Subtitles are stored as bitmaps on a DVD. That is why they are usually rather blocky, depending on the font used when mastering the DVD. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DVD-Video#Subtitles

I had the trouble of going to bed but my mind was racing with ideas, and I could not fall asleep. I noticed that taking a notepad next to bed and writing down the ideas or seeds of ideas I could get them out of my mind and my mind could be at rest and I would fall asleep.
I think it releases the mind from trying to remember the ideas in the morning. When I write the ideas down I can review in the morning with the benefit of having a good nights sleep.

It's a converted chest type freezer. Freezers also have a lot thicker insulation on the walls that also helps improve the efficiency a lot.
It also takes a lot of floor space. On the other hand it could be usable as a secondary refridgerator to hold cold drinks, vegetables etc. that you don't want taking space in your main fridge.
And btw where is my aerogel-insulated fridge? I want one for my flying car!
There could be a little animation or delay before showing the final "hash". Only the colors for the complete password are important.
And if somebody can take video of the screen they could take video of the keyboard too, no?
