You know that Photoshop has an API for javascript, VB, and Applescript?

I used to do exactly that sort of thing for a product photographer. And it didn't usually take 10 minutes, unless you include the time to execute.

I currently do the same for Indesign documents with linked Photoshop artwork. The Indesign part is worse, actually. Makes dealing with effects and layers seem simple.

Disseminating ITAR-controlled information will get you nailed unless you can prove that only US residents can access it. Same thing happened with early web browsers that had strong(for the time) encryption enabled.

How is having something that is projected into your field of vision legal for use while driving?

Why are LED billboards legal?

I'd be quite happy if they'd standardize the DRM in HTML5. That way there would be one common DRM to crack instead of everyone having their own peculiar variant.

IRC still loves you.

You'd be surprised how many people will give you that info if you just walk up to them and tell them you are a credit card technician from MC/Visa/etc while wearing a jacket with the logo badly sewn on it.

wow, does it solve the halting problem as well?

This is the dev kit, off the shelf hardware, 7 ounces, a little bit larger than a pair of ski goggles. But it will probably stay about the size of ski goggles, though, as Oculus wants to keep the low price point and the large field of view without needing two displays(synch & latency) or complex optics($$$).

The size difference is kind of the point, as they are made for different purposes. The Rift is intended be as large as possible, while .5" screen on Glass is supposed to stay out of your line of sight.

Imagine walking into a crowded room, "tagging" the best looking person there, and then doing an in-depth query on their back story. The next time you see them, appropriate info is fed to you to be able to act like you're someone they should know and like.

And that person does a back search on you as well and realizes that you have never been within a mile of them before this night, nor have you ever been to any of the places you claim to have been or done any of the things you claim to have done.

Ouch.

I'd love to vote with my dollars, but EA keeps interpreting my "no" votes as piracy

Games where I can't possible spend more than the equivalent of two full games on items that materially affect gameplay and are permantent(ships, weapons, etc) or where the stuff is purely cosmetic, I don't mind.

What gets annoying are games where the microtransactions hide that you will end up spending hundreds of dollars on temporary boosts, disabling annoying features, and buying "action points" or "resources" that are clearly designed to limit how long you can play per session.

5 hours of Ingress?

Well I know what phone I'm buying next.

No one would play a hyper realistic farming game

You have no idea how wrong you are.

Nope, you're just bipartisan.

16 years is unreasonable. The battery in the Tesla only has an eight year lifetime and costs around 20-32 grand by itself.

$2500-$4000 a year is more than the average american spends on gas per year. Even worse for the "only drives 30 miles a day" consumer that are targeted by hybrid/electric vehicles.

If they can get the battery cost under 14k, then it'll be the obvious choice. Or when gas prices hit $7/gallon.
