02:26:00<chronomex>I saw that, the design is quite interesting
02:40:00<Lord_Nigh>the local hackerspace around here built a different book scanner using two digicams and a bike brake assembly to hit the triggers
02:40:00<Lord_Nigh>Honestly i'd ratehr have used two cameras and chdk firmware with electronic usb triggering, much simpler...
02:43:00<Coderjoe>I have to argue otherwise. the bike brake assembly is simpler, because you don't have to use any specific camras
02:48:00<Lord_Nigh>yes but it ends up getting misaligned and you might not notice that it missed a picture of one half
02:48:00<Lord_Nigh>and those bike break things are finicky as hell even on bikes
02:48:00<Lord_Nigh>*brake
03:05:00<chronomex>hmm
03:05:00<chronomex>the google one that slides back and forth though
03:06:00<chronomex>full-auto
03:17:00<Coderjoe>it looks like a big meat slicer
03:28:00<chronomex>yeah
08:21:00<SmileyG_>so nice

22:56:00<mistym>That's... pretty short notice.
22:58:00<mistym>I don't see many devs moving over to GREE if this is the kind of developer service they can expect.
23:10:00<RedType>"December 14, 2012" so many old games are going to die
23:14:00<mistym>Will games really not function at all without openfeint?
23:15:00<Ymgve>I would assume the games would still function, if not you'd not be able to use them at all on a non-internet iphone
23:17:00<RedType>well they're not going to have full functionality
23:18:00<RedType>die is a bit strong
23:19:00<Ymgve>I assume most of it is "compare scores with friends" stuff, so not the greatest loss
23:20:00<Ymgve>and any game that has a significant online component will probably get updated by the devs
