No, not a car analogy. Just cars.

Will this help make it so I can drive home in the evening without damn near going blind from the sun's reflection on every rear windshield of every car in front of me?

I can't believe that all these years later we've made cars that can park and even drive themselves but we can't make a windshield that won't nearly blind other drivers twice a day.

Or, for that matter, why don't we have some freaking intelligent sunshades on cars instead of that flappy thing from 1940 still hanging there with the only apparent purpose being "key storage movie prop."

Face tracking + GPS = knowing the exact position of the sun and the exact angle its light should be coming from to enter your eyes. Now take that middle layer of glass in a windshield and make it possible to darken segments of it by use of electrical current or something and make a car that can auto-shade that part of the fucking glass so I can see where I'm going without having to hold my hand up like an idiot waving "HI!" to the sun.

Somebody invent this so I can give you my money.

Steve Jobs was many things. A visionary, a leader, a celebrity, and a first class asshole among them.

I don't have anything worthwhile to say, I just thought GNOME should use codenames for each release and release 3 in partiluclar should be GNOME 3: Profit!

While it's refreshing for a CEO to be willing to admit mistaktes, after other recent boneheaded moves this comes across a lot more like: "Hi. My name is Reed Hastings. I have no idea what I'm doing."

So, customers have been clamoring for:

• Retreads & Sequels
• gimmicky 3D (with requisite upcharge @ the box office) tacked on post production
• DRM (Dear movie studios, please make it a PITA to watch purchased content on the device we want when we want!)
• Copyright warnings/propaganda (I'm your customer. Could you please yell STOP THIEF! at me more? kthxbai!)
• Lobbyists (Hey studio exec...you know what we customers would love?! If you purchased a 90yr copyright extension! Decimate the public domain please! That would be totally awesome!)
• ad infinitum...

Please. They are no more interested in giving consumers what they want than Mexican drug cartels are interested in the US legalizing marijuana.

So, any plans to do more with myouterspace.com? It seemed like a cool idea when it first started but it just seems to have gone nowhere. What more can be done to get it more active and useful for creative types?

LOL! How much time did you spend on that?! Nicely done!

There is absolutely nothing in the OP to suggest any sort of humor. It received four insightful mods, and not a single funny mod, so it's pretty clear that most people who read it agree with me.

THAT'S THE JOKE!

Hey, I always shoot for +5, Funny. But there's no accounting for taste!

The righteous indignation is strong with this one. The way I figure it, upon confronting humor, you have three options: (a) laughing because you think it's funny; (b) not laughing because it's not funny to you; and, (42) taking it seriously, getting offended, lecturing the jokester and proving yourself humorless.

I applaud your choice, good sir! 42 is always the right answer.

Now that's funny. And I know funny. I'm a clownfish.

I wonder what Chrome did that smelled like Win32/Zbot.

Made IE look stupid and fat.

"Oh, Woops! How did that happen?! So sorry about that Google. Totally a mistake. Totally. Our bad, really."

Meanwhile some clueless user just switched back to IE.

Well, yeah. That's a good point. DAMN YOU FACEBOOK!

Is that the one that is/was labeled "Minefield" ? I was running that once upon a time. Chromium has been doing the trick for me lately.
