All of the Shield products have GameStream. You just need an NVidia 600-series or newer to use it.

Yep. There are three shield devices right now: Shield Portable (clamshell handheld), Shield Tablet, and now this shield tv thing. The tablet and this TV thing both use their wireless controllers (which would presumably work with the Portable too, but why?).

hah, good stuff. Nevermind that Intel isn't mentioned anywhere...

also I think you're mistaken about one thing; NVidia already owns the PC market, so there's not really anywhere for them to go there. This is just them continuing their expansion into other territories.

Except that one of the most important aspects of the Shield is streaming games from your PC.

My problem with the 'kill flash!' movement is that, at least as far as I have seen, there's still no decent authoring environment for HTML5 animated content comparable to the Flash authoring environment. HTML5 is only really approachable by programmers, not content creators.

yep. This was actually part of the basis for Metro on the zune HD and windows phone — white text on black background is a lot more power-efficient for OLED displays.

Thanks. I've been trying to keep an eye on the VR scene, particularly on PC, and this is one I hadn't been sure about.

Is it going to be a PC periph or purely a playstation thing?

"Mods are fucking garbage. Open-source stuff is great if you happen to be an 18-year-old who is WAY TOO OLD to be playing Minecraft. For an 8-year-old, I just want the mods THERE. In the game already. This shouldn't be fucking rocket science."

Statistically, with a high-enough sample everything should come out to a normal distribution — a bell curve. having the same number of low/high outliers sounds to me like they're considering basically everything outside the central ~4sigma (which covers 95% of data points) to be 'unusual'.

I think it's interesting to compare our situation here with that of the doujin culture in japan — doujin works are a HUGE part of their fan culture, and they seem to be free to do a lot more without worry of copyright issues (whether that's by law or by the studios simply being more keen to turn a blind eye) and it…

I have two Ergotron sets, and currently have three arms in use with my monitors in a triangle arrangement (I'm currently based out of a TV stand until my projector is fixed, so my PC can't be in my actual PC room where I'd have a more standard 3x1 arrangement)

Suggesting that a joke about something being dragged out way too far is dragged out way too far... Your line of reasoning is mind-boggling. Being dragged out way too far is the entire point =x

My company supposedly mandates several of these at once in one monstrous 24-line signature. We have the image (thankfully in this case just a fancy Unicode symbol), unenforceable legal threats, and environmental bullshit all in one. As the IT manager in charge of our US branch, I've been told by our Germany…

responding to the text below this. I lament the removal of microSD slots, largely because I *want* to carry a hard drive worth of multimedia around with me. With screens big and vibrant enough to make portable video actually viable, why wouldn't I? The 32GB on my phone isn't nearly enough for me to be able to use it…

Eh yup, it's official. Samsung wouldn't know good device aesthetics if someone drowned them in it.

seems that it's a standard usb/Bluetooth keyboard. so it should work.

This is why I can't use ergonomic keyboards. =/
