No no, not at all. And I definitely don't think that Jez should only cover the US, or ignore sexism or violence in the rest of the world, or anything. It just seems like there's always this huge focus on Western Asia, in particular India, that doesn't exist for anywhere else in the world. Sometimes it seems fine, and…

I definitely wasn't trying to say that violence in India doesn't matter, or anything like that, if that's how it came across. Just that we seem to here more about that region than anywhere else sometimes, coming from Asia myself, it seems squicky to me.

You need help.

Not trying to shit on this parade but what, 4.8 million women are assaulted or raped in the U.S. every year and we have a quarter of the population? Violence against women is an important issue all over the world, of course, but how much U.S. sites seem to focus on violence in India and Western Asia always seems a…

Lets all make fun on you on the internet!

Wasn't someone making a huge deal over how they were making their phone in the US? The uh, Google Moto X, yeah? Is that currently the only phone you'd consider buying?

I'm not sure if two corporation are enough to indict the entire manufacturing sector of the largest manufacturer in the planet. There are some shady stuff that goes on, and some that certainly doesn't make the press, but there are also plenty of companies that, say, pay their workers what they're owed, and provide…

That handwriting? "I saw your movie and I really liked it"? Pretty sure this was written by a second grader

Underground? The vast majority of Tor's funding and development comes from the US government. It was designed to let intelligence operatives communicate with each other without the risk of compromise. It's anything but underground.

Sure, most people are going to need one good zoom and a couple good primes. The problem with the fuji ecosystem is that right now you can't get a single fast zoom. There just isn't one. There isn't one zoom that offers a constant aperture, either. That's the problem with a limited ecosystem - not that you can't load…

Thanks, I grabbed it from a flikr pool. Sure, a slightly larger sensor is going to give you slightly tighter DOF, which is an advantage to the fuji. But frankly, it's slight, and more than made for by faster lenses on the u4/3 side. I mean, there's good bokeh opportunities all around:

Sample shot from that voigtlander. You can really get as shallow as a depth of field as you could want with a fast lens.

Yeah! In my day we spent that money on grass, clothes, and concert tickets, like responsible 20-somethings!

I found their designer!

If all were talking is lens ecosystem, the choice in mirrorless is pretty clearly u4/3. The variety just can't be beat - speed, value, versatility — classic primes to baller telephoto, even lotsa straight up weird ones, you just get more, better options. Fuji offers the complete range but in very limited speeds and…

Sure. In the regions with the very dirtiest electric generation, the very best gasoline engines would be better. I'm not trying to say that they are always 100% better. But overall, in almost all cases and across statistical averages, they reduce emissions significantly.

Instead of your back-of-the-envelop magic numbers, you could check out actual numbers by actual scientists that show EVs represent about a 40% decrease over best-in-class conventional engines.

Y'all motherfuckers need SCIENCE. Seriously, think about it for a second: a vehicle that gets 100mpg equivalent to gasoline is somehow producing more CO2 than a 25mpg gasoline car? That's the kinda logic that only works in magic internet-commenter land. In reality, a standard EV represents around a 40% reduction in…

Eye-fi card?

Yeah, I guess it is a little smaller than a good point and shoot, but also a weirder form factor. What is attractive to me about a point and shoot is that you can just throw it in a purse/pocket, pull it out and start snapping pictures. With this, you'd have to mount it to your smartphone and load up the software, and…
