Still More Inspiration and Meta Sites, Because They're Out There

The most frightening part of that ad campaign is the realization that they can now use practically 100% of the interior surface area of commuter trains for advertising now. Excepting, of course, that obscured by the people inside.

This is not inspirational at all. It's meta. It's so very, very meta - the post is the content.

It's the QR Code for Fenspace.net, or perhaps the url for the image of the qrcode on fenspace.net....

If those are bomb-pumped lasers, I don't want them anywhere near Stellvia... lest we duplicate episode 26 of the source material.

Not bomb powered. Capacitor powered. Ten beams that combine into a single large beam.

How would they manage that? I mean, the only two ways to bend light (and thus the only way to merge beams) are refraction and gravitational lensing. Refraction reduces the light's frequency, introducing issues of ensuring every beam is the same wavelength. Gravitational lensing requires planet-sized masses at the very least, and to merge beams with it would require several precisely arranged. Both methods have timing issues: how do you make sure each beam is precisely in step to avoid interference? I can't help but think that it would be far easier to just build a single ginormous laser.

*A few moments later*: Having read the article, I can't help but think they're actually going to focus ten very powerful lasers on the same point, and this whole "super laser" thing is a PR deal. It should achieve the same result. (Which in my poorly-informed opinion won't be anything spectacular. Pair production from photon-photon annihilation isn't anything new, and reading through the enthusiasm, that's exactly what they're trying to make happen.)

Funny how that looks an awful lot like an iPod Nano on a wristband. I should know because I'm wearing one now.

Wonder how they combat the constant battery drain the Bluetooth radio would present. My Nano, which has no Bluetooth can last about two days with heavy use (about six to eight hours a day).
