Generally a pinhole camera is very light insensitive due to the small amount of light let in by the pinhole, but multiply the number of pinholes to amplify the image and use a super sensitive sensor gathering from each pinhole, and it seems like it would yield some amazing results.
You assume they are being actively piloted. The could be following a waypoint program in which case the only way to "jam" these would be to jam their GPS signal.
From what I've seen so far (and I can't unsee it now, thanks) I think it's going to get pretty monotonous (plot wise, the acting is already there -- I'm looking at you... Dawson.) Find tech device, scroll quickly through color-coded binary dump, extract an IP address, trace address, bust down door... rinse, lather, repeat...
I would like to see hyperspectral capabilities added to regular cameras and then algorithmic rendering of the spectra as overlays to the visual layers. This would be useful say in smoothing skintones by blending in data from the infrared range (or similarly for lightening foliage.) The only problem there would be that focal point for different spectra is different, so it would have to be a multishot merge (like is done with HDR.)
Also, with the Tesla model dealerships don't really work. Every car Tesla sells is made to order. There is no inventory sitting around at dealerships. The customer orders exactly what they want and it's made to order. This is very different than a traditional dealership where the dealer buys an inventory of cars then turns around to sell it to the customer.
Yeah it seems the only reason you'd want to go to the dealership would be to look at the car and maybe get a test drive. Tesla should crowdsource this to their user base. Maybe they could receive a spiff off of their yearly maintenance fee for demoing the car for prospects. What Tesla driver isn't going to want to show off their car?
Everything else from optioning to ordering could be handled online.
I prefer eBooks for pleasure reading because of the convenience of packaging mostly. I like the fact that I can take a whole library of books with me and choose which ones I read on a whim. Reading for pleasure is also a serial activity where you read through the book from start to finish with very little back flipping. For studying however, I prefer the physical books as you can dog-ear, color-code post-it, highlight sections for quick reference. Yes eReaders have search and bookmarking capabilities, but I just don't find it as convenient as going back to my yellow post-it half way in the last chapter which I've scribbled with a keyword.
We use Google Docs. The documents a live on the central server and there is one version which everyone can simultaneously access. All updates/changes to the documents are logged and you can revert changes very easily.
Market saturation has been reached for me. The newer generation of tablets don't really provide anything new in terms of functionality. The two I have do everything that I need them to do.

It worked for Mark Watney.
... verify me.
Just imagine a thousand of these things coming at you with a gun. The birth of Skynet.

If Jimmy Hoffa surfaces... then you'll have your answer. Bogs were a convenient body dump.
... Zuckerberg should release his own version of the exchange before they go live.

Jury's out for me until I can sample it. Might taste like bacon, but I doubt it'll mimic the texture of bacon.
Certainly Bruce Willis should always be on-call...
I'll bet "heisenberg" is the unlocking password.

Yup, 15 years on mine and still going strong.
Apple was part of the consortium of companies endorsing the mini-USB "standard". But did they use them in their devices?

Yes only Yelp is allowed to doctor your reviews by burying your negative reviews for a fee, everyone knows that.
Is there going to be a militarized version which drops other things?
I suspect we'll continue to see the decline as home systems get better and better and more affordable than ever.

I think Frozen said it best... "Let it go, let it go..."
