to a photographer these are gear destroyers. that crap gets inside the lenses and everywhere else.
And if the kid did not give them a written RELEASE spelling it out carefully, he deserves what he gets. As a photographer I will do a release for gratis for events, it requires them to sign the release that spells out exactly what hey can do and that they must give me full credit as well as links to my website, and it says that any use outside what was spelled out is a violation of the release.
They must sign it, then they get CROPPED or lower resolution photos, you never EVER give the full resolution raw files.
Making million on music, movies, etc... Those will be the first to die and go back to what their real values are. Mozart was not a billionaire, none of the bards and musicians before the 1920's were filthy rich. THAT is reality, today is a fake reality that is only lucky it did not collapse earlier.
Do it right. your flagship phones, rip that garbage Windows OS off of them and install Android. I would LOVE your 900megapixel phone with a nice clean Android 4.4 on it.
you could get it to market in 30 days, no hardware to change. Want it faster?? contact the Android hackers and tell them how to unlock the bootloader and give them full details on the hardware. You will have android ported to it within the week.
"so you get a lot more ice and snow on the road than you do in northern regions."
Ive been driving on 6 inches of ice and snow in the roads for the past month. Yes this is plowed roads. I have 8 inches of it hard packed in my driveway.
Makes filthy disgusting rick people feel better about themselves. When you make $300 million a year $60K for a conference table is toilet paper money. I dont think you understand exactly how ungodly rich the 1% really are, they can buy and sell your family with the money they find in their couch cushions.
Absolutely. For example how to not do something, how to injure yourself horribly, or like I saw yesterday.....
How to destroy a $60,000 Conference room table by not listening to those of us that know better.
I said several times, you have it marked off wrong you had better stop and re measure. I was told to shut up and they cut the hole, 6 inches off center.
"Are you sure you can accurately measure a high-frequency chopped DC signal with lots of harmonics?"
If that is how they are drawing power from the DC system then it's a major failure, why in the world would they have the headlight system draw power from a battery with high frequency chopped DC signals? That explains why they are dimmer, very poorly engineered. I can see driving the LED directly that way but what silly person would measure that? It is a useless measurement. you measure the total draw including the driver circuitry. so you check at the main power input leads coming from the car's power system which is a steady DC power from the battery.
I think you are confused as to how power in cars works, all cars have a somewhat 13-16 volt steady DC with a lot of electrical noise.
The rest of the world is based on speculation. Please show me one that has real data with real A-B testing, because I have been looking today and I cant find any. Because I would like to know of the headlights of the new car are screwed up and the dealer owes me some free repairs.
IUT's called not being lazy and getting a second job. I worked two jobs to put my kid through private school. 100% of my income from my nights and weekends paid for her school. Plus I was very unamerican and drove a 15 year old car refusing to buy a new one, and lived in a 800 sq foot home instead of the required 5500 square feet that americans deem as required for.
People can afford what is important to them. MOST do not put their child's education above impressing the neighbors with new cars and large houses.
And honestly the economic cross section. it is a reality that lower economic neighborhoods are lower in IQ (united states and 1st world only) because there is a very large amount of developmentally challenged people that live in those neighborhoods because they cant afford $1500 a month rent on their government checks. These people are the 80IQ and lower that are functionally disabled but they honestly can not hold a job and rightfully the government and society needs to take care of them. Others are above that level 81 to 90 IQ that are simply the idiots of society that have a genetic propensity for lower IQ and thus they breed lower IQ children. these children are stuck in the poor neighborhoods and go to these poor schools. The smart kids that just happen to be poor are double doomed in these schools because they are not set up to handle a kid with 110-140 IQ so the kid will get paired with a druggie that is struggling or one of the higher functioning morons and dragged further down. Couple with that the teachers do not want to be there because it's an inner city poor school that has a dramatically higher rate of dipshits that think they are tough and you have a recipe for complete failure. Those teachers need DOUBLE the salary of a rich district to attract good teachers to the schools. But we cant have that.
It is known that poor schools have a far higher number of special needs students as well, so they end up even more strapped for cash.
50% includes half of the 100 IQ people. 1% is an acceptable fudge factor, some claim 48% are below 100 IQ some claim even higher as the average covers a near 50% of the population.
My personal observation of humanity suggests that its 60% that is below 100IQ but that is also skewed by what I see these morons doing on my morning commute.
The source is my driveway. HID headlights on my old car versus the new LED ones on the new car. Old car is insanely brighter and drawing 2.7 amps (35 watts ish) per headlamp when running at 13 volts ( car off running off of battery measured at the battery terminals 12.9Volts) the new car they are drawing 3.5 amps and are visibly dimmer yet the same color. (45.5watts around 4500K based on the known color of the replacement bulb I purchased recently for the old car.
Both cars aimed at the SAME white garage door. the HID lights are visible brighter than the LED. Light pattern is almost identical.
Oh the claimed warm up time is hogwash. I get full HID light within 30 seconds, useable light within 2 seconds.
A majority of young adults are dumb as a box of rocks. and it's not their fault. It's that they had horrible parents that did not teach them anything and went to public school.
Education in the United states is a complete and utter joke. As an adult that went through that system and had to have my father scream at teachers and administrators to do their frigging job, and myself had to do the same thing until I simply pulled my child from the worthless public school system and sent her to private school at great personal expense, I know how worthless it is. They teach to the common moron and we cant leave the dumb kids behind. Oh and we cant dare insult someone , little timmy loves the spegetti monster as his lord and savoir, we cant upset his family teaching that the world was not created in 3 days and is only 400 years old...
Americans are poorly educated, and it has became so bad that todays young adults are less educated than the ones just one generation before because of being PC and how education is the bottom of the barrel budget wise.
It's BMW, they will add heaters to the headlight assemblies like they already do. Heated headlights, heated tail lights, heated mirrors, heated steering wheel. Oh and heated windshield washer fluid.
Then you will hate me. My motorcycle has a pair of 3W red led lights that blink 5 times then go steady for my brake light. It's to make the drooling moron car drivers actually SEE that I am stopping.
The reason tail lights are getting brighter is because car drivers are getting dimmer.
That are actually inefficient as hell. HID still blows them away for lumens output at power consumed. LED's only advantage is a nearly 60K mile life on a car, but replacement is $450 each instead of the $45.00 each for an HID setup, or $4.00 each for halogen.

I agree, that garbage Windows needs to stay the hell away from phones.
Do it right. your flagship phones, rip that garbage Windows OS off of them and install Android. I would LOVE your 900megapixel phone with a nice clean Android 4.4 on it.

You will INSTANTLY gain market share.

Ive been driving on 6 inches of ice and snow in the roads for the past month. Yes this is plowed roads. I have 8 inches of it hard packed in my driveway.
They call that "massive snow"...
I have 6 feet of it in my front yard, and that is not massive. Houghton,MI I have seen 12 feet on the ground. THAT is massive.
Only listeria? They are fake poseurs.
Real crazy fringe goes straight to dysentery.

yes. 49% have an IQ below 100.

Yes it does! Chef Anthony Morley eats people there fore all Chefs are Cannibals.

$500? are you talking the economy model 10 years from now? These are expected to cost nearly $2500 each.
"already efficient LED headlights"
That are actually inefficient as hell. HID still blows them away for lumens output at power consumed. LED's only advantage is a nearly 60K mile life on a car, but replacement is $450 each instead of the $45.00 each for an HID setup, or $4.00 each for halogen.

no it's not, just ask. most of the time people are OK with it unless they are of the unhinged wack job type.
