Test Drive | Here's help finding things on car drive or hard drive
The Vosonic X'S-Drive Pro VP 300 is 40GB external
hard drive that is clunky, cheap-looking, has a crappy text-only
integrated screen, plays MP3s, but not WMA, AAC, or OGG Vorbis, and
can only read from one card from its card reader at a time. So why
would any photographer want it? Because it's cheap, it does the
primary job it was designed to do (act as remote backup for memory
cards), and can accept as many additional 2.5-inch laptop hard drives
as you want to swap into it, meaning that all other things aside, you
can purchase this single $335 drive and continue to upgrade it for
only the price of additional hard drives. Read -

TUG: Hospital Courier Robot
TUG: Hospital Courier Robot07/06/2004 04:59 PM Several readers have submitted today's CNN
story on Aethon's TUG robots
being used at the Magee-Women's
Hospital in Pitssburgh, Pennsylvania. The autonomou robots are used
to move linens, X-Ray film, food and other materials around the
hospital. It's claimed that one robot can replace two or more human
hospital workers,
paying for themselves in cost savings within three years. The TUG
robot is
loaded with CAD drawings of the hospital where it will operate and
uses
dead-reckoning to navigate. IR proximity sensors tracking distances to
the nearest wall help adjust for errors. A wifi connection allows the
robot operate hospital elevators. It can haul
up to 500 lbs. There's also a Slashdot
discussion on this one.

First of all, where did this movie come
from? When a reader recommended it to me last week, I'd never heard of
it before...I thought he was talking about the Cronenberg
film. But it's been out for almost six weeks now and has made $40
million at the box office (on a budget of $6.5 million). Looks to me
it's one of those films where Hollywood finally does something right
and they don't want to tell anyone about it.
I seem to be on a roll with movies lately...first R
evenge of the Sith, then Primer, and now I really
liked Crash. Reminded me a lot of Soderbergh's Traffic crossed with P.T. Anderson's Magnolia. At first, Crash seems to be about
racism, but I think what Don Cheadle's character had to say in the
opening scene is closer to what it's actually about:
I think we miss that touch so much that we crash into
one another just to feel something.
He's talking about cars in that scene, but it easily applies to the
locks, guns, gated & segregated communities, money, racial
epithets, and power structures we see in the rest of the film, all the
technology, money, and power that people use to keep themselves safe
but really just make things worse. From an interview with director
Paul Haggis about the film:
It's an odd life we live in Los Angeles, a city that
uses freeways and wide boulevards to divide people by race and class.
We spend most of our time encased in metal and glass; in our homes,
our cars, at work. Unlike any real city, we only walk where "it's
safe"-those outdoor malls and ersatz city blocks we've created to feel
like we're still part of humanity, if only humanity could afford to
shop where we do. We no longer truly feel the touch of strangers as we
brush past them on the street.

Crash!
Crash!01/19/2004 05:06 AM Last Sunday afternoon Vani and I got hit in an intersection on a small
street by some kids speeding home with their Dominos pizza (does the
youth have no taste anymore?!) Their Toyota got its entire front
smacked away and their airbags deployed. My Jetta got a serious hit on
the side, just in front of the left front wheel. It got hit so hard
that the whole front twisted enough to make the right front door
unable to open...
Dot Com Crash Continues?
Dot Com Crash Continues?07/23/2004 11:03 PM Two very good things that came out of the dot com era are Slate and Salon. One has deep pockets, and the
other has, well, a knack for finding last-minute funding, and both
seems to have survived the dot com crash. Or have they? Well, reports are out that Microsoft is looking to sell
Slate. Looks like the recent cost-cutting measures at Microsoft
has now trickled down to this particular product. I wish all the best
to the people behind Slate, and hope that the online magazine will not
suck after being bought over.

pays to remember that it doesn't always work that well.
