I wanna see a Beowulf of Arduino ATmega328 chips. They cost 4 bucks!
The high-performance Atmel 8-bit AVR RISC-based microcontroller combines 32 KB ISP flash memory with read-while-write capabilities, 1 KB EEPROM, 2 KB SRAM, 23 general purpose I/O lines, 32 general purpose working registers, three flexible timer/counters with compare modes, internal and external interrupts,serial programmable USART, a byte-oriented 2-wire serial interface, SPI serial port, 6-channel 10-bit A/D converter (8-channels in TQFP and QFN/MLF packages), programmable watchdog timer with internal oscillator, and five software selectable power saving modes. The device operates between 1.8-5.5 volts. By executing powerful instructions in a single clock cycle, the device achieves throughputs approaching 1 MIPS per MHz, balancing power consumption and processing speed.
Not running oracle it can't! {I never worked with it. They seemed to much like a drug dealer when they came around, they had a building here in SE-VA in Chesapeake}
You only live once but well I hear if you goto hell you program in Fortran all day everyday, forever... They phased out the COBOL because it was much too evil.
They only bet a dollar.... black humor. None of them really knew for sure. If such a device had went off in the distant past it probably would have burned the whole earth.... o2 was much higher at one point... If I remembering my epoch old info... But I'm not sure that was the problem. You would need to google it but they did place a bet and Oppenheimer did say right afterwards "I have become death, distorter of worlds." and not in a cute way. It really freaked him out because he knew he had helped end the world. He was sure what he and his people made would kill all of us. I saw an interview with him and it was clear the man was scared although he hide it well but a few questions you can see it show. Wish I could point you to it but this was years ago and on pbs or something so I donno... I'm talking 1994 here...
"It’s possible that we don’t understand something.."
How refreshing. A scientist that admits they don't know everything--and quoted on/. I wonder how often scientists neglect to tell us that something isn't known or understood or observable? How often scientists pontificate when they should be quiet. The difference between Science the religion and science the field of study that that the quote reveals is refreshing.
Well now when the first atom bomb was exploded the scientist did take bets on whether or not it would ignite the atmosphere and burn the whole earth. Don't recall but I think the odds where 70/30 against with a very generous payout if it did! I think they, much like computer programmers never admit they are wrong for fear of the bean counters. It must be hard to find a job as a scientist in a nation that wants to go back to teaching creationism!
No an EMP burst 150ish miles up is the worst... Worst yet is if you have the chance to collapse a part of the earths magnetic field inward thus amplifying you 50MT device by at least one order of magnitude.
No more computers, cars, electronics, or power grid over a huge area. Doing this is extremely stupid... But it was an idea that went around for a long time.
It's real easy to have both happen. Remember these planes had no computer controls. Pilot error or a faulty joint or control linkage and it's over. Tail spins normal rip a plane to pieces....
It's my understanding that most H bombs are dial a yield. Could the Hydrogen isotope Gas not vent to reduce destructive power of a blast or was this type of design created later? Also It was my understanding the bombs had manual items that where inserted mid-fight. At least the first two plain old nuks...
If I recall where there not Japanese diplomats in Washington during the pearl harbor attack talking about preventing the US entering the Pacific Theater?
You speak of common sense yet you fail to require the same from the TSA. Do you not see the illogic in that? Have they really gotten to you so completely that you see them as your masters? They make the rules, they must be right?
Making a statement? YES! that is the point... freedom.... A t-shirt saying "I'm the bomb" or a gun neck-less requires no mention from the tsa. If it is a box cutter that's one thing but that is not what we are talking about now is it?
I'm sure they are tested but if I had their job I wouldn't "follow orders" people are free to be assholes you know???? It's not for you or anyone else to judge (control). If they are being disruptive and whatnot well that's something different. Simply wearing something isn't grounds to take it and I wouldn't give it to them. I'd rather go to jail but then I really have no life left to fear being stripped from me...
Let them train you to be a good little minion.... I'm sure they will reward you for it after they have taken everything from us and we are all guilty by default.
yes travel by air is totally a great reason to give up your basic freedoms as a citizen to own a legal necklace or any other legal item.... Your trolling is laughable...
Wow now that I think about it, I probably know a few things that have never become public. ie major shit myself. Pretty sure they didn't follow the law back in the 90's any better than now. I guess I'll keep it to myself unless they wanna come fuck with me for being some evil hacker or "child pedophilia" ie a problem. I honestly didn't release I even had any leverage until now. Probably not much but with so much family with secrets it makes more since why I've not got in trouble for a few things I know they know about.... Man people really need to wake up and soon. Shit has been bad for a long time now that I think back. I was really a smart kid and knew shit even when my parents never said anything. They always took their oaths really serous but when friends die and you yourself might be sick it's hard. You really can't say anything but by not saying why your fucking shaking and crying it's obvious now what must have happened given what their jobs where...
I'd help fight for our rights but there's no point in 0.00001% fighting for the rights of 350 million. We have the government we deserve.... And yes I'm posting this for them to see... Hi guys! You guy's know I've noticed you checking in right? Don't worry I'll be a good boy I promise;-) At least until I'm sure your totally fucked but then you guys are thinking the same... your masters get rid of you just like they do us... It's a sick fucking world but not my problem if no one else wants to help. I'm not "an hero" you know...
