I believe that the xbox series thing will also have hardware raytracing.

I read it as Power = resolution, polygon crunching, and raytracing and speed = FPS. Current gen often has to choose option between those, often with a literal toggle in the settings. I assume they saying that instead they will be getting the ideal middle state.

So... like... I don't get this perspective. We are on a NEWS site for tech and science. By the very fact you choose to be here you are sort of indicating an interest in tech that is in front of curve, right? I feel like every year /. is becoming more like the stereotypical old man yelling "Get off my LAN"! Sorry to rant on you, it's a larger issue, just been bugging me lately. Hope you have a great weekend.

Where you use a standard lithium battery for the day to day, but you have a smaller boost battery that can give you an extra few hundred miles that is not rechargeable. It's that "Just in case" backup that can get rid of range fears.

A few questions: 1. He is a practicing research neurologist that studies and treats brain damage professionally. Researching potential damage vectors to brain tissue and treating them is literally his profession in which he has a doctorate. Why would him not being an engineer have anything to do with proving that wifi could or could not be harmful? 2. Wifi devices transmit as well as receive. So, the more wifi devices in an area, the more radio-waves transmitted in an area, yes? Personally, I think it's all suspect and fear mongering, just like how they said that microwaves could cause damage. It "smells" fake. But since science doesn't exist based on feelings, I'm looking for actual research on the issue. Two studies I've found today are a start, but I need more data. One saying, that participants could not accurately detect the presence of EMF and supports the idea that it could be more mentally triggered than actual wifi issues: https://www.who.int/peh-emf/pu... Another study shows that cellphone wavelengths (not wifi specifically) has shown to cause tumors in rats: https://ntp.niehs.nih.gov/resu...

So... I was also like you all, thinking that anyone that claims sensitivity to wifi is...a bit... off. However, recently my wife's neurologist (Like an actual well known practicing physician) told her the other day that their is potential risk and that he personally uses Wifi, but turns it off whenever possible to reduce any potential risks. I deal with so many doctors that I get that they each have their own thoughts and opinions and that just being a doctor doesn't make you know everything, but it really surprised me. Now my wife is trying to remove most wifi from our house which isn't ideal. So, I was hoping that someone could point me to some actual studies, not TV shows, or internet wisdom, or Ha-ha listen to these funny stories about idiots. But like actual studies and science so I can educate myself.

So I believe that it was NOT 100% fake, top to bottom. But instead a few "thieves" were fake because the creator asked people to help get it stolen and a few lied about it. Here is the information I have seen https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

While that would be neat, I don't think it's realistic. Since the app store has ongoing costs since they host the content, provide the bandwidth, and provide significant numbers of api's and services that app creators tie into.

I dunno, my sister really enjoys that her tv can play netflix without needing a separate "thing".

Ha! I'm sure if you asked nicely she could help you with that. Though, isn't there a disable cortana thing somewhere? I think its the first few options in the settings? (I can't use cortana on my work pc since it's disabled by remote policy)

Right now, Cortana is annoying in many ways. But a specific way that this is make worse is that she answers on all devices in earshot. So if you have an xbox, pc, and phone running cortana and say "Hey Cortana" it answers on all three and tries to take actions on all three... very annoying.

I have one and I love it! Granted I do a ton with the pen to diagram concepts and structures. If you didn't use the pen part then it's prob not a good fit for most people. http://imgur.com/1s3OzRf Crap, so since my experience is different than yours does that mean I'm a shrill? Is there like a registry or something I need to sign into now?

This is what the google found me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

I wouldn't purcash based on hopeful features though... They did kill OTA DVR... Still a bit annoyed about that.

Can you give me a bit more info about these Chassis you speak of? I have a launch day ps4 and am curious. Thanks!
