I went from OpenGL 1.x over to OpenGL ES, so I don't know most of what modern OpenGL can do. But one glaring weakness is that OpenGL ES doesn't support drawing quads, only triangles. Yeah, the GPU processes a quad as two triangles internally, but if it supports quads, there's less vertex data to generate and pass to the GPU. You can somewhat make up for it by using glDrawArrays, which uses array indexing into the vertex list, but in a lot of cases (especially for 2D scenes), it's still less efficient than if you had quads.

Two miles is two miles.

202 miles driving with a detour through the city at 5 mph is not just 2 miles longer than 200 miles of highway driving.

The motor isn't running when your not moving.

But the heater, the lights, and the stereo system are running, plus regenerative braking isn't magic.

Stop and go traffic for an hour or two in the winter with the heater at full blast could easily drop tens of miles from the total range.

Passphrases are uncommon because many sites think that "at least" means "exactly" when setting up the user database.

I've dropped one bank because of it. And those secret question/answer fields that are also 8 characters long because they might waste entire megabytes of storage if everyone had room for a complete response.

Google doesn't sell Android. It gives away Android so it can sell the eyeballs of Android users to its real customers.

So instead of convincing them not to ban large magazines, they'll just ban guns that don't have fixed magazines.

Is that really what they wanted?

You forgot an option:)

I'm blind and using a braille terminal, you inconsiderate clod

If it has custom profiles suitable for doing solder reflow, I could see getting one.

Limited property interests(such as 'use of a building') aren't tax deductible.

You are so confused about how hard it is to make a gun.

I would hardly call 10^43 FPS "infinite"

That's kind of the point. Unless you think you will make enough money in the next 10 years to justify paying 10% of everything you've made, you aren't going to renew.

Alternatively, creators that think they will be selling forever can just roll the cost in ahead of time, which will allow other creators(e.g. DJs, fan-works) that don't care about the long term can discount their works and sell more on the short term.
