So, any thoughts about how the new GoPro housings will compare to the Backscatter housing?

Ads networks regularly run Javascript code on webpages that actually reference code/objects on the ad networks' servers (it's how they track user page views, clicks, etc.). And some of those servers don't perform for s***. When you read a post on SB, you aren't just loading pages from...

You want a technology company like GoPro to stop releasing new cameras as sensors get better? Your old camera (or smartphone or tablet or computer) doesn't suddenly stop working the day a new one is released...

+1! I was taught to check my SPG every five minutes and to be able to guess what the pressure should be against what the gauge actually says. I still do that to this day. :)

I do the same thing, though TBH it has more to do with not wanting to bother with the Uwatec IRDA than anything else. Agree. Posting dive profiles to FB has a decidedly "bucket list" feel to it. And I'm sure someone who autoposts that kind of info will eventually live to regret it when their...

Really? Facebook profile uploads from a smartphone? :facepalm:

I'm seeing AA fares that are $150 to $200 cheaper than Delta's fare. But the AA flights in both directions would be red-eyes, where the Delta flights (and United) are same-day. Also I wouldn't want to fly through MIA with anything valuable in checked luggage if I didn't have to. (Has there...

AA needs to get their house in order before I'd consider booking a flight with them to someplace like RTB. If you only needed a direct flight like the OP then maybe. (Emphasis on maybe.) But right now there are a lot of people missing connections and finding entire flights cancelled, who...

For those of us who periodically do 25+ dives per week, Nitrox can make a huge difference vs. diving air. You just have to know what your doing, and never allow yourself to get in such a hurry where you start to take shortcuts.

Realizing that I'm replying to a six-month old post... Anyone know why they stopped selling the Mk19 first stages? Is the conversion just a matter of fitting the turret, etc. from the Mk25 on a Mk17?

LOL! And that's why it will never change. ;)

What's cost effective about negative PR that drives away tourist dollars? On an island with barely 15,000 people (+/-), they would get to the bottom of this situation if it was a priority. All it would take is a few cameras in a few rental trucks, and maybe the intestinal fortitude to throw...

I had an answer ready to post, but then I read this: Welcome to my ignore list; population: you.

Sorry to read this. Best of luck, heal fast, and hope to see your and Ron"s excellent videos in the near future!

Pretty funny investigative piece on the Google/Motorola "iLost" ad. Google's "iLost" Motorola ad faked an address to "lose" iOS 6 Maps Long story short: It turns out that the address they claimed Apple Maps "couldn't find" was a fake. :rofl3:

Local maps and turn by turn/spoken directions are working great where I live. I understand other people may not be faring as well, but I've extensively tested this basically everywhere I've driven since last weekend and haven't had any problems. The word is that Google demanded the ability to...

Welcome to Scubaboard, potassium!

You didn't do a backup first (either to iTunes or an iCloud backup)? :confused: That's because most Fandroids can't upgrade their phones (because the carriers won't let them and Google is cool with that). Also, their reading comprehension is for s***: But, hey, Google has indexed every...

I'll be updating my iPad 3 later today. I have to put it down long enough to back it up first. LOL! Supposedly Safari fixed the issue where "liking" a forum post jumped you up to the top of the page Yeah, I know, first world problem. ;) I'm also looking forward to trying out the new Jasmine...

For a dry land wide angle Nikon DX mount I'd look at the Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8 (rectilinear, also close focusing) before the 10-17mm fisheye -- or anything else for that matter. But that's just me. That said, I don't know what port options you'd have for the Ike housing for that lens. It might...
