But, I somehow still have 50+ junk emails in my box everyday. The damned AOL software dosen't let you report spam with more than one email selected. So, to report that spam, I'd have to go through 50 cycles of clicking the spam, clocking the report spam button, and then following the dialog that follows. How's that for convience?
Other than it's weight, and it was HOT and made you sweat? For moves you couldn't pull off w/ hand or finger moves there was a conviently located set of buttons and control pad on the wrist of the game playing hand.
Uhm..Semi-auto machine gun. I think one of the mandatory requirements for a machine gun is FULLY AUTOMATIC fire. I've seen semi-auto capable assult rifles (they also shoot full auto) and semi-auto selectable SMGs..but never a Semi-auto MACHINE GUN (except for the Browning BAR of WWII fame...) then again, I'm no expert.
And, are these guys on the other end of the link going to modify YOUR Pre Jan 1 2000 magazine to play MP3s? The magazines they sell will still be illegal under CA law. Although you'd be hard pressed to find a cop that wouldn't laugh when presented with the opportunity to arrest someone for their High Capacity MP3 player/magazine
Seriosuly, this would not even be legal in the state of California without a special permit that's issued only to Law Enforcement and Hollywood studios. No Magazines over 10 rounds allowed here. Even if it no longer can hold more than 10 rounds, the fact that it did in the past sets the EVIL BIT in the eyes of California Law.
Don't laugh! I get the Richard Reid treatment due to my camera gear!
The average drone can barely understand what an 35mm camera is. They freak out when I have this accordian looking device in a small suitcase with what looks like a black tablecloth and a 8x10 inch box labeled film. They can't understand why I can't open the box in daylight. They think the only film out there is the kind in those little metal can. Okay...
In all seriousness, not a chance that this thing will get past an airport drone.

If this is so, how can a certain Digital SLR (CANON EOS) capture in as little as 1/1000th of a second? If a digital sensor can't capture an image in less than 1/30th of a second how the hell can you get nice blur free photos of moving objects (which often blur as shutter speeds as quick as 1/250th of a second)?

JVC Announces GR-HD1 - World's First Consumer High Defintion Camcorder by News Editor
In what will certainly be considered the biggest move in the consumer camcorder industry in the last five to seven years, JVC has announced the first ever consumer High Definition recording camcorder, the GR-HD1. Announced earlier today in Japan, the GR-HD1, is the world's first consumer camcorder to offer 750 line resolution progressive video at 30 frames per second, recording MPEG2 video to MiniDV tape. Although the camcorder doesn't reach all the capabilities of the High Definition TV standard - it will certainly be the highest resolution consumer video camcorder on the market. Having a camcorder that can record at a resolution of 750 lines in progressive video is the biggest achievement in video quality in this industry since the invention of MiniDV. In the past, camcorders have recorded at about 520 line resolution interlaced video, meaning that half the picture was recorded every other frame. Instead, with progressive video, the hole picture is recorded every frame.
The High Definition GR-HD1 uses a 1/3 in. (quite large, which is good) 1.18 million pixel progressive scan CCD to record the high resolution video to MiniDV tape. The GR-HD1 is able to squeeze the higher resolution video onto the tape by recording it in MPEG-2 format, not the standard DV format. What kind of loss in quality this creates in unknown - but it will certainly be thoroughly investigated. The camcorder has two other recording modes. SD mode - which records 525 line resolution progressive video and DV mode, which records in standard 525 line resolution interlaced MiniDV format.
The GR-HD1 also includes a ''newly developed'' optical image stabilizer built into the 10x optical zoom lens. The GR-HD1 includes both an ''up converter'' and a ''down converter'' function which enables the 525 line resolution progressive and interlaced video to be played on an HDTV and also allows the HD video to be played on a standard NTSC TV. The GR-HD1 includes a 3.5 in. LCD screen and a color viewfinder.
The camcorder includes a ''rotating grip'', which the press release said ''rotates by up to 90 degrees so camera operators can film at low angles without removing their hand from the grip.'' It also appears that the camcorder includes a focus ring, which may also be a zoom ring. The GR-HD1 can also record digital stills up 1280 x 960 pixel resolution to SD cards.
The camcorder specifications listed the effective pixel resolution of the GR-HD1 in video recording mode as 840K. The camcorder is 114.5 mm wide, 99 mm high and 271.5 mm long and the company reported that it weighs 1,490 grams during shooting operation. The camcorder includes a Firewire port, a USB port, a D terminal (we don't know what this is), a headphone out and a microphone in port and a S-Video and RCA Video in / out port.
