    Squadron of Lost WWII Spitfires to Be Exhumed

    Not being up on the missile/weapon tech and that lot. Would the weapons have any trouble locking on to a Spitfire or a p51? I'd assume a smaller heat signature compared to a modern jet engine. No idea what their foot print on a radar would look like. I'm pretty sure there has never been a...

    I've been looking and I can't seem to find anything. I'm buying Black OPs tomorrow for 360 and I want the extra WAW Zombie maps. In WAW I bought the DLC Zombie maps so I was wondering if anyone actually knows if that DLC maps from WAW will be picked up with the basic copy of Black Ops. I'd...

    Defrag RAID volumes?

    I still use windows defrag on my file server at home. If your cheap and don't want to buy a product to auto defrag simply create a batch file what contains Defrag.exe c: -f Then use the scheduler to run it as ever often that you want. My large raid 5 array gets defraged every second day at...

    Bedroom Speakers

    Yeah I know it is. The IR remote would be more important than multiple inputs. I'm kind of looking at a mini HT system instead a 2.1 setup with IR remote would be awesome but not looking like its going to happen

    Bedroom Speakers

    I'd like to keep it under 200 CND but as always cheaper is better as the money can then be spent other places like upgrading storage space :D

    Best streaming video box?

    XBMC in linux on a Ion platform is susposed to be pretty sweet as it can do hardware decoding I have a WD TV Live in my bedroom just to replace my xbox 1 with XBMC. So far its been working quiet nicely even streaming 1080p off my 100mb network. My dislikes of it. The menu and nav is a little...

    Bedroom Speakers

    I have my nice HTPC in my rec room (winXP with XBMC) hooked up to my 52inch LCD with a nice 5.1 system I've built over the last few years. In my bedroom I have/had a Xbox first gen using XBMC hooked to my 37inch LCD. This has treated me well for many years but the lack of power is showing as it...

    Modified Web Proxy

    Its more of just a little pet project type thing. Or a proof of concept to see if it would actually do anything to performance. I've been bored at work :) I'm completely up to the possibility you would be 100% correct and it not actually adding performance and possibly degrade it. Its just been...

    Modified Web Proxy

    Oh I know and that is a concern. It would use a lot more BW. in fact it would be a huge huge hog, not denying that at all. Speed issues could also come up depending on how many request are made to this at once. If you had 5 users at once requesting a page (which then downloads say 100 other...

    Modified Web Proxy

    It wouldn't be hard to do. You just need a counter to stop it from going to deep. programs that copy websites already do this quiet well

    Modified Web Proxy

    Oh yeah I agree with the hog part but I wouldn't be going deep deep. Like 2 deep. So when you click on the next page its already there. It would be funny to have it set to like 20 deep and end up trying to download the internet. This implementation wouldn't be a good idea for large number of...

    Modified Web Proxy

    I wasn't sure if I should put it here or web programing so I'll try here. I had an idea the other night and its probably not a new one. Has anyone ever heard of a proxy server that is proactive? Think of combining a spider download program that will go X number of levels deep in gathering links...

    GTA and sub woofer

    I've got a really annoying problem. My sub woofer refuses to turn when playing GTA. It works in everything else but GTA. I talked to a friend who played GTA on PS2 and he said there wasn't much of a LFE. Has anyone else noticed this? Xbox 360 connected to my TV via HDMI Connected to my...

    Using a USB drive as an OS

    I can deal without gaming if need be I'll just resort to watching movies and drinking. I'm not worried about speed since a 7200 RPM USB vs a 5400 rpm laptop drive won't be a huge huge difference. Vista won't install on a USB drive natively (doesn't support installation on USB or firewire) I'm...

    Using a USB drive as an OS

    So I might be going away for a while and leaving my desktop PC at home. I have a nice work laptop (T60 Thinkpad) but I want to keep play and work separate. Don't think work would like me with games and torrents on it. So I'm looking for some options. I'd love to dual boot it but I don't have the...

    360 Banhammer Has Started.

    I try and stay out of threads like this but MS doesn't get 60 bucks a game no where close to that. IIRC when a buddy of mine was working for Futureshop in the system it showed how much they (being Futureshop) either bought the game for or needed to sell the game for to make a profit. It was...

    Address book

    I've been looking for a way to transfer the address book in OSX into another program like entourage or anything really. Getting it into a PST in Outlook would be fine or even like a ascii file. I know you can export the address book into a vcard that has multiple entries but I can't seem to get...

    Ok maybe I'm missing something about wiiconnect and someone can set me straight. I don't want it always connected (waste of power and yes I know its like 15watts or something) but still don't want it. So the way I read the manual if I have wiiconnect24 turned on and standby turned off, it...
