  1. Re:mplayer on Sharp Ships Zaurus SL-5600; 5500 Available Cheap · · Score: 1

    Yes it does, i actually encoded an entire Stargate SG-1 episode using divx at 320x240, it fits nicely on a 128 mb mmcda card. I had to test different bitrates to find a good balance between the read speed of the mmcda card (about 150 kbit/s i think), the picture quality and the size of the clip, but once i found it the result was very cool indeed, an hour of smooth scifi action with stereo sound in your pocket :) The mplayer port has the same commandline options as it's big brother afaik..

  3. The storage problem and carbon nanotubes on Hydrogen-based Rotary Engine? · · Score: 1
    I could attempt to explain in detail, or simply post this google search..


    To keep it short, experiments with carbon nanotubes show promising improvements in storage safety and ease of handling liquid hydrogen, as well as substancial improvements in mileage when used as fuel. The trick is to actually fill the LH2 tank with graphites constisting of cnt's in various formats before adding the hydrogen.


    It's funny how these tubes that are made of C60 (or fullerene, or "buckyballs") are showing up as very useful in a wide range of sectors like medicine, microchips etc and now transportation..
