How accurate is it, out of curiosity? And are there standard of intoxication, like there are for BAC?

Ok, just tried it, and you're right, it does the same thing as clicking any of the grey text buttons. So? The black bar is supposed to be the constant across all Google products, and people would flip out if the standard buttons went away (like your opinion about search tools being hidden behind a button now). Yes,…

For the Glass part, I think people really just need to wait. Yes, the initial video may have given everyone a feeling of HOLY SHIT I WANT THAT, and subsequent presentations of Glass have only really shown off the camera, but keep in mind that that's a somewhat significant innovation on its own: a tiny piece of…

I'm not the one whining, the folks that are using Apple maps are. I personally don't give a whit one way or the other, I'm just pointing out reality: Apple changed something, it didn't work for everyone, and now they're scrambling to fix it.

Gravity, that cheeky bastard. Owes me a fiver, he does.

Apparently not, because there are enough problems with it that Cook himself had apologized for, and Apple went out of their way to recommend alternative map applications. That is not a solution, that's a workaround. That's a cop-out. That's basically saying, "We fucked up, but we explicitly don't want you to use our…

How about sourcing map data that already exists, and not depending on users to fill in spots, especially since the users have already paid for and gotten used to it.

Wave: Yep

Were it anyone besides your family, I'd say the correct approach is a polite "fuck you" and move on. Being family, there's never a solid moving on, and you can't really say that to them anyways. Not an enviable position.

So what I'm seeing here is that you're complaining about the 29-pixel-high black bar that provides quick access to the most-used products that Google offers, and you're saying it drops productivity?

Well, I happen to be in Maryland, so that puts the kibosh to that plan. But, feel free to add me on XBL. Gamertag: Deactivator2

No, its more along the lines of the restaurant putting out a notice cautioning that they've changed their recipe, and you should still try it, but if you don't think you'll like it, then please have something else on the menu (go see another movie).

Yeah, but its mutual. Anyways, back to games...

That wasn't entirely a soccer riot, that was the remnants of a people vs government war that had just concluded. Those two teams (a government-sponsored team and a "people" team) have always had their issues, but they are politically charged, not because of the sport, like, for example, in Vancouver with the NHL stuff…

HA! Joke's on you, I just got separated! Ha ha! Ha! Ha... ha... *sobs quietly in corner*

Because one perfectly good flesh-and-blood hand and one lightweight, super-strong carbon-fiber hand that could probably punch through your face with no repercussion beats two perfectly good flesh-and-blood hands :D

For some reason, the only thing that comes to mind now is "Just spray some Windex on it."

Unfortunately, nothing materializes in your breath from marijuana usage. It has to be detected through a urine or blood test, and results typically take days to return (not to actually test, just as a function of backlog, etc).

I would have quite a time trying to pronounce that last bit in front of a mirror, let alone on camera in front of a live audience...
