Two Africas? Now how will Sarah Palin remember the capital of that country?

I would have put Kate from Lost instead of Leia. Leia really?

@Darth Meow 504: A field has to form around a physical object. If you move the object, you can move the field. You can pulse the field and get different amplitudes and change the way it interact with other fields, but you can't reorient a field without reorienting the object.

@adaorardor: Most recently this happened to me for "Tideland" the Terry Gilliam movie. In theaters it's 2.35 but on DVD it was 16:9 or 1.85. I think "13th warrior" too on the DVD and Bluray.

Everything will be easier once we invent MAGIC!!!

@Darth Meow 504: That article makes absolutely no sense. A spinning field implies a spinning dynamo which implies spinning a chunk of metal at near-light speeds. There isn't a material known to science which could withstand such forces and only emit "virtual photons" as a bi-product. At the very least, the heat would…

Myth 8 is why I don't help dad with computer problems anymore.

What really shits my pants is when movies originally shot in 2.35 or 2.55 are released in 16:9 on DVD/Bluray. WTF??!?! If you're going to call it widescreen, you can't crop it. That's the deal. It's just not fucking fair.

that's funny because mine is actually running A LOT faster on iOS4.

These things are ridiculously priced. For $450 you can get a proper industrial sized fan... not to mention a very decent air conditioner.

January release usually means the studio has "low" expectations for a movie.

The future looks chilly.

@anAbsoluteLegend: You're forgetting billion dollar stadiums, thousand dollar shoes and hundred dollar balls. Not to mention the million dollar contracts.

@Eric Gallagher: From the back.

@Eric Gallagher: Sorry but you're wrong. If you're going fast enough, you have to lean in to the turn to counteract the gyroscopic forces and the general momentum of the motorcycle.

@ilovetofu: Ditto my iphone. I wouldn't mind it being the same size as an early iPod though. Those things were a little thick but they had battery life to spare.

I hope this trend toward larger means larger batteries as well. I'm sick of running out of juice after a late night out.

@kake81: Great Question. It's because all the systems are electric and you can't really run anything from a the flywheel like in a car. This way the voltage you use from one system won't lower the voltage enough to affect another system. Raising the voltage is like raising the pressure in a water line. The higher the…

As long as it's some sort of growing, glowing phallus, I'm fine with it.

It looks like it's made of jelly.
