It'll take less than a week before someone snags/sniffs enough info about how the Amazon control system has been implemented to be able to capture and control one of these. See an Amazon drone? Fire up your laptop and pringles can antenna and force it to land. Profit.

that would be money

Me, but it's really because I'm planning on replacing my entire system and I don't want to go with 8.1 if 10 is close. I would rather do a complete build and start fresh with windows 10. Believe it or not but I built my current system at the end of 2009 right when windows 7 came out (original...

- People stress about not having enough money (for whatever, it doesn't matter) - Stress is a major cause of unhappiness. So if you had more money then you wouldn't be stressing about those things and you would be less unhappy. All that might be true but it doesn't mean that having more money...

"They don't understand. I could come up with a program that could rip that place off big time…big time."

If it wasn't for states like Alabama and South Carolina us North Carolina folks would be 50th in everything. As it stands now we enjoy being in the "high 40's"; at least there's always one or two other states out there we can point at.

so another opportunity to play a game with an inadequate update frequency that results in constantly being shot while behind walls and around corners. umm.. no thanks.

As long as it still requires physical contact I'm fine with it; replace the old strip with new contacts wired to a chip but I'll continue to "modify" all RFID cards sent to me with my nail setter and hammer.

I don't really see this a specifically a laptop issue; this looks to me like the foundation for the holy grail of gaming; a fully modular gpu solution. You buy a gpu container box that includes - a standard interface to connect with a computer (laptop OR desktop) - a standard interface to...

add me to the "ah ha, that's why" list. I just figured I had lag tossed and gotten the edge of a wall or something. Makes sense now if the hitbox is still standing there. queue the "impervious meat shield tank" exploiting...

I have this exact same keyboard with Cherry MX Red switches and red O rings. By far the best keyboard feel I've ever typed on. I have this setup at home and I also bought another one for use at work. I just couldn't stand going to work and dealing with a rubber dome keyboard every day after...

It would be different if she was an engineer too and the only one not hired but that's not what happened. Also the bit about her making less than her coworkers is only comparable if they were doing the same job; which they weren't because she's not an engineer and they were. This would all...

I've never owned an official gaming mouse and I've been using a Logitech M505 for years now. All I want is a two button mouse with a scroll wheel that doesn't just spin freely (i like the detents feeling on the M505) that is designed to have polling rates in excess of the standard 125...

and the award for understatement of the day goes to...

great, so now we can sit there screaming at the impossibly broken pathing AI while looking at new buildings instead of sitting there screaming at the impossibly broken pathing AI while looking at old buildings.
