Pedestrians React to Motorbike Exhaust

Piers Morgan: "You are an incredibly stupid man"

MayaBaba says...

OK, again I'm not an American. But I have an opinion.
And the technology already exists to do this.
Let them keep the guns ... but...the bullets!

All bullets to be coded!
~ Ownership of Non coded bullets - LIFE Sentence.

Only Coded bullets can be sold.
~ Selling of Non coded bullets - LIFE Sentence.

When coded bullets are bought, the serial number of the gun, the coded bullets are to be fired from, must be declared.
~ Selling of coded bullets without proper declaration. - LIFE Sentence.

After bullets are fired the user must declare where the bullets were fired, and at what they were fired at.
~ Owner not declaring - up to 10 years custody.

Silencers illegal!
~ Ownership of silencer - LIFE Sentence.

Hidden weapons including shoulder and ankle holsters. illegal!
~ Ownership of such. - LIFE Sentence.

Automatic Weapons. Illegal!
~ Ownership of such. - LIFE Sentence.

Any modifications made to a firearm. Illegal!
~ Ownership of such. - LIFE Sentence.

NON USA manufactured weapons. Illegal!
~ Ownership of such. - LIFE Sentence.

Mind you I can be a bit flexible on all this........just a starting point.

Fortunately my country does not let me own a firearm.

Photo-Realistic Virtual World Rendered LIVE server-side

zeoverlord says...

So i was playing saints row the third earlier today and save for some reflections and the quality of some of the textures and lighting it's not far off, in fact i am pretty sure next generation consoles will be able to reproduce most of this and more without modification (reflections are still tricky, but you can fake those)

Chinese Farmer Creates Wind-Powered Car

Barbar says...

I'm not so sure, Drachen.

If the car was going to push that air anyways, then there would be less additional drag from the turbine, no? This isn't the same situation as attaching the turbine to the top of the car, or having it stick out the side. We're concerned about the net effect on the vehicle's drag.

If I'm not mistaken, then this energy is not coming from nowhere, but is rather a portion of the energy being wasted to push the air in front of the car that is being returned.

Will it ever be enough to drive the care on it's own? No, I don't think so, without significant modifications and a steady breeze. But that doesn't mean it can't contribute to the vehicles efficiency.

All this is little more than idle speculation though. I def need to read more on the drag effects of turbines.

TOYOTA GT86: The Real Deal Advert

mizume says...

It's been a very long time since Toyota has had a car like this. I think this will be the next major tuner car for gear heads. The mild difference between the Subaru version and the Toyota (Scion) version is going to make the Toyota much more appealing (unless it becomes too common and people get the Subaru just to have a different badge, and color options, then modify the suspension themselves). Toyota is talking about using the same flat boxter engine with turbo applications in future cars (rumors are about it being the next Supra), but the turbo combination doesn't seem likely to make it to America any time soon. Fortunately, Toyota knows what it has and is trying to court the after market tuners. They've already given an FR-S to GReddy, and it's only a matter of time before AEM, HKS, and the other attainable tuners start pumping out functional improvement modifications.

The engine hits the ideal 100 HP per liter of engine mark. It's rear wheel drive. It's inexpensive and aimed at a youthful audience. This car's going to be a big thing.

CryEngine3 - Tech Trailer (Crysis 3)

kceaton1 says...

That was som superb and *quality software engineering in there. If this one opens up just like Crysis 1 (the one truly meant for computers, and it's older but smaller brother Far Cry REALLY showed you what this engine has to offer in open-ended gameplay), if you pull down walls, open all the buildings, and truly force you to think outside the box again (back when your gun was usually the LAST thing you would resort too as everything else--every other option was FAR more fun. You felt like a demi-God that was dropped off in a hot zone to deal with insects, until you meet the aliens and the ante is brought up. All that fun you had, NOW it really gets tested.

