Fascinating! Next year, i will throw one for myself and only invite the neighborhood dogs so we can play poker and discuss our squirrel chasing stories! My human friends are all having babies these days so it gets annoying right quick.

Amazon's attempt to sabotage sales for specific book publishers is getting just getting plain silly.

That's nothing. My password is p@$$w#rd. Like anyone would ever guess that...

... twenty years, you say...

For anyone who's not sure how this works, here's a quick primer (source: I work in game development):

When you make a big, open-world style game like Destiny, there's a lot of stuff that goes into what is essentially pre-visualization.

Employees aren't interchangeable. When the maps are done being designed, that doesn't mean the coding is. Or the weapon balance. Or the enemy AI. A common complaint when patches roll out is "Oh!

This is the kind of stuff that turns me away from MMO's. I think its great that people are having fun, but I couldn't do it myself. Sitting there shooting at a cave for hours just to get better gear to shoot at that cave some more sounds really off putting to me.

When i worked at EA, this trailer was discussed at least twice a weak. Without fail.

That reminds me of this, back in 09

So awesome!

Sending ping requests, although benign... in IPv4, is only surface data.... there's A LOT more connected devices than this by far. How/why? IP routing alone because of limited IP addresses in IPv4 you can have many thousands of devices behind a single IP address which all can access the net some of which can be very…

Amazing - that car was actually using a signal whilst making a lane change.

I liked Remember Me a whole lot.

i kinda liked Remember Me.

Modern Warfare 2's No Russian level. It's the first time playing a video game where I had to just pause and put my controller down for a few minutes and think about why I pressed the trigger when the others opened fire.
