Depending on the type and quality of the pen they can get pretty expensive. Get yourself a good fountain pen. Your hands will thank me.
And then there are mechanical keyboards (seriously why would you ever write anything by hand these days when typing is infinitely faster and allows you to do all kinds of things with the resulting digital information). And for the hardcore hipsters, typewriters.
See you can make any hobby expensive.

The only hobby i have that costs any money at all is video games, and that's mostly free too. I don't really play too many games anyway.
You're a terrible capitalist.

You're asking US? Look around you for a minute.
Anti-Ultimate Wrote:I don't get America. You guys seriously don't want free health care?
But it's not free. Even universal healthcare isn't "free". Don't get me wrong, I support ACA and think it's a step in the right direction. But these liberals who think the money is going to pop out of thin air are hurting our credibility.

Cost and complexity. I've already answered this one previously.
jimbo1qaz Wrote:it would only need two levels (polarize and don't-polarize).
How would you get unpolarized light to be visible to only one eye?
Your suggestions make zero sense and if it were this easy the engineers working on it would have done it by now. Multi billion dollar corporations are throwing everything they can at making 3D tech cheaper and more widely availible. What makes you think you can do it better than them with your extremely limited understanding of the underlying physics?
jimbo1qaz Wrote:Man what happened to that post where I suggested using two transparent TN panels oriented at right angles and triggering alternately every other frame, placed directly in front of the screen? Or would that cost more than a 3D display?
jimbo1qaz Wrote:I meant transparent large-cell liquid crystal switchable polarizers, not entire displays built around them.
I think ignoring supply/demand, the per-unit cost for building a single transparent liquid crystal cell should be cheaper than that of a display with around 6 million individual cells (assuming 1080p 3-channel).
That's it. I've hit my limit for stupidity this week. Please try again next week. You'll just have to sit down and google/think about this one for a few minutes to figure it out because I'm not explaining any more of this to you.

Of course there will be. D3d 11.1 already requires it.

And what do you base that conclusion on?
Anti-Ultimate Wrote:It still bothers me there was no GTX790
There is. They just didn't call it that. That's basically what the titan Z is.
