Sounds more like the other way around. You, watching a high-speed racing game (or TV show), "thinking" about the movement, and then... miserably crashing your head against the 46" LCD in front of you...
Now, I can't wait for the YouTube videos documenting such behavior!
And it seems like there are tons of web sites doing the same. The last one I found on Friday, after hearing the news about Michael Jackson was Youtube.
I was talking with a friend in South America about that, and decided to send him a link to Michael Jackson's Billy Jean. Turned out that while I was able to watch the video, he had an error message saying the video was not available anymore due to copyright issues.
I love it too! Another advantage is that if you carry more than US$1000 in any pocket, it's always convenient to find it! No "where's my wallet?" "where's the card?". If you put the cash in a front pocket some ladies will find it even more appealing!;)
In other news, some Apple followers had make donations already to at least get Obama a new pair of MyPhonies, so it looked like he's "wearing" an iPod.
Well, if was fun to ssh into coworkers SGI's (indy's for example) and play out loud any of the lovely sounds included in the system, like the cannon or the lion roaring, and see people jumping from their chairs.
I'm sorry, I was about to make a joke about linking violence to communism, but I knew that would never come up right (at the risk of get modded as troll).
Seriously, why instead of blaming video games they go to all the root of the problem. I could say that Christmas is linked to an increase of suicide rates. But who blames Christmas? No, the root of that problem is that northern countries have winter at that time, days get shorter and people have depression.
In the same way, parents use videogames to distract their children instead of raising them appropriately. How's going to blame Barney or the Teletubbies or Mario Bros.? No, they go ahead and blame GTA and other violent games. Some parents have lost their horizon, leaving to school, videogames, tv and internet the responsibility that should be theirs. Therefore, those are the first to blame when they realized their kids are all messed up.
Don't you find interesting that there's always someone to blame? The school didn't teach them, the video games are violent, the internet has so much information available, the TV shows are crazy these days. Why not blaming the parents? I think there's a really strong correlation there.
That's what kept me far from the linux based netbooks. The hard drive capacities are larger. Besides, I don't know if I want to install linux later, but I might need windows, and I know linux is free. So why shouldn't I get more HDD and a license if the prices are fairly similar?
Moreover, I stopped by Circuit City for example and watched that the linux version of the Aspired one makes it look like a toy. You can play there in front of a $300 laptop, and does a representative comes at you to ask you anything? No. You must go specifically looking for it. A regular buyer won't buy Linux just because. Particularly, when marketing dictates what they should buy: "Uhm.. everyone is buying Macs, perhaps they `just work`". To that, add the fact that people that is window shopping, sees a tiny little laptop and the will think that's not appropriate for them.
People need to realize their processing needs as much as power requirements when buying cars. Sorry for the analogy, but people would by a Mac because of the processing requirements, as much as they could by a ford mustang for it's engine power, even when they don't need either.
I had the chance, about two years or so ago, of holding a color e-ink picture frame. I have to say it was great. After that then, it came the sony e-reader, amazon's kinddle, but I haven't seen yet a final product of such device.
I've been wondering what ever happened to such technology.
"How many land speed record attempts do you know that were done by vehicles intended for commercial production and sale"
Precisely what I was saying pointless. How many NASCAR cars you can buy and drive on the streets?
I agree more on the F1 perspective, aerodynamics, handling, efficiency, safety, etc. Do you think land speed records provide mor "fun" than a circuit race?
I believe the old CART (now mixed with IRL) and F1 have more to take from.
Yes, you won't see an F1 in commercial production, but yet many of the technologies they have used are now available, such as semi-automatic sequential 7 gear transmissions, efficient gas engines, ultra light/safe materials. Now, what is it that this will provide to make the "engineering" world better and funnier except someone irresponsible driving at higher speeds?
Well, if you don't need to brake the momentum (I assume they have had a good aerodynamics work) will give you a fairly good mpg. (After all companies have their tricks to measure it)
But, yeah, I agree it's pointless, specially when in the US, the average highest speed limit is 70mph.
I believe that first and most important, the oscilloscopes have a main goal of presenting signals on a screen.
So what else would one need? I think that if your lab is looking for a change, what you have to know first is the budget. If you don't make an estimate of what it could be, and compare what you can get from the different brands. Tek and Agilent are not that different so if you get something more just get it.
I've played with really old scopes that worth nothing today and some that are around $40.000, and the only think that changes is the degree of complexity when using them.
Key list:
Budget
Bandwith
Grounded or floating probes (I belive is important)
Some media to download the plots for presentations, etc. (some had floppy disks not too long, I know some of them come with WiFi already)
Do you need a scope? or a spectrum analyzer with scope will help you better (then again, check on the budget).
I downloaded and installed it since the first day also, but I moved back because of the bar among other reasons.
Turned out that many pages I was looking for, I was using parts of the url, not in the domain name. Therefore, Chrome never found them. It was pretty quick to me to type them in Firefox.
Besides, Ad-block plus as many complained. Also the fact that I have to have an open tab to download stuff, even though I'm not using it. Closed the tab? B-bye download.
Moreover, it turned out to be a resource hog sometimes. Now it opens a process for each thread and consumes much more than firefox with the same amount of tabs open. That, and the "google updater" runing all the time bothers me.
MiniMo runs on my WM5 HTC8125 with no crashes. However, the device is so old, that the memory and processor makes the browsing experience slow and painful sometimes. I removed it because as Skype, the requirements are a bit higher than the 8125 is capable of. I would be able to try them again in a better device.
"one" (and that's why I should learn how to use the "preview" button!)
No, seriously, besides of the "...", you missed the "notify the media". They will help you to make it sound much better than it actually is;)
In fact, the greek root for "feet" is "podos", and podophile could perfectly be just feet lover (kinky anyway). That's why Podiatry is the study of your feet disorders, and an Arthropod means animals with jointed feet/legs.
Completely right. Voice consumes much more bandwidth inefficiently than text messages. Call! I hate that people that sends messages saying nothing and cost me money. If calls are free, make the freaking call!
I don't understand why text messages are more expensive. I'm pretty sure a simple tweak can make that one of the Time Slots be used for messaging without such big penalty.

Maybe that's his domain. Although, I would have think of getting xxx.org, as it may generate more revenue eventually. ;)

My summary is: I don't have a clue because the memory configuration is ambiguous and incomplete for the i7.
So that's why we're all getting now 10 modding points. The "Dementia feedback program".

It appears though that Plasma work better during daylight. So It all comes to if they are traveling at night.

Oops! Yes, I found it... it's BOS
You tell me! I didn't see any TradeMark on the whole website
So... watch out! If news can travel in time, probably the transformer can too. I hope doesn't fall on somebody's head.
