It is still an image/video in three dimensions. Yes, it could be better. But that would require higher resolutions, and better channel separation. True holographic movies would be horrendously expensive to produce and difficult to watch. It's the directors job to tell a story, and direct the viewers attention. True holograms would make that near impossible, and likely detract from the movie more than it would ever add.
As someone who could both use public transportation, or drive (I live in the suburbs, work in the city) -- and have done both, I would be crazy to drive. The train is often faster than I could drive (but not always, depending on the day), but the train doesn't get delayed nearly as often, and doesn't get in nearly as many accidents. Now, I've never been in an accident that was remotely my fault, and even then, I've only been in two while I was driving, the sheer number of close calls from idiots not paying attention is insane. Factor in gas costs and increased maintenance, and the train is by far the cheaper of the two.
On those alone -- safer, faster, more reliable I would take the train. However, I also gain 1.5-2.5 hours of my day back on top of those already compelling reasons.
More Doctor fail. The squid brain dalek is only one revision of them.
And by those rules, slashdot must comply as well (assuming they have some relationship with something in the EU), as most of their articles are not much more than links back to other sites.
And there is the problem. You believe that free speech should mean that you can say whatever you want without consequences, and that isn't a right. Never has been, and never should be. You are free to say pretty much what you want, but you must face the consequences for saying it. You should also note that free speech is about what the government can prohibit, while there is no such protection from what private or non-government entities can limit.
Please read your constitution and bills of rights.
That is the freedom of the firefox developers to choose. One choice limits the freedom of the end-user to decide if they want to or not.
Personally, I would have liked a raid array controller that I could hook up my 12-drive raid-6 array and being able to attach it to a laptop.
Or attaching my OCZ Revo for a superfast scratch disk.
Or a 10Gbe connection (or faster) so I can access my local NAS box.
But I understand these aren't mainstream use cases, so what I could use to for isn't popular enough to keep such an option viable by itself.
I've never heard Microsoft say that there was a "no selling of used games policy"...ever. What I did hear was they were contemplating not using physical media, which sparked a bunch of people to make wild assumptions. When asked about it, Microsoft responded that you could resell them (based on licensing agreements by 3rd parties), and you would get a code that you could then give to someone else so they could download and activate it. Always seemed reasonable to me, but the wild theories about everything were floating around everywhere that had no actual basis in fact or statements from Microsoft itself.
I don't post as an anonymous coward to hide my identity. I've posted when I was clearly in the minority, but I still post, and I've taken some crazy karma hits for it too. My karma is pretty good, so I don't mind the occasional hit because I'm not in the majority opinion, but I don't write inflammatory or troll posts either.
I'm pretty sure a lot of the commentary would be better off without AC posts as well.
Probably the best explanation of the problem and how adaptive sync works that I've seen. Well done!
The new base 2014 Corvette Stingray also has an aluminum frame and many carbon fiber parts. Although, I heard the 2015 pickups are reusing some of the same tech and will have an all aluminum frame as well.

What else is there by default? Java certainly is NOT there by default on windows machines, nor is it there on a very large percentage of them. According to *MY* statistics, and my target client base, java support is at 65.6%. A far smaller number than
Why would I be walking with my children in front of a moving car?
Or yet another one, what if two people cross the street without looking, and the car swerves off the road to avoid them and rather kill one person who was walking on te pavement, not doing anything wrong?
Simple, you break as quickly as you can, while obeying all traffic laws, and you let Darwin handle the outcome.
