a mate of mine has one of these installed in his car. Its genuinely impressive, all the usual stuff (location bookmarks, voice nav, street labels etc...) plus a nice looking faux-3d map thing
Great thing is, you can load it up with a list of fixed speed-cameras (we live in the UK, these things are a pain!), it'll warn you when you get withing 400 meters of one
Funny thing happened though, we drove into a carpark with it, must have lost GPS lock or something as the map started spinning around wildly in a confused way....
might i suggest RECYCLING the junk? think about it, if there were some easy way to extract raw materials from these (refining the junk down to super concentrated crap), surely it'd save bringing more stuff up later?
You can do your part to reduce the load by adding doubleclicks ad-servers to your/etc/hosts file as 127.0.0.1 (this can be done in windows too). you'd think someone would have put this in a windows/outlook virus by now...
the only mod i've ever done was to bolt some skateboard trucks to an old c64 that died. Worked a treat until someone jumped onto it and snapped the bugger in half...
what about adapting something similar to bluetooths frequency hopping system. Bluetooth frequently switches channels (something like 60 times a sec IIRC).
What if the sender and receiver on a wired network switched ports like this? Both have a passkey that generates a psuedorandom stream, which can be used to decided which ports to use.
This thing is retailing at about 900 at the moment.
I've been messing with Vj stuff for a few months now, its all quite cool.
I picked up a mixman dm2 controller for about 40, grabbed a copy of dm2midi so it generates MIDI commands. Link this in with Resolume and you can scratch/mix/mess up video for waaay cheaper than the pioneer box.
On the other hand, it ties up my laptop and cant scratch DVD's. But hey, its less than half the price.

.... they're still practicing :P
you'd be amazed how many microsoft IT's can read

My car gets 40 rods to the hogs head, and thats the ways i likes it!

Still cool though.
> leaving you CO2(which you could either vent to space or electrolyze back into CO and O2)
Or use as a cheap method of propulsion...

(if al-quaeda ever do this, it wasnt my idea, ok?)
you mean your logs will look like..:
10:01pm: Port 34 "HEY"
10:02pm: Port 44 "ITS ME"
10:03pm: Port 67 "DAVE"
10:04pm: Port 22 "OPEN UP"

and then a few days later MyDoom.S hits again..
real *nix users dont need man pages!
..what if they could combine superconducting motors and hydrogen fuel cells to make some kind of superefficient tank thingy?
Use the liquid H to cool the motors AND generate the electricity needed to run them...
these bots cant be that intelligent..
I reckon they'll check email and respond to spam by finding the actualy genes for enlarging a penis
