  2. Blade Alternatives on Building A Homebrew Robotic Lawnmower? · · Score: 1

    What are the blade alternatives?
    Perhaps fishing line used in the same way a combine harvester works and, use a metal bar as the point of contact. As the mower goes over the grass, the grass would run up against the bar and any grass that's grown over the bar, would be chopped by the rotating fishing wires.
    This would also be a great safety feature as any fingers that enter the underneath of the Robotic mower would be safe as the fishing line would snap.

  3. Roll Your Own Digital Video Recorder ! on Sony's Linux DVR Can Record Two Weeks of TV · · Score: 1

    Come on troops you can Build this yourself. Cheap as Chips! VDR serves as a user interface for those who want to build their own digital satellite-TV receiver and recorder box running under Linux. http://linux.oreillynet.com/pub/a/linux/2002/08/29 /howardwen.html It is based mainly on the DVB-S digital satellite TV receiver card from Fujitsu Siemens, and upon drivers developed by the LinuxTV project. Essentially, VDR ties together this hardware and software with Linux so you can have your own TiVo-like box, but with the extras that TV network executives don't want you to have: on-screen removal of commercials and the ability to burn TV programming you've recorded to CD-Rs in the VCD format. http://linuxtv.org/

  5. Re:I'm in Canada... on Restrictive Sales Practices on the Web? · · Score: 1

    I'm in the UK and I had to fax a form with my credit card information to the US. This apart from normal port is the most insecure wat of getting information to the 3rd party. I had no choice. As a result I guess that 1000's of people have to do this, so now I just scan the phone lines for fax's to the US and scan for numeric digits over 10 Digits long.

  8. Tax, EU, .COM and Women on Restrictive Sales Practices on the Web? · · Score: 1

    Okay so there is no Women in this post!

    Its all to do with the tax and postal service. My wife's family live in Hungary (Szolnok). If I want to get things sent from .com (Mostly US sites) I have to get them shipped from the US to the UK Get hit by the TAX, then send it to Hungary, out of the EU then claim the Tax back from the UK then the UK back from the US. After that I have to perform the Tango jump up 3 times click my shoes and hope that 5 weeks after ordering the goods they get to Hungary in one piece.

  12. Re:Now more than WAP can be dead on Japanese I-Mode Phones Under Attack · · Score: 1

    Okay Right I have a plan, 1st I need to set up a premium rate phone number say £1.00 per min. Now I write my Virus to call this number. Japans population = 120,000,000 DoCoMo has a 60% market reach. So 60% of 120,000,000 = 72000000. Hey if this little puppy worm was to work I would make about £72000000. Which is nice!
