    "Cartridges" are back! -- the Next Nintendo system

    Yes, but Sony's deep pockets allow itself to lose money for the sake of the "unknown future" and take a hit if need be. Nintendo's pockets, though relatively deep, might just not be deep enough for such a gamble (Sony has other departments and business fronts to rely on in case of a failure. Not...

    "Cartridges" are back! -- the Next Nintendo system

    If Sony and MS are losing money on their consoles, it could very well be that Nintendo cannot or is not willing to take a financial risk such as that - provided that selling titles for the console is supposed to make up for expected loses as well as adding a margin over that. We already have...

    Will next generation Mac mini drop VGA support?

    They will most likely not support VGA since it will require an extra chip as the integrated graphics does not support it natively. And again, Apple is probably the first in line to ditch that old standard. I suppose that the next Mac mini iteration will skip Broadwell altogether, right?

    Will next generation Mac mini drop VGA support?

    The current generation Mac mini still supports VGA. I have a VGA projector that I'd like to use along with it, but was thinking of waiting for the next iteration (Skylake?) instead of buying one right now. Knowing Apple is quick to ditch legacy standards, I guess that the next generation Mac...

    ISIS announces birth of new caliphate

    There is no moral between political entities that have no authority above them. Stupid. Have you studied the history of your much admired liberalism? Suppressing your animalistic nature is in itself a form of animality: the Jacobins in France demanded equality, liberty and brotherhood and...

    Are there proven and reliable WIRELESS solutions for HDMI and USB connections?

    Hello, I'm asking hypothetically here. There are many products out there that promise a wireless connection between an HDMI output device and its respective input device, over 30 feet or so. Same goes for a wireless USB connection between a USB device and a computer, over the same distance...

    possible situation i see developing, and, it's friday.. so here goes, "US militatary.

    It looks like Kerry's speech has very probably sealed the deal.. America is going to hand a military blow on Assad on some scale. I just hope Israel isn't going to be suffering strikes by Syria. :/

    Syria is an absolute disaster *Update 5/17*

    Read up on international relations. Morality is fragile at best, and generally speaking nonexistent. Also, read a bit of history to realize what "stronger, mature, industrialized societies" have done to one another and to other nations in order to protect their interests.

    Its not getting any Easier for Israel

    Well, the harsh reality is - as far as I conclude - that although there are definite and blessed attempts to resist a dreaded constancy in human nature as the one I observed on my earlier post, that nature can not, to my deep sorrow, be overridden. The ICJ and ICC are - among other things - the...

    Its not getting any Easier for Israel

    Whiskey16, I admire your liberal stand and share with you the values incorporated within the liberal thought. Because of Jews such as yourself Israel is a democratic nation, respecting the core rights that have been constituted by the western liberal philosophical culture. BUT, the grave...

    Wow time just does not slow down!
