MadCatz's Xbox 360 HDMI Conversion Kit up for pre-order {Engadget HD}
Dec 19th 2007 6:12PM I believe it's main advantage is to allow the Xbox to send a 1080p signal to your TV when playing an HD-DVD... or for those who are utterly convinced that 1080p is superior to 1080i or that HDMI has better signal than component (I'm not say that it is or isn't--I don't care enough to "notice" either way).
I've run into a few TV's that won't accept a VGA input. Also, some haven't figured out how to use the Video Level setting so they still think VGA produces washed-out pictures and won't use it even if its available.
MagShoe, the "portable footwear weapons detection system" {Engadget}
Dec 4th 2007 2:01PM I'm glad someone finally brought up El Al. They have the *best* track record for security of the entire Airline (or perhaps Transportation) industry. Most of their security precautions aren't even visible to the general public! But instead of spending our security dollars on real improvements, we waste them on untested gadgets produced by worthless security vendors.
El Al came up with a novel concept decades ago... It's called threat profiling. You evaluate threats based on a profile that has MANY DIFFERENT DIMENSIONS and is CONSTANTLY UPDATED to meet the current threat. Maybe the rest of the world could learn from this.
Instead of using these worthless random screening or a static 1970's profiles or single-dimension profiles (such as race), we could actually do something that works.
