I ordered my Nikon D800 immediately after Amazon put up their preorder page. Just got an estimated delivery date of Jan 13, 2013!
So you got the overnight shipping option, right? After waiting that long, you don't want to have to wait until Jan. 15 to begin using it. - Stephen Mack
My new sorting technique is abelnoppstu. (re @joshu)
GMaps #protip: Append a placename in parens after the address and GMaps will remember it. Start typing the name next time for autocomplete.
Nice! - Stephen Mack
Will it become part of my personalized search results? - Brian Johns
Also also, my car has prefs.
Didn't you back up? - The original Kevin
Crashes are more likely when backing up. - Kevin Fox
Reset your car's PRAM. - Akiva
Maybe you just need to fix permissions. - The original Kevin
No Time Machine? - Tinfoil 2.0
What's the car equivalent of the three finger salute? - ronin
Every time Kevin starts his car, it makes the Mac salute. - Akiva
ERROR [Unspecified Kevin]: Abort? Retry? Restart? - The original Kevin
GURU MEDITATION ERROR (crossing the OS streams here). - Akiva
My car got a complimentary software upgrade during its last service. I really wish they'd included release notes. Also, my prefs got wiped.
Kevin, this was a pretty big update. I found the release notes on the web site. I've copy and pasted a few and I'm sure others can contribute some as well. - Stephen Mack
* Following feedback from customers, we've returned to the default of a clockwise rotation of the steering wheel moving the car to the right. We apologize for any inconvenience introduced by the last update's reversal of this preference. - Stephen Mack
* Under rare circumstances when travelling at freeway speeds, the car might suddenly travel in reverse. This has been fixed and should no longer occur. - Stephen Mack
* Stereo system update: The car will no longer allow Katy Perry. Any such music will be automatically replaced with silence. Also, the car will no longer hum along tunelessly with Arcade Fire songs. - Stephen Mack
* New feature: Truly intermittent windshield wipers. Switching on the intermittent windshield wiper function will insert a random delay between wipes of anywhere between 1 second and 1 year. - Stephen Mack
* GPS/Nav system-enabled units routing drivers to Wisconsin will no longer favor travel via underground river systems unless that is the most optimal route. - Stephen Mack
Being a follower of neither the Grammys nor pro basketball, I feel like all the social networks have been usurped tonight.
RT @ebertchicago: What would video look like at 120 frames per second? http://blogs.indiewire.com/thompso...
I've gotta think (hope) that Apple's putting together an a la carte system where users ditch cable and pick/pay for the channels they want.
I'd love to see someone do an end run around cell phone companies. It would be nice to have a service where you could choose your hardware independently and bring it to them to be initialized on their system (mentioned because I think the way cable has gone in the US is as anti-consumer as the way cell phone networks have gone). - Spidra Webster
Most of the media disruptions in the last 10 years have involved eliminating obsolete layers between creators and consumers.

"Whitney" was one of my first CDs as a kid. Back when buying a CD meant defining the music you'd be listening to for the next 2 months.

Ooooh, hadn't quite gone there yet. My next thought was for bathroom mirrors, or changing room mirrors. You could dynamically adjust what make up or hairstyles would look like, or adjust the color of a shirt, see if a store has more in stock or in different sizes, etc. - Jennifer Dittrich
