In March 2023, I backed the SeeAir Tankless Dive System on Kickstarter. Compact, battery-powered underwater breathing gadget. Polished renders, a slick video, spec sheets that looked legit. $362 for the dive unit and a couple accessories. Seemed fair.
I Aftenposten i dag kan vi lese at Arbeiderpartiet vil slavisk følge Danmark på å innføre 21 års aldersgrense for familiegjenforening. I Danmark er grensen 24 år, og det har blitt bare store mengder tull av det fordi det slår ut foskjellig og det er masse bråk på tinget om det. Folk vil ha det bort. Arbeiderpartiet vil vi skal inn i den samme ulykken.
Question at Chromasia regarding a canon 20d photo
This article is a good introduction to neural nets in PureData: Written by Arshia Cont, Thierry Coduys and Cyrille Henry.
Where do the lines go for what's too much intrusion into someone's life? This guy has found a memory card in a taxi, and says: I am going to post one of your pictures each day. I will also narrates as if I were you. Apparently so that this person can get back to him and reclaim his/her memory-card. Why does this remind me of blackmail?
Left a question about iWork for Sun
Now I'm sure, I'm buying a Canon 20D. I discussed the camera with the corner-photostore guy who also just ordered one, and he said an interesting thing: don't get the lens. Apparently, it's giving rounded off images. Now, I don't have the worlds most fancy 28-80 lens on my EOS 500, but I've never had a problem with lenses. So, I went to look for some reviews. The lens in question is a EF-S 18-55/3.5-5.6 (here reviewed by photo.net). I guess my main point is having one that I can get close enough with, as my trusty 28-80 will become a 45-128 lens. Thus 18-55 should overlap nicely, and I really shouldn't need to go for the 17-85 lens. The conclusion from photo.net comes in the beginning of the article: it's good enough. Right. I'm not an expert. If I was, I'd buy the Canon 1MkII or something. Done deal, I can't afford the other lenses. (Interestingly, I haven't found any packages with a 20D and a 17-85 lens)
I've been working on installing PHP5 on client webservers the past couple of days, and with some help that's been going all right. Much I've read has been on the merits of PHP5 vs PHP4, little have I read on user experience. So here's my first experiences with PHP5 and commonly used PHP packages:
With the release of
Mozilla Thunderbird 0.8 and Firefox 1.0 preview, the problem with Desktop Manager and CodeTek Desktop Manager are gone. For the past two release it has been beyond belief hard to input any text into Firefox and Thunderbird, to the point where I've gone back to Apple's Mail and Safari. Now I can use both Mozilla products again. 
According to AppleInsider, Tiger is adding
an option to encrypt memory when its being swapped to disk. If swapping wasn't a performance drain already, this will be. Unless, of course, "encryption" is an XOR thingy or similar. (I automatically assume strong encryption )
Great point of entry into ongoing discussions about Skype: privacy, VoIP, statistics, infrastructure.
