Pabloselbow CA (/.) 7/13/00 4:42 PM ID Games announced today a complete departure from traditional shoot em' up games with the release of a carve em' up role playing adventure called: Pig Process IV! "The Oinking".
This release has drawn a lot of attention from groups apposed to such violence in the media including Louise McCausland B.E.'s director of film classification.
Starting Wednesday, it is against the law in Pabloselbow to rent the popular game Pig Process IV to people under 18 years old.
Pig Process IV allows users to assume the identity of the pig as it's being slaughtered. An experience that, many say, is just to overwhelming for the children.
"Depending on which industrial machine tool is used, the participant can experience the gory violence that results in the horror of evisceration, , gutting, decapitation and dismemberment" said a report from Louise McCausland, B.E.'s director of film classification.
She classified "Pig Process IV" as an adult game after a parent complained about its level of violence saying: "Yea, everyone loves Wilber, and we appreciate the work that PETA has done to bring this game to market, but this is just sick." ___
Re:writes: Even commercially available polycrystalline synthetic diamond with advertised strengths of 5 GPa would work.
PCD (polycrystalline diamond) is an interesting material with wonderful hardness but the process used to create it yields small diamonds. Picture, if you will, an elephant in high heals standing on some charcoal. The pressure exerted toward the charcoal (pounds per square inch) is increased by the high heals ability to focus the wait onto a smaller point. It's this high amount of pressure (and the machinery around the PCD to contain the pressure) that leads to relatively small pieces of PCD that would be a poor choice for building such a structure.
Your best bet, at least in the near future, would be carbon nanotubes or some other derivative of the buckyball. Some bits of wild speculation has found that, at least on paper, the CNT (carbon nanotube) could have enough tensile strength to tether a salelite in LEO. ___

Re:".. kind of makes you wonder how many "features" in software or computers in general were developed by somebody who was about to zonk out from over-caffination riding over pure exhaustion."
You bring up an interesting point about bandwidth and you're right. The searches are to bandwidth intensive (can you imagine running gnutella at 28.8? ..yuck). A bot (on a *very* fat pipe) that crawls ~4000 GNUtella hosts on a timely basis and only indexes the html content could serve up http based searches in a browser and remove a little of the overhead involved in searching on gnutella. Then, once the user finds the content they need they would click link something like this: gnutella://123.412.112.223/gnutellastuff/content.h tml. This hyperlink selection would start gnutella and could be passed through the gnutella plugin and shown again in the browser (Note: no DNS needed for the domain as we're using the other users IP).
Even after all of this, we still come back to the point you raised about bandwidth. Every peered computer serving up content would have to have a 256k+ connection in order to make such a scheme even remotely useable because they need to handle the existing searches of a growing host list and they need to handle new search bots consuming their bandwidth with "deep scans". Perhaps DSLnet would be a better name for this.
This does have it's advantages, as it would be:
1) Built on existing technologies (Browsers, Gnutella packets, indexing bots). 2) It would give a point and click interface to a distributed file sharing network with no central control.
GNUtella is Distributed with no central control showing conected computers in real time. This peer to peer type of conection is the perfect "pirate DNS". The only problem is that the searches work on a file name level. What would help is a spyder or bot to crawl gnutella and index all the html content. hmm I wonder if gnutellabot.com is taken.;) ___
Some kind of bio-network that uses the electrolyte the bots are submerged in (much like receptors on a cell) would be required to give command and control to these little rippers.
Wow, you could give each one a grit and command them to move to the stove. What would you have then?;) ___
