I, too, fear for the mongrelization of our once-proud culture. Did you hear they're letting them play golf now too?

It’s not the most powerful gaming laptop out there, but you won’t find better bang for your buck than the Toshiba Qosmio X75. Every Qosmio X-series laptop includes the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770M with 3GB of GDDR5 RAM, which will play Crysis at high settings, and pretty much anything else at ultra settings. Reviewers…
btw, they still sell non-programmable thermostats at like lowes or whatever.
Bruschetta. Probate.
Yeah, Jez could have included a link to their site if they really wanted to be supportive.
Other things it doesn't look: half good.
Wait, so if we reverse the circuitry on that last one, we get a bra that acts as a feedback loop for enhancing bouncing?
Well, in a way I agree and in a way I disagree. I mean, if you look at what's going on, there are certainly problems—a real estate bust is coming, inevitably, corruption is rampant, etc. But, in aggregate, China has gone from mass starvation and poverty to the world's second largest economy in 40 years. Social…
I think what's generally missing from the narrative is that 9 out of 10 of these cities work just fine. They plan them out, pop them down, people move in, and bam, you have room for all the immigrants and people moving in from the farms.
On good days, we'll roast rats over the fires.
Alright, so bear with me. An APS-C sensor captures the detail at 400 ISO as a 1" sensor captures at 200 ISO. So, for the same shot, you can double the iso and shutter speed, thus giving you the same amount of detail with twice the shutter speed. In terms of low light, especially, the larger sensor gives you detail at…
Okay, look: with twice the sensor area, all other factors the same, you get the same light and thus detail at, say, 4000 ISO on a APS-C as you would with 2000 ISO on a 1" sensor.
Well, it means you could double the resolution or shutter speed, for instance.
Because with the same aperture and focal length, you could double the shutter speed, half the ISO, or double the resolution on a sensor twice as big. Or some combination of the three. Why wouldn't you talk about the amount of light?
For purposes of exposure, yes. For purposes of depth of field or amount of light gathered, no. The equivalencies I listed were for the amount of light gathered.
Molten salt is a very cool technology that has been played with for a while, so it's cool to see it come together. That being said, not sure if I agree with the first sentence. Typically, demand where solar power is available peaks right in the middle of the day, tapering off towards evening, and is low during the…
I'm afraid you don't understand how aperture works. f/2.8 on a 1" sensor is the same as f/4.8 on an APS-C sensor, and the G1 X starts at f/2.8, so about twice as much light on the wide end, tho a stop less on the long end.
F/2.8 constant aperture sounds great, but it's totally wasted on that sensor. With Canon, Nikon, and Fuji all putting APS-Cs in their pro point and shoots, that 1" is hella disappointing, making the f/2.8 equivalent to an f4.8 on any of theirs.
Oh, how I love Why?. I saw them in SLC last summer and it was just a great show. Small venue, they came out with two drummers and just brought the place down.
