Epic Webcam Zoom
August 24, 2012 at 8:34 pm
So I've been doing some personal research into webcams that are accessible over the Internet without authentication, and I found a few which are controllable (i.e. you can make the camera pan, tilt, etc.)

This one seems to be in a South Korean hair salon, but the camera itself is fitted with a very powerful zooming mode.

Pretty epic. Now I just need to find a similar camera in an English speaking country, zoom in on some company docs, and phone them up.

South Korea? But that note is in Japanese.. Tongue
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

The IP suggested it was South Korea, so I'm probably wrong. Can you read what it says?

From my awful understanding of Japanese I got

カルテナシ = Karutenashi

Then it corrected me to カルテなし = No medical record

2nd line I got

カルテナよし = Yoshi Karutena which seems to be a name Big Grin

Most likely this is all completely incorrect but I tried Tongue

As for the next two lines I have no fucking idea. I might give it a go later Tongue

I can't read much Japanese... I can speak a wee bit, but that is as far as I have gotten so far.

I'm terrible. In fact I had the honor of being worst in my class of 4 Big Grin

By the end I could say a few phrases without knowing what they meant and got pretty beast at some origami which I have now forgotten.

Might mean カルテナ シ the シ meaning system like Karutena System then the number his System ID or something.

Unfortunately no. I just recognize the hiragana/katakana symbols, and since I don't know any Japanese it is gibberish to me. And I have no hope whatsoever to read the kanjis Tongue

@Insanity x: A name / system ID seems more likely than a medical note, since this is a hair salon.
