Isenokuvakala ngathi yifilim yenzululwazi kodwa kubonakala ngathi sijongene nesiganeko esiyinyani ngokupheleleyo kwaye oko kukuthi ngo-2005. Inkampani yaseCupertino yenze umsebenzi odibeneyo kunye norhulumente wase-United States, ukwenza i-iPod elungisiweyo enokusebenza njenge "counter Stealth Geiger counter." Kulabo abangaziyo kwaye baphephe ukukhangela kwi-intanethi ukuba yintoni le khawuntari, sikhuphela oko sikufumene kwiWikipedia: «I-counter ye-Geiger sisixhobo esilinganisa i-radioactivity yento okanye indawo.«.
Bambalwa ababesazi ngale "imfihlo" iPod eApple
Iqela elincinci labantu lalisazi ngale projekthi kwaye kubonakala ngathi uShayer wayeyinjineli yesibini yesoftware eqeshwe yifemu ukwenza le projekthi ngokwento abayithethayo. TidBits. Yonke into ibonisa ukuba yayiyinto eyimfihlo ngokwenene kwaye akukho mntu wayeyazi ngayo ngaphandle kukaShayer ngokwakhe, uPawulos noMateyu, iinjineli ezimbini ezijongene nokuvelisa le iPod. Ingxelo eyafika kuShayer ngqo kwintloko yesoftware ye-iPod yayi:
Ndinomsebenzi okhethekileyo kuwe. Umphathi wakho akazi nto malunga noku kwaye kuya kufuneka uncede iinjineli ezimbini ezivela kwiSebe lezaMandla eUnited States ukwakha i-iPod ekhethekileyo. Yazisa mna kuphela.
Ukususela ngelo xesha ukuya phambili, olu hambo lwaqala apho kuphela eli qela lincinane liza kuqhagamshelana nelinye iqela elincinane leenjineli ezivela eBechtel, ikontraka enkulu yezokhuselo eUnited States. Ukubheja kwakunamandla kwaye kukuba iSebe lezaMandla lijongene nezixhobo zenyukliya kunye neenkqubo zamandla enyukliya kweli lizwe kwaye ngo-2005 uhlahlo lwabiwo-mali lwaluyi-24.300 yeebhiliyoni zeedola. Kubonakala ngathi malunga ne-9 yeebhiliyoni zeerandi zolu hlahlo-lwabiwo mali iye ekufezekiseni iinjongo ezinxulumene nokhuselo, ezifana nokuthintela inyukliya kunye Le iPod yayiphakathi kwezo zicwangciso.
Emva kokuba iimeko zivunyelwene, eli qela lasebenza kulo msebenzi lisuka kwiofisi ekwikomkhulu le-Apple laza lasebenza ngokuthe ngqo kwisoftware. isizukulwana sesihlanu iPod nomthamo 60 GB ukuyiguqula kwaye oku kwasetyenziswa njengekhawuntara Geiger efihlakeleyo. Ngesi sixhobo, ukwenza iimvavanyo kunye nemilinganiselo ye-radioactivity naphi na kuya kuba lula ngokwenene kuba akukho mntu unokucinga ukuba i-iPod ngokwenene yayiyimitha yolu hlobo kwaye kwiSebe lezaMandla inokuba sisixhobo esinomdla kakhulu. E-Apple ngabantu abane kuphela ababandakanyekayo kwiprojekthi, bonke ngoku bangaphandle kwe-Apple kwaye akukho mkhondo wale iPod eyimfihlo.
