" in some foreign language" is indeed irrelevant, I don't believe the "some dude yelling" (talking) is however. I've read different studies that suggest talking on the phone even while using bluetooth is severely distracting for the driver.

Andedotally, I've been in cars with taxi drivers who were on the phone when I got in and talked for the entire ride, whilst navigating a city traffic, while also looking at their gps to work out where I needed to go. I did not feel safe in the slightest.

If it ever happens again I'd like to think I could ask them in a polite way to end the conversation or exit the cab, but how?

I think there are free ruby addons you can add to make SketchUp models more printer friendly(adjusting wall thickness etc).

I don't have a link I looked at it a while back now.

I wanted to start up something like this a couple of years ago called BeachBooks or something, reading a waterproof book while floating in a ocean or pool would be unreal. I have no idea how you would ever sell publishers this idea though!

I've experimented with printing to tyvek before on a Canon ipf700 but I was using standard colorjet pigments which do not adhere to the tyvek.

I tried ringing around to see if I could source inks that would work with tyvek to use with this machine, but inks are expensive and i'd probably need a whole new dedicated printhead. In short I gave up.

What kind of resolutions were you able to achieve on Tyvek?

If your garage is getting to 50°C you've got a major insulation problem! Where are you located?

In both cases if min and max operating temperature are an issue it may be best to install in an FIP enclosure and use ducting to keep the enclosure and an optimal temperature.

The diamond still sparkles though, even after a car wreck.

0.5% salt by my calculation is still 2.6 teaspoons (10g) of salt - In 2L of water that does not seem insignificant. When written in terms of percentages it does.

Yeah this could make putting Ikea furniture together alot easier.

I'd settle for that holographic puppy at the end of the video!

Totally agree, i sometimes reminisce about the good ol' days with my Nokia N70 i bought in 2005. Here's some memorable achievements:

- I watched most of the world cup 2006 games live streamed over 3G. -I used to frequently use google maps which without GPS would use cell towers triangulate my position within a couple hundred meter radius. - Used it as a wireless AP -And even uploaded videos to youtube.

When i first heard of the iPhone i wasn't that impressed as i already been using what i considered a smartphone. Obviously i that's all changed now! ;)

I listened to this last week so it's not entirely fresh in my mind, but i remember this particular portion of the story seemed jarring to me and was a disappointing end to the story.

Correlation does not imply causation.

I wonder if their use of "BS" within the pitchdeck gives the impression of plain speak.
