Watchout the reddit lurkers might get angry and start replying to hassle you!
The phones are capable of shooting in portrait or landscape and auto-rotating the video.
One would assume when you start the recording process in a portrait state, you want to see it "normal".
Furthermore, how hard would it be for a camera app to display a small arrow on the display depicting where "up" is.
Finally, I don't care about rotating on the phone itself, rotating even on a PC isn't that simple either
For the love of all things holy, can camera software / smartphone software detect if the user has _initiated_ the recording rotated and adapt appropriately?
Alternatively, can we get some simple, easy software which rotates video easily? Pictures are a breeze, video seemingly not. It's 2013 already!
When you say "a very long time" I assume you only mean a generation or two? because this tacky shit wasn't done by any of them a while back. Each model number in a 3xxx series was all based on the 3xxx tech or the 2xx or whatever. Now as you state the top end part in a series is new, the middle end parts in the new series are old.
It's deceptive.
The game is incredible, if you're a fan of the GTA series, they've really addressed many issues with the game. The storyline is told better and more compelling than previous ones (that includes Gay Tony, which was quite good)
The graphics / environment / effects - god knows how they achieved this, I do not know. Yes some things like Uncharted look nicer but they are a very linear closed environment. For an open world game, it's utterly staggering. I'm playing on PS3 and the resolution seems higher than GTA4, there's more detail and there's more you can do AND the draw distance is further. The frame rate while not a flawless 30 all the time seems honestly better than GTAIV at most times.
The humour, satire, writing in general is utterly tip top. I am not cringing at lines or groaning at character decisions. As usual the commercials (billboard, radio, TV) are just fantastic, some of the random one liners amazing. The stuff they've added like the random mission encounters are awesome. I really can't complain about this at all in any way.
I'm about 35 hours into it (picked it up midnight Monday night) and about 2/3 of the way through it I'd say. It's just brilliant, it really is.
If you want to wait for the PC or oft wished for PS4 editions, go for it - but posting in reply here how inferior this is, pointless - the game is great, you can play it right now. If you want to complain that it's crap because "it doesn't do XYZ that Saints Row does" - good for you, hit up Saints Row!
This world blends together so many immersive things, it's just incredible. I love the shit out of this game.
$89 AUD? In hindsight I think I would've gladly paid $189 AUD. Just brilliant.
You can encrypt all you like, if there's a backdoor made for people to access, it's meaningless.
Further anecdotal evidence:
Every person I know who has tried e-cigs seems to feel better and find it's something they can stick with. I'd rather everyone were addicted to those horrible things than the ghastly alternative, at least it's a start.
We have bluecoat in my office and I frequently hit a link for generally something funny and get BLOCKED: ADULT CONTENT warnings. Fact is, in most workplaces EXCEEDINGLY few people are actually stupid enough to genuinely look at pornography on the computers, far more often it's a false match or an interesting interpretation of what constitutes "adult content"
This article isn't worth a damn but it will get your average person up in arms about those "scumbags in Parliament!!!"
Move along, nothing to see here.
I've been using Android since 2.3 and I've got to tell you, the revisions per build are very small and simple to be honest. There's nothing to be excited about. Maybe if you come back every 12 months you might notice a difference but honestly, freaking out over 4.3 to 4.4 is pretty pointless.
I have a Galaxy S4, I love(d) Android and even with 2 fucking GB of memory, the goddamn OS isn't clever enough to prioritise a "primary" core application (my swype keyboard) to always be in ram. I click in a text field now and then and wait from 1/3 of a second to damn near 4 or 5 seconds at times.
Google / Android need to focus more on performance and less on features. I want a snappy, responsive and reliable phone. I've been defending Android online for years as 'pretty good' but I've been in for 3 years now, my phone has 4 cores, 2gb of ram. I really shouldn't have the keyboard taking up to 4 seconds to appear on the screen. Apple have got the end user experience right years ago.

As someone who is quite sensitive to sugar, I can assure you if I avoid the stuff and then go near it again after I'm weaned off, the effects are not dissimilar to taking drugs. This has occured multiple times. Admitedly I believe drugs impact different people in different ways, some people are sensitive to alcohol, drunk very quickly or violent and so on. I suspect I'm more sensitive to sugar than most - but it does impact most people I know.
"because Google has enough good products that simply need iteration now,"
Actually no, Google has many good products that are becoming worse due to fiddling and iteration. Some things should be left ALONE. If you came into my house and fiddled with the layout of the buttons on my microwave, eventually I'm going to break your fingers. This needs to occur to some of the 'fiddlers' at Google right about now.

I've tried many a time to get at the outside plug, it's not always that simple. Ask my ex-wife!
