For the most part you can stop from 45 MPH in under a second and 25 MPH in a quarter of a second. The average human reaction for breaking is 1.5 seconds and I assume this is under fairly ideal circumstances. So I think all this means paying attention makes a lot more difference than speed (assuming you aren't doing 70 on a city street).

Google Glass and everything Nest are useless fucking trash. Even if they somehow becomes useful in the future, they'll never be worth the invasion of privacy and security risks. Take your "IoT" and show up back up your own fucking asses.

You mean the invasion of privacy and security risks by adding a webcam and network capability to a device, like say a cellphone? Maybe we should outlaw wearing cellphones on the hip as they could be recording us!

Are you talking the same features caused by a device with a camera and network capability like a cell phone? We should ban everyone wearing cell phones on their hips because they might be filming us!

Comment Re:And when the "default" is the preferred option? (Score 2) 127

FF and Chrome have had performance and memory issues as of late but for me IE has too many other issues. Tabs locking up on a webpage that lockup all tabs in IE or even Windows. Tabs crashing periodically (this I think is more due to the lousy business apps). Freezing when creating new tabs and all initial attempts at typing an address going into previous tabs (often loading the new page in the old tab). I like Chrome and FF handling of tabs much better.
