  1. Looks Good http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2012/10/nexus-best-of-google-now-in-three-sizes.html unlocked quad band (GSM) world phone $299 direct from Google https://play.google.com/store/devices/details?id=nexus_4_8gb Maybe this whole Device is separate from network is separate from carrier is separate from contract or (PAYG) (AKA price transparency) will catch on in the US. And people making purchasing decisions based on TCO would spur competition. And with Google voice you can keep one virtual phone number to hand out , and swap physical phone numbers at will ... to what ever's cheapest. Or just use VOIP via wifi ... Nah, that's crazy talk!
  2. Went to Burning Amp, where the weather at Fort Mason was one of those perfect Bay Area days, that you tell the tourists "are always like this" . Ti had been busy. Some interesting Woodwork And a Fisker (That's spelled with a 'K' Steve ) Then back to have some friends round to see the Giants win the World Series, with ice cream! Then show them Gagnam Style on the Big Screen / speakers so they know what all the fuss is about. Now going out for a walk with Jo. A good day.
  3. Stay safe every one. In a bad movie, wouldn't this be the triggering event for the Zombie Apocalypse. Bonus points for best storm related plot point.

  5. Isn't an active three way system obvious prior art, that just happens to be connected to an IEM? How is it different to a DCX 24/96 ? http://www.behringer.com/EN/Products/DCX2496.aspx
  6. Thats Plagarism! Originally by Rick Polito "That TV Guy" in Marin's Pacific Sun http://www.quotationspage.com/quotes/Rick_Polito/ http://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?id=6140305 e.g.s http://www.pacificsun.com/story.php?story_id=5310 http://www.pacificsun.com/story.php?story_id=5644 "Saw II A thoughtful sequel attempts to answer some of the existential questions left hanging at the end of the first film. (2005) IFC. 7:45pm". The Wizard of Oz When they air it at 10pm, you have to think most of the viewers are keying it up with The Dark Side of the Moon.(1939) TBS. 10pm. The Wizard of Oz Magically transported to a colorful realm of talking lions, flying monkeys and emerald cities, a confused girl risks everything to return to a bleak existence as a poor dirt farmer in black-and-white, rural Kansas. (1939) TBS. 8pm.
  7. Happy Birthday Sir! (Something for these austere times)
  8. Surely it it should be Franck "Dangereaux" Badass. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ueaHLHgskkw Does he know "Max Venturi, Lamborghini Test Driver" ?
  9. No UPS's on critical infrastructure (Cable Modem, WiFi Router, Server ...) ? Dissapoint.
  10. With Windows 8 due to launch (what you've missed the glee style '8' advert showing no-one actually engaged in any productive activity) you may need this handy survival guide from el-reg. http://www.theregister.co.uk/2012/10/25/reg_kb_surviving_windows/ Beware Heisenfeature's
  11. Cue video of Justin Rollerblading, Skydiving, playing tennis and Horseback riding in all white, set to a thumping 80's rock soundtrack. Oh wait. http://www.theregist...bodyform_video/

    Sounds like you want a Spatializer. (either in hardware or software) http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/1996_articles/oct96/spatializerhtms2510.html http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=472031357448 http://www.gersic.com/plugins/index.php?daCat=11
  13. How about ​The McIntosh McAire Yours for only ... $3000 http://www.mcintoshlabs.com/us/Products/pages/ProductDetails.aspx?CatId=LifeStyle&ProductId=McAire Oh, and don't forget the stand http://www.mcintoshlabs.com/us/Products/pages/ProductDetails.aspx?CatId=Merchandise&ProductId=McIntoshST1AccessoryStand A Bargain at only $50 (or use an aptX enable bluetooth audio receiver and some (active) speakers ...)
  14. "And for those who are still are stuck in the past, yes, you can get an optical drive; we offer a great [$79] SuperDrive that plugs into USB." Stuck in the past, indeed – he's referring to a past in which you could easily install software from a third-party CD or DVD rather than from Apple's online Mac Store, or watch DVD-based movies rather than ones downloaded from the iTunes Store. http://www.theregister.co.uk/2012/10/23/new_imac_line/
  15. Know any seamstresses? http://www.instructables.com/id/Dr-Horrible-Lab-Coat-and-Freeze-Ray/ http://itssewcreative.blogspot.com/2012/07/a-horrible-pattern.html http://doctorhorrible.net/costumes/ our could you contact this out to some child labor sweat shop and have the result fedex'd back to you?
  16. There are T-shirts on e-bay for < $20 e.g. You could use the savings for the welders gogles, gauntlets + boots .. Googling around it seems other people have run in to the same problem in trying to recreate the outfit for previous halloweens. etc
  17. Yehah!, Time we got the HC crew back together,
  18. This post on el reg appealed to me for some reason today ,,, Re: I will laugh so much... ReBirth is sounded pretty dated now, though. There's far more convincing virtual analog synths around; although ReBirth ran nicely on a 60MHz processor and was amazing for its day. Which was 16 years ago. I would expect some future TB-303 clone to be running a SPICE simulation of the actual circuitboard* And that user interface? What were they thinking? Yes to emulating the TB-303 sound, no to emulating the TB-303 pattern editor * OK, admission time, I tried this. You have to run the simulation at 1MHz in SPICE to capture the oscillator triggers, and there are enough non-linear components that you have to use something like conjugate gradient to solve it, and that puts it out of the 1MHz sample rate even on a 3GHz machine. You could possibly run the filters at a lower sample rate and analytically create the input waveforms though - the SPICE waveforms, even with non-perfect components, are pretty much mathematically perfect. But I digress.
  19. More birthday greetings! (would that make it a bgreet, like a congrat?)
