I missed instrument chat but I've got to throw this guy in here. The Eigenharp Alpha Each of the keys is sensitive to direct pressure, but also to lateral pressure in both directions, so you can program in pitch bending on individual keys. The sides have touch sensitive strips, so you can simulate bowing. And there is the wind controller. The entire thing is programmable so you can do things like use a set of keys as a sequencer then play simulated sax on top of that. The craftsmanship on them is excellent, although I haven't had one plugged in to be able to noodle around on. Cost $5900, but I'm not sure if you can find them anymore.

Is Ford Sync failed technology yet? It works fairly well with my Nexus 5 but shits itself when my fiancee tries to connect her iPhone 5. The worst part of it is that the loving gigantic console on my Fiesta doesn't look like it will lend itself well to just replacing it with a better SatNav/touchscreen option. This poo poo is ridiculous

Gann Jerrod posted:It's not so much a failed technology as it is a complete scam, but I remember seeing a lot of commercials for reception booster stickers back when cell phones were becoming commonplace. I worked at a mall phone kiosk in high school and these things cost us like $0.30 each. My boss said if I could sell them on a cash transaction I could pocket half. I used one and it worked great, you have to stick it on the battery though, not just the outside of the phone, if you want to test it out I'll pull it off my old Razr and send it to you for $20.

Grumbletron 4000 posted:Are the laserdisc versions of the star wars movies still the best ones? By the best I mean the highest quality versions that don't have that goofy extra poo poo Lucas edited into them. This DVD set has the originals on second discs as special features. I wish I had kept my copy in better shape after seeing that price.
