There's also lots of stats you can find out there that back up that not only do the cheaper non-3D ones sell better, but that when people do buy a 3D TV it wasn't the 3D feature they bought it for, and they didn't see it as a positive.

I always knew the majority of people didn't care about 3D, but I'd still like to think it's not going away anytime soon. Surely there's enough of a die-hard market that high-end TVs will still include a 3D option? I can only hope. Admittedly, I don't watch a lot of movies in 3D, but games are a different story. Games can be so much more immersive when played in 3D.

If we hit that bullseye, the rest of the dominoes should fall like a house of cards. Checkmate!

Oh, how I wish I had moderator points.

Are you my sister-in-law?

I've been trying for decades to get my mother to understand the difference between a kitchen freezer, and a cryostasis chamber...

In common practice against corporations, maybe, but there are absolutely criminal penalties to be had.

Nah, he's right. When your skills get "sufficiently advanced" and your needs spread into the more esoteric corners of the house of horrors, you run into even more half-done, half-assed, all-broken aspects of the language.

To this day, I'm not quite sure what the point was in implementing an SSL API that has no way to check for certificate revocation (the whole point of certificate-based security)...

Back when I had to explain this to some students I was tutoring, I basically said that HTML and CSS aren't programming languages, they're input.

They seemed to understand it after that (they were, apparently, a lot sharper than what passes for slashdotters, these days)

Not even close. I still pull it out every six months or so and spend a week re-watching it.

Check out "Matters of Honor" (S03E01) and "Voices of Authority" (S03E05). At the end of the former, it's revealed that Morden (faceman for the Shadows) is conspiring with PsiCorps and members of the Senate. In the latter, the communication Ivanova intercepts reveals that the Shadows, via Morden again, set up the assassination.

'snydeq' isn't a member of the community, he's a paid writer. Go look at his submissions v. comments. This whole site is a sham anymore. This will be my last logged in post. Complete troll bait anymore. Have fun being cogs in a money making scheme. Like Facebook they're done making money off me.

In a word, "Yup."

Depends on the laws in their HQ location, but in most civilized nations this is called extortion by Hold Security. They are most likely in the cross hairs of law enforcement as I type this. If this turns out to be a bogus or inflated claim (like it smells) they could face some serious criminal and civil charges, regardless of what country they are in.

From a guy whose handle is 'MobyDick' the most exciti... zzzzzzzzzz

I think you're high as a kite and full of shite!

I have had my eyes checked regularly as I wear glasses and have since age five. They test for colorblindness when you get your eyes checked. WTF is up with "as far as I know?" I know I am not colorblind, at all.

Pulverisation, preferrably by hammer on concrete slab, in absence of a suitable anvil; maybe Acme brand.
