I played around with it a while back and it was buggy as hell. I did a search for another multiplayer mod for GTA3 which I believe was the GGM Mod. It was stable, it had NPCs, and best of all you could gain stars, the cops would come, but they wouldn't shoot at you. Yup, you can go crazy and get 6 stars, and you'll be able to pick up as many M16s and Rhinos as you want.
It was fun, but armored bumper cars gets old after a while. Rockstar needs to get going on an official multiplayer mode with interesting things to do. Maybe a coop mode, or CTF (capture the Faggio:D), or races.
Also, what really pisses me off is that people look down on people who get their mods installed by a shop. I'm sorry, I don't have the time nor desire to do all the grease monkey work myself. I do have money I worked hard for, and a desire to have a nicer car. So whats wrong with that?
Sorry, but I consider working on the car myself at least half the fun of having a performance car. Sure, it's a pain sometimes, but the satisfaction of blowing somebody's doors off with a car you modified cannot be beat. Combined with the outragous prices of some of these tuning shops and it will save you a lot of cash you can use to go even faster. Basically, if you don't have the time to work on the car, save your cash and just buy a better one. Why bother getting a Civic and paying some clown to drop in a VTEC when you can just buy an Acura.
I had a video on my comp a while ago of a hatchback civic dusting a Viper.
I had a video a while ago of a bald guy sticking his head in a woman's vagina. Just because it's on the 'net, doesn't make it real.
I've seen some really trick low riders, even some cool truck mods with hydraulics, so I agree with the your low rider comment, but...
And while nothing is cool about a corolla with a gold package, revving a 4 banger after you've done some work on it can be a lot more fun than you think.
99.9% of ricers don't do their own mods, well, performance mods anyway, unless you count seat belt covers and stickers as performance mods. No, installing some quasi-performance cold air intake with duct tape and a gallon of permatex is not really a performance mod.
Especially when that 4 banger dusts the 5.0 mustang next to you at the light.
That may happen if the 4 banger happens to be in a Subaru WRX, but in anything else, not without $10K in parts, tuning, and strong tailwind.
The best _Real_Life_ MPG I've ever seen was a 79ish VW Rabbit diesel. On a trip from Vallejo CA to Spokane WA it averaged 50 MPG. The 69 Chevelle 396SS in the convoy averaged 9 MPG.
Which is more fun to drive? The Chevelle of course. Some people aren't satisfied with a "Transportation Appliance" and actually want to enjoy the trip.
Fire Marshall Bill pushes send, and the phone begins to glow. "Like any piece of sofffisticated equipment, care must be taken to ensure proper and long lasting operation!" says Bill, as the phone explodes leaving his face and hand blackened and covered in tiny peices of plastic, LCD glass, and a set of number buttons embedded in his left cheek.
The Team Arena add-on for Q3A is able to do 64 players smoothly, as well as the games based on the Q3TA engine, like RTCW. I regularly play on Happy Penguin Classic, which has a 64 player server. It's been a while since I've played Q2 online, but from what I remember even the 64 player servers hosted on high end machines behind fat pipes were still kinda laggy.
At the risk of drifting off topic, equal access should apply to the basic education required of all citizens as well. To have a true democracy, a society must provide in basic education the tools for any citizen to become a politician. Thus the argument that Gray Davis is uniquely qualified for the role of Governor would be moot. All citizens should be provided with an education that would allow them to hold a political office.
But since most "professional" politicians are lawyers and most laws are written in nonsensical lawyerese gibberish, it would require 16+ years of public education to meet this requirement. That would be too much of a burden on the public education system.
Rockstar buys out the Mario franchise and creates Grand Theft Mario Kart where you'll get to jack Luigi's ride, pay the princess to make your car go "squeeky squeeky", and sell Shrooms out of the Mr. Koompa van.
I found a schematic here. You'll have to make a PCB and gather a few simple components, then you'll be able to use any standard null modem cable. I just searched google for "playstation serial cable schematic" and it was like the 15th site listed.
The problem was with new radios, not new frequencies, as told here. The police had no problems with their radios, aside from some issues in the subways.
- If it interferes with Ham Radio, it also (potentially) interferes with radios used by people you may thank one day, such as firefighters, abulance drivers, police, etc...
Most emergency services are moving to the UHF frequencies AFAIK. In fact, most if not all in the NYC area are already, and I'm sure most other large urban areas have already switched. They're also using FM, which eliminates most interference.
Will the FCC care? Probably not. As long as everyone can get EyeWitless News and Clearchannel they're not concerned. Sure, it interferes with shortwave, but since VOA stopped broadcasting to North America, there's nothing on SW for Americans to listen to anyway (the FCC's hypothetical opinion, not mine).
There was also a joke in the BSD fortune program that made a reference to a "Lego Carpet Bomb", which when deployed, would scatter millions of pieces of tiny plastic bits that hurt like hell when you stepped on them.
I have a Panasonic 20" TV/VCR combo that decided to become a black and white 2 weeks after the warrantee expired. My Phillips/Magnavox 27" runs fine after 5+ years now, crappy remote and all. Besides, my TV is always set to composite input, and the volume is done through the home theater so I only need the power button, which is taken care of by the remote for my cable box, which conveniently has one big red button that turns all my devices on or off.
Since we've only been able to play with very small amounts of antimatter we've never been able to see it's affects with regard to gravity. Maybe there's a whole lot more antimatter in the universe than we thought, and since it's the "opposite" of normal matter, maybe it has a different affect on space time, like producing anti-gravity. Of course my quack theory doesn't explain how everything doesn't come in contact and blow up, but I just barely have a HS diploma, and weird shit like this gives me a headache.
Or, antimatter is really matter, and matter is really antimatter, and we're the antimatter living in a mostly matter universe. OMG, don't touch me!
It's probably not image processing, but more like processing sonar into images. I beleive the US sub fleet has had this type of system for a few years now. It can take any sonar info, passive (underwater microphones) or active (ping), and create some sort of image out of it and spit out an at least rough guestimate as to what it is (dolphin, ship, fishing boat, photon torpedo, etc). They may be even further along than that, I'm not sure.

How about this quote, describing how CO2 snow is not like water snow:
... how dense is that?
"It's almost like when snow melts and then gets very icy at the end of the winter. So the density is about that of water ice, but denser."
So um
"Your ass, your face, what's the difference?"
"Totaaaal Carnaaaage!"
Whenever I forget about that game, I always stumble into something that reminds me of it.

1. Get some deuterium (or heavy water and magnesium filings)
2. ???
3. Fusion!

Also, that ad for Dikawhatever comes to mind. Romero said he was gonna kick my ass, and I'm still waiting.

Run it as root, or give it the full path. Mine is /usr/sbin/lsof. While you're there, drop a link to it in /usr/bin for convenience.

But they will be able to penetrate a cloaking device by the displacement of the water.
I don't know why, but I just had this sudden urge to throw in a Star Trek reference.

Actual customers will be irate at jammed phone lines and slow email responses.
That's assuming they have actual customers, as opposed to just victims.
