And that's why you take the extra few seconds to actually look up charging stations? It's really not that difficult to put a little more effort into the planning stages of a trip. Gas won't be around forever, so come up with a better solution instead of touting the negatives?

My car gets 300(ish). Not that far off... Who the hell goes 130? I won't drive my car faster than 80MPH. Why is top speed such a big deal to people? People who tout hydrogen over electric as the "next big thing" don't know what is involved in building an infrastructure, distribution...

You just made my head explode :confused:.

Holy comments, batman! I can't begin to express how awesome you all are for everything that you've said. I means a bunch to me! I can't reply to everyone, so if I don't, please know that it really puts a smile on my face. Thanks! At the time, I've only been working with CNCs for a few...

I apologize for not really keeping the log on this site. If you want to take a look at the log in it's entirety, please go here http://forums.bit-tech.net/showthread.php?t=178915&page=1 Else, here are some final pictures.

Bingo. I forget what the statistic is, but quite a few people that start engineering degrees don't actually finish, and stop within 2 years (when the 'actual' coursework begins).

Because I don't have one?

Watch the video again. He's right on. There's a fishing line woven in the pattern to lift it higher. He wasn't saying that it isn't real, the line is just 'helping it' in order for this video to be anything special. Watch at 0:48.

Yeah...this isn't so much 'invisibility' as a simple reflection caused by heat rising - see mirage. Meh.

Go back to your hole.

This really has nothing to do with Google or Facebook...people have been doing this for years.

Ugh..FINE! Francis. :(

Yes I know all of this...my statement was an opinion. It's the way (logically) things should be. Honestly I don't know how anyone makes any money off of radio advertisements, who listens to them anyway? Like I was saying, the entire reason they never cared was because they KNEW it didn't...

I don't buy this. Back in the good ol' days you would make a mixed tape by popping a cassette into the recorder and recording a song on a radio station. Is that piracy? I think not. It is in the public domain already (see patents). Plus, when was the last time in the 80s and 90s you heard...

:confused:

~ 200 mile

Sorry...but what was the end goal here? A RG machine is defined as something that actually accomplishes a task, albeit by doing a million other things in between. Fail.

Oh I completely agree. Do you know what's preposterous? The NIF at L3 is planning to use...wait for it...a steam turbine after their fusion process. FUSION! I would think at this point people would understand the limitations of Carnot.

Forget weapon applications, think about ridiculous energy generation.

Next step? Let's create an energy conversion device that can turn energy directly into electricity so we can move past this silly heat cycle fad. After that? Let's throw in a cookie :-).

Because they aren't efficient enough to justify the cost, especially since these devices draw so much power (would need much more area than the device itself)? Also, how often are people really outside anymore? Disclaimer: TL:DR

You know what's more Impressive? Your clear lack of understanding of sarcasm.

Trade secrets? Oh, you mean the 'proprietary' process they invented to take 25% of the transaction and screw the honest people if there is a dispute?

2-17-2010 Well I haven't had any progress on the case since this weekend, but I figured I would post a little somethin' somethin' to keep you busy until I do. I ordered some sleeving from MDPC-x quite a while ago. I just never got around to posting the pictures! As for color choice, I got...

Balls...at least I only get my gas at the Shell around here.

2/1/2010 Hello all, and Happy February! I've been buuuuusy lately, but also busy with the project! I'm in the midst of working on it right now, but I figured I would give you guys a little teaser. More to come! 2/3/2010 Finally, an update! No work done the past day though...

Thank you much. Follow this link to see the dimensions (http://www.formfactors.org/developer/specs/Mini-ITX%20Addendum_V1_Feb%202009.pdf). 1/9/2011 1/10/2011 Well @#(*$&. Seems like the edge of the bit caught something, or some rapid move moved too fast, and took a nice chunk...

Good news....all of the big pieces are CNCed! Yay! The only things left are the frontplate, the mounting pieces, and the motherboard backplate (some dimensions were a tiny bit off on the first one). On Sunday, I was in the process of making the other side piece. Since I forgot to take...

Completely forgive me for my lack of attention to this thread. I've been posting on another forum (*shameful*) quite more regularly. I'm going to do my best to catch this one one, as it has about a years worth of work to jam in, albeit spread out over the course of a few weeks. Here we go...

Mmmm pretty colors.

TLDR I fail to see how the slow-ass moving traffic will cause nearly as many vibrations as fast moving traffic. Has this guy ever sat in 880, 101, or 280 traffic during rush hour? Apparently not.

Why didn't the skeleton go to the party? Cause he had nobody to go with!

I'm not taking a picture of my feet... But XFX has always been the 'one that got away' for me.

Sigh. All that work on the beautiful graphics and the dust coming up from the footprints looks like it was done in the 90's? GAH.

What no cop out? I like the modularity.

Er, epic writing fail... ...eye candy as long as you put a foot or a hand..."

I've said it before and I'll say it again...I don't give a damn about all the eye candy you put in if a foot or a hand on the ground SLIDES instead of sticks.

Uh. What? How don't they work as well in reality? They are freaking amazing. Have you ridden in a Tesla? Probably not. I have, and I have several friends that work at the company. If you get in one and come out not smiling, you should probably have your happy fun place checked. Range...

Sigh. Can't anyone make a game where the feet or hands, when they hit the ground, stop moving? I hate that sliding effect (like in the vents). It's 2011 people!
