Normally, your convergence and focus operate together.
With 3D imaging your convergence varies but focal point remains the same. No where outside of viewing a 3D image will your eyes ever experience such a scenario.
Interestingly, artificial 3D is the only 3D I've experienced. I've been stereo-blind for as long as I remember, but recently I read Sue Barry's book and found out my eyes converged properly within four inches of my face. So I was able to experience depth by using anaglyph glasses and an iPhone held really close to my nose. I began converting 3D movies to anaglyph and watching them on my iPhone, gradually moving it away from my face. Now I can see 3D at about a foot away, on a laptop screen.
When I am finally able to diverge my eyes properly at a distance, I hope real world 3D doesn't give me headaches like normal people do when they watch "artificial" 3D movies!
I bought a 32Gb mSDHC card a few months ago on Amazon, and I received a "32Gb mSDXC" card, complete with fake Samsung packaging, that on a better inspection turned out to be an old 2Gb mSD card with hacked firmware to show up as 32Gb to the host system.
These guys are obviously very good at what they do, but not very ambitious; they should direct their talents towards coming up with a fake 2GB card that stores 32GB of data.
When you can rewrite it with software? Not all progress is good. I want to see black hat types remotely reprogram ROM chips and UV-eraseable EPROM chips from the 1980s.

This is safe as long as there is only one such service in existence. As soon as a competitor launches a rival AI that does the same thing, any query to the first will cause the first system to query the second system, which then turns around and queries the first, causing volley of questions that leads to the meltdown of one or both data centers.
I'm not sure I agree with that statement. If you believe, as I do, that our genetic code is a type of program, than by your argument our own intelligence and free will could be dismissed as being impossible to arise.
I think your sentiment is better phrased as, "if we manage to program a general intelligence, we will not understand how it works."
get a credit card and charge $100 a month and pay it off. or charge your living expenses and pay it off simple
And make sure it's a cash back card;) I've made thousands back in rewards and never paid a single dime of interest. Credit cards are a scam; make it a game to see how much you can scam out of the scammers!

Well, at the equator, the Earth rotates at about 1000 mph underneath you, so your car has to go at least 1075 mph when driving west to exceed the speed limit. 100 mph is nothing... you're practically moving backwards.
I'm sure this technology isn't cheap. They should make it so once it penetrates a target it comes out the other side and flies right back to the sniper so he can reuse it on the next target -- otherwise it's a waste of some pretty expensive technology!

I'm sure actual furniture in traffic would do wonders too. Nothing stops traffic like a beat up sofa in the middle of the lane.
I, for one, am looking forward to watching my DVDs with 10x10 pixels per pixel.
So you 3D print an object at one location, thereby converting it from bits to atoms, and then you send the result via the post to another location?
I think there is a more efficient way to do this, but I can’t quite put my finger on it...
How does Google Glass compare to Gorilla Glass or sapphire? How far can I drop Google Glass before it shatters?
I hope it comes with a pivot stand for landscape and portrait mode.

Won't work. People are too shallow now a days. We might as well be living in Abbott's Flatland.
If those are tech support jobs, then they might as well automate them.
I think it would look something like this:

Why encumber your wrists? What we really need is a device that you keep in your pocket and you can pull out when you need to check the time.
It can be called the iPocket Watch.

I'm working on a machine to bring Morse code into the digital age. Please back my kickstarter campaign.
Thank you.
If it smells like Tide and fabric softener, it must be laundered money.

Yes, a soda can can; that's why it a soda can and not a soda can't!
I was thinking the same thing. Who comes up with these names? Patriot Act, Freedom Act... what next? Utopia Act? Life-is-Good Act? Sex Act?
It turns out that spying on Europe is perfectly legal in the US after this law passes, and that spying on the US is perfectly legal in Europe. . . .
Lucky for everyone's citizens, no European country and the US are incredibly close allies.
Are you saying the NSA is going to outsource spying on Americans to our allies? We can't allow this; we need to keep jobs right here in the US.

Loking at those pictures, while bad it was probably survivable if he had been wearing a seat belt. It was being ejected that killed him.
It was the sudden stop after being ejected that killed him.

I guess they can also charge him with "leaving the scene of a crime"
Why just charge him when you can supercharge him?
