This is really freaking cool. You just have to try it and listen. Change the 'channel' on the left. Every channel is a different lip synced version of the song. Pawn Stars, Price is Right, Sportscenter and a bunch of others.

News: Omni-directional treadmill allows you to walk in game
This is exactly what we have all been waiting for. When you play, you use a joystick to move the character in game. This treadmill will allow virtual reality gaming where you actually walk around. Jumping is still button based, but a pretty good step forward I think.
I just hope I don't jump through the thing.

Cool: Chess boxing
Yes. It's a real thing. Yes. It would be an easy assumption that I would be good at such a thing. Saldy, I am not very good at chess and even worse at boxing. Getting punched in the nose SUCKS.

Hey! That's interesting. I'll be happy if they revive it. It was a good system.

Means that phone makers (including Apple, Samsung, and Google/Motorola) can make a single phone that works on all the carriers (Verizon, TMobile, ATT, Spring) networks.

News: Pope to resign at the end of the month
Citing health and old age. Wasn't he already old? Was he hoping to have a short stint and take the long box out? Now it's gone on too long and feel guilty about having the job? Odd.

News: Consumer Electronics Show ditches CNET after CBS scandal
From the article: The once beloved and suddenly beleaguered tech-review site CNET will no longer select the official Best in Show awards at the Consumer Electronics Show because of its ethically questionable situation with parent company CBS, which censored CNET's top award at CES and subsequently invented a conflict-of-interest policy based solely on the interests of CBS.

News: Retailers start passing credit card surcharge to consumers
Not sure why I care so much about the credit card process. But, I do.
Credit card retailers charge merchants a percentage of the transaction (plus a flat cent fee). Starting today, merchants can now pass this percentage fee on to the customers who use credit cards.
This is rather unfortunate, though somewhat inevitable. Maybe this will discourage some people from using credit cards and get them back to debt-free cash? Which is bad for me, since I would REALLY like to get to the cashless system.
When will the government start its own credit card processor, one that's fee-less? You decide to regulate everything else based on the commerce clause...how about you regulate ACTUAL commerce?

News: JJ Abrams, new Star Trek director, to direct new Star Wars
Yeah. WTF.
I mean, it wasn't that good to begin with.
Having not seen the newest Star Trek (or, really, any of them), I can only go on what I've heard. And, I've heard that JJ is all about flashy action with no heart. That doesn't sound like Star Wars. The whole franchise is built on the story and personal relationships and fault lines between characters. Unless you count the Star Wars prequels I guess...which were bad. But, I guess if you want to repeat that 'success', he's the right guy.
News: Cisco sells Linksys, home networking unit to Belkin
Hmmm. Don't have confidence in the Belkin brand. This will be interesting.

USDCNY: Twitter pics cannot be used by commercial entities
Even if a picture is posted on Twitter (and possibly re-tweeted by others), it CANNOT be used for commercial means. A ruling on technology use I can FINALLY agree with.

Sad: Computer activist Aaron Swartz committed suicide
He was indicted for mass-downloading documents from JSTOR, a massive online journal of academic papers. He fought against the system of hiding intellectual knowledge behind a paywall, despite the research being paid for with public monies.
He also happens to have created the RSS 1.0 specification and was an early co-owner of Reddit, a popular online community news site. He truly stood for letting the world be smarter than it was...and left it dumber without his presence in it.
