Say what??? There’s some hubbub about Hollywood casting white people in this popular manga and anime “Ghost in the Shell”. They want to cast Margot Robbie (of “Wolf of Wall Street” fame) as Motoko. What say you?

True 4K resolution Blu-rays are coming
http://www.blu-ray.com/news/?id=14923
My god, why? I’m just getting used to standard HD (720p or 1080p). Now they want to sell us 3840 × 2160p x 60fps. Sure, things will look more lifelike, but I can’t imagine anyone having the time to appreciate it. People work, people are busy, they really don’t give a rat’s ass about ALL THAT RESOLUTION. Who really needs that kind of resolution besides feds and surveillance junkies? Even porn failed to sell this new tech, and they even tried 3D HD!
Well, we’ll see. It’s becoming more like, who cares? Try telling a decent story for a change rather than just peddling a better looking picture.

Telepathy Experiment Sends First Message Across Great Distance
http://news.yahoo.com/telepathy-experiment-sends-1st-mental-message-222701481.html
I’m embarrassed by the comments on that article. People are still in denial. Or, they’re the ones doing it. Mind invasion. It’s real. It’s about absolute population control. Forget what those loser scientists claim that it’s for the greater good. Every movie that Hollywood makes now is literally stolen from someone’s dreams. Literally. That’s why you better start thinking like a hallucination to throw these losers off.

Doritos Crash The Superbowl Ad Contest Rules Says Can Steal Your Entry And Not Give Credit
By Chongchen Saelee
http://www.doritos.com/crashthesuperbowl/toolkit
https://s3.amazonaws.com/ctsb-production/footer/CTSB+Rules+%26+Details.pdfSo Doritos brand tortilla chips runs this contest every year to draw in user-made ads that aim to play during The Super Bowl. BUT, you have to read their fine print. Check this little cheat in their official contest rules (link above, can be found via their official website, also link above):
By entering this Contest and uploading your Submission, you irrevocably grant to
Sponsor and their agents, to the extent permissible by law, the unconditional and
perpetual right to post, display, broadcast, publish, use, adapt, edit, translate, dub,
and/or modify such Submission in any way, in any and all media, throughout the world,
for any purpose, without limitation, and without notice or consideration to you.You know what that means? It means that if you submit an incredibly awesome ad that you came up with all by yourself, starring yourself, then Doritos can steal your idea, or use some Hollywood hocus-pocus and erase you out of it, or do whatever, and not have to tell you anything about their con.
That’s some shady stuff.
Why not just say: make us a commercial for free? That million dollar prize is just to trick you to make us an awesome FREE commercial, of which we will profit off of.
ALWAYS read the fine print.

How To Track Down Jennifer Lawrence Nude Pics Hacker
How To Track Down Jennifer Lawrence Nude Pics Hacker
By Chongchen SaeleeIf you haven’t been informed, apparently a hacker has unleashed a collection of nude pics of female celebrities via 4Chan. The hacker seems to have obtained the pics from iCloud or some kind of cloud network that these female celebrities subscribed to. Most of the pics’ context involve them in sexting or post-coital states of undress. Some just look like selfies. They look authentic, and two of the compromised actresses (Jennifer Lawrence and Mary Elizabeth Winstead) have confirmed they are real. The Mary Elizabeth Winstead ones look tame and intimate (the context she claims she shot with her husband), so that one looks convincing. But the Jennifer Lawrence ones don’t make sense. Was she a prostitute? She looks exploited in some of those pics. If they were during sex, they sure are strange. If you’re an actress, you’d only pose like that for a man that was a real bad boy. Think Pamela Anderson via Tommy Lee.
So that leads me to the real point of this post. Who posted these pics? (more…)

Dude Makes Homeade Exoskeleton Suit
http://www.engadget.com/2014/08/31/homemade-weightlifting-exoskeleton/
The dude can lift up to 170 some pounds “easily” but as I watch him do it, I noticed that it would be physically impossible if he didn’t already have the legs to support the weight. It’s all physics. He mentions this at the end of the video that he wouldn’t be able to lift 300 pounds. That defeats the purpose of an exosuit. You shouldn’t require your own effort. The Japanese and DARPA already have one that look like a folded out toilet but that one looks too clunky and slow. Cool effort though. No real reason anyone should ever need one in day to day life.
