probably why they disappeared.

might well be he was wearing a yellow star. am gonna look into the story later to see if he was in an area already controlled by the germans which would make the wearing of the yellow star of david on his clothing mandatory.

:2funny: :2funny: :2funny: :2funny: :2funny: :2funny: :2funny: :2funny: :2funny: :2funny: :2funny: but to get my mind back out of the gutter... schindlers list wouldn't really make my need to watch list for my son. not the top of it anyway. more the kind of movie that shows that all war, no matter what the cause, is hell. the longest day a bridge too far blackhawk down flags of our fathers letters from iwo jima full metal jacket terminator 1 and 2 bridge on the river kwai

that will be the type that uses clusters of leds to display each pixel. it has nothing to do with a tft lcd display that is backlit by leds. the point of having an led backlit display is that in a standard lcd display all the light comes from a single light source at the top or bottom of the display that is spread to cover the screen by an array of reflectors. with an led backlight there are number of leds backlighting the display spread out over the entire area. this gives better light distribution, more brightness depending on the number of leds used and usually less power consumption. this is opposite to the large scale led display you mentioned. that eats a buttload of power for cooling of the embedded circuits controlling the board. and if a pixel goes out, you're in trouble. it means climbing into the bastard from behind. and you can't really tell where on the board you are from there. so you have to have somebody on the ground guide you in. that means shutting off an area and having him tell you higher, lower, left, right, until you find the offending circuit. and on a display that large the circuitboard for a pixel is probably several inches by several inches with dozens of leds on it.

i like the engine braking / power storage with the compressed air part. a lot better than those damned battery hybrids. you can even use that as an a/c. cool the compressed air down to ambient and then bleed it into the passenger compatment. the decompression cools it off. voila. a/c.

the presentation on the design on the scuderigroup site is well done. did you watch it? they also have a pdf on there that explains the principle.

hm. get a sata 1 drive cuz it's gonna be cheaper than a newer model drive and probably fast enough?

like i said. best of both worlds.

mac. mac. mac. who cares about exact specs? mac is sleek. it's cool. it lets you run macos and windows and linux. it looks sweet. it looks pricey. (well, it IS expensive. but it has a certain coolness factor you won't get from any other vendor.

do a tracert here or somewhere else. usually the point where the connection gets handed over to one of the major backbone providers is the point where your isps central systems are located and that is the location that the ip will be registered to. the fact that you are using a wireless connection that could theoretically be located doesn't change that. the provider may keep track of the origin of your signal but that info will ot usually be available to someone looking up the ip from the net. they will just see the whois info. do a reverse whois on the ip and it should give you you isp with his location as the owner. just to reassure you, there is nothing weird going on.

the internet provider you areusing is probably registered at that location. the provider "owns" the ip and "leases" it to you. if someone looks it up it shows up as him however.

obviously it wasn't built as well. how can you tell? the front fell off. rotflmbfhao. now i don't know if this is a spoof or not, but it is funny as hell.

every provider has a bandwidth cap. it's wether or not they have a volume cap that is the point

i was spending the week at an undisclosed location with only dialup access that had such poor line quality that it maxed out at 16.8 kbps. so aside from tracking dean i was pretty much offline.

:2funny: :2funny: :2funny: :2funny: sorry, i thought the so you're saying it's just a rumor was referring to my post about the mayor screwing around.

well, i heard it from a 3rd party, so i call it rumor. have you heard of it?

UPDATE

yeah. it was hot today. had to turn up the a/c to keep it at 70...

maybe he had his mouth full?
