If I were to attempt this, I'd probably just get a regular RC aircraft to start with and then rig something like this into the airframe. I'm sure there are cheaper solutions, but it would probably be one of the easiest.
It is my firm belief that they should re-release all the original X-Wing/TIE Fighter games with updated graphics, etc. I would buy them again in a heartbeat.
Ahh well, it was worth a shot. I've actually been moving slowly away from FF myself since 3 came out, but for different reasons. I didn't know they had changed the way the bar worked that much. . . bugger.
Out of curiosity, what browser do you currently use?
Hmm..that's strange, because that's they way I have mine set and it is behaving like a normal url bar with regular old autocomplete on. None of this awesomebar nonesense.
Aha...after some searching, found this:
First, go to your Firefox settings by putting "about:config" into the location bar. Click past the warning message, and scroll down to browser.urlbar.maxRichResults. This sets how many recommendations the Awesome Bar will display -- it's 12 by default, but you want to change it to 0.
It feels so strange. I keep reading all of these "ZOMG teh crashes!!1one" horror stories about iTunes 8 and Vista, and yet I upgraded to 8 on Tuesday and have had not a single issue with it, my iPod, or my iPhone. AFAICT it even runs a little better than 7 did (granted, purely anecdotal...no testing done whatsoever).
Am I the aberration in this case, or are the vocal minority getting WAY out of hand again?
Actually there is a note taking app on the iPhone that works exactly like the swipe demo in that video. Unfortunately I can't recall the name of it at the moment, but my wife uses it all the time.
The implementation is there, now all that remains is to get other software makers to use it.
Hey, I know that Warhammer has been around for-freakin'-ever, but honestly, if you make a game based off of it in the same vein as WoW.....and then go and make it LOOK like WoW, wtf do they expect? I think they would have been better served by further differentiating it stylistically from the lowest-common-denominator game (WoW) that they are competing with. I'm in the beta, and I gotta say....unless you know about how the public quests and PvP works and how to get to them, your experience with the beginning levels of this game is going to be NO different than WoW.
I will now step off of my soapbox and let the War fans mod me down.;-)
Nor am I required to be quiet about the shortcomings I see in their platform. Your point, again?
Well, since Apple has never stated anywhere that I can recall that they are trying to live up to F/OSS expectations, then they can be free of complaint from me, since I didn't expect anything more than what they provide.
Don't get me wrong, I'm all for F/OSS, but this just brings to mind a story I once heard about a toad, a scorpion, and a river.
The FSF does not try to take away your freedom of choice. It discourages you to use proprietary software because of all the drawbacks of proprietary software (i.e. you can not learn what exactly the software does, you can have antifeatures etc) and because Free Software needs a large user base so that you will not be forced to use proprietary software.
No proprietary software company forces any user to use their software. That is the choice of the user. If the user does not know about any of the other choices of software out there, that is not the fault of the proprietary software maker.
Yeah, but then you have the fucking fuckers fucking every-fucking-body and nobody fucking likes it.
No one should figuratively be fucking anyone, only literally fucking them.
Of course, then you get fuckers trying to replace figuratively fucking with literally fucking, and the fucking gets REALLY fucking wierd.
I think you missed what dexomn was saying.
I think that in your original post, you meant to say "...it just ends up being something to shoot holes in " and not "it just ends up being something to shoot holes at."
Wow, I never knew about that mod. I'll have to give that a whirl.

Oh, I would *so* be there.

Ah, then it was
accessibility.typeaheadfind.flashBar
Set that to zero.
Change it's value to false by double clicking on it. There, now your 'awesome bar' is a regular URL bar.
You're welcome.
I think you are referring to the Dash GPS. I haven't used one myself, but it at least looks interesting.

I have been informed by my lovely wife that it is called Writingpad.

If magic were logical, it'd be science.

Well, I did leave a rather big setup open. At least I thought it was funnier than saying something about biting wax tadpoles or bringing some ancestors back from the dead.
Good lord, no bites to My hovercraft is full of eels"??
I don't have time to play this, my hovercraft is full of eels! *pretends to strike a match*
The gameplay sounds an awful lot like Warhawk on the PS3. That isn't a bad thing.
Ha! Always nice to come across another Buckaroo fan unexpectedly.
You work at the White House?
