the issue. It might seem flippant, but I genui

The goverment is very, very good at bad PR. I don't think any institution in the world is as good at making people (who didn't previously care) hate them as the US govt is. Self-fulfilling prophecies, in a way. They think everbody

So... they're actually not writing drivers for the hardware, but for the interface provided by your blob. I'm not sure I agree with the original statement, but I don't think your argument holds entirely.

That's also listed in the comments for the bug, as well as some (contrived) examples as to when it wouldn't work. Surprising it hasn't been fixed, considering how simple the true fix is.

The current release versions of Chrome (27) and Firefox (21). Both auto-updated. Since the flicker is the same in different browsers, it may be more of an OS or graphics driver thing.
