    switch...case could work

  2. Re:impossible? on Human Powered Helicopter · · Score: 2, Interesting

    hmm ... i must admit that i did not think about the wasted energy for the spinning cockpit. and it took a while to find this:

    4.1.2 [...] and at least one member of the crew shall be non-rotating.

    which makes the whole idea stupid, except maybe for a roller-coaster replacment :)

  3. Re:impossible? on Human Powered Helicopter · · Score: 1

    The challenge says that it just has to hover so is the little rotor really necessary? sure the thing will spin around like mad but it could save lots of extra work

  4. Re:Testing times on First Java AP Computer Science Exam Complete · · Score: 1

    We did get a reference book ... it was really useful because IMO the Java API is really bad... none of the functions make much sense eg. string.substring(0,5) will take the first 4 letters of the string ... it would make SO much more sense if it took the first 5 letters of the string. but i would not use Java for any real programs anyway so i suppose it doesnt matter... the C++ stuff is much better

  5. Re:My impression of the exam on First Java AP Computer Science Exam Complete · · Score: 1

    i dont know about others but i found the A level exam very easy ... i never really studied for it and i was finished 45 minutes early there are 2 parts to the exams 1) the multiple choice section. 2) the Free Response part. we got 1 Hr,15 Min for the multiple chice and 1Hr 45Min for the Free response. I finished both parts really early and some other people in my class were done not too long after me.

    isnt that exactly what a tablet PC is?

  7. Re:What's the point? on Intel Launches DRM-Enabled CPUs for Phones and Handhelds · · Score: 1

    i certainly use my P800 as a music player and also have a few trailers on it. this would just stop me from being able to re-encode the trailers so that tehy fit on the tiny screen ... stupid

  8. Re:Blooper? on Interview with Peter Jackson on LoTR Bloopers · · Score: 1

    what about in the beginning with smeagol and deagol. smeagol knocks deagol down and the rings flys out of his hand. then the camera moves to look at the ring in the grass and it is clean and dry but just before that deagol had been holding it with all the sand and dirt in his hand...

  9. Re:Trust them on Rules for Teenage Internet Access? · · Score: 0

    That sounds like the complete opposite of me. i am the teenager and i rule the network... my parents dont know how to configure the router so i always have to fix problems like our ISP dropping the connection.

  10. Re:I wouldn't buy the Athlon anyway on Is Prescott 64-bit? · · Score: 1

    the normal athlons were really hot but the new Opteron chips even when they are overclocked are still colder than anything by intel
