   Microsoft knows the days of strong arm tactics and PC dominance are gone. They know they aren't the king of the hill anymore. You can see it in the way they are handling Surface and Azure, or mishandling in the way of Xbox.

   Beats certainly has one thing going for it in brand recognition: they are the preferred headphone of the professional athlete.

   So, you are arguing that DDT is being banned simply as a means of population control? "WHO actively promoted indoor residual spraying for malaria control until the early 1980s when increased health and environmental concerns surroundin

    Why trade a public health disaster for an environment disaster that will likely lead to a different public health disaster? Current restrictions seem reasonable. "The Stockholm Convention, which took effect in 2004, outlawed several p

    Yeah, agreed. The graphs looked great, but it was difficult to cull important comparisons.

    So how is the accuracy? How many shots will it take you to hit a missile 50 miles away? 100 miles? Parallel vs perpendicular path?

    In the past 5 years, I've had Comcast, Insight, TWC, and FIOS. (TWC bought out my previous ISP, Insight, less than a year ago) By far Comcast was the worst of my experiences.

    This is rather naive. In certain circles yes but by far the majority of people use just their search. So you are saying a vast majority of people don't use gmail, google maps, or youtube. I'd venture to guess a vast majority of

    I've had this thought as well. The good news is that there are millions of creative minds, improving the world, making a dent in the universe. The sad news is that there are billions of people just trying to get by, looking for comfo

    I also look at it the other way: 1% of people have the required atributes (talent, motivation) to produce something that 99% of the population want to consume. It's probably lower in other endevours, e.g., less than 1% of people can pl

    If Valve really wants to compete with consoles, they need a wireless controller. I go back and play the old PS1/2 and Gamecube occasionally, and the toughest adjustment is going back to a wired controller.

    My progression over the last 15 years has gone Winamp, Foobar, MediaMonkey, itunes, Spotify. I keep itunes around just for CD ripping and ipod syncing, but I'd like to abandon it altogether.

    Yep. Windows 8 isn't very popular amongst gamers. Also, remember Steam in 2003? It wasn't great, but Valve stuck with it and kept making it iterativly better. Also, nowadays most people can get their day to day functionality o

    There are lots of little clever details like this. You might have also noticed that in Ornstein and Smough's chamber there are two elevators: a large one (for Smough) and a small one (for Ornstein).

    there seems to be a lot of misplaced praise out there for the trial-and-error, but this part of the game really just sloppiness. I have to disagree. I thought the "here is the whole map, figure it out" aspect was brutal but bri

    The worst thing that could happen to Microsoft in the next 10 years is that they become the next IBM. MS is in danger of becoming irrelevant in the consumer electronics space, but they are deeply entrenched in enterprise IT, where they can

    I'm pretty sure licensed dealerships barely break even on new car sales. They make their money on maintenance and used car sales.
