"It's genuinely cool to see double tap work with not just my index finger..."

Going on that, I'd say it's double-tapping a finger (on the hand attached to the wrist the watch is worn on) on some surface and it detects the specific movement.

Possibly even an air tap, so you don't even need a surface.

Comment Hmmm. (Score 2) 44

I get emails from spaceweather.com when solar flares and coronal mass ejections (particularly X-class) are detected, or the sunspot acidity is such that a flare is likely. This gives a lot more notice of potential problems than a few hours, using existing satellites and solar observatories such as SOHO, and has done for years.

What is described in TFS is the same as putting a weather vane on your front porch and complaining you don't get much notice of an incoming tornado, oh noes, what can we do, the sky is falling. Best get "AI" on it, that'll sort it. Give us money.

Because real balsamic vinegar can only be made in a small region of Italy, so yeah, it costs 10 times as much because you have to import the stuff. So the cheap versions have some cocktail to attempt to make it taste the same and add caramel as a colourant. At least in EU. I hate to think what horrible shit is put into "balsamic" in the States to make it brown and slightly gloomy.
