    Bullet Train Unreal Engine 4 Demo

    "if this is the best the UE4 engine can do" No..this is a VR tech demo which emphasizes having to run very high FPS at high resolutions. This is old, but you can see what UE4 can render real time if you want to maximize quality. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3EJC1edU3Y4

    FCC: Net Neutrality Critics Are Flat-Out Wrong

    Definitely not the case with windows 8 on launch (as system at work still behaves as I described), and I seem to recall it not being initially changed on first update to win 8.1, but perhaps they have finally addressed that particular nit. Baby steps to make win 10 not suck on release.
