the "myth" has no place here. It is the exact same processor architecture except it clocks 2.5 times faster. Calculators are much more simple than your average PC (no multitasking (natively, at least) and not many things it can do).
and just as a random fact that serves nearly no purpose, it's a z80 processor
I think the world would benefit from a Zelda trilogy. Three movies, one storyline, Link meets Zelda for the first time three times.
but seriously, Zelda COULD make an awesome film or group of films. I've always wanted to see A Link to the Past as a film... there is plenty of story for several films.
the problem, of course would be adapting the storyline to be suitable for a film. The best game to adapt to a movie would be, in my opinion, A Link to the Past. I can already see the scene where Link first arrives in the dark world... and it is beautifully done. (i don't know about peter jackson, though... why does everyone automatically assume he's the best director ever for fantasy? he's not.)
I don't understand why a new search engine would make anyone nervous. Are they going to allow people to search for credit card numbers? bank account information? personal home addresses?
That comment really baffles me... if it makes you THAT nervous, DON'T use it.
I don't see how it could harm you if you don't use it... google's not going anywhere, even if another search engine takes over as "most popular"
i reset the entire system on my sisters' computer about a week ago. I was using it for some random stuff the other day and they already have installed several adware and spyware programs.
that 'small' magnetization current can be created without itself, simply with the generator with the natural magnets. That will create enough electricity to run the "small" current which will allow it to create the desired amount.
put 2 magnets an inch away from eachother and let go of ONE of them. (attractive sides facing eachother). Where did the energy come from? why, magnetism!
No one is being forced to run a red light any more than they would be with a bit of bad luck. The light will remain yellow just as long as it would normally.. so if you were unlucky to get there on a normal signal at the exact wrong time, the results would be the same.
and as the sibling poster pointed out, you don't have to stop in 4 seconds. you have to stop in 350 feet (a football field, including the endzones)... i'm too lazy to give you the exact decelleration you'd need, but it's not 88 feet per second per second.

I started out with the one element I knew would take me the longest, the helmet. I should mention that any time I have to work on a helmet or loose-fitting full-head mask, I use a bust that I created just for this purpose.
The bust began with a standard life-mask made with plaster impregnated bandages available at craft and medical supply stores. As you might have guessed, I sat for about half an hour with pieces of drinking straw up my nose, while my mother wrapped my Vaseline coated face in plaster bandage. After the bandages had set, the cast was carefully removed and the breathing holes patched with small pieces of bandage, and more Vaseline applied to the inner surface of the mold. I then poured plaster of paris into the life-mask, let it set, and carefully removed the finished life-mask. I sculpted a bust around the life-mask, all the way down to the beginning of the shoulders. This involved taking measurements from my head and comparing the bust to them, until the basic geometric requirements had been met, and then using a bit of "finesse" to make everything fit together properly.
The original helmets used for the film were a style of hockey helmet in use at the time, extended slightly at the back to hide the hairline. Since I couldn't lay my hands on one on short notice, I began sculpting it in oil-based clay over my custom-made bust. I used paper templates as a guide to insure that the sculpture maintained it's goemetric qualities, and to make sure the side details would remain symmetrical. Finally, a plaster mold was made, and a positive cast made with a cellulose-based material called Celastic. If I had it to do over, I would have cast it in polyester resin and fiberglass, since Celastic must be dissolved in acetone (which is relatively toxic if not handled properly), and must be sanded and filled before being painted and finished. Alternately, I could have broken the original up into sections and vacu-formed it, but we live and learn! The finished positive, after having been filled and sanded, was painted with a cheap, white, oil-based primer (which has yellowed with age - next time I'll use acrylics), and detailed with the circuit pattern. Lastly, the interior was padded to make it more comfortable to wear.
In the images above you see some of the painted circuitry work being done by hand. I could have masked all of this off, but it was faster to do it "freehand". The "disc", is a glow-in-the-dark frisbee with most of the surface detail sanded off, and new stripes scribed in and painted flourescent blue. The shoulder and arm guards are formed from Celastic in much the same way as the helmet, and attatched to the leotard with small pieces of elastic glued to the pieces and sewn to the costume body.

First thing to find was some armor. For this, I went to Play It Again Sports (the BEST place to get Halloween gear IMHO) Anyway, I picked up some Hockey gear, which looks amazingly similar to Tron gear. Some hockey helmets look almost identical to the Tron helmets. I found a GREAT helmet used for pretty darn cheap. Then I needed a chest plate because I'm a scrawny little guy and a plain tight T-shirt would have looked too wussy. I found a wonderful thing for baseball catcher's (maybe) and it was great. Had a big chest plate on it and some nice big round shoulder covers. Then I just got some Soccer shin guards to use as those things that Tron has coming off of his elbows. Just wear shin guards on your wrist, with your hand coming through where the foot goes, and the shin part running up your forearm, mocking the things that Tron has quite well. So that takes care of most of your upper body.
Then at Play It Again Sports I bought an old weight lifters belt to wear, well, as a belt. It defines the look a little better, though drawing lines on the shirt would work as well. And then I bought some old moon boots at Goodwill (okay, goodwill is probably the best Hallowe

Not at all. The different calculators are aimed at different groups and for different purposes.
The 92/+/v200 are aimed at engineers and other professions/things to do while the 83/+/84/+ are aimed at highschool students (mainly).

here's a google translation of a japanese page with apparently the same product.

if they do, they definitely don't scan them.

i reset the entire system on my sisters' computer about a week ago. I was using it for some random stuff the other day and they already have installed several adware and spyware programs.
but the light sensor has a lifetime of 1 year... and a few of the other blocks are only good for 2-3 years.
not sure if that's good for the average person with no programming abilities (the type of people who won't read about stuff)
No what? Did i say something that was incorrect?
"it's a bit like gravity"
and gravity is a force that creates energy, just like magnetism.
that 'small' magnetization current can be created without itself, simply with the generator with the natural magnets. That will create enough electricity to run the "small" current which will allow it to create the desired amount.
a generator CREATES electricity. NONE is required as input.
electricty + magnets != generator.
magnets + mechanical motion = generator, which outputs electricity.
magnetism has been explained, afaik.
put 2 magnets an inch away from eachother and let go of ONE of them. (attractive sides facing eachother). Where did the energy come from? why, magnetism!
electricty + magnets = motor. go back to school.
I wonder how long before someone with lots of time on their hands hacks into the system and starts tampering with the messages.
You mean if someone can get access to the system? I doubt there would be any "hacking" involved.
as well as the general area demographics
which ads don't?
True, the article only sort of explains the questions i have about this guy...
-is it safe?
-is it reliable?
-what can it do?
I don't know... What do you think about "pearl"?
Good for technological growth, not practical
too expensive
good and practical
we'll see in time
