content: A paper magazine for a target audience that pretty much grew up with free digital media? Seems like a solid business plan.

So they just don't get it.(Do not google tortoises at the moment. Instead, google SexyCyborg. You'll be glad you did. Your wife, not so much.)

content: You might assume that readers have to buy copies for a magazine to survive, but that isn't the case.Huge numbers are given away; this data will be listed annually in a small section of the publication.Lord knows I never paid forElectronics Design, but they kept sending it throughout my school days.

content: Quote from: helius on July 29, 2015, 05:44:21 amLet's put it another way: Advertisers who pay for printed media space, hoping to be seen by internet-age young people, have a very strange business model.

She usually instrumentalizes her body to get free labour from EEs and geeks.- She's a fake Japanese: She tries to copy latest Japanese trendy fashion such as those pussy lightning skirts.A real geek woman is sexier even with less boobs and fashion awareness. But don't put Ladyada on thr list, please.You are okay! Some posing lessons and photoshopping will make you sexier than Sexycyborg

Stop complaining or you'll get the 'relaxed' version.Quote from: EEVblog on July 29, 2015, 11:35:55 amYes, where are they all? Come on ladies, please walk me through the wrongs of objectifying the overweight old male body.QuoteCurrent minor net craze, google knows all. A young woman in Shenzen who is doing unlikely things to skirts and shoes, involving LEDs, lots of bare skin, and quite a bit of silicone. She's smart & cool, but doesn't seem to know about LiPo battery charge management. Some images moderately NSFW.

content: Quote from: TerraHertz on July 29, 2015, 11:54:39 amI was at a friends house on the weekend and a 6yo said I was huge and had a big gut!So of course I did the old suck in the gut vacuum trick and I think I broke something...Mind you, I can almost do an Arnold size vacuumI'm baffled where all the bits go. All I know is that it hurts...QuoteCurrent minor net craze, google knows all.

content: Quote from: TerraHertz on July 29, 2015, 11:54:39 amIt gives an unrealistic expectation of the male physique the average studmuffin such as myself just can't live up to. Given the heat wave* we're having I'd love it if I could go bring myself to take my t-shirt off but I can feel the judgemental eyes on me. "Eww, have you seen that, oh gods no look at that definition! Lol, he doesn't even realise what he looks like. And no love handles! Ewwwe!!1!!one"*By British standards anyway.

content: You are right on the way too much silicone thing. Must be more than 5kg of fill in there at least. Must admit he is good, minimal scarring and he achieved good balance, though the stretch marks are going to be horrid in 10 years from now.Makes Fat Annie ( don't look for images unless you are into big Bulgarian airbags) look svelte and well proportioned.

content: Quote from: TerraHertz on July 29, 2015, 11:54:39 amI think she's some kind of hobbyist without so much knowledge about electronics, but found electronics as a way to make fashion gadgets and being somewhat sexy makes her relevant in the electronics events. I think she pursues to be some kind of PR in the industry, maybe into the maker movement. It reminds me of some kind of female cosplayers.But maybe I'm wrong and being too opinionated about her, it happens to me everyday. She's young and just wants to get some attention.Quote from: EEVblog on July 29, 2015, 01:03:58 pmIndeed, she's into OSHW so she likes to show her own source code. She shows her thong and use minimalist clothes on her photos, maybe she uses some CC license and can't be considered fully Open Hardware.Nothing against personal tastes at clothing and sexy fashion, but I dislike it when it's the main characteristic of the person. That's why I find models and most actors too boring and annoying, they're are just pieces of flesh to me and some of them are professional disguisers that know how to say anything in a credible way by emotional manipulation. But I'm a lover of science and knowledge (despite my goals on it are becoming an extreme to achieve due to some personal traits), so maybe I'm biased and that kind of people is necessary in the society to be better.Look at the black man that is very probably the photographer, he seems to be very happy near her. That photo is cropped, look at the original one I attached for the lulz
