That lens is even more impressive, it has a 210º FOV! Yes, it can see behind itself.

Oh God, your comment made me realize that I haven't eaten tortellini in way too many years. When I was living in Spain, tortellini where by far my favorite kind of pasta. I am currently living in Japan, where they are either extremely

You are talking about embedded or industrial control systems, which are always funky. I am talking about normal software and websites that a normal person needs to interact with on a daily basis. For example, go to any random Japanese websi

I live in Japan and sadly, I can confirm. Anyone who has to deal with Japanese IT systems knows that they are crap.

I think that the current state of the art is 224 Gbit/s with PAM-4 modulation, which means 112 GHz :O It is intended only for the highest end network gear, the range is very limited, and requires very special and expensive cables.

I remember that back in the xDSL days we had never-ending discussions about interleaving vs fast-path. If you could enable fast-path, you could reduce your latency in half, but not all ISP supported it and your connection would be more sens

Yes, all NeoGeo games have the size printed on the box, but I guess most people have never seen a physical NeoGeo cartridge. I think it was also quite common for Master System games, but not so much for other consoles.

What is more impressive is that Mario 64 itself was a measly 64 megabits (8 MB), already tiny for its era. So this version is almost double the size of the N64 original! Question: does anybody know why the size of old cartridge games where

It is not "a small fraction of the population", pretty much any city other than Tokyo and Osaka suffer from ridiculous urban sprawl. Sure, Tokyo and Osaka are huge and together they hold half the population of the country, but the

I am talking about about cities of almost 300k people. Look for example at Aomori city, it has a small downtown of around 1~2 sqkm, and then a million houses scattered everywhere. And in any case, I am from Spain, a country were even small

That is only in the big cities like Tokyo or Osaka, as soon as you step out of them Japan quickly devolves into awful American-style urban sprawl and you need a car for everything. Source: 5 years living in Aomori.

Really? I live in Japan, last month I had to fill my taxes, and I found the process to be really convoluted and annoying compared to my home country (Spain). Likewise, banks feel really obsolete and inefficient here. I shudder to imagine ho

That is exactly my point. Having to manually download and run the installers, plus keeping up with updates and patches, was the standard 20 years ago, but it doesn't cut it anymore. Plus, if you play in Linux, now you need to fight wit
