    Oh god. The constant double click. I try to correct my mom, but it never stops. She works on a computer all day and double clicks everything. One time she was stumped by youtube because she double clicked the video and it would full screen instead of pause and then switch back when she went for a second attempt. 
     
    Also, 10 inches is never enough

    It is way easier to classify generations by the front number rather than per architecture, but it looks like intel is kind of wishy washy with their classifications

    For me, I just don't at all understand the whole wearable trend. I don't understand why anyone would ever need to have a device on their wrist that does less than their phone. I almost always have my phone in my pocket so unless it can do something new and exciting then I don't understand it's value. I think having something that looks decent and acts as a heart rate monitor would be alright, but we just simply don't have the battery density to be able to power something like that for any reasonable amount of time with the added watch functions and screen added in.
     
    The trend that I do subscribe to, though, is the whole cloud movement and VDI. I believe that everyone should be moving to hosted solutions with thin clients. It pains me to say this because I very much enjoy system building, but I think it is ultimately the way the market will head. We really aren't that far away from ubiquitous access to the internet with elon musk's satellite system and google bloons and the already existing LTE network we have that can transfer more data than most peoples home networks anyway.

    I might get crucified for this, but I really don't see a future for the oculus rift either. Until they are able to do something that doesnt require a clunky device strapped to your head I don't see it really going anywhere. It's a cool idea and might give you a nice experience, but the amount of people who are actually going to put something like that on their face and game for hours and hours is a very small minority no matter what price point it's at
