The first time I saw the picture I could swear it was white / gold. I could see a slight blue hue to the white part but it was more or less white with gold.
After I read another article and saw the dress in a catalogue I read the first article again and it appeared blue / black. I couldn't believe it appeared so differently and had to check I was reading the same article with the same photo again.
I had the same experience. Kind of jarring isn't it? I had even saved a copy of the image when I first saw it (to play with in photoshop) and checked that to be sure someone wasn't messing with me and everyone else and swapping out the image.
We as a species always seem to be of the "believe it when I see it" persuasion but something like this happens and it is a pretty in-your-face example of just how much our own brains manipulate our sensory input before presenting it to us a reality.
So it appears to be linked to the lighting conditions that your eyes are adjusted to when seeing the image initially... even after they've adjusted to the ambient light, the brain appears to stick to the image it created initially.
Here is a pretty good explanation of why this might happen.
Something is wrong. You said "pretty good explanation" but you then linked to Gizmodo. These two things are mutually exclusive.
We have had Cola for generations.... However the health conditions that we blame it for, have been on the rise just recently.
I see the use of Corn Syrup being a bigger factor than blaming Cola.
Corn Syrup, increasing portion sizes, a shift to low fat, high carb diets, labeling bad fats as good and good fats as bad.... The past 50 years has not been a good period for nutritional science.
Windows 365 is a follow-on to Office 365, it seems. Will Windows 10 be hosted on a cloud?
That's actually a pretty good guess. Microsoft hosted VDI would not be outside the realm of possibility.
If my phone is running Android OS, then I should be able to get updates straight from Google.
If that's what you want, then BUY A PHONE FROM GOOGLE.
You mean like my Google Galaxy Nexus that is stuck at 4.3 because Google abandoned it after 18 months, and therefore won't be getting this exploit patched?
It's worth doing some reading, to understand the differences between the switch types. Here's a good description of three of the switches. You likely don't want the really loud ones - I recently bought a keyboard using Cherry Brown, which are tactile, but a bit quieter - it's still loud enough that my officemates had to get used to it, but at least they didn't kill me.
A lot of the sound from the mechanical keyboards with non-clicky switches like the Cherry reds and browns is from the keys bottoming out. You can add rubber o-rings to the keycaps to get rid of that bottoming out "clack".
being asked to power up devices is not new at all. I had to power up my laptop on a flight sometime Fall 1998.
Yea but after 9/11 and all the reviews of airport security the "power on your devices" thing was dropped because at the time all the experts said it was useless.
And yet here we are today.... I'm just waiting for the day when you have to ship all your luggage a day ahead of travel and fly in paper hospital gowns.
If these problems occur, they usually begin soon after the shot and last 1 or 2 days.
