I commute about 2 miles to and from work each day.
But the Leaf is ugly, the Tesla S is expensive and neither is convertible.
I agree about the Leaf - I'd buy one if they weren't so darn ugly. I'm currently leasing a Honda Fit EV and love it My commute is 48 miles round trip and it can do that twice before recharging (but obviously I just charge it every night when I get home). Biggest drawback so far has been wintertime in Boston - the range drops by 50% when you have to run the heat (so I just drive my Subaru instead).
How would you tell someone to prepare for their first year at Burning Man?
It's absolutely identical to the Gathering of the Juggalos, but hugely more pretentious.
I'd have to say it probably has more to do with being shown the Kennedy assassination tapes prior to the stroke of the pen that put it into action.
More specifically, the Kennedy assassination tapes that were shot from a completely different angle than the Zapruder film and hasn't been released to the public.
You have a good point, but there could be an advantage to your night vision with the camera - since you can limit how much light the screen emits, you won't be blinded by the reflection of someone's headlights But as someone else mentioned, it's important for the screen to properly dim (which seems to be something that eludes manufacturers).
If someone is watching an episode of the smurfs where it is raining, you will notice a difference.
Could performance be improved if Amazon were to offload rendering of the raindrops to the client? I'm thinking if the Roku or AppleTV box had to compute the transparency of the raindrop over the skin of the blue smurfs, it might alleviate these performance hits you're seeing on EC2. Either that or replace the raindrops with snowflakes which are more complex due to every single one being unique, but not having transparency issues to manage might speed things up. I suppose the feasibility would depend on the Smurfs episodes' storylines, however.
