@Sir Gibler: But this is from 2006. Wouldn't this have been on an original iPhone? Unless they held onto it for 4 years then took a picture, I guess.

@Ninja Nemo: Well, yeah. The rock would be a reference point. You could also just look at a tree and walk towards that, but this article assumes no reference points.

@Klupamos: You're assuming those steps are random. We should be able to make them as straight as we want to. Unless you're just nitpicking the term "perfect", in which case no 3 steps in human history have ever been "perfectly" straight.

Interesting, I always wondered why people who got lost in the woods always passed the same rock twice, especially when you generally know which direction you came from (East, West, etc.). Even when getting lost in a relatively small neighbourhood I end up driving by the same house a couple times even when I'm sure…

This is only 1000x500?

@DangerousDac175: Presenting how to fold a shirt in 2 seconds, a 2 minute, 12 second production.

@Carmatic Frua: How can you eat at a time like this? People are missing!

@Netscott: I thought it looked like a nug of weed at first glance.

Why wouldn't you just tether straight to the phone?

@georhehagi: What privacy? You can still see their house's exact address and even get directions to it, the picture of their front yard is just blurred. You can still get a birds-eye view of their house unblurred on Google maps.

@Moonshadow Kati: That's what I thought too, like it was some kind of federal injunction or something. Being able to opt-out sounds like a totally acceptable option, and less than a quarter mil out of 81+ isn't bad at all.

Coincidentally, this is what Germany actually looks like if you've ever been to Oktoberfest.

@Moonshadow Kati: My thoughts exactly. On the first part, that is.

@Kardster: Is there an echo in here?

Is this some sort of opt-out thing anyone can do? 240,000 tin foil hats out of 81 million sounds about right.

@snapper.fishes: What? They're ridiculously cheap. Google shop "iphone stylus". Not that they're worth a damn at any price.

@Santar: Well...duh? That's never going to happen though and can hardly be expected. This (and Epic Citadel, to be noted) both match up easily to previous gen consoles which is darn impressive in my book. It even borders on early current-gen. In countries where the iPhone is not exclusive to a carrier, it's usually…

@Elvoril: There are "serious" iPhone gamers?

@Jesse Tobiason: Sorry, that was really corny.
