The real problem with shifts like this is the transition period. I agree that that, considering every luddite separately, that each did have valid concerns. Every person cares forst on foremost about themselves and/or their immediate f

Same here. Although it's been a very long time since I bought on eBay as well. Now that I make some serious money, I'd rather buy from Amazon. Not the marketplace either. Just plain old Amazon. Where I know I am dealing with a com

I use gmail and search for stuff. That is about it. And because of that, I only log in like once a day into gmail, check mails and log out. Why would I want to stay logged in after that? This site only showed me that it knows nothing abou

That's too bad. The light bleeding makes playing games like Elite Dangerous really cumbersome. You can even dial down the cockpit LED brightness but that doesn't help with the bleeding. Because then the LEDs are too dull to read e

I feel you on the boring parts of F1. This, coupled with the idiotic halo they just have to put on the cars next year will mean that I spend my weekends a bit differently. But, to the matter at hand, the vid only seems to be blocked when

Yup, that's the other thing. Obviously, the greens don't want nuclear power but so far, the renewable energy can't satisfy the current demand. Let alone an incresed one because of EV's.

I get nightmares thinking what that will do to electricitry prices. The graph of how they rose is already awful. And now imagine if the tax collected on mineral oil for gas falls away cause everyone drives electric. And know that there isn&

My Win7 Ultimate installation is looking better and better. At least three more years of peace of mind while being entertained by stories like this. One can only imagine the state of this mess in three years. Let's not forget that wi

Battery life seems not like a surprise. Isn't Apple only selling 2015 MacBooks without a discrete GPU? So you basically only have Intel Graphics in there which would mean a charge lasts much longer if it doesn't need to drive an N

Sounds fine for people who are resistent to motion sickness. But, especially in a medical setting, what would they do if the patient became nauseated during surgery? Surely that can't be beneficial. And lying in bed while all senses te

I don't think the whole point of the game could have been to "clear" the levels. I mean, Mario auto runs and auto hops enemies. Save from having to manually jump pits its not really that hard to get to the end of a level. I t

Someone already does. ZapTip etc. But how often have we heard about issues? Short Circuits and even fires and it ended up being a non Apple Third Party acessory that was faulty and caused the issues? Is it really that much to ask if one w

I read threads here and on reddit and found it interesting that on reddit the consensus was that apple handled it quite well and according to the evidence they had and that the dev should have realized why he was on the hook. Plus the tapin

I never really got the "wouldn't know what to do with myself" argument. Especially with people who work in IT. First, I would occupy my time with hobbies. With all that time I could try anything I wanted that looks interestin

Agreed. "Copy Password to Clipboard", anyone? The thought of having that being transmitted unencrypted to a cloud server is not a nice one...

The problem is, they can never satify everybody. I bet you that if they ever split iTunes up in separate apps like you suggested there will also be a lot of people who dislike that approach and rant along the lines of "Why did they sp

The simple solution for that would be a special charger with a Y-cable so one can plug the headphones in there when the device is charging. No extra adapters that can be lost. Just include a charger with a y-cable thingie in the iPhone pack

The biggest one for me in simply the UI complaints. Agree almost 100%. It is ugly. Period. And no way of changing that. Something that past Windows Versions let me do. People are so quick to mention XP and its default theme. But that&#

Featured word being "limited". How on earth would that be sufficient for a professional user or even for a poweruser of the consumer version of an OS. If they just need to stifle, they should have come out with a Windows Kiddie ve
