LEDs suck less than CFLs. They draw a bit less power and don't have some of the other CFL trade-offs.
A bit less? LEDs use 1/20th as much power as incandescents. I replaced half my light bulbs in my house with LEDs and it's not only brighter than the CFLs were, my electric bill is cut in HALF. Now if I could only replace my fridge, stove, dryer and dishwasher with the same power savings I'd be paying nothing (since I own some of the solar panels on the Seattle Aquarium, they pay me for the electricity used).
Most of what makes for a good looking video has to do with subject tracking, slow pans, good lighting, image cropping to avoid distractions, sound quality and levels, and things you're never going to see from typical users of this device.
If Yellowstone erupts, it's the end for the USA. And even if the country by some miracle survives, it won't have the resources to waste on either playing superpower or gathering data "just because". It would be hard pressed to even power the data center.
I think you mean the beginning of Cascadia or Ecotopia. Most US GDP in in the West, and we're mostly green, so we should be, for the most part, fine.
So... the flyover states that produce our food would be wiped out, but NYC, DC, and LA would be spared. Great.
News flash - since you'd all be gone, we on the West Coast would be perfectly fine, having adequate water and soil and bumper crops - and since we make grains, and have these new things called indoor hothouses, we wouldn't miss the flyover states.

Actually, they did defund NIH. Our rents and other costs went up, so this is below sustaining level.
But that's in the real world, where cybersecurity gets Trillions that goes unremarked while real science gets fractions of pennies on the dollar.
So, you like getting dementia in your 60s then?
Considering we live to our late 80s now, that's going to be fun for you!
Trillions.
There's your budget hole.

Not only did they get rid of the phase out of incandescent light bulbs, they defunded the West Coast high speed rail.
Trying to drive us back to the 17th Century, yet again.
There are no 'leftists' in US politics. You only have extreme right and moderate right, and there are very few of the latter.
True. What passes for left here is regarded as right of center in most countries.
What passes for far left is what most countries call "moderate".
We knew this day was coming.
Nobody made the US the center of the Internet.
Pull the plug.
At least he didn't reload.
If any part of the research was funded by the feds, they have to publish it electronically on the national open access publications databases.
Maybe someone else can post a link to that copy?
I'm busy, but it might be easy to do.
Just asking.
The lips carry a stain, the breath is of a dragon, The breath is a warning.
In a way you're right. But you still have to wait for the stable bug fix release, so that means 9.11
Remember Windows 3.11?
That's the version when they strip out the useless chrome and get a stable release using the feedback from InfoWorld.
Really?
I thought those went out of fashion last decade?
Are you sure you didn't mix up the announcement for Microsoft Bob 9.01?
Considering that banks are shedding employees like mad and only hiring temps, why is this surprising?
Put two of these back to back and you do have 360 x 360 degrees. ZOMG!
720 degrees of satisfaction!
So long as there are no jail terms for execs, and the penalties remain (and they are) a fraction of what they made, Google will keep doing this.
Remember what it says in the Google charter: "First, Be Evil".
These cameras are usually used for outdoor sports. The lighting tends to be good enough and, being sunlight, is out of the control of the sportsman.
Sunlight ... you've never been to Oregon, Washington, BC, or Alaska then, I take it?
We have entire months when it's grey and cloudy - and we do more adventure sports than you do.

I'll wait for the 2040 rewrite, thanks.
They'll just let the NSA know that the national password is 'bacon' and it's back to spying as usual.
Foolish American! Everyone knows the password is "toque".
And the adminstrator's password is always "centre".
Extradition for murder is only done when the US DOJ agrees that the death penalty will not be sought, since Canada has no death penalty.
However, expecting you can commit crimes and go unpunished is a different question.
The US Constitution - as you no doubt have figured out by now - doesn't.

Yellowstone super volcano is a planetary killer - or best scenario: many, many, many years of the equivalent of nuclear winter.
Think of it as a refreshing bath and disinfecting by the Earth.
