http://youtu.be/34633998 Since I made this little time-lapse video this new year's eve I feel inclined to share it right now. +Vivaldi as an accompaniment.

But in this picture the right way is the moron way. Or didn't I understand #72 correctly?

I have just tested it on myself since I have never paid much attention how I hold the camera in "portrait position". Shooting the "you look like a moron" way stabilises the image a bit since my body supports my right arm.

I agree. I needs to be mentioned here. Very good movie about a real Cold War era hacker who (probably) committed suicide. Watch it.

Well we won't find out for sure until Mythbusters tests it.

Bilinguality may be a contributing factor. I'm not sure how it's handled in Belgium, but official documents may even be trilingual.

Another great gallery: [einestages.spiegel.de] (article is in German, but the covers speak for themselves)

If you advertise it as a 4G device it should be able to connect to local 4G networks. And it's not like the frequencies in Europe are so different in every country, the LTE standard here is 800MHz and 2,6GHz.

A clever way would be to use letters from another alphabet (which are afaik allowed for second level domains). You could use the cyrillic alphabet which shares some letters that look like letters from the latin alphabet.

Why does chubby American man grind electronics into fine powder?

Anyone interested in an Ice Cream Sandwich?

I must say I'm a bit displeased that Apple markets the device as "Wifi+4G" in Europe although it does not support the local LTE frequencies (800 MHz + 2.6 GHz + others depending on region/carrier).

"profit" - these are just the _estimated_ costs of the parts. There are of course fixed costs like patents, licences, R&D, etc., but also other variable costs for each iPad produced like manufacturing, shipping, licences (per unit).

I have a major complaint! These are "Hands-Ons", and nowhere in these meta-roundup is the ergonomic and tactile quality of the device an issue! We the people want to know: "How does it feel in our hands?"

Reply to promote. Thanks for your input.

Wikipedia and united-domains (a domain name registrar) says it's the official country TLD (ccTLD) of Tuvalu.

But isn't .tv a country TLD? Can the US also seize any .de/.fr/.co.uk/etc. TLD if the content infringes US laws?

Well, there are developments in that direction. [techcrunch.com] would be an example of an actual product that already uses facial recognition for a better 3D effect. Let's not forget that my imaginary scenario would be _at least_ ten years from any commercial use.

I think this technology could be very useful if adapted in video form for 3D televisions. There are several intermediary steps left, of course. But what what puts me off right now in 3D films is the "forced" (and unnatural) focus control. Light Field 3D videos could have all depth information stored in them and…
