What a microsurgery manipulator can do these days

nock says...

DaVinci robot systems have mechanisms that eliminate hand tremor, which would otherwise make this task much more difficult.

The Long Game Part 2: the missing chapter

jesus was a buddhist monk-BBC documentary

xxovercastxx says...

To be believed or not, I find these sorts of stories to be a lot of fun.

If you agree, I suggest getting hold of a copy of Gabriel Knight 3, one of the last classic Sierra adventure games from 1999. It deals heavily with the themes of the Knights Templar, Bérenger Saunière, and Rennes-le-Château.

Oh, and vampires.

4 years later a <sarcasm>largely unknown</sarcasm> book would appear with a very similar plot: The Davinci Code.

Best Buy vs Newegg - Funny Yet True

Darkhand says...

>> ^Psychologic:

>> ^Darkhand:
>> ^Psychologic:
If the customer can't read the listed specs himself then he probably won't do much better at an online store.

The point is when you ask someone for advice your expecting them to NOT have to read the specs.

They should have the specs of every laptop they sale memorized? Would that include benchmark numbers and compatibility issues as well?
Edit: Realistically though, if the employee can't glance at the specs for 2 seconds and then answer the question then they shouldn't be working there.


I think you're missing the point Psychologic the humor is flying over your head or you're taking everything very literally I'm not sure.

When I went to home depot a few weeks ago I was buying a lawn mower. There was an "Expert" in my isle (Just like in Best Buy if you ask someone who works in the cellphone section to sell you a computer they will say you have to get someone in the computer section).

I asked him if he could tell me the difference between two mores. He proceeded to read to me, verbatim, what was written on the little cards they put in front of boxes on the racks.

When someone comes to me and says "What's the difference between these two" and you have to read off the cards, and then you can't formulate an opinion of your own such as the gentle ginger pictures in this video, it's obvious you have no business selling anything in that department.

If he has to read the specs that intently then he obviously is going to look at you and say "Well this one has more gigabytes then the other" Wow great fucking insight Sherlock like I couldn't figure that out by myself when I READ THE STICKER. Like these "sales people" posses some sort of Arcane Knowledge about the English Language that enables them to find some sort of Davinci Code within the Best Buy Sticker.

Plain and simple if you can only tell me the difference by checking what's on each sticker and then NOTHING MORE you're doing a BAD JOB.

Man meets escalator

>> ^EMPIRE:

I am fascinated by technological clashes.
One of my favorite fantasies would be to get in a time machine, and go pick up Leonardo daVinci or Jules Verne, and take them for a tour of our technology.
Am I a hopeless nerd? lol


So basically, Bill and Ted?

If you showed them the "fleshlight" or internet porn, they'd be erased from the history books.

Tron legacy: New trailer

Sagemind says...

Thanks for the education - but now you've ruined all future movies for me...
I didn't even get to choose between the blue pill or the red pill
>> ^volumptuous:

Yes of course I don't like the colors.
It's not only because the original Tron was BLUE vs RED. But also because every film coming out the last five years or so has done the overused bullshit Orange and Teal color grading nonsense.
Look, before a film is in the can, it goes through a color correction process done on a multi-million dollar machine called a Davinci, with a colorist controlling the whole thing. This process is used to do corrections on bad saturation levels, making sure teeth aren't yellow, and making sure skies are blue. It's also used to heavily influence color, do tricks, and re-color shots in creative ways.
But, lately the directors have been going nuts with ORANGE & TEAL. Don't believe me?
http://theabyssgazes.blogspot.com/2010/03/teal-and-orange-
hollywood-please-stop.html

This is the color-grading equivalent of a photoshop lens flare.
I've done massive amounts of telecine/divinci color correction sessions, and have worked as a color designer for many many years. Color is my specialty, and is the biggest reason why I ever get hired on projects. So when I see one of my favorite feature films of alltime being shit on by the easy hollywood hack system, I get a little offended.
