  1. Re:GSM phone ESN on Tracking Via Anonymous SIM Cards · · Score: 1

    Since it is possible to block a stolen GSM-phone (Not just the SIM card), it shoud be possible to track both the phone and the SIM card.

    Why not just use a smartcard?

  4. Another perspective on rescuing the princess... on Super Mario Bros Record Broken · · Score: 1

    5.17 seems a little bit quick, isn't somewhere around 6 minutes the average for men? ;)

  5. Re:Extreme gaming ;) on Super Mario Bros Record Broken · · Score: 1

    Actually, if you've played on double or tripple speed and restore it to original speed it feels like 1/10 of the speed..

    It's possible to do amazing stunts.. though i couldn't stand it more than a few minutes before i lost my patience (and i have LOTS of that...)).

  6. Extreme gaming ;) on Super Mario Bros Record Broken · · Score: 5, Interesting
    Why don't they just turn up the fps in the emulator? Saves a lot of time.. ;)

    I actually got that idea a few month ago and tried it out. ;)
    Results for SMB3:

    Double speed: (120fps, ntsc)
    World 1,2,3,-,7,8.. completion =) (World 7 is NOT fun..)

    Tripple speed:
    World 1,-,8.. completion =) (those blocks in bowsers castle that falls down when you stand on them for a while is damn hard to pass)

    10x: 600fps
    World 1,-,8..complete failure.. (i'm happy with finding the flutes)

    Notes:

    No emulator features like save and load were used.

    Controller with turbo were used for flying at 3x speed and above.. (almost impossible without)

    If you try this, DO NOT PLAY THE GAME AT NORMAL SPEED AFTERWARDS, (Windows feeling..)

    -K (idiot)

    Or look at the images of the patent, page 2.

    Are you stating that the Big Bang occured 1.026 seconds before you posted that message?

    If you are going to pick nits about a typo, at least do it properly. 1026 nanoseconds != 1.026 secs. Perhaps you were thinking of milliseconds?

  15. Re:Electron tunnelling visualization on Intel Researchers See Moore's Law Becoming Obsolete · · Score: 1

    The probability for the electron of being "in" the barrier is exactly zero (it's either on the inside or the outside). Also since the probability can be described as a wave it cannot exist at the nodes.
