Canada would extradite him in a heartbeat. Hong Kong was a good choice – they can’t get an ordnanced drone withing 100 miles without starting WWIII.

Both have definitely been emphasized through propaganda. They’re also people.

As a professional, I really wish everyone focused more on active digitizers. It’s superior technology from a professional standpoint. This seems really more of a semi-pro device.

This was intended to be a joke, but for a frame of reference this would be like saying “oh of course a BLACK football player would murder his wife” – just because it’s facetious doesn’t mean it’s not sexist.

Starts off slow and picks up really nicely – the chemistry is a bit different because they couldn’t get the cast together at the same time for most of it, but good writing is good. Nice how it all weaves together.

1. The price is for dev units, which are always expensive to create a barrier from the average person getting it. The component price for these things is probably more like $200. Could easily sell for $300 – $500.

2. Have you used Google Now? pretty awesome vocal recognition. Not perfect, so sure.

3. Yup. When don’t you have your phone on you though? Most people always do.

4. Yup, same as 3.

5. You can watch videos, AFAIK. Not sure how web browsing works – so sure, that’s a point.

6. Yup, new technology blues.

7. There’s a light that indicates recording/photo taking. People can be photographing you in public at any time anyway… so not exactly new ground.

8. Don’t need to, there’s a touch interface – which you already mentioned?

9. That’s a weird point.

10. Okay.jpg

You’re making a lot of presumptions for no reason about a first-gen technology very few people have. Let’s try it and see how it goes, and then dismiss it.