Because current video editing software is unable to handle the HD recording format, JVC is bundling their own software with the camcorder. Quoting the press release, the MPEG Edit Studio® Pro 1.0 LE software is ''...for easy, high-speed, frame-level editing of PEG files and an "HD Capture Utility" for capturing digital high-definition images and overwriting them back to tapes. GR-HD1 users do not just take videos, they create them!'' The software consists of four main parts, a capture program, an editing interface, an audio converter and a DVD creator. When or if compatibility for existing video editing programs will be announced is unknown.
One of the confusing parts of High Definition video (HD) or HDTV is that there are multiple resolutions - some are interlaced some are progressive. The company states that the video recorded on this camcorder will playback on an HDTV at 1280 x 720 pixel resolution at 30 frames per second,
The whole Xelee series could be fun. I'd love to see RAFT from Baxter.
Greg Bear's Blood Music would be quite timely with the whole bio-tech industry being in the limelight for last decade. The F/X on that movie wouldn't be all to expensive either.
This would be great for cutting out the internal structures for model aircraft. Do you know how many spars and struts are in a 1:24th scale model of an F-14?
I'm finding that the lack of a universal DVD standard has left me looking at HDDs as my removeable media of choice as well. CDRs are nice and cheap, but I have files that would span multilpe CDRs. It's a little bit of a hastle to have to WINRAR up my data into small chunks, only to have to UNRAR it back into oen big chunk. DVDs aren't readable everywhere. I'd love to see faster solid state storage available at a price competitive with today's HDDs, but alas, it's just no there. I already have a great deal of respect from my 7200RPM HDDs
If ANY image is newsworthy (depends on the judge) or has editorial value (again, take it up with the judge) it can be published without the permission of any person who's person or property is shown in said photograph. If any recogonizable person (or sometimes person's property) is in a photo, a model release is required for publishing outside the realm of news. That covers publishing a photo. Taking a photo is allowed anywhere you haven't been given notice that photography is not allowed. Often this notice is in the small print, or in large print posted in a very inconvient location.
The mouse on an old gateway of mine was developing problems. It would seemingly randomly move about the screen click and dragging like mad. I swore up and down there was a virus or a trojan on the machine. When I took the CPU/CASE to my bro's house to "borrow" his virus scan software it worked fine with his mouse.
only 3% have stopped buying CDs because prices are too high...
So, what? The other 97% also think prices are too high, but continue to buy CDs?
The other 97% buy fewer CDs due to high prices. When CDs were the new thing and cost $15-20 each I was buying 10-20 a year. Now that the prices have fallen as the technology matures...no...wait...the price never fell! Oh, that's right, my CD buying has fallen, not the prices. I now buy less than 5 CDs a year. I owe this to a maturing taste in music. I used to think Johnny Gill, Bell Bill Devo(divo?), and Mc Hammer were great artists...really I was just buying what my friends were buying, stupid teenager. Now I buy CDs AFTER I have heard the contets of the CD (Thankyou Listening Bars and Alt.Binaries.MP3.) Yeah, you heard me right, I download MP3s, and I buy CDs still. Sure I buy fewer CDs, but somewhere I had heard that music becomes less important to us as we age...maybe it's true, or more likely we learn to tell the diffrence between noise music. The CDs I no longer buy are the ones filled with noise. I would personaly answer "NO" if asked if I stoped buying CDs due to price. I would say "YES" if asked if price has caused me to buy fewer CDs (hell, if they were free I might "buy" more, just because I can sample/taste new music without having to be tethered to the computer like I am with downloading MP3s.) Based on my personal experience with music, I wounder how many just buy FEWER due to price, and how many never bought CDs before anyway, and how many buy fewer due to maturing taste. I'm SURE the RIAA never bothered to ask anyone about those options.
I also am a fan of spoken word and audio drama. I wonder if anyone here is aware of AUDIO BOOKS? If you want them free, and have no moral problems with piracy, you can have your fill at ALT.BINARIES.MP3.AUDIOBOOKS, A.B.M.SPOKENWORD, and a few other places on the usenet.
An AeroMexico jet crashed in my back yard. Well, not my backyard, but about 1/4 a mile from my home. It WAS a somewhat famous accident given that is was the first recent mid-air collision to get much press attention.
