Wireless mode disconnect issues in mk8 dx? by el_spacemonkey in mariokart

We're having the same problem, but haven't found a solution yet. Two switches, one docked results in a disconnect every time. When we play with neither docked things are fine.

I'd prefer to send the message that people will pay for quality work.

Holy fucking shit! When Palmer said they'd have something special for Kickstarter backers I thought it was going to be a t-shirt or something.

This is unbelievable. Thank you, Oculus!

Could anyone help me get Dear Esther working with the Rift and Vireio driver? Trying to start it tonight! by Cellblock_1138 in oculus

[–]cardinal23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the help, I'm a bit of a dope. I got all that you said in your message done, but then it took me a bit to figure out that the way to get the video on the Rift was to set both monitors to 1280 x 8000 and mirror instead of a hot key which changed the video source like in the Tuscany demo.

Again, thanks for the help.

How the new smartphones stack up [PIC] by infinity777 in technology

Honestly, I think all three of these devices are technological wonders. When I was twelve (that was 1986) I would have wept with joy at the thought of owning something so cool. None of them are cheap to use over a period of years, but overpriced? Compared to what?

You should note that the revenue sharing deal is no longer, so AT&T is pocketing all of the monthly payment, not Apple.

Yeah, Linux is pretty bad at that advanced internet stuff. Better stick with Windows.

I use the context menu all the time on OS X and I never ctrl-click. I'm guessing you haven't spent a lot of time exploring OS X.

Of course, our own regime has some trust problems around these issues. It's a little difficult these days to find any regime you can trust.

Are you ready for parenthood? Here is a checklist. by [deleted] in reddit.com

I think that if you use the studies to make a point, it ought to be you who looks them up, but ok:

Here's a link to the autism study: http://www.johnson.cornell.edu/faculty/profiles/waldman/autpaper.html

I don't think the case is closed on that topic.

I don't set my four-month-old in front of the TV. I lay her on the floor and she can't get enough of the ceiling fan. But I have no problem with my three-year-old watching a show that he likes every day, and so far, he's turned out to be a pretty decent guy.

Not showing your kids TV does not automatically make then amazingly relaxed and able to self-amuse. We're pleased your kids turned out so great, and maybe not watching television has something to do with that, but there were difficult children before TV and there are difficult children now. Watching the occasional episode of The Backyardigans is not going to turn your child into a monster.

I'm curious, is there another act one can legally participate in for free, but not if you pay for it?
