This Is Why You Shouldn’t Land A Helicopter Next To A Giant Tent

This Is Why You Shouldn’t Land A Helicopter Next To A Giant Tent:

When landing a helicopter, I guess there are a few basic rules to follow. Make sure you don’t land on people likely comes first, but a close second is probably to avoid landing near things that stand a good chance of getting blown away. This pilot didn’t remember that part.
Apparently recorded in northwestern Libya, this video shows what looks like a Chinook landing at a festival. And ...

Steam launches Android and iOS app for free, in beta

Steam launches Android and iOS app for free, in beta:

Valve today announced and launched Steam applications for both iOS and Android platforms. The app, dubbed "Steam Mobile," allows users to chat, read a limited selection of syndicated gaming news (might we also suggest another mobile app for that?), browse groups and profiles, and purchase games while on-the-go. Like many Valve products before it, the App is launching in limited beta, with only invitees currently able to log in. Snagging the App and attempting to sign in lets Valve know that you're interested, and select folks will then receive an invite should they be chosen.

Company president and co-founder Gabe Newell said the app comes at the request of many fans over the years -- it marks Valve's first foray into the mobile space. "Mobile is changing the way people interact, play games and consume media, and the Steam app is part of our commitment to meet customer demands and expand the service functionality of Steam to make it richer and more accessible for everyone," Newell said.

No news is given regarding the potential for game selling through the Steam mobile portal, but it seems unlikely -- at least on Apple devices -- given various terms of service restrictions regarding competition with the official application stores. Both the Android and iOS versions are available as of right now.

The Optical Magic Of A DSLR In Slow Motion

The Optical Magic Of A DSLR In Slow Motion:

The mechanism inside a DSLR that converts your press of a button to a giant, detailed JPEG is concealed by a click and an instant. But in that instant lies some incredible engineering — watch it all happen super slowly.
The footage, captured by Smarter Every Day, used an ultra-slo-mo Phantom camera pointed at a Canon 60D. With that instant snap stretched out, you can see the camera& ...

Watch What Happens When You Leave A Bicycle Outside For A Year

Watch What Happens When You Leave A Bicycle Outside For A Year:

If you leave your bike on the streets of New York, it’s eventually going to get stolen. Even if it’s locked up. Even if it’s a beater. Even if there aren’t any tyres. It. Will. Get. Stolen. This video shows you the life cycle of a bicycle left outside for an entire year.
The video, made by Red Peak and Hudson Urban Bicycles, actually takes a while to get going as no one tou ...

Blizzard still tinkering with Diablo 3 systems, highlights new changes

FOR FUCK SAKE!!!! HURRY THE FUCK UP!!!!!!!!!

Blizzard still tinkering with Diablo 3 systems, highlights new changes:

For a game that isn't even out yet, Diablo 3 has undergone many, many system changes. Today, game director Jay Wilson has posted a load of upcoming system adjustments, mostly made to systems that have already been changed. A few prime examples include the complete removal of "identify item" scrolls -- characters handle that with a universal spell now -- a dedicated potion button, and Blizzard deciding to rename the Stone of Recall and "just call it what it is," namely "Town Portal."



Another big change, the Nephalem Cube and Cauldron of Jordan (both integral to the crafting system), have been removed from the game outright. According to Blizzard, the two items "detracted from the benefits of returning to town to sell items, salvage, craft, and interact with the townsfolk." It's a lot to take in, especially given how long fans have waited for Diablo 3 but, in Wilson's words, "no one will remember if the game is late, only if it's great."



Head over to the Diablo 3 site to read about these changes (and many others) in more detail.
