A short (~12 minute) documentary on one of the world's greatest problems. Safe for work and little sisters IMO, but I don't really have that much of a problem with the word. Still, the real title "encrypted" for the sensitive.

Your encryption algorithm failed miserably.
I did enjoy the mocumentry though.
I had a good laugh. Thanks for posting.

Why does it take so long, I've been waiting all year! They are just teasing now. 
13.3" i7 haswell, 8gb ram, hi res touchscreen, SSD and GT7xx gpu it is certainly looking like the worthy winner (Samsung have let me down with the spec of their Ativ Book 9 Plus), so just Toshiba's KIRAbook to be finalised now released.
Think the Infinity is winning my purchase so far. (with my winnings from the Ultrabook Article competition earlier in the year no less!)

2560x1440? That's insane. I have a 30 inch monitor that runs at that resolution and I often find things too small on that.
Presuming that its just there to make everything supercrisp rather than fitting more on the screen I suppose its ok but I haven't really seen that on a PC. iPads, mobiles etc. yes.
Edit - thinking about it the 30inch is 2560x1600.

Exactly. Apple started the trend last year with the Retina Macbook Pro; a number of PC OEMs are now selling premium laptops with DPIs high enough for 2:1 resolution scaling now. There're still occasional problems[^] with apps that tell Windows "Yes I know how to scale myself to high DPI so don't do it for me" that only do so partially or not at all; but integer scaling has much fewer issues than other modes.
Edit: Ars did a more detailed review of the issue at one point; but I'm not finding it. The article I linked is mostly about win8.1 changes.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

You think that is insane? You obviously haven't seen the spec for the Samsung Aptiv Book 9 Plus @ 3200x1800! Shame the rest of the spec cpu/memory etc is poor.

My car temp gauge displayed 109F yesterday afternoon on the freeway. That is quite warm.

You have internet access in your freezer? Can I have yours after you freeze?
It was broke, so I fixed it.

I guess I figured that one couldn't get WiFi in a freezer, being that it is essentially a Faraday cage.

My chest freezer (the upright one is a bit too small to fit an adult in) is mostly plastic and insulation... so probably not a Faraday cage.

I have an extremely crowded one.
The only thing that is able to use the entrance in two directions is the Christmas tree. Everything else that goes up has made a one way trip so far.
I doubt I have anything that will ever reach any value up there, although I hold some hope for my VHS boxset of Porky's and Porky's II: The Next Day.
