I love how the pullout quote "The legibility of the text is only one of Apple’s many design failures" is barely readable because the font is sans-serif all-caps extra-light extra-condensed. (Also serif headings in the middle?)

RE: After three years of hype, you still can't go into a store and buy a 3D headset
You can still order direct. I have an occulus and Google glass, though given the choice I'd return glass in a heartbeat.

On danger of useful information – GPS receivers can act as a pretty high-stratum timesource, as can dedicated time radio signal receivers. (The buzzterm for me would be DCF-77 to get Ze Offizial German Taime from Fränkföört, this obviously does not scale to leftpondia.)

Well, that's halfway to the UNIX principle: do one thing and do it well.

RE: My application is Windows!
It's one of the things that sounds brilliant for about five minutes on a very high level, and then sounds some subset of stupid, dangerous, infeasible and impossible. Sure, given enough glue on all sides, a windows box might be able to log me into farcebook and online banking, just based on the fact that I've authenticated to it, yay for real single-sign-on, but tell them their mobile phone needs a lock screen and they're coming at you with pitchforks and torches.
