Yep. Learned my lesson in Minecraft one too many times.

HDR Kitchen [1024x806] by pcekin RoomPorn

[–]simucal 2 points3 points ago

I haven't really been following the whole HDR thing. Why do some photographers think it is ruining photography?

Are there any professional cooks here who can tell us some tricks of the trade to make our cooking easier, faster and tastier at home? by bonestampin Cooking

[–]simucal 5 points6 points ago

I like putting all my ingredients in tiny little bowls just like on the cooking shows.

Years of cyberpunk, then the Count of Monte Cristo this Summer; just finished The Stars My Destination. Mind = blown. by zimianin scifi

[–]simucal 2 points3 points ago

Does anyone know of any other novels that are similar in style to "The Count of Monte Cristo" and "The Stars My Destination"? I love good revenge novels.

I almost passed out when I saw this anti-rape device. by zetratein WTF

Reminds me of the device in Snow Crash.

Hot Wheels "Back To The Future Time Machine" (best toy purchase I made all year) by genrewhorein shutupandtakemymoney

[–]simucal 1 point2 points ago

I remember going to McDonalds when BTTF 3 came out and the toy was a toy car similar to this one that had sparks shoot out when you pushed the car forward. Did anyone else have one of these? In retrospect it seems kind of dangerous really... but man it was awesome.

Apple investigating fuel-cell-powered MacBooks by RMFT89in apple

[–]simucal 3 points4 points ago

That would be an awesome idea. The key feature of this is the possibility this laptop could run week(s) without needing recharging. That could be very useful. I don't care if I need to inefficiently charge the laptop at home by generating my own hydrogen. I just want a one week 'charge' on my fuelcell.

Reminds me of Sneakers.

The brave little medic that stopped the cart and won the round. by AGaryGazAppearedin tf2

Nice, thanks a lot. Are there any maps with optimal sentry locations marked on them?

Demoknight Frag Highlights by R_Williamsin tf2

[–]simucal 1 point2 points ago

I know the Demoknight doesn't get a lot of love around here. But I still find it pretty damn fun to play once and awhile.

Where would a better location be? Just wondering.

Harry and the Hendersons for life.

So you want to be a programming consultant? by mycallin programming

Can you elaborate some? How did it slingshot your career then put it on hold?

Forget Siri, *this* is my favorite feature of iOS 5 by Randolphoin apple

[–]simucal 2 points3 points ago

I spent several minutes thinking that some new virtual function implementation detail was your new favorite feature of iOS 5.

One of the best talks of onGameStart I've rarely seen such a good explanation of basic 3D concepts. by mariuzin programming

[–]simucal 1 point2 points ago* 

I found the slides. It makes this video watchable even with the poor camera work. Most of the slides have interactive canvas examples. Pretty cool.

Well, that's one website I'll never have to visit again... by neilpomerleauin technology

[–]simucal 7 points8 points ago

Siri is actually some pretty neat technology built upon the DARPA funded CALO project. Even though many of its ideas have been around for a long time, its current implementation will likely be the first major commercial success.

The original iOS app was much more full featured than the current implementation of it found on the iPhone 4GS. Hopefully more 3rd party integration will make its way into future versions.

I am looking forward to seeing innovation in this space from other competitors in the near future as well.

[–]simucal 326 points327 points ago

This is the future of search.

For fact-based queries users simply want a direct answer from a data source they can trust, not a list of possible search results. Movie times, flight times, sports scores, math equations and weather are all examples of this.

Anything that Google can answer directly within a reasonable certainty, it should. This is also why Bing calls itself a "Decision Engine" instead of a search engine. Because they provide a lot of queries with in-line answers. It is the same with DuckDuckGo.

Search of the future looks more like Watson-Siri then it does Google-Bing.

This is why you always have a female hygienist in the room at all times.

I got held up and shot a few months back. They left the bullet in. It's now coming back thru the skin. (Warning a little gross, no blood) by Snizzlefryin pics

When it comes out you need to have that bullet made into a necklace as a constant reminder of your badassery.
