    didn't the Man read the text Philes from teh 80's and realize that it was only a matter of time until us 10 year olds grew up and made a mass-producible car accessory to do this?

    99% of my time spent at work is reading slashdot and adding backdoors / easter eggs to the code base.

  3. Margaret Cho? on Ideas Unlimited: 11 Suggestions for New Inventions · · Score: 0

    I think instead of asking 11 different people, they should have just given all the space to Margaret Cho because her fractured take on modern life lends me a new perspective that may often be humorous, but is always insightful. That and her fat face reminds me of Prednisone.

  11. noo!!!! on Titan AE Distributed Digitally · · Score: 1

    It's disappointing to see so many people excited about the advent of digital projection in movie theaters without examining both sides. It reminds me of the debate about marijuana, where the proponents go totally overboard, wildly advocating unfounded benefits and telling stories about Thomas Jefferson, while their opponents don't do much better. Digital projection is fine for home use, since it's mostly affordable, lightweight, and puts up a decent picture. But if you were familiar with the home theater enthusiast's domain, you'd know that their holy grail is to find a "film-like" image. Even Roger Ebert's best endorsement of a projector was for one CRT based ("looked like film"). More interesting is the idea of running film at something more like 40fps. Roger Ebert saw this and was floored by the improvement over traditional 24fps film. One of the great benefits of this approach is that retrofitting existing projectors is easily affordable; I'm thinking around $5000. Also, it's easy to retrofit existing cameras. I don't know anything about business or money, but $100,000 for a single new digital projection system just doesn't sound right.
