it also functions as the keylock/screenlock shortcut, so it's not going to be any use for this. otherwise the usability would be pretty poor, as you do want the screen to turn off and lock from input when you place the phone in your pocket, unless you enjoy random stuff happening.

this lock is separate from that. meaning that you can just open the screen and start doing whatever it was you were doing.

now, with these phones it would be nice to have separate real lock button.

it's doubleception. canada could have blamed some other party after getting caught for trying to frame other party.

now, framing individuals? that's war talk.

I just wish other countries would already learn up and stop sending anyone into usa for being prosecuted for cybercrime. the fuck anyone can know who they framed or whatever, just as excercise...

when your adults want it.
when your hillbillies don't freak out from removing morning prayers, oaths, flag raising and such tomfoolery.
when your adults just want a decent education, equal education, for everyone, for their children and their neighbours children and the children on the east coast and the children in texas. when your adults want everyone to be taught science the same way, the same subjects, when you want religion to taught as a topic and not as history, when your adults will accept that their children deserve _better_ education than them.

Americans don't want it - it's not about the teachers union. from the headlines from USA it would seem it's anything BUT the teachers union that is resisting this. wholesome education you see would include things some parts of the large mass don't want to be taught, like that usa is just a country, that christianity(or the local sect version of it) is just a religion and that there is a vast number of other religions and countries(and that mostly indeed they don't even agree with the pope on what christianity has as it's beliefs so..).

feck off.

the problem with majority of these virtual reality companies and tech is that they try to be too much.

what they need to break into big market is VR gaming.

you know what's the best way to actually play for 3 hours with an oculus rift? a fucking space mouse? kinect? what the fuck. of course not. best way is to sit on sofa with either controller or sofa compatible mouse and kb. essentially you're just going to replace your monitor with the thing - and no it's not the same still as using a hmz-1 or something like that. the immersion is vastly superior and the head movements should work - BUT the head movement should be just something optional. like, if you need to use your head movement even for up/down looking it gets really tiring and aiming becomes a chore. good example about this is how hacked in vr support in hl2 was better than actual "virtual reality support" in tf2, because they tried to make too many modes in the official vr support. just having mouselook functions perfectly - and the head movement then just mapped another mouse. does this disorientate people? probably those who can't play fps's anyways - as a feeling it's not that much different than looking at a screen and using mouselook. the point however is that it doesn't tire you so much.

full movement virtual reality for home games is a wii motion control like gimmick - you just can't make it work and the disconnect is so huge anyways, you can't have tactile feedback anyhow.

just make a high res 90 fov+ head unit and it will sell like hotcakes. console and pc gamers will buy it in troves and just use their old desk or sofa and controls, trying to turn the room into a minority report joke ui is a bad idea(virtual high resolution monitors, 360 degree desktop and such not so bad idea, but would be interacted with kb and mouse finely.

if waving the hands was a good ui for day to day work, then we would be using something quite different from the old typewriter style we have.. the typewriter is better than the pen.

swatters aren't violent people as such.

psychopaths sure, but not doing violence.

point is, what kind of a weekend boozer street fighter would bother with swatting? nobody.

I know, but it's spinning it differently. quite a lot of fossils getting burnt over there.

furthermore, as I pointed it out, there are places that are full hydro already, it's not really news to manage that feat if your country is in a place that allows for it.

and they haven't had a genuine new product since iphone MEGA. or ipad. whatever.

nobody normal cares about the watch, that's the problem

or did they go all electric cars and boats too and start cooking on electric? they had a good rainfall.

with this reasoning norway has been 100%+ renewables for a loong time(they generate more renewable energy than they use, and export the rest). sure, they do export fossil fuels too..

that they take international media seriously. seriously, everytime finland is mentioned, it becomes a headline.

HOWEVER the education articles about Finland are largely not written by Finnish journalists.

to them there is nothing special in the education. there really isn't. what's fascinating is how badly other countries fuck up education and devote hundreds of hours yearly only patriotic shit rather than education. USA, 3rd world countries etc particularly fall into this, in those the school system is supposed to "install values" or shit like that through old brainwashing techniques, like reciting the oath to the nation, teaching respect for the teacher etc etc. all time that could be spent on educating the kids(and the teachers).

that's whats different from finnish schools to others, that they at least TRY to focus on educating facts and not trying to just mold your feelings. flag raising bullshit? "know your place", "brick in the wall" bullshit via school uniforms? yeah, none of that bullshit and who your parent is has zero effect on your grades. incidentally, teachers only gain respect if they deserve it and work for it - automatic teacher respect culture died out decades ago in finland now - which is a strange thing in some countries, like in asia. in thailand teachers are respected, yet they do bullshit like drink beer whilst in class "because it's hot" - the school works more as an authority respect attitude adjustment camp than as a SCHOOL - and then as result even the highly educated are too stupid to understand why it's bad.

rock'n'roll is a big problem that is dramatically increasing.. oh wait.. equal civil rights is a big problem that is dramatically increasing.. oh wait, abolishing segregation is a big problem that is.. kids reading other books than the bible is a big problem that is..

now, having a talidome baby that's a big problem. having your kid in a catholic summer camp with pervs is a big problem. lead paint is a big problem. WORLD FRIGGIN WAR is a big problem, having your brother conscripted to die on the other side of the globe, now that's a big problem.

todays big problems.. sheesh. the only problem is that the kids don't have appreciation for old pc games and like pewdewpie. early internet, hah, now that was something since it was so small you couldn't get away from memes into controlled bulleting boards, fb or whatever. bet you two bucks your kids don't even know what goatse is. but you do - did it break you mentally? no? just take the phone away if you don't want them to read internet all night long. at least it's easier than finding their book&flashlight stash.

but the stresses were always there and the statistics about actual events don't show them to be causing more suicides to happen. cyberbullying is bad yeah, but not as bad as getting hit with a baseball bat. or shot.

on the opposite they help make it easier to make others aware of what's happening.

both? that's what the article is about anyways, that the locked down nvidia stuff gives you 100% better bang for buck(double)? so someone chipping in and saying they have no problems playing some games that should run fine with years old budget cards is not that much of a help to that discusion.

twitch swatting is probably done by people who stay in the home too much, due to whatever circumstances(bossy mom, or whatever).

it gives them a chance at human interaction they can witness(on twitch) without leaving the house.

they tried that kind of shit already years and years ago you know.

right now they're bitching about low royalties on spotify, on stuff they uploaded to youtube for even lower royalties - WITH A FRIGGIN VIDEO and extras like live performances and such.

kind of both.

vocational schools(alternative to going to high school, basically, in finland) kind of already do this kind of stuff. that's where you would have "cafeteria" lessons anyways. in high schools, "chemistry" and "physics" are already topics as is mathematics, biology or whatever and the courses are laid under to cover different topics, like basic gene stuff in biology in one course that includes some chemistry and so on. and by already I mean 17 years ago.

furthermore, it's just a plan by few people at this stage anyways to do it(read the article). basically, the people pushing for it .. well. I don't know, kind of are using the independent to push their vision.

like, I haven't read any of this in Finnish media, which is odd.
