Fuck looting, I'd be stealing a submarine somehow, someway. And lots of pallets of Ensure.

Meh, while it would suck to have just purchased a shiny new Nokia 900, 7.8 will last them at least a year, and the main reason you'd upgrade is a better display/PureView camera/NFC anyway. Which means no amount of software updates would keep you on your current platform anyway. I'm holding on to my Trophy until a…

I mostly agree with this stuff. What I would really like to see is an efficient way of getting to a contact. Right now, you have to go to the People hub, swipe right a few times to "all", click search, then start pecking out the names. I'd like to see something right from the main tile screen where you can start…

The last thing my personal life and career need is inspiration to play Civ again. If I fall off the wagon, nobody will see me for a week, maybe three.

Wonder if Windows RT and WP8 will merge...

It's increasingly an excuse to have crappy special effects and cheap post production. At some point it just becomes tiring and irritating when the camera is waving around like a loon.

Interesting. I would have thought it would be partly due to lifestyle changes too. Morbidly obese person are probably more likely to be shut-ins, once they get thinner they would tend to get out and socialize more and develop a drinking problem. Yeah I know this comment is awful science.

I actually think this may drive sales of desktops - I'll dump my iPad so the surface will be my laptop/tablet, but since it has a smaller screen it just reinforces getting a large screen desktop AIO. With all my crap syncing through skydrive.

Just curious - why not consider an 8-core Sandy Bridge Xeon CPU with dual proc motherboard? Are those not working with hackintoshed OSX yet? Many people wanting a Mac Pro have been wanting the more efficient Ivy Bridge core, USB3, SATA3, and Thunderbolt. With this config you can get at least USB3 and SATA3, and Sandy…

Typically, medical software that is actually used for measuring or diagnosis has a higher regulatory standard, moving from a Class I device to a Class II. The various regulatory systems across the world (FDA in the US, CE in Europe, Shonin in Japan, etc) all require some sort of validation process - this could be…

The time thing is huge. At some point, I don't even know when, I went from having no money but lots of time, to money and no time whatsoever. Almost every activity in my life now is time-limited, not money limited.

It's hard to know what an ultra-advanced civilization might need for energy, and how they would produce it. They might extract it from other dimensions yet undiscovered. They might harness some yet unknown force in the universe. Or they might build small fusion reactors implanted in each being rather than use a single…

Damn Swedes. If it was truly something amazing, they would have swam in the damn "egg shaped" hole to figure out what it is. Why announce a find that you don't know what it is yet? Would have just take a few more dives and some samples to figure out. They are probably trying to extract some cash before the whole thing…

You know, maybe I'm against the grain here but I'm not sure people will immediately resort to barbarism in the apocalypse. Most of human history was spent without technological comfort and most lives were spent in a world of scarcity on the verge of starvation and annihilation by competing tribes. People weren't…

I agree, it's possible that the universe is just a bunch of stuff that happens for no particular reason. I don't like that idea, but what would be even worse is if it's just a bunch of stuff that happens AND those events were never observed or contemplated - entire galaxies born and died over the course of billions of…

I'm really starting to think that overly political people are simply less intelligent and more emotionally unstable than normal people. To blather on about this like it's the crime of the century, as if somewhere some democrat would never do the same thing, is just, well, dumb.

That's all true and great, but 1080p monitors are cheap. As long as people are cheap, and there are people who simply check email, surf, and want to play xbox on it, then 27" 1080p will be an option. I bought a Lenovo A720, and I personally hate the screen (should have bought the new Dell AIO but it wasn't out when I…

This may be unscientific, but I just can't imagine that we would be the only life capable of contemplating or observing it all. What would be the point of the universe if it was a bunch of random stuff that happened for no reason, except that "oh by the way some bags of water in one idiotic and tiny solar system asked…

I partially agree - I wouldn't want to work on one all day, but for the occasional mail and web surfacing, while doubling as a TV, it's fine.
