The robot actually was able to rotate its wings as well as flap them. It learnt that rotating them one way on the downward stroke and the other in the upward stroke gave the most lift. Agreed not exactly an AI bird, but a step forward in AI that doesnt used preprogrammed states and instructions to base its learning on.
Surely no serious scientist actually considers Newtons theorys as actual 'Laws' ?
They're systems we use that seem to work in some cases. Every new groundbreaking discovery in physics overturns an old 'Law of physics'.
There was a time not long ago when superconductors were deemed impossible (at any temperature) yet we all now take them for granted.
As a new convert to DVD this is great news, i just hope they include the original soundtrack and subtitles. The dubbed versions really seem to lose something.
Its a great moview tho, altho it needs a few watches to grasp whats going on at times:)
The WOM is a 'Write Once Read Never' device.
In allows the limitless storage of data, with zero possiblity of reading it back. This allows for hardware acceleration of/dev/null.

3rd screen from the top is dm4 'the bad place' its one of the standard quake dm maps, personally i hate it :)
funny, cos Aard only just finished it. Fisheye has been out for a while tho, maybe thats what youve seen before ?
Tis great watching the CPL Quake3 turnaments live, but you do rely on a good camerman/spectator to give you the best views.