But, with consoles some of the scope has been killed, like in Cnrysis 2. I hate to say that, but it pisses a lot of PC Gamers off. But, luckily they are still developing basically everything on the PC. But, some changesg I'D like to see are: huge, unlimited outdoor areas (like Crysis UNO), up to and over 100 objects--that is aliens and people plus moving vehicles and things like this that are active in the frame--are supported (with the computing power we have I'm sure they could max out your field of vision), drastically increased object A.I. From enemies to super-graphic-froggies, further increases and even more (as I do know they've added some, like the "smart crumpling" of cars--making crashes FAR more realistic and neat) to the overall Physics system--inevitably I hope it would be the core component to every program element in the game before ANYTHING else happens (basically, it is the tried and true foundational component for the whole show, I would hope with some programmers that know Physics and Engineering--being able to reproduce in-game MACHINES and inventions of their own...--well AND enjoy it, and more programmers that like Physics too, but they are fans of very well done science fiction and comics--that way you have an aggressive "baseline" controlling everything except for a small section which the science fiction and comics crew can come up--I mean if they really get ambitious, eventually, they could add Biology; The sky is the limit!--and they'd add in elements for all the nano-technology, possibly genetic modification (which is just a few lines of code right now), everything the aliens need ( which means there would. Have to be a "theoretical Physics add-on to the full Physics component...

In the future if they just kept developing this Engine to say Cry Engine ver 15.0, just imagine the literal mind-blowing capabilities this thing could do and produce. You might have scientists from every field, even the military, involved in it's development--people from jobs and different walks of life (like a cancer survivor)--across the world inputting their most-valuable lifetime of experiences.

The game may not be Crysis anymore, but maybe a lot of people will finally realize that not only does your game get better with more infomation... But, if you have an accurate enough simulator to life, AMAZING things can be done. We can, all day create craft to fly in, see what fails IMMEDIATLY and the others that produce Hypersonic flight with LOW fuel usage. The possibilities would be endless, and the frog could become a virtual pet.

So I really hope they come full throttle to the PC and create a secondary division dealing with the consoles from the barebones PC Realese. Thus allowing them to push the technology to it's boundaries!

None-the-less I love the CryEngine out of any other for playing a game--a modern game.

White Trashed Knight Rider Car

chingalera says...

..Coot looks like he wanted to get some extra mileage outta those modifications....

He's got the oscilloscope modified for hypothetical negative energy conversion..

That display in the center is so positioned to interface with the the invariance of the speed of light created by compensation for inference, and I'm only guessing here, that those buttons on the steering wheel/alignment cradle are some sort of Michelson-Morley interferometer.

Got a great deal onnit but he won't be able to keep a wormhole stable in an open perimeter....good try though, looks like someone helped their kid win a pre-school science fair!!

Colbert - On the Straight and Narrow Minded

AnomalousDatum says...

I had to look up the "We oppose the teaching of...critical thinking skills." bit.

"Knowledge-Based Education – We oppose the teaching of Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) (values clarification), critical thinking skills and similar programs that are simply a relabeling of Outcome-Based Education (OBE) (mastery learning) which focus on behavior modification and have the purpose of challenging the student’s fixed beliefs and undermining parental authority."

But they do support beating snot-nosed punks at least...
"Classroom Discipline –We recommend that local school boards and classroom teachers be given more authority to deal with disciplinary problems. Corporal punishment is effective and legal in Texas."

But damn it, they want to illegalize pornography, this cannot stand!
"Addictive Behaviors – We encourage state and federal governments to severely prosecute illegal dealers and manufacturers of addictive substances and pornography. We urge Congress to discourage import of such substances into our country. Faith based rehabilitation programs should be emphasized. We oppose legalization of illicit drugs. We support an effective abstinence-based educational program for children. We oppose any “needle exchange” program. We urge vigorous enforcement of our DUI laws."

Anyway, even if they didn't mean to include the words "critical thinking skills", they still don't want people to have the ability to reevaluate fixed-beliefs. Which require critical thinking skills. Damn, they accidentally said what they meant.

Inside a Scientology Marriage

Xaielao says...

>> ^A10anis:

What is the difference between a "cult" and any other "faith?" There is NO difference. They all take advantage of the weak, desperate, and gullible. They all have leaders who exploit these peoples weaknesses for their own ends. They will all end up consigned to the history class when we realize that education is the key. When you are educated you begin asking questions, which is exactly what these cult leaders want to prevent. Stay stupid and a slave, or get educated and be free.


Why do you think the most conservative and religiously active states, GOP and church leaders actively trying to push critical thinking out of their schools. Texas openly moving away from teaching 'higher order education and critical thinking in favor of outcome-based education that focuses on behavior modification'. As well the bible belt has by far the highest per capita rate of home schooling. Keep your kids uneducated and you keep them religiously indoctrinated and voting republican.

I've said it before I'll say it again. I blame the puritans!
