Surfing on a Surfboard

· Score: 2, Funny
you'll end up seeing what seem to be Intel engineers in wet suits
I think this project was most likely used as an excuse by a bunch of Intel Engineer surfers to get out of the office and go surfing while getting paid. Hey, who wouldn't like that job?
I think the reverse would be true of the porn games. The more realistic it is, the better.... I've stopped playing games a few years ago, so this is just a hypothetical opinion.
It's another to identify obstacles and determine their risk to vehicular progress
I think a device that would measure density of the object would probably be able to distinguish between a rock, a bush, and an oil spill. I'm sure such devices exist, question is, how fast they are and whether they can work from a distance...
p.s. if someone from the competing teams is reading this and is going to use it, I want credit...:)
There's actually a song called "I'm my own grandpa" that is based on this story or maybe it's the other way around. I heard it back in HS at least 10 years ago in my Genetics class. We were offered extra credit to figure out how it works and draw a family tree. Here w/ music.
1729 When Srinivasa Ramanujan, the great Indian mathematician, was ill with tuberculosis in a London hospital, his colleague G. H. Hardy went to visit him. Hardy, trying to initiate onversation, said to Ramanujan, "I came here in taxi-cab number 1729. That number seems dull to me which I hope isn't a bad omen."
"Nonsense," replied Ramanujan. "The number isn't dull at all. It's quite interesting. It's the smallest number that can be expressed as the sum of two cubes in two different ways." (Ramanujan recognized that 1729 = 13 + 123 as well as 93 + 103.)
Copied from here I guess it was worth the 5 minutes I spent searching for it.
You'd have one copy that could burn 4 discs, one that could burn 3, one 2, one 1, and one that you couldn't copy at all
Why go through all this? Do it the old school way.
You get force aspi, you get Audiocatalyst or Audiograbber, you rip your CD, and you burn a new one DRM free, or you encode it straight to MP3's.
Done! You have a CD that can be replicated indefinitely.
You may have to use Sound Forge or your favorite sound editing app to remove any DRM induced pauses/noise, but that's rare.
accademics writing papers generaly dont have a clue how to find a good price on bandwith
However, Sysadmins that work for those academics generally have some sort of a clue how to find a good price on bandwith, especially if you're at a large university with a large department of information technology to help you out
It already has for Matrix and LOTR 1 and 2 I've seen LOTR 1 and 2 and they're hillarious. You have to know Russian pretty well though to understand all the humor.
why do you need a card to watch TV when the purpose is to not allow duplication?
You've just answered your own question. They probably have a key on the card that is used to decrypt data or the key on the card is used to generate the copy protection key, so if someone actually does crack the DRM and distributes copies of programs, they'll know where it came from...

Why not an e-Book? They're much lighter, use less energy, and you don't have to rely on a WiFi hotspot to get your reading done
If you survive the major blood loss and actually get to the beach.
I think a simple panic button or a compartment w/ an emergency radio will do.
Guess I have to reply to my own post. It's now resolving...
I think in a pr()n game the user will concentrate on other "features" while moving the mouse/joystick back and forth... :)

because it would be unfair to newcomers to the competition.
OTOH, what top 15 teams? There was a TOTAL of 15 teams qualified!!!
This topic, although w/ slightly different wording has been chewed and swallowed/spat out couple of days ago...
Cool, and original, but not as cool as the parent...

I, for one, welcome our new All-artificial overlords!
ack! should have pasted as HTML instead of plain text... oh well...
Yeah, there are carats missing as you have pointed out.

I picked up A Midsummer Night's Dream w/ Michelle Pfeiffer and Kevin Klein in one of those bins...

Can't wait for LOTR 3 to come out
not going to help the older consumers
That's what grandchildren are for...
Gamy, can we watch the Killer Japanese Battle Seizure Robots? (don't click if you're epileptic...)
I'll show how to make a copy...

It's not long before some kid from Norway writes another version of DeCSS or DeDRM. All he has to do is move to Japan for a month or two...
:)
Anyone live in Japan and want to host him? Anyone know the guys email address?
