I love the skin suits.

The LHC is all about large, expensive circles.

Re: Unannounced?

Er.. they would turn up unannounced, the guard would say "you were not announced, go away".

Tickbox one, check.

Then they'd rotate an auditor in as a new member of staff and get them to report on the other tick boxes.

Re: What OS will run on it ?

It will* be a streaming platform, like OnLine.. so any. Moble, Linux, anything the client will run on.

Imagine being able to play footie manager 2012 on your tablet.

Imagine playing skyrim with your saves while you're visiting your mum.

I always wanted Steam to hook up with OnLive, this will probably be even better

* - might

Re: Reading is Zombie H.Q. all the time, everyday

I hail from this locale.

I can confirm the reports.

When I come home drunk after being in the pub with my friends I like to play some games.

Not to mention a lot of users are probably below drinking age, and not much else to do on cold winter nights.

But thank's anyway.

Is that Rhyd from CS by the way? If so, alright mate! If not.. I er, hope you're having a lovely day.

These ones clearly aren't superior. I frequently find them flying into trees/mountains, making no progress. Seems direction facing and velocity are not linked in the AI. So it thinks "I'm flying east!" but its body actually makes it fly west.

When they die they fly off at warp speed to the horizon too. If it weren't such a brilliant game otherwise then, strangely, I wouldn't mind so much. But being brought our of immersion to try to aim an arrow directly in the to rapidly approaching rectum of a flying, fire-breathing reptile..

Mine continued to fly around whilst technically dead. Then warped off into a mountain. I chased it to find it back at half health. "Killed" it again. If flew backwards at about Mach 1 and never returned.

Dragons were fine for me last week.

THe headline makes it sound like it reduces current rubbish, but it actually just prevents itself from being rubbish in future.

Seems like more hassle than a small rocket to push it out of orbit instead of hacking around in orbit for weeks while a giant sail slows it down.

The sail is presumably nowhere near strong enough to stop high-speed debris.

I suppose if it is pre-accelerated to the debris-in-question's speed and then gets n front of it and deploys sail the interaction could be gentle enough for sail to survive. More likely to send sail-sat spinning off and colliding with other junk though.

My tuppence.

If one part of an instruction manual said to me "sorry, the last 5 pages were just an analogy so you could understand what we meant, undo everything you just did and start again. The rest is true WE PROMISE"

I would not continue reading or believing.

Just saying.

Someone should really warn him that SSDs have limited read/write cycles. If he keeps reinstalling everything he'll be left with nothing*.

*I've never actually seen/heard this occur, yet.

Just a little heads up - these people don't want to be rich beyond imagining. They want to stop banks being irresponsible, wasting taxpayers money and spiralling us into another greed-fuelled recession.

Protesting is the only method left to "go out and do" that.

The protest might not achieve its core aim - but it can raise awareness and stop people thinking they can do nothing to influence the system that supposedly works "for us" (but is most definitely funded by us)

If I had to choose between more protesters or more bankers. I'll take the protesters thanks. One protester fucking up means a tent burns down. One banker fucking up can bring down all of goddamned "civilisation".

I'm not even going to go near the Arab Spring. People rebelling against oppressive governments. Pretty much the definition of "going out there and doing it".

"Under the MC Hammer"

Welcome to accidental porno territory.

We just started using Google Apps to work collaboratively, I'm far more excited bout a spreadsheet than a mere developer should be. The days of asking people to close a shared xls file are over, thank fuck. Much easier to use than the bloody pissing Ribbon too.

"By Christmas we'll track you in even more ways! Ho Ho Ho" - there, fixed it for both of you

My first well planned fortress.. mined one square too deep and everyone got flushed outside by cave crocs, only to rush into a large goblin/troll siege. Watching my last military dwarf single handedly kill 3 trolls was a wonderful sight. Before the got injured, ran off and cried in a corner til he bled to death while the children were butchered all around him. Epic.

I can concur that a majority of the female users are in fact "offish". Thair loss. Plenty MORE fish in the sea.

etc. etc.

Let us not forget: Apple started this blocking nonsense. Admittedly the Samsung tablet does look just like an iPad, but the mobiles are all being blocked on spurious terms.

Here's hoping ait all blows over soon and we can get back to using our consumer power to determine what gets bought and what doesn't.

Could it be, perhaps, that you;re the wrong distance away? Or struggling against the 3d effect?

At first I found my Evo 3D uncomfortable to view 3D in but as I got better at using the camera and knowing how far to hold it form my face to get the best view of the parralax, it works a treat. All about the sweet spot.

The file format is simple enough (2 side by side pictures), I struggle to imagine competition using more obscure formats, so hopefully 3D sharing will be better in future.

I've replaced Sense with a selection of Launchers to enable 5 column icons etc. No issues with paint flaking, dropped it several times and no damage yet.

It is heavier and less glamorous looking than the SonyEric Androids, but the 3D gimmick is fun to play with.

3D is the only reason to go for this phone, as such, I wouldn't recommend it over a Sensation or Desire HD.