Now that you mention it I think they strayed us down in DET or something before getting off the bus.... West Nile and that Horse encephalitis was big at the time... I mean it has come and gone over the years... I don't really recall much of anything cool tho but they where going to yet us in the wind chamber but something weird was going on they must have had something in there that day because I remember the teachers talking to them and saying but you guys said it would be fine and we did it last year... So who knows.... I was pretty young.. This was probably in 89 or 90. What all is out there now? I mean open to people?
I remember seeing the stealth fighter when it first was declassified too. They had armed grads which was weird to see m16's up close. I went to a lot of military type stuff when I was young because both my parents worked as contractors with top secret clearance... I remember the FBI coming out when I was real young and they didn't hide that they where going to go have a chat with everyone around your home we watched them they even asked me a few things but I can't recall what. Guess they figured if there was something it would be easier to get it out before going around and asking others. I dunno if that is how they always do it. But my dad got cleared. My mom didn't try for awhile, held out and didn't want top for many years but got it when the pay was worth the scare tactic crap I guess. I never went into the service because of seeing all this bullshit...
I almost shoved a hot dog down Dick Chane's throat when he was sec of war. It was at the George Washington coming alive thing and it was hot as hell that day and I was trying to get across the hanger deck and bumped his arm pretty hard. I was clumsy at that age. Grew real fast. He didn't get pissed but I mean I was like a teenager so probably would have made him look bad. We had VIP access so for all he knew I was someone's important kid but really was not. The secret service really fucked up. They didn't even get to him and I was walking fast toward him but to get by him and over to my mom and bumped his arm pretty hard but he said it's ok guys and they where still 5 feet or so away. I didn't know who he was until my mom told me but I knew enough to apologize. I'm pretty sure someone got fired over that. I could have stuck him with something like old kgb poison pen or something...
Maybe I should do a FOIA request and see what comes up...
I'm sure you think you would be willing to be the hero. But do you really want to be prosecuted for a federal offense in a secret court?
To steal some IP from the trolls. I think you will have to be "an hero" at this point to fight them but the same could be siad at the start of the US when it faced the superpower of that time.
O yea max 20 degree's above horizon. I'm right on the Pegan river. I dunno I'll have to do some Google map checking and figure out a good place. I think if I drive north a little I could probably get a really good look. I'll need to check some gps info and what not but there really isn't much out here on this side of the James and except for the shipyard in Newport News not much of anything tall on the other... So that's cool. I'll have to find some place not too far. I'd drive out there but it would be more fun to figure out where to point my telescope and camera and stuff, etc... donno.. It's cool we got this here now...
I am building a full weather station right now and plain to have it do time laps pictures all year every 15 minutes with IR LEDS so I can watch the seasons change along with the avg temps and what not. I figured the cam would go into auto more and lock via a switch and then return to aprox last position if I was looking around with it. Got to put it up high to get good wind speed reading but it's gonna measure everything. Even going to have a rain gauge with heater element and laser to detect snow and all.. Self powered via solar and lithium bat's with backup drained mode just in-case but I figure I can build it low power enough to turn it on every 15 minutes and check out stuff sometimes. Maybe build in a wifi repeater with visitor access... i donno, might go with that low power I forget like 150mhz Chanel or whatever... still building the design. I'm just getting into these 4 and 5 buck microprocessors and i2c chips and all but I want a good lumen meter so I can software correct the lighting if I want to see it get dark or stay bright. I think if I use foam insulation I can get 15 minute cam updates and 1 minute updates on basic data but depends on how much bat power I provide and if I add tracking to the panel and if I use a proper power supply with a dc-dc converter with enough filters. Going to need to find a oscilloscope and I found a good power design on-line that can drive it without a lot of waste when it's not running full power like moving motors or heating/cooling fan, etc.... write some good code to adapt if need be until I get it right.
Donno... gotta add power all up and do some cad and basic simulations too... I've not did anything with electronics since I was in high school but everything is really easy now with these lower cost processors and analog to digital converts and all these good plans online for power supples. Saw this one chip that take's like 5 to 35 volts and outputs a constant with only like 1.5 volt drop Might be able to sell a few if I make it right. sealed electronics with heatsinks and heating pad for rain gauge when laser doesn't pass or temp is low. Got to code it right so I can turn snow into water if need be to let it drain via a flow gauge and I don't want it to ice up so need lots of good thermal protection on the gauge part.
Taking a look now... O yea L-20seconds for sure... from here looking out over the james. No high rises really. I'm north of Newport News so really just trees... So maybe even L-15... I donno. Damn that sucks... Well the rig looks cool... I'll have to put the next launch on my calender... I have a decent telescope and gps so I could probably get a good look down the road here alittle...

At first glance, one would think "Oracle" is a company devoted to catering high end golf outings and boat racing.
They make software, right?
Only as a means of raising the money for high end golf outings and boat racing.
