Nova - manhunt Boston bombers

Post by bitWISE »

I have nova setup on my dvr and this recent episode was really interesting. It not only follows in detail the events and manhunt of the Boston bombers with lots of new video clips, but it also breaks down the latest technology used in the investigation. Stuff like facial recognition and searchable real time video surveillance.

Yeah, I caught this a few nights ago. The face recognition technology has come a long way. But it looks like the FBI needs to start tapping into the skills of the various schools and technology institutes...

Maybe time to move from Firefox to Chrome, then.
Although, if that's the only benefit, like all people I'm a conservative cunt, so fuck it.

I could convert the dvr file and upload it if you really want me to but it's probably not THAT interesting.

Yeah, a real yawn fest. Who gives a shit about that?
Seriously, there's viewing restrictions for us euros, so if you could upload it somewhere else, it'd be greatly appreciated :up:

chrome shits on FF on every aspect other than the huge amount of plugins. I use no plugins so it's pure win win for me.

Switch over and SFTU noob.
