It's as if they believe that we shouldn't be angry with them spending $2.1 TRILLION (58% of $3.54T) on programs that the federal government has no business spending money on in the first place. BTW, thanks for preceding this article with " The&
Honestly, playing with the Win8 DevPreview makes me wonder if I am the only user left that has multiple windows open and visible on the desktop at the same time. It used to be easy to tell the barely functional users with their fullscreen window from the power users with lots of overlapping windows. Guess I'm just a dinosaur with my Windows 7 preference. Here's hoping that Tiles does indeed Make Metro Make Sense!

I'm confused... How is capping salaries for non-government related positions even legal? Let alone within congressional jurisdiction.
The real question is: Why would you read such trash anymore anyway. Ever since the AOL/TW merger, their definition of news has swung so far to the entertainment crowd as to be completely meaningless.
One feature I'd like to see as a reader, is the ability to read an entire article from the front page of a particular blog. I understand the loss of statistical data doing so, but I don't believe it is fair to force the end-user to have to click on every article to read it. Maybe make it a profile setting for a logged in user? Also, if you could get the ads put into the feeds, why post the entire article through RSS too? I use an aggregator to read a ton of feed
Sooo.... We've been collecting data for how long now? About 150 years? Reliably? (I doubt it, until recently.) I have always maintained that ~50 years of highly variable data is way too insignificant to predict trending on a geologic scale. Its like predicting annual stock performance by only looking at the prices over a span of a couple hours.
I love it when a company obviously considers performance when they release a game. I have never seen a company do it better than Stardock. But I have a question: Would there be any value in providing compiler-optimized versions of the primary executables for common processors? There must be performance benefits with a game optimized for SSE3 instructions on Prescott P4 (and later) CPUs instead of having to compile to the lowest common dem
Great article, again! I especially appreciated point #7 and the snarky nuclear power remarks. Why is it that even France has more nuclear power production than our much more technically capable country? I live in SE Virginia, home of Smithfield Foods, one of the largest food manufacturers in the world. They are very concerned about ethanol, because it will drive up the cost of corn, which is the primary feed material for pork and a signific

Well, my opinions, on whatever subject don't seem to be costing me economically and even if they were, it's not measurable. I can tell you that you are not quite accurate, at least from my perspective. Your opinions and commentary have driven me to your products. I want to support anyone or any
The show is great, especially the banter. I can get a dry techcast anywhere; yours stands our as informative and entertaining. What I really enjoy is the inside look into your business and the dynamics that the 3 of you share. (Joel is one of us, I fear, looking in on the chaos!) I'd like to hear more of Paul Boyer and his talents too. Or is he really Brad in disguise: we've never heard them in the same room together...!
It definitely feels slow to use. Before I reinstalled XP and ATI drivers (had to anyway), it was getting to point that I would shutdown ObjectDock and WB in order to get things done. Benchmarks are meaningless to me if you don't see the difference. I will try turning off the perpixel or find some older skins to use in the meantime. Thanks for the heads-up.
ATI X800XT-PE with Catalyst 6.1 on a very fresh install of XP SP2 (p4-3.2Ghz, 1GB RAM). WB5 works fine but slows my desktop way down. Happens with all skins that come stock. Tried WB v5.00.01 and b.011. I used Passmark Performance Test 6.0 to come up with differences: Benchmark no WB WB5 ----------- -------- ------- <FONT face="courier new, couri
