The article does not compare apples to apples unfortunately. The author compares buying a shoe rack on Google Shopping Express to buying on Amazon. He is impressed that a plywood laminated shoe rack sourced by Target is only $12 while a bam

They believe that you will see X because you believe Y, while they will see P because they believe Q. They believe that Y-ers' worldviews cause them to interpret P as X, and blind them to seeing X as P. They don't believe that there is a ne

There is a problem with the invisible dragon. If your believer is aware that the strongest alternative to their belief that there is a dragon in the garage is that there is no dragon, they will tailor their explanations to your perspective.

Assange and Stallman overlap on a lot of this content really. Stallman is about liberating technology and Assange is about liberating information. I think it's clear that this is the future Google wants. If they occasionally have to hand ov

And 100% less human being? We haven't hit the scaling limits of computation and are unlikely to for some time. But the scaling limit of a human is fixed at sixty minutes per hour.

I've played 5 of these: Dear Esther is a first person explorer that plays with narrative in an interesting way. Thomas Was Alone is a platformer about a rectangle named Thomas and his quadrilateral friends. They become self aware. Story nar

This is what I did for a long time, just enforced by owning an older PC/laptop. I don't get to play things that tax my computer, but only rarely do I want to. That makes my gaming experiences very different from someone playing 2560xwhateve

My family whiled away many hours on this game this weekend. Anyone with interest in languages and travel will find it fascinating. One thing this game teaches you is that much of the world is rural. My parents are totally good at this game.

How could you know the answer to a legal question offhand? Is this FUD? The point of DMCA anti-circumvention is that it makes a crime out of things that were otherwise legal, not tack on charges to things that are illegal for other reasons.

I'm not a developer, but I love indie games. We are living in a Golden Age. I dropped maybe $10 on Minecraft back in Alpha. We are buying desert island games for the price of a latte. I think I bought To the Moon for $3. Maybe $5. And the n

You should look for older games where the dongle was included gratis, like Red Steel 2 or Tiger Woods 10. Worked for me! Also, the ping pong game (and 100 pin bowling) in Wii Sports Resort is probably worth the money for the whole disc, whi

Have you ever heard Dark Side of the Moon live? Pink Floyd basically try to recreate the album note for note onstage, including playing tapes of the famous effects. The production was timeless, an integral part of the music. They have proba
