So many fingers to pinch!

I usually sneeze into a 3-4 times folded handkerchief, fold it one more time to contain the mess and put it in my pocket, and my hands don't get wet. As a kerchief user, it seems odd to go one ply.

In a pinch I'm a fan of bend over and sneeze straight at the floor, elbow is my second choice, straight into the hand is only for the most awkward of positions when the others are not feasible.

Aww you're a grumpy lil' thing aintcha *pinches cheekies*

There just isn't anything particularly interesting about it. It has the same over-stylization as Snyder's other films, combined with a few metric tons of historical inaccuracy and a few pinches right-wing jingoism.

sugar is a natural preservative - it has been used to make just about every relish known to man in order to compliment and balance out other preservatives such as strong acids in vinegar and of course saltyness.
Tomatoes in particular can be very acidic and it's common to use sugar to even out the taste as some varieties of toms are more acid than others and there will be varying ripeness.
Ketchup is a concentrated tomato paste so you are getting 'refined' sugar from somewhere - e.g either added or from sugars in the sweet tomatoes themselves.
I'm not saying that there isn't too much sugar added to food, but there is a reason for using it in cooking. If i'm making home made ketchup - it often needs a pinch or two of sugar to mellow the acidity.

"Gabriel, pinch Giovanna's dress."

I'm guessing her dress needs straightening.

Exhibitionism, seasoned with vitamin deficiency, a pinch of anti-social behavior, and perhaps a dash of self-injurious tendency?

Bitch, Whatever.
Yer fucking unhealthy?!

Ahhhh to be a dairy cow. So carefree and duty driven. I wonder what it feels like to have four of your nipples constantly pinched, your milk squirted into buckets by weird bipedal mammals that you cannot comprehend.

You're still getting a little too excited. This is a simulation. None of this is final. But even the promise of this does not obviate the need for a phone, The interface certainly does not have the richness of a phone. And I've not seen them suggest this is a phone replacement.

There are areas where it will struggle:

Simply being able to see a large amount of information from the device and without interfering with normal sight. With my phone I can read quickly and then be back in the real world by looking up. I don't see myself reading reams of data with this thing. I'd love to try though!

The interface is different/more limited. You lose haptic feedback and long-presses to expose different functionality. I'd love to see how good a feature-rich note-taking app will work. Voice-recognition is the most likely use.

But voice recognition remains difficult and performs variably.

And nothing to say of how slow it might be to change networks, adjust settings etc. Many things might be locked down to ensure a smooth experience for the average user.


So, integration (or how Glass will be useful).

Glass will serve as a nice entry-point into the phone experience. You could open the notifications in Glass but you might want to focus on recording some video.
Or you hover on a film poster and have IMDB open up the details on the phone. You might have a lot of these moments in a day. Imagine building up a list of pictures, quick ideas/notes, something useful someone said and then take your phone out only when you sit down. Everything is there for review. Glass might be a very good inbox.

I could instantly sync my photos. It's thus backed up on the phone straight away (and later on the net) and could be auto-shared - I don't need to issue copious voice instructions. Same with video. Glass will gather data but you might want it to hand stuff off to the phone. And net access isn't always guaranteed.

Looking up real world objects, scanning barcodes, even raw data and have it converted into usable data. You could hold up your phone but it's a nicer experience to have a document rendering onto your phone while you look at a page of data or even take a phone call. And you don't have to get the phone out of your pocket. Multi-tasking for the win!

I view pdfs and spreadsheets on my Note 2 all the time. I've not scanned much because it seems hit and miss and there's no cool software to do much with it. This would be amazing with my laptop. I often get printed documents or scraps of paper. Being able to instantly scan and digitise on the go would be almost revolutionary.

The point is Glass will be a very useful *extension* of the device you are already carrying around. Which people will be carrying around for many years to come.

I hope it's cheap as chips because getting it pinched off your face would be fun

S'called long-pig and if ya had the right hunger and seasonings you'd probably adjust if you had to in a pinch. Personally, I'd forage and sprout and the occasional rabbit, squirrel, possum, turtle or nutria, which are all quite tasty. oh and fish, frogs, snails, and snakes-You can eat all that and not feel guilty, as long as it's not STARING AT YOU FROM THE PLATE!! Fuuuuk!

This thing sounds like a balloon, when you pinch the valve and stretch, to let the air out in a squeak.

Come to think of it, the shape is right, too.

There is no way to get to the lounge. speaking of the lounge, there is too much space between the main chat window and the chat input box. Via iPhone 4S. I miss lounging and reading comments(only one page of comments, wtf?) on my lunch break.

Edit: you can not pinch and zoom.

The headbanger on the left better be careful not to get that abundance of hair pinched in his squeezebox!

Seems legit (see below link). Apparently works because it's so thin and therefore has such low mass, and yet it's still latticed graphite. It has all the conductive properties of graphite but flattened to 1 atom thick. So we're talking about capacitance per kg (grams in practicality but kg is SI) and when you get a bunch of them arranged into a capacitor, you'd have more capacitance for the mass of your capacitor than with an ordinary one.

(that's straight from the wikipedia reference)

As a side note, if it's sciencey and you can't find any pdf or some sort of publication on the matter then take it with a pinch of salt. Conversely a pdf or publication doesn't make it true
