I wish I had upvotes for you.

I am a power user. I'm currently surrounded by two very powerful PCs... rather a high-end 'docked' mac laptop dedicated to development work and a frankenstein's monster BYOC dedicated to gaming, Watching and converting video (-- Anime junkie) and artwork.

I also own a little Samsung Android tablet. Despite the mobile development workstation, I use the ever-loving snot out of that tablet. I use it to watch video I've converted for it, read books and magazines, browse web while seated in my nice club chair in the living room, have a reference site up while console gaming, and art. Turns out that Autodesk has a VERY nice painting app for $6. Works beautifully with cheapy capacitive styluses.

I consume the vast majority of my Crunchyroll subscription on it (more anime and manga).

However, I don't use it at ALL for email.

So yeah, mobile matters.

Do Germans eat crow with bratwurst?

They are about to get an ash-kicking

no, they are too busy writing Windows 8.2

...I'll threaten to shove its chips up its fanhole if it doesn't let me in.

Experiment on Venus first.

God already did. It didn't go so well.

Before? You mean her.

Well, your DIY lobotomy didn't turn out so well.

If they can make hurricanes only hit denier neighborhoods, I'm all in!

The infingers fatfingered it

Odd, I typed in "current location of nblender's girlfriend" and got the same thing.

No, there's nothing average about goat-se

I'd like to see one that constructs a 3D model. Perhaps it could use a genetic algorithm (GA) to breed a 3D model that can best represent the most actual specimens of the target object type.

It may be a lot of computations, however, because one is not just running genetic algorithms, but also rotating all the candidate 3D models and lighting conditions to see which best fits the actual specimen images PER GA candidate PER specimen. Perhaps a 3D thumbnail version can be used to for initial placement estimations to be fine-tuned with a fuller model.

Then you got spot and texture variations within specimens. You have to model varying textures, not average them out. But even if it ignores texture & spots to simplify things, a 3D shape model result would be cool.

Somebody read "Take the" a bit too literally.

I don't get the flat design. We have all that graphics capability now, yet are going back to the 80's GUI look? What's next, pixellation? I like shadows and gradations and metals and wood and marble and textures; screw the flat fad. (Excluded temping jokes about "flat chicks".)

And get off my lumpy, textured lawn!

(Well, okay, a Trek NG GUI would be cool...for a while.)
