The problem that I find with over-aggressive moderation is that the moderators end up exhibiting their personal biases much more obviously than subtle moderation.

I don't know why I bother. No matter what intelligent argument I provide, the idiots just come back with useless responses.
EVERYBODY, other than those that use password managers with auto-generated passwords like 1Password, has a bad password. Most of us use a password that's partially (or entirely) based upon a dictionary word. Although easier is to get you to login to "ŁFS.net" and get your password that way. A good password manager prevents as it does domain checking and will not give a password to a phishing site.
You also need to remember that the vast majority of users, be it Windows, OS X, Android or iOS are not tech savvy users. They fall victim to super obvious phishing scams due to lack of education or lack of awareness. Even users who are tech savvy do sometimes fall victim to phishing attacks, to claim you are immune simply means you are not smart, but instead naïve.
Yes, because Apple programmers allowed celebs to have their passwords phished...
It is secure. iCloud wasn't hacked. People have shitty passwords and don't enable additional security features like 2 factor authentication.
Yes, it's easy to flame and say that iCloud was hacked, but that's untrue. Apple added more security to make social engineering less effective, and made non-tech savvy people even more aware that two factor auth exists and is effective.
The weakest link in every security scheme becomes people.
Hacked refers to servers being accessed without authorization. iCloud servers weren't accessed without authorization.
Because it's at least twice as reliable, stable and secure?

Right, I'm sure the Google keyboard on a fresh install of CyanogenMod is totally a "retarded" thing.
Oh wait, it is. Using Android is retarded.

I'd ask how your phone is doing, but your phone will probably crash a few times while trying to write a response.
Don't even try arguing with the retards. They have their head so far up their own ass they haven't seen daylight in 3 years.
That was a bug reported in the past string of test patches. I thought it was fixed.
Yeah, although the situation you've described is the problem that Windows has in general with pixel doubling (which is what DSR is). High resolution screens are either unusable (because small UI) or you jack up the DPI in settings (which causes weird issues in applications that are unaware of DPI scaling (which includes first party applications like Office.)
OS X actually does high resolution screens properly and the entire UI from the ground up "just works", and even making applications compatible is as simple as just adding @2x assets (if you use NSImage) or writing a small abstraction in your asset loading to retrieve the @2x version if you're on a display with a pixel ratio of >1.

FWIW: You don't need a game to have native support. Most games will show the DSR resolution in the resolution options. As well, you can always setup a profile in nVidia Experience to force the DSR resolution.
Checking AC right now to see if it does show up, but in DOTA, the larger resolution shows up for me without any work.
Except you're not naive, you're obviously on the PCars payroll. No one can possibly think it's as good as you seem to think, and no one is feeble enough to buy into the marketing garbage of "<professional driver> says <x> is <positive quality>" after a video.
8.0 was fine.
8.1 was fine.

To be fair, other manufacturers devices are obsolete before they're even conceived.

It's ironic that you mention the printer, considering at my office, I slowly started teh transition to Macs for everyone. Printer installs were always the amusing thing as it was like "Click +, find it on network, hit install, print" in OS X.
In Windows, it was always 10 minutes searching down drivers on the website, installing them, rebooting, then hoping that the printer still gets found on the network from Windows search thing (which it wouldn't, which entailed entering the IP address.. until the IP changed because someone else ****ed with the router).
When it became so easy that my non-IT savvy boss could install printers for everyone and even do basic troubleshooting which meant I could spend more time developing.. I don't know why people would use Windows for anything other than playing games. Linux is still not ready.. it's closer, but when AAA titles still launch as Windows only, Linux isn't an option yet for games.
SteamOS won't ever mature past being a slim Debian that runs Steam. Valve has no intent on actually evolving a desktop OS. The fact that they even bundle a runtime inside of Steam, separate from the system's library set, which games are supposed to target and use is further evidence of this.

PCARS is shit. Not worth 1/1000th of the attention it gets.
Scawen, is there any chance of getting a high-res overhead of the new westhill prior to release? It'd be nice to be able to see the new layout, as well as the various sideroads.
Better than Vic messaging me a few days ago asking if I was still banned on the forums, because some merge went wrong 
Fact of the matter was that Google felt that a phone with physical buttons was the future, and they invested years into developing that. Even reports from engineers that worked on Android indicates that Google did opt for a rapid change to match iPhone after the iPhone announcement was made.
Do some research. Look at some of the pre-Android 1.0 devices (which were what they were working on before iPhone announcement) and then the shift that Android made after iPhone announcement.
This was before iPhone announcement:
This was after iPhone announcement:

Nobody would have created a smart watch had the rumours not been spread that Apple was working on one.
Look at Android before and after the iPhone announcement. After, try telling me that Android wasn't an attempt to copy iOS. It's far too coincidental that before iPhone, Android was looking like a Blackberry clone.
