FPS with a Wacom Tablet

Well, at least robots can be built according to our preferences... My reasons for finding a significant other are slowly fading away.
 
I'm expecting a Hatsune Miku doll in the future. If it ever becomes a thing, sign me up.
 
 
 
Also, Chobits is one of those mangas you have to read. No questions asked.

Imagine recommending a certain overclock setting for frying eggs... The possibilities are endless.

Umm, they could just remove the headphone jack entirely and have it run off Lightning. That, would be an elegant solution. 
 
Not to mention the money they'd make from Lightning to 3.5mm...

Well, people oppose things that remove the human element, or the human element itself.
 
In short, people want a paradox... I'll leave that up to interpretation.

The camera becomes the next gun control controversy...

But can it make bacon?
 
That is the question. Passively cooled system sounds great, but the sound of bacon frying while gaming is better...
 
EDIT: I know, massive TL;DR. But I had to do it.
 
Otherwise, I'm just drooling over your PC right now,

For something this big and promising a new level of productivity, Apple better not mess up the software support (I see full ARM-enabled Adobe Suite incoming in a couple years) that is has been gloriously delivering. I personally can see something bigger out of this, but right now it is in its baby steps. Maybe Gen 2 or 3 will come, and Wacom is going to have some serious trouble in the digitizer market.
 
Or this is simply a glorified iPad.
 
 
 
 
But that depends on how Apple will handle this. But seriously, the Pen and the KB Cover are straight out of the Surface.

If you want to learn C++, there are a few good books you need to go to. Self-teaching it when there's as much meticulous underpinning structure and complexity left from its inception (must have a header file with declarations or all functions called must be declared above the caller) is a bit of a fool's errand. BRB with my favorite titles (hooray for amazon).
 
Intro C++: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0321563840?ref_=wl_mb_recs_1_title
Intro C++: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0201704315?colid=1ATAWRFDY0G4T&coliid=I2XT6DCQVWSH9R&ref_=wl_it_dp_o_pd_nS_ttl
 
Those two books should be read in tandem to get both the technical and the practical as well as common (but moderately difficult) problems solved in C++
 
Engineering-Level Problems: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0201615622?colid=1ATAWRFDY0G4T&coliid=IBMAEIE2HM9UL&ref_=wl_it_dp_o_pd_nS_ttl
Technical, Code Patterns & Improvement: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1491903996?colid=1ATAWRFDY0G4T&coliid=I2QXP0WCDGCVPJ&ref_=wl_it_dp_o_pd_nS_ttl
 
Those two together once you're comfortable are a crash course in making the language work for you and training your brain to see algorithmic solutions.
 
Intro to Game Programming: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0990582906?colid=1ATAWRFDY0G4T&coliid=I3S1N0BK68WD0E&ref_=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl
Mathematical Approaches to Programming: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0321942043?colid=1ATAWRFDY0G4T&coliid=I9HEYF68V603R&ref_=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl
 
Those two give you a good taste of going toward a data or heuristics-intense path or towards a creative/"games" track.
 
Native C++ Parallelism: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1933988770?colid=1ATAWRFDY0G4T&coliid=I13LXYIZMNU2P3&ref_=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl
Generic Parallel Algorithms/Programming Patterns: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0124159931?colid=1ATAWRFDY0G4T&coliid=I31Y9MWW1IECRL&ref_=wl_it_dp_o_pd_nS_ttl
OpenMP (no book exists, but you should know this exists and how to use it) http://bisqwit.iki.fi/story/howto/openmp/
Intel's Thread Building Blocks: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0596514808?colid=1ATAWRFDY0G4T&coliid=I3488PSBEHVU4G&ref_=wl_it_dp_o_pd_nS_ttl
 
Those four are tough but very useful reads and where I learned the bulk of what I know in parallel design. OpenMP specializes in synchronous design (but can do both) and is supported by all the major compilers (MSVC 2015 is still only at 2.0 even though 4.0 has been out since 2012 and 4.1 is now out). Intel's thread Building Blocks specializes in asynchronous design and is currently only supported by Intel's C/C++ compiler, but GCC and Clang plan to support it in coming builds. 
 
Multi and Many-Core Programming Patterns: http://www.amazon.com/dp/0128021187/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pd_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=1ATAWRFDY0G4T&coliid=I162N9RMPB7W2Z
Many-Core Parallel Programming (Xeon Phi focus, but applicable to much more, including Intel's integrated graphics architecture): http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0124104142?colid=1ATAWRFDY0G4T&coliid=I230JFI6PH9RNW&ref_=wl_it_dp_o_pC_S_ttl
GPGPU in OpenCL 2.0 (2.1 edition should be out soon) http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0128014148?colid=1ATAWRFDY0G4T&coliid=I2DMIH81D0LY5R&ref_=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl
 
Those three are the most difficult reads and should only be undertaken when you are comfortable with parallel modes of thought.
 
And of course, no computer scientist is complete without a good algorithm book. http://www.amazon.com/Algorithm-Design-Jon-Kleinberg/dp/0321295358/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1441841431&sr=1-1&keywords=kleinberg+tardos
 
Sorry I don't have a good data structures book for you. I've never found one I liked.

Blocking unauthorized hardware?
 
There goes my Microsoft Intellimouse 1.1a overclock.

Isn't this why we have NVMe, optimized for SSDs?

If there is no forced induction taking place don't call it twin turbo!  :angry: God this pisses me off

Now if battle itself is strictly determined by the robot casualties it causes rather than human casualties (Literally the humans are outside out battle all the same) in order to settle our conflicts, I can accept that. I would accept an NGNL mentality (an anime if you don't know the reference) but not using robots to inflict human casualties.
 
Imagine the robot battles you see on TV but with diplomatic relations on the line.
 
 
 
 
 
Again, this might only work if we obey the rules regarding my proposition.

This needs to be covered by WAN or something. I also googled "dmca cars" and there are other sources covering the site

So like an entire network array of workstation-grade Core i7s and GTX Titan Z's that could fit the entire building?? Can it run Win 95 solitaire at 30fps at 240p?
 
 
Even better, can it run Skynet?

Granted, but a T-1000 was pointing it at you, loaded with several mags.
 
I wish BSOD had memes appearing whenever windows crashes
 
 
... Don't forget to add your wish next time

Granted, but that pony was a cheap Hasbro knockoff from the Disney movie "Spirit"
 
I wish a dual-socket PC was a viable way of cooking food while gaming

Well... there goes the idea. Wide angle lens it is

Lol, my bad for not letting you know
