If they have a product, they should use actual images of those. Their homepage has fake pictures, done poorly. The man boarding a train? Probably not their market, and his reflection in the train clearly shows no "transformer" scooter. The lady in the airport? Looks like an out-of-place runway model, with unnaturally straight features. Man by the bus, he also has some unnatural characteristics. I understand using props for marketing, or prototypes. To do "press releases " with poor photos is bad form. Then again, I'm not sure who will use this product either, and if it exists beyond a designer's computer.

It depends on how devious the killer is... they may use the home address to kill your dog, kill your spouse on your anniversary, and then off you at a class reunion.

Who would bother to ask Sony if they could play games they purchased free of charge? I would be surprised if Sony allowed that- the whole idea of this is a new revenue stream.

The parent that reported the kid is probably the parent of one of the bullies... so their child's safety was at stake. Nothing like a parent showing their kid another way to permanently fuck a life up.

The only thing cool about this article is the pictures of the sailboats in the linked stories. Especially the one about the "Amazing AC72 Boats". I didn't realize a sailboat could get up out of the water like that- that is some impressive engineering.

No God-

that's Easy, Just Tell The Owners That Their floormats Cause The Problem, And Fix It While Those Are Being Replaced.

The reason the cameras were ruled illegal in Springfield was because of the way the tickets were handled- the City treated them as administrative, and not criminal, infractions. While this avoided "points" against your insurance / drivers license. At the same time, as an administrative hearing, there was no appeals process and the evidence for a "conviction" was below the thresholds of a criminal case. The State Supreme Court ruled that the infractions were in fact criminal, and as such the City had to change the way it handles cases. To my knowledge, the cameras are still not used.

Also, Springfield shortened their yellow lights in an effort to "standardize"- http://www.thenewspaper.com/news/17/1759.asp

It depends- for example, my wife bought me a Nook Color a couple years ago from Staples, and bought the protection plan. About 3 months ago, it wouldn't start. I called Staples and within 2 hours my wife had an email from Staples with a electronic gift certificate for the original purchase price. I replaced my Nook Color running CM10 with a Google Nexus. I bought another protection plan for the Nexus based on that experience.

There are other products I don't purchase them for (such as video games or toys for my kids), because the failure rate is very low, and I'm not into throwing away money.

My thoughts on your (potential) need for a 3D printer is to chose what technology you want your enclosures built with (from the sound of it, using FDM to extrude ABS). From there, find someone / somewhere in your local area that has a printer on par with your budget, and see if they will print you some enclosures or what it would cost. Quality of printers varies widely, and it is good to evaluate the technology within your usage and price point. You also need to consider the product's end-use - if you use milled aluminum today, is 3D printed ABS a viable substitute?

I checked out the article and website, but there are not pictures of parts printed with the system. Was there no proof-of-concept, just a few photoshopped or empty shells made for these product images? On the other hand, it does look nice, although with 3D Printing looks don't matter that much.

The W530 is "mandatory" with the tech side of our business, but has a good reputation with them- they like it. I just ordered more T530s to deploy to our Sales, replacing aging T61ps. We'll see what they say. We have one ThinkPad Edge, and that's the only one we'll ever buy. For my use, I've liked the W530, but I don't use a laptop every day.

We started with the T61p, then W500, W510, W520, and now W530 at work, and that line has done well for us. The switchable graphics in the W500 sucked- we ended up giving that to an office worker, and used the T61ps for engineers. We also deployed a T530 recently, and it was still built in the "traditional" style. We purposely avoid the "consumer" style ThinkPads, and the clit mouse is a must.

It makes me wonder, reading some of those reviews, how HP can claim they didn't know that Autonomy wasn't worth $10 billion. The reviews go back years, and in general would convince a prospective employee to think twice.
