    Just wait until a face transplant costs under $25000. Then you got yourself a business plan!

    I also thought I'd take a look. Clicked on "Sign Up" button and caused a server application error. It's probably the Slashdot effect, but perhaps they don't want MY credit card. *sigh*
    Anyways, Here's the error, looks like IIS to me.

    Runtime Error
    Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.

    Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "Off".

    Yes, the perfect learning environment for us! That way we can go to another country and learn how to boss them around by giving them orders! "Command and control" based language works well for gaming, but it is hard to keep the playability when switching to other types of dialogues (I.E. Greetings, Shopping, Restaurants...). There are hundreds of immersive and interactive language learning programs out there, but they don't market to handhelds because they aren't really playable as far as a gamer would demand. Even the ones for PocketPC and Palm don't do that well because the environment isn't that great for learning.

    What implications does this technology have for image recognition and processing? Does anyone know enough about both image / object recognition and photography to offer some insight?

    Would it require rewrites of current algorithms or only simple modifications? What would be the added benifits?

  5. Re:I'd take a backup of my backup. on Condensing Your Life on to a USB Flash Drive? · · Score: 1

    I was stuck in the middle of a lake for two hours with a Kingsford. Took about three days to get the water out of the plastic (drip-dry), but after that, it worked just fine and still does.

    What about not giving the password on the grounds that it might incriminate you?

    Which, of course, begs the obvious question -- if they're both contributing IP, will they both be charging royalties and price the technology too high?

    Yes, and if they both force it, is it possible to monopolize on this kind of thing?
