eBay’s large retail screens could make ‘window shopping’ more expensive

eBay's large retail screens could make 'window shopping' more expensive

You might argue that eBay is a virtual store of sorts already. But — according to reports — the auction giant is planning a new spin on the term. Reuters claims that eBay plans to place 9-foot by 2-foot screens in closed retail units in a variety of locations around New York. The idea being that real shoppers will be able to paw at the virtual stores through the glass, and have purchases delivered to them in under an hour — ideal for those who just can’t wait. There’s already one client onboard — Fith & Pacific Companies — which plans to use the screens to launch a new fashion brand without having to kit out physical stores. The firm does plan on furnishing actual bricks and mortar outlets eventually, but won’t ditch the screens after. Instead making them a permanent fixture in-store to add items that aren’t always available in current stock.

Large Hadron Collider stops for two years of tune-ups, goes out on a high note (video)

Large Hadron Collider goes silent for two years of repairs and retrofits

We’ve long known that the Large Hadron Collider would have to pause, however that does not take the edge off of the moment itself: as of Valentine’s Day, the particle accelerator has conducted its last examination for the next 2 years. The big research ring will undergo sweeping repair works and upgrades that must should give it the superconducting connectors had to hit the originally planned 14TeV of combined crash energy, against the 8TeV it’s been restricted to nearly because the beginning. CERN’s machine probably earned the downtime. After a rough beginning, it went on to produce rafts of crash information and in great condition proof of the evasive Higgs boson. If you’re still down, think about the hiatus as doing us a favor– it postpones any world-ending disasters till around 2015.

YOU FOOLS: Large Hadron Collider To Be Testing High Voltage Collisions On The End Of The Mayan Calendar

large-hadron-collider-apocalypse.jpg

NOTE: Old article, April Fool’s joke. Actual testing schedule HERE. Boy is my face red (I’m trashed).

Despite all my hoping and praying, the world isn’t going to end on December 21st. Or at least it wasn’t going to until the scientists at CERN decided to test the Large Hadron Collider that day! *breaking out party hats and noise makers* Apocalypse party!

Scientists at CERN have announced test dates for the rest of the year, as well as some curious dates can be found in the upcoming schedule. Starting Monday, December 17, 2012 and going through Friday, December 21, 2012, CERN will be launching and running a series of collisions, which are predicted to break records in high voltage collisions already set by the LHC. With these experiments, the scientists are hoping to create atomic reactions that would provide further information about anti-matter, and the big bang.

Hell yeah, the end of the world! It’s just like that R.E.M. song. “It’s The End of the World?” What? No — Losing My Religion. Get your head in the game, brobro.

Thanks to joe, who — wait, where you going with that gun in your hand? (Jimi Hendrix reference — this post turned into a musical extravaganza!)

Watch this: ‘Decay,’ a zombie movie made by physicists and filmed at the Large Hadron Collider

Decay movie

.

Zombie movies are a dime a dozen, however Decay, a whole movie released free of charge online today, supplies an uncommon setting for the surge of the living dead. Decay was shot on area at CERN by Luke Thompson, an University of Manchester physics Ph.D. student and first-time filmmaker, and its plot injects zombies into the search for the Higgs Boson, which was likely discovered earlier this year. Other physics pupils and at least one teacher round out the small cast and crew.

.

In lots of ways, Decay is basic B-horror, however the dark tunnels around the Large Hadron Collider produce some exceptionally nightmarish scenes. Thompson also hopes that it will satirize prominent perceptions of science– the LHC, particularly, has actually been the epicenter for …

RIM’s Large Bet: BlackBerry 10 Extended Demo Video And Hands-On Impressions

bb10-demo

Right here at CTIA ’ s MobileCon in San Diego, me and associate Chris Velazco got to rest with RIM ’ s Jeff Gadway for some extensive BlackBerry 10 hands-on and function demo time. We shot the uncut video above of the most recent OS out of Waterloo doing its thing for over 6 mins, then he handed it over to us to poke and prod on our very own for some quality time.

Exactly what we discovered was a mobile OS that has a great deal of appeal, and that actually felt quite far along in regards to its level of completion (as you could see above, it can easily go continually for rather a while without revealing indications of pre-release jitters). I ’ d heard lots about RIM ’ s gesture-based navigation “ Movement, ” however it ’ s hard to comprehend the sense of rhythm you fall into with it until you ’ ve in fact put it through its paces. Also, the camera features, including the ability to choose better frames for specific faces and elements of a shot, feel incredible in practice, and they have a clear usage value instead of seeming like novelty gimmicks.

BB10 ′ s predictive keyboard is also a very outstanding attribute. Gadway told us that engineering actually spent a ton of time getting the rewarding click sound simply right, and worked to ensure that the keyboard was both receptive to crucial taps that happen in quick succession and even overlap. It even finds out, recognizing commonly mis-typed letters and adjusting the hit zone for those secrets over time so that if someone is consistently hitting R when they indicate E, for example, eventually BB10 will anticipate which they in fact indicated to hit, even if where they ’ re physically tapping doesn ’ t change.

Yet another huge star of the BlackBerry 10 keyboard is its predictive capabilities. These shone in our examinations, offering next word suggestions above specific keys prior to anything ’ s even typed. It ’ s actually a little frightening exactly how well it can easily work, and could be good fodder for a grammars graduate thesis in my opinion. Natasha has a good run down of specific attributes, if you ’ re trying to find even more detail about any in particular.

There are still some big questions about the OS, around search for instance. We inquired about how it ’ ll work throughout the OS and web, but Gadway stated that part still isn ’ t being discussed outside the business. I additionally noticed some slowness when it involved loading the BB10 internet browsers, and Gadway ran into some problems getting the camera app to bunch, though those essentially seemed to work themselves out.

Long story short, this is a mobile OS that could and does impress, and when RIM states it supplies a basically different approach to mobile computing than other options currently available, that ’ s not just blowing smoke. Nor is it simply the PlayBook experience ported to a phone; it ’ s significantly better than its tablet prototype, in my opinion. However at the very same time, webOS was also an outstanding, unique platform that won a great deal of early fans in the tech world, and we all know how that story ended. RIM is certainly in a very different position vis-a-vis the smartphone market than was HP, nonetheless, so BlackBerry 10 ′ s fate is far from an inevitable conclusion.
