Looking at the patents for this reminds me of something i saw once, that is that the field put out by one magnet in series drives another, in a circular chain this 'could' produce enough rotation to keep the housing spinning like a fairground carousel with the horses as magnet and no central engine.
This was mentioned a long time ago as being a component of 'anti-gravity' device.
Shape of magnet seems to be important which surprises me, in most of the considerations for such a device the magnet is 'birds head' moulded like yin and yang shape. If these magnet spin opposing each other then there *is* a force that is 'free', doing much with the energy would require huge transference technology (magnet and housing) as currently exist though surely?
That looks interesting, reminds me of the flare or whatever it was in the 'Hunter' game, where you sent something up into the air, and got a 3d walkthrough.
Pilot seem to make great pens, I got a couple of G2's (black and blue, and I've seen a red one), it has a good grip and also has a soft pad for the writers index finger.
I write in caps for some braindead reason when taking notes and it is very clean and precise.
But, don't take them apart. Once you have unscrewed them they don't seem to go back together again easily, thanks Slashdot.
I think if hhg2g makes it the big screen it might encourage people to have an imagination of their own again.
Sadly its maybe too late, but i would have recommended richard briers take the lead.
I would say eric idle could be cool too, maybe even monty python team get involved, john clees is a genius and would be great.
My first experience with Doom was when I saw one of the guys playing it on a PC at our Amiga user group.
It wasn't until I happened to get a PC shortly after , and I played Doom at night, in the dark, on my own.
Then of course Quake came along, that was an interesting moment in the dark when the first shambler I saw gated in.
For me, Quake had the better atmosphere and should have been regarded as Doom 3, was it ever intended so?
I think it might be re-usable, I took a look at what the guys in my village were doing when they recovered a road nearby, and asked, as the road had a very crimsony look to it (which faded to light grey). They said that it is some kind of mixer added to recycled materials (the old road i guess).
To me as a layman, it looked a lot like the 'soft' they put on top of kids playground's in school (like a bouncy layer of rubberised tarmac), a covering over an existing base, it is much quieter to both drive over and live nearby to.
Where I live (UK) we would be better of by having bypass or seperate routes for trucks and trailers taking them out of populated routes, their weight is unfriendly.
Here, most (if not all) people have the double glazing, so hardly any noise at all is heard from road outdoors.
Some pubs in the UK use a system called 'autovac' (tetleys I think?), this system for bitter delivery is not very hygienic IMHO.
If someone is using a glass and has it filled from the autovac, the nozzle of the pump goes into the dirty glass, possibly getting contaminated with germs.
To top that off, any overspill is 'sucked' back into the supply and ready again for delivery to next customer.
I live out in the sticks, and lots of drinkers like to keep the same glass, some even getting annoyed if the bar staff replaces glass.
So, thats why I don't drink from autovac, its minging.
But I think EVERY site that is supporting the defeat of this kind of thing, should make a 'superstitial' themselves, one that only shows up in IE, and advocates mozilla or similiar in it, and the reason why?
The internet is not television no matter what the broadband suppliers are starting to say and twist it into.
It's my number one job for tommorow morning, once I close all these fucking modeless windows to make my own to educate IE and AOL users.
I used to be involved with a manufacturer, and we used something called an Octet machine for mastering IDE drives for desktops and laptop computers.
IIRC, there was a feature to test the disks as they were being mastered, but we never ran the machine in this mode due to the time it took to do it.
You could do 8 disks at a time, hence the name, I did a Google, but couldn't find you a manufacturer.
It looks like a elongated cash register, with an area covered with padding to site the drives, it can be connected to a PC where other programs can control it, rather than the limited software built into the machine.
Around 1995, this machine cost about 800 pounds (sterling).
Well, on the face of this it looks good, but what tends to happen in this kind of thing is that people who are making the programs you guys are following are unattached to the process.
A framework is made, by generals e.t.c, the program is made by contractors, the program can't be changed by the generals (nor do they care) once it's made and burnt to CD IMHO, I have had some experience myself with 'interactive learning' of this manner.
I know that it is impossible almost to teach soldiers about war, (especially when they have never been in one), but maybe games of Warhammer or Dungeons and Dragons might be more appealing.
In the end, the state of war these days IS a video game, that is why we have so many upset regimes and terrorists in the world, the allies have all the 'extra lives' and 'cheats'.
Comparing war to a game sucks, but thats why we have chess.
I first saw Bad Taste years and years ago, when it was a budget VHS rental, what a blast that movie is.
It's a spoof zombie / alien horror, follows the exploits of a team of government agents sent into a small town which has been invaded by the aliens (creatures who outwardly assume human appearance, but are really arse faced, vomit eating hunchbacks).
The film ends with barry, the scientific member of the team, battling through to the alien boss with a chainsaw, but is too late to prevent those left alive from getting away, in their mansion - spaceship.
The other underappreciated movie i think, has got to be the 'Better Tommorow' series, by Jon Woo and starring Chow Yun Fat.
This series shows the adventures of two sets of brothers, Ho and Kit, and Mark and Ken, the action scenes and photography are extremely well done, and the relationships are well crafted, especially with Ho and Kit, Ho is a gangster whilst Kit is an aspiring police inspector, leading to lots of friction.
If you like action films, and you haven't seen ABT series, then you are missing out IMO, any of my friends who ask for a video, I give them one of those and have trouble getting them back:p

Minus all the 'nice' bits he probably will never need (or you don't want to have to explain how they work).

I am interested how a client receiving a 1x1 gif can tell you more about the clients environment than the logs? Unless the gif isn't a gif really?

Game saves is an interesting problem, I wonder how suitable those old password or symbolic systems are for storing progress in a complex game.
Theres always USB keychain drive or something publishers could include / recommend.
You had to buy a memory card (iirc) to save games on Playstations and some Nintendo, so its not so outlandish perhaps.

I'll have to let Megatron know that the decepticons plans have been thwarted again!
I hope someone has mentioned Spaceballs and Jesus on e's?
I think it is good, maybe it could say 'this doesn't mean what you think it means', spell out 'forty two' or a 'first shirt' as well.
Such a simple idea that only certain people will see.
I have picked up some good tips!
One of the things I do is to keep details of post error codes from different manufacturers.
Most are standarised though, e.g constant tone for RAM, two tones for graphics adaptor.
Have a look at this for seeing network assets.
Someone tells me Adaware is no longer worth using, so I switched to 'Spybot Search and Destroy', it appears to work and is updated regularly.
Does it have wireless earphones? If it doesn't then its pretty much screwed my chance of getting one. Lots of cables and shit otherwise.
Sure someone would, who could forget Lexx ?
I guess I could.
In my opinion this was more like B7 than 'Farscape'.

I wanted some of those little sachets of silica, I ended up going to the local shoe shop and asking.
Seems they have quite a lot of them, probably from the shoeboxes that contained the footwear on display.

It is a movie of Vampire: The masquerade.
Either its with their blessing or not, its still looking like it will be shit.
Doh, i think it was my eyes x.x
You have to Register to read 'the rest' of long messages in that thread linked?
