I agree with Krom and tunnelcat. There are times when things need to be classified. The same reason applies to why you don't tell your opponent your thoughts and strategy during a game of Chess. Granted, inter-state happenings are a couple of orders of magnitude more important. I have no proof, exce...

Come to think of it... I dug out one of my power packs recently to hook up a case fan to. This way it was multi-speed without needing to be plugged into the motherboard.

I still have my HO scale train set in a box somewhere... Actually two sets, and a dozen or so kit cars that I put together. Hopefully I get to a point in my life where I can return to them.

I can't think of an application off-hand, but I get the feeling that researchers such as these folks are 20+ years of getting within striking range of a possible, sane application of something like that.

Neat...

Like I said, incredably expensive, and unneeded for my current purposes, but neat

I see.... so it's simply a matter that although the brain can't distinguish individual colors, it makes it easy to get in between colors, much like the resolution of an image of a circle can show if the circle appears smooth, or jagged?

America's Army and BF Series are my favorites AA was a blast. It's a shame that they can't make good ground-pounder military games without giving you moronic teammates. Even the best AI in the world will break down at some point... Also, the Army was likely trying to enforce teamwork with real peop...

Got this one . Paid 900, happy as a clam. :) Although I won't have an extra $900 to drop on a monitor anytime soon, I took a look at the page, for kicks. It looks like a great screen, though I question the "over a billion colors" claim. Even if it was cabable, the human eye can only disti...

Wow! That's awesome!

I wonder how it works... Does the mod force the sending of additional position packets?

Democratic Senate and President + Republican house = Absolutely nothing is going to get done in the next two years, especially not any of the "roll backs" that republicans are promising. The only things that are going to get done are the stuff both parties want, which in the end is more f...

This is one of the few times (it seems) that I agree with you 95%. Doing stupid stuff is great, do it on your own time in a location that isn't potentially lethal to those who aren't taking their own life in their hands.

Sorry I don't read liberal BS For once I can agree with you. It's BS. That's the point of The Onion. You know, I ... Has everyone forgotten that sad little fact? I'm wondering what little tid-bits are within the Bible or Torah say similar things, but are considered "depreciated", or are g...

d3jake, I dare you to watch it. ;) Oh noes! A dare! That means I have to watch it! For the sake of humor, I did watch it all of the way to the end. Although I cannot refute (nor would I care to waste time doing so) every thing that this fellow flung out, I can say that what he's saying isn't comple...

The building to be rebuilt into the mosque was struck by debris and possibly human remains from one of the hijacked planes- hence it is just as much a part of ground zero as the towers. Typically the term "ground zero" is applied to the central-most location that an event has happened. Cl...

Building a triumphal mosque on ground zero ... I keep seeing this come up in many places. Perhaps I need to clarify for those geographically challenged. The location in question is not on ground zero. I will openly concede near or down the street from but to say that the plot of land in question is...

1) They are telling us they want to push back against the radicals by building this center but actually it will be the radicals who will fund it! Perhaps I missed it as I haven't been following this thread nearly as close as others, but I have to ask: Aside from a group of nutcases using Islam to j...

Agreed. The correlation is trivial at best.

At the very least, boot your computer with both monitors connected. I don't know if Vista\\7 are any better with this, but XP won't detect another monitor connected after bootup.

Sure, it's proximity to the Twin Towers location is painful to some (mostly those who hate the religion, not the perpetrators) and that may seem insensitive to those people. It's not meant to be, and it wasn't the religion that was the perpetrators of 9/11, it was perpetrated by filled with hate. T...

This whole conspiracy scenario is ridiculous on it's face.

Obama wasn't lying and you need to go to church. I'm sure more than I will make comment on this... but I have to say something.

Z is right. Both major political camps of thought do enough to justify their existence in our government, and that's about it. Short of heeding to special interests of course.
