Doesn't include any of the Flightposite family; list is invalid.

That's not really a fair appraisal, though... maybe in the 'island galaxy' days, but for the last several decades astronomers have begun to characterise our understanding of the universe as 'in flux.' To wit: the destruction of 'island universe', the understanding of how black holes function and are created, the…

It's hard for me to get excited about this thing. The first-gen Nexus 7 would still be a perfectly satisfactory tablet had Google not absolutely slaughtered its performance with the introduction of 4.2, and then subsequently abandoned it utterly. Ask any user how terrible the current version of Android is on that…

It's both very similar to— and actually less ugly than— the boxes for the first-iteration Nexus 7 and the Nexus 4.

The Nexus program doesn't offer expandable memory. Hasn't for the last six devices (S, S4G, GN/VGN, N7, N4, N10). And it's already been outed as not having expandable memory here, too. Move along, nothing to see here.

I get the reasons why you'd find the plan appealing— after all, data usage given current technology is unlikely to go down any time soon— and I do understand that for some people, Verizon's network is the only one large enough to provide them reliable service.

I don't think I'd pay the unsubsidised price for Verizon phones just to keep unlimited data, particularly when they can still change the terms of your agreement to kill your plan and you'll be left with a phone that can't be used on any other network. They've left a poor loophole open for the time being (and one…

I buy the Nexus each time. So, yearly.

Ah, I see the point you're making now, my bad.

That's what I'm saying, friend. I'm saying it was more a function of time than vastly improved horsepower. Again, to wit: the difference between a 2003 last-gen title (PG2) and a 2005 current-gen title (PGR3) was large, but the difference between a 2005 last-gen title (Forza Motorsport) and a 2005 current-gen title…

PGR3 looked better than PGR2, but not by miles and miles. And most of that had to do with the time elapsed since PGR2 had released. Compared to more recent titles— like Forza 2 (released in 2005 where PGR2 was released in 2003)— PGR3 wasn't so mind-blowing.

Oh, GUN. Man that was one shitty port. But it was still so much fun! Can't really mourn the loss of Neversoft because oh man True Crime NY was a piece of flaming ass, but GUN was seriously underrated.

Your argument is short-sighted and ill considered. Graphics are not the be-all, end-all issue of the next (or any) generation. And storytelling, fuck yeah. But better graphics, like good storytelling, are just one important component of creating a compelling and yes, immersive experience. The same way sound mechanics…

Except that Android users don't have to type anything anymore. They added the feature back in as usual the day after the big upgrade.

I disagree. Yeah, they're silly for taking quality photos... but for adding photos to notes in Keep/Evernote/Any.Do and the like? Pretty dang handy.

Outstanding.

I really couldn't say... I don't have the time to really look into it. I was merely commenting on the author's meaning, not the veracity of the statement. I'd guess, though, that a ten percent increase in luminosity could indeed play havoc with the water on Earth. It is, after all, a very precarious balance that put…

The article is actually stating that the sun will increase in temperature over the next billion years, to the point where water will evaporate and leave our atmosphere. It then continues that later on (much later) it will become a red giant after the fusion process has used up the fuel in the sun's core.

Our sun won't ever make iron. It's too small. Not enough gravity, not enough heat. It won't go far enough down the chain to get to iron. Ours will go red giant rather than supernova.

HOW TALENTED ARE YOU? I always beat people to death before I steal their cars. To do both at the same time is master craft shit.
