    I didn't see a single photo what is the point of this? Those tiny things could have been anything and just random polygons on the ground...

    So it takes multiple pictures and turns them into a 3D environment. My question is, why does every building look like a bunch of dots? The pictures people take of buildings are much bigger and should provide more detail no? Or is it only using the 2D images from different angles to determine the 3D shape of a building without providing detail?

    @Purple Monkey Dishwasher: I don't know exactly how it works with this, but when using stuff like Boujou to make a 3D scene from video all it produces is a 3D cloud of dot's, the barebones shape is there still though, but it doesn't knock out a 3D model.

    @ddmeightball: Yeah, I made contact with his hairdresser, she gave me the hookups in exchange for setting up her wireless internet. I set an old boombox in her back room and gave her a speak-n-spell, told her it was the Facebook. She seemed happy with it.

    So, yeah, the candle light vigil in Ponies! honor is set for the 12th. You still gonna bring the purple tunics?

    @OCEntertainment: Just what I need - people summoning me.

    Next thing you know, you guys are going to want me to go around smiting Digg and Engadget and Facebook.

    Well, just so you know - my sacrifices call for slaughtered hogs, an offering of the bounty of the ocean in the form of bushels of shellfish, and barrels of fine distilled spirits.

    Do not confuse me with other gods. I don't want any slaughtered bullocks or oxen or hinds nor do I want wine. Pork, shellfish and liquor only! Also, don't try to offer me a kid boiled in its mother's milk. It's not that I'm Kosher; it's that goat meat is nasty.

    Also - no virgins! I don't have the patience to teach some confused 16 year-old girl her way around my bedchamber.

    And WTF about Purple tunics? I thought we agreed at the last meeting that we were special ordering the purple snuggies with our user names stiched on the back and with hoods? That's what I ordered anyway.

    Colonel Kang, your report.

    Well, the Earthlings continue to resent our presence.

    You said that we'd be greeted as liberators!

    Don't worry. We still have the people's hearts and minds.

    @qbrad: Not always true. If you're the memorable ensign you just end up a foil for everyone else's shenanigans, possibly get laid by alien girls, then probably die way later in the series. Overall it's not a bad gig.
