Yeah! Like why do they insist on typing on a screen where theres no where to bloody type! Let me demonstrate -Phasmatis wrote:I also love how they have all these specialist graphic programmes that do exactly what they want instead of some glasses wearing, long bearded, pony tailed guy shoved in a back room with MS Paint.
*image on monitor of someones face*
*clickity clickity clickity*
>>there by typing in some random letters rather violently on my keyboard ive invoked a routine to match that face to one in the database and ALL WITHOUT USING THE SEARCH FORM! I rulez.
Okay so we've been over Caruso's insufferably smugness and the often rather unplausible use of science. BUT! What's with the fucking forensics handling the questioning and arresting of suspects? Wouldn't it be cool if they would actually just PROOVE a murder once in a while and leave it to the courts to handle the rest instead of relying on suspects breaking down and delivering a full confession each and every episode!?

Also, it's an unwritten rule that ANY program that compares things, be it faces, fingerprints, numberplates, serial numbers, hell: even DNA sequences...
MUST do so by VISIBLY iterating through all the possible options, even though in most cases this would necessitate a truly horrifying amount of texture caching/memory.
Also, it must make a gentle 'blip' noise each time a new image loads up.

Tell me Sir - did Columbo have such jiggery pokery? I think not. Damn it the man couldnt even figure the workings of a fax machine but my God he knew how to outsmart the villian!
Same goes for Jessica Fletcher but lets not start that old chestnut of a conversation again lol.
Quincy was another one, sure he was preachy and didn't like the young'ns listening to rock music but it was a great show.

I've never understood that, what do the cops actually do? The CSI's seem to be forensic experts/detectives and jury most of the time. On CSI New York the cops are involved a little more but still it's usually the CSI's that do all the work.Jonas wrote:Okay so we've been over Caruso's insufferably smugness and the often rather unplausible use of science.

Yeah, every Bruckheimer TV crime-show is complete and total fiction with no basis in reality whatsoever.
I'll take my Columbo any day. That was seriously one of the greatest shows ever written. COLUMBO!!! WHY DID I HAVE TO SEE ALL OF YOUR EPISODES??? There's no more to see now... I have no reason to LIVE!

Hey I love CSI, I thought I made that clear.
But that doesn't make it any less silly, when you think about it. The trick to enjoying it is not thinking about it. I'm good at that

What, you mean a search would be faster without displaying the pictures? BUT THEN HOW WOULD THE MAGIC COMPUTER BOX LOOK AT THEM?DDL wrote:Also, it's an unwritten rule that ANY program that compares things, be it faces, fingerprints, numberplates, serial numbers, hell: even DNA sequences...
