Grand Prix Night!

Karl von Moller on September 29th, 2008

Singapore was gripped by the excitement of the Formula One Grand Prix. The first ever night race was truly exciting to watch. I caught up with my good mates Kim Lim and Bruce Watt down at Chijmes for drinks, racing and a little food. Bobby’s is a bar that’s become my local when in Singapore. [...]

A Chameleon Sky

The sands of time are running out for the central star of this the Hourglass Nebula. With its nuclear fuel exhausted, this brief, spectacular, closing phase of a sun-like star's life occurs as its outer layers are ejected and its core becomes a cooling, fading white dwarf. In 1995, astronomers used the Hubble Space Telescope to make a series of images of planetary nebulae, including the one above. Here, delicate rings of colorful glowing gas (nitrogen-red, hydrogen-green, and oxygen-blue) outline the tenuous walls of the 'hourglass.' The unprecedented sharpness of Hubble's images revealed surprising details of the nebula ejection process and may resolve the outstanding mystery of the variety of complex shapes and symmetries of planetary nebulae.

Samsung suggests Galaxy Tab will cost between $200 and $400 -- also coming to Vodafone UK 5 September, 2010
Early reports indicate Europe will pay a pretty penny for Samsung's Galaxy Tab, but the 7-inch tablet may cost a good bit less when it comes to US shores -- the Wall Street Journal paraphrases a Samsung executive who claims it could run between $200 and $300 depending on the all-important carrier subsidies. The Korea Times, meanwhile, suggests a $300 to […]
PS3 jailbreak adapted to Nokia N900, Palm Pre in wake of Australian ban (video) 5 September, 2010
Two weeks ago you'd have to pay an Australian importer for a specialized USB key. Four days ago open-source software let you roll your own. Today, there's no need for any of that -- you can hack your PS3 with a tethered smartphone. Working closely with the PSGroove team, hacker Kakaroto adapted the same jailbreak to the Nokia N900, and the open-sou […]
Toshiba fulfills your need for speed with UHS-I SDHC and microSDHC cards 5 September, 2010
Panasonic must be mighty annoyed right about now, because Toshiba's seemingly got it trumped -- when the first batch of lightning-quick UHS-I cards ship in November, Toshiba's chips will be faster and larger on day one. As you can no doubt see immediately above, the latter company's fielding full-size SDHC UHS-I cards at up to 32GB that promis […]

As of press time, no word on when it'll be updated to use unleaded gasoline. Chris: "It'll be available at local dealers mere moments after you finally stop wanting it. […]
Panasonic HDC-SDT750 3D camcorder preview 5 September, 2010
THREEE DEEE. Sorry, just had to get that out of our system. We just played with Panasonic's HDC-SDT750 THREEE DEEE, er, 3D camcorder, and it certainly works as billed. The lens is designed for close-up depth perception in the 3 to 15 foot range, and doesn't have any zoom capability. Luckily, it isn't too hard to pop the screw-on lens off, givi […]

HP “Happy Boss” is complete 2 March, 2008
Returning back to Singapore, I completed the DC7800 HP TVC entitled “Happy Boss”. The job involved massive amounts of 3D, with a very complex “factory” set having being constructed completely out of 3D by Blackmagic Design in Singapore. It looks amazing! The guys worked tirelessly for a month on this, constructing every mechanical component as if they were a […]
