"Advertisers have brought this on themselves. I used a PC with a 3 GHZ single core when my main PC had hardware trouble and I could barely surf the internet because the ads brought it to its knees. Once I installed adblock plus performance was normal again. Then there is all those ads trying to...

There are all kinds of senerios where a automated car would out drive a human. You cant see in front of you, behind you, to the both sides, and 200 yards or so in every direction at all times. A computer can. You cant make a calculation to know if you should speed up or slow down to avoid a...

""...cutting down on traffic...." More cars = less traffic? " Counter intuitive yes. This first step will likely not cut down on traffic at all. However, if the road is full of self driving cars, you can fit quite a few more of them on the same roads and not have traffic. If all cars follow the...

I personally cant wait for self driving cars. Thats not to say that i want to buy a self driving car, i do not! First lets separate transportation from recreational driving, which are two completely different things. Its hard to make any kind of argument for self driving cars when talking about...

You can already get full on android mini tablets for $50. So why would i want this non standard far less powerful mini for 10 and their add screen on for 50 = 60. No thanks. Tho, i do see some point in just the $10 device for the hobbiest crowd. Tho i didnt see anything mentioned about general...

Lot of questions about this and few answers it seems. Does it have a built in ac->dc charger for the battery, does it have a built in dc->dc converter to output something lower then 350-400 volts, ie 48v If it only is a 350-400v battery, with no dc-dc output management. Then this is not...

Don't use edevices when driving. Smart watch included. It might not be as bad as texting on a phone, would definitely be worse texting on a watch. Can you imagine someone trying to fiddle with their dial on the side of the watch, while holding the other hand in a position on the wheel that...

What a load of tripe. So instead of carrying around 1 device, i should carry arround 2. And instead of waking up my smart phone, i should wake up my watch instead. To check my spam and likes, and other tripe i dont wouldnt even bother checking in the first place. No, really i don't need a...

So, you'd rather keep using products that suck, because you are use to using products that suck. Ok i guess, to each his own! Personally i wont touch any software that isnt platform agnostic these days. That way if i want to move hardware im not locked in. Its really pretty simple....

While the move to 4k cant happen soon enough. I think 8k is overkill. For your average desktop monitor size that is. Obviously if it's really wide that's another story, 2 side by side 4k screens is fine. Really it comes down to how good is the human eye. And the number of pixels you need...

Wow.....are they stupid. If i wanted an iphone i would go buy an iphone. They threw away 3 big features....

There is a difference between throttling me because im near my bandwitch cap, or whatever. And throtting a specific site because they didnt pay an extra fee to be on their buddy buddy list. A megabyte of date is a megabyte of data. It should NOT matter who it comes from. If I pay for 1 megabyte...

Dunno how you can say that apple pay is this mecca of innovation. or that its successful. It only just came out, the jury is still in on whether or not its successful. So far, at my business, not a single person has tried to use apple pay. Our terminals support NFC. As a small business owner...

Oddly enough sites requiring at least 1 number, one capital etc....are less secure. Most people will put the capital letter first, and the number on the end. Knowing this, you have just made the password easier to guess, not harder. You narroed the first character from 26 lower case, 26 upper...

Actually a hardware kill switch is really easy. All they have to do is over current a chip, or section of a chip and fry it out. Its easy to add that in if they want. Its not like you can repair 1 fused transistor among billions of others in a processor. They shouldn't ever do this tho. If they...
