Comment Maybe I'll go Android (Score 2) 144

I find browsing on the vendor built in browsers to be TERRIBLE. All the adds and crap flying around is twice as bad on a little tablet or phone because it is too easy to misclick. And browsing is already slower b/c of all the ads loading, it just ruins the experience for me.

Thank GOD for Firefox and the tweaks you can apply with 3rd party pieces. LOVE IT and I will NEVER change to something else.

Comment What's in the best interest of the lawyer? (Score 1) 871

He wants everybody to "not talk to the police" so he'll get more business. Seems pretty clear to me.

Of course if you are some stupid criminal, you don't want to talk to the police. And if enough innocent people are stupid enough to think that they should never talk to the police, it certainly makes the police's job harder while making the criminal representing lawyer's job easier. "What'd you say office, my client wouldn't talk to you and it looked suspicious? Well ever since that cool youtube video, 60% of innocent people don't talk to cops either!"

Yeah, basically avoid being a criminal and you don't have much to worry about. Lawyers that represent criminals are not people to trust OK... they aren't a bunch of free information loving computer people on the internet. Far from it.

Comment Warcraft 1 to Starcraft 2 (Score 1) 109

If there is one thing to bring to Starcraft 2 from Warcraft 1, what would it be? I'm thinking along the lines of an ability, a type of unit that doesn't exist anymore, a simplified or more complex resource management, a slower game pace to allow more unit control instead of deathball vs. deathball.. that sort of thing.

Comment Re:Really, Sharks and sunken ships? (Score 1) 22

This scientist understands the emotion that moves people. While I am very much concerned with the chemistry of the oceans, if it weren't for things like the animals (sharks) and creepy ghost ship stories (humans being a part of the ocean historically) nobody would much care about the ocean including myself.

And then you go on about future for whales. What, do whales deserve attention but not sharks? I guess I just do not follow your train of thought here.

Comment Simple Problem (Score 1) 814

Have you ever used a fingerprint scanner for a PC? It takes 3 tries often enough, and you have to move slowly and press at an exact angle and pressure.

Pretty sure a common problem with these guns is people don't feel safe if their gun takes 20 seconds to recognize you are yourself. If you buy a gun to shoot a badguy who pops out of the shadows, or a deer that suddenly appears from behind a bush, I bet 20 seconds is a lifetime too long.
