Rich prick didn't like the idea of losing his total control of media, so began a relentless attack of the previous government using the current media he has at his control. All sorts of brainwashing techniques were used. It worked.

We had a chance and we blew it.

Doesn't it worry you how much 'glass' there is in the front?

Slow moving zombies, sure. But fast, angry zombies would punch a hole in that in no time.

Still prefer Augmented Reality Sandbox.

Example on the tubes

Me ... waaaaaay off.

Thanks.

Didn't Arthur C Clarke have this argument with his publishers? Every equation resulted in a 80% reduction in audience?

Something to that effect.

Somebody has an axe to grind.

Yes, I have done it. On my 46" LED Samsung TV (late 2010 model?), a majority black screen draws 22W while a white screen will draw 58W.

Regarding your black on white comment, I spend about 10 hours a day, 6 days a week for the last 15 years looking at gedit with an 'oblivion' font&color setting. I find it quite pleasing to look at (particularly when staring at i's, j's and k's in loops) compared to black on white, which I can sometimes lose focus, line, on.

Just sayin'. That's all.

I've never understood this line of logic that seems to happen with computing. It's not that hard. Hook up a power meter and see for yourself.

Stop guessing and start knowing.

Use a dark colour as a background instead of white when drawing pixels.

Depends what country you hail from. For most countries, the police don't have to worry about a rifle (let alone a semiautomatic one). Australia is one of those countries. I'd like to help the police keep it that way.

Agreed. I'm all for free speech and everything but I don't want a gun culture society. We've seen what that becomes with the US. Americans don't see it but everybody else thinks it is madness. Guns are just not necessary in modern day to day living.

I support the NSW police, aka government, on this one 100%. Make the possession of printing instructions for a weapon of this type illegal (as is the possession of certain types of images) but not the printer itself (images in general).

Where I used to work, the security guys used to do the same thing. It is a good thing. They are doing their job by making sure everything is secure. Expose weaknesses before the real thing happens.

Now, do your jobs and make sure your systems are secure and don't allow anything through.

I'd have to start posting in rubber panties and booties.

Fuck yeah. Pwned.

Maybe they did. Maybe tehy did.

This could be it. Prove it wrong.

Shame your comment is going unmodded. Points for polite, level headed, response.

Personally, I don't care if I'm not getting a game with it. I'm using linux anyway and will be pointing this device at 10's of petabytes of real 3D data. I'll be too busy to play games.

Still cannot wait.
