A Visual Comparison of Sci-Fi Spaceships

No, this is not an intergalactic traffic jam, although those look just like what you see here, just with a lot of honking and space rage. This is a size comparison chart of every Sci-Fi ship ever. Ok, maybe not every spaceship, but it does cover just about every ship anybody cared about.

It was compiled by DeviantARTist Dirk Loechel. It must have taken him a long time, not to mention lots of research in a galaxy far far away. Let us know if you think he missed some. My eyes are just way too stunned looking at them all in one place.

Looking at this massive fleet, you can’t help but feel like Doctor Who that one time when every alien from anywhere showed up in the skies above to arrest him. That’s a frak-load of ships!

Visualized: Android’s device diversity cut up into 3,997 little pieces

Some call it diversity, some call it fragmentation. However you slice it, there's a lot of Android devices out there. OpenSignalMaps has tracked a staggering 3,997 unique phones, tablets and other Google-powered gadgets, and has put them into a chart weighted by popularity. Not surprisingly, it's powerhouses like Samsung's Galaxy S II and HTC's Desire line that dictate the platform, while that Concorde Tab you bought in Hungary sadly doesn't have much traction. The normally signal mapping-oriented crew is careful to warn that the actual variety might be less: there's 1,363 one-timers in the group, and some of those may be custom ROMs and the endless carrier-specific variants that OEMs are sometimes eager to make. There's even more to look at through the source, including Android 2.3's continuing dominance and the mind-boggling number of Android screen resolutions, so click ahead for an even fuller picture.
