The Tumblr site is running analytics, for starters.

Pretty sure this is a viral ad for the Hidden app...

MOAR SPOILERS:

I can't speak for all of you, but when ads are properly targeted I really don't mind them as much. Frankly I would like the commercials I view to be relevant to my interests (and advertisers agree).

MAJOR SPOILER:

Sorry, but it's still you. If you're going to make disparaging remarks, you should probably do your homework first.

XKCD-fail. The proper response is "That is some tough ass-meat." ;)

How about simply having a policy of not punishing the victim then? There are minors who are registered sex offenders for taking pictures of themselves.

Because working conditions there aren't that bad and the suicide rate isn't that abnormal.

Sounds good, but please refrain from landing any tungsten "Rods of God" in my backyard. Thanks.

This isn't new. Markerless AR has been around for some time. Total Immersion (www.t-immersion.com) has been doing exactly this for years.

I can see the marketing tagline now: "Hit your data cap faster than ever!"

My Lenovo laptop came with a similar feature. Variable lighting conditions made it almost unusable at certain times of the day, even outside low-light scenarios where it never worked properly. The only time I could get it to reliably work was when I held up a picture of me from my wallet.

I didn't see the blood bit as being a problem if he was a "Tourney Knight". That fits with how he said in the episode that Robert won't consider him a real man till he kills someone in battle, or whatever the line was.

The weird thing is GRRM said on his blog that he thinks most fans loved the Renly/Varys exposition scene. For me it was the low point of the episode. Not the best episode overall for me, in part because of the breaks from the book.

Does the bottom photo look weird to anyone else? I can't figure out what's going on below and to the left of the person's left hand. Not saying it's shopped, just that something looks off...

These are standard at Jack in the Box in southern California now. They're great mainly because you know that your order will at least be placed correctly with no danger of "Oh, you said no cheese? I thought you said extra..."

Holy math fail batman. 4990 BC to 2011 AD is 7001 years not 7000.

Then you're silly and should have paid more attention in physics class. This is not how magnets work. Inverse square law means that the force of the magnet increases dramatically as you get closer to it. You can't make something hover freely below the magnet. If the force is strong enough to bring the balls that far…

Apple received a design patent on the iPhone 4 which includes the steel band.
