Potentially it can keep going until the size of a transistor is just a few electrons across but as we get closer to that point quantum teleportation becomes more of an issue. This is cool video that explain some basic stuff about transistors and the end of Moore's Law.

Most likely they're not lying. It's not built for advertising. The fact that they will be able to use it for advertising is just incidental. Personally I will not buy a Kinect. If they want to try to sell me a Xbone without a Kinect there may be a chance of me buying it shortly before hell freezes over.

Comment Re:I don't know if Obama planned it this way... (Score 1) 668

With all the small gov't Tea Party blather out there it's nice for Americans to be reminded that gov't is a tool, and one they depend on. I for one don't want to see EPA regulation, anti-slavery and usury laws, OSHA Safety and FDA regulations go away.

Maybe if the shutdown goes on long enough people will start to miss government. But I doubt in the short term that a small number of websites used by a small number of people is going to have any impact on how people view government. In fact the more people will probably think something like "the government shut down and everything is just fine why do we need so much government".

Jonathan Blow is considered the father of the current indie game craze after the success of Braid. Having played Braid it's quite good. The Witness is a 3D rendered game Myst wasn't much more than a cleaver series of pictures. The art style and basic game play concept are both inspired by Myst. I've actually had several friends say "this looks like Myst" when I've sent them some screenshots and the trailer. Did you even watch the PS4 trailer? It will be released on PS4/PC/iOS simultaneously with the possibility for other consoles coming later. Lastly the PS3/360 are almost 8 years old it really isn't that much of a stretch to say that mobile devices outperform them.
