Dude, do not skimp on LIPO packs. Spend the money on good packs. I use Thunder Power in my trex. Don't forget you'll need a good charger for the packs. I use a Hobbico Accu-Cycle Elite. It's programmable and can charge all current types of packs you can buy from NICAD to NIMH to LIPO. And you...

There are way too many variables here to be sure, but it sounds like a DNS issue. On your machine, do an nslookup for the hostname, and then do the same on another machine that's not working. From the description of the issue, I suspect the other machine will not be able to resolve the...

Kids these days. All graphics and no game play. Let's see, best games of all time. River City Ransom Chrono Trigger Killer Instinct (best fighting game ever! Invented combos!) Double Dragon Mike Tyson's Punch Out Bubble Bobble Bases Loaded Street Fighter The only recent game I'd add is Mario...

PSUs are designed to run with a load on a 5v rail. When I converted my PSU to charge R/C batteries, I had to put a 25W 2ohm resistor on a 5v rail in order to bring the operating voltages up. Although I was using the 12v rail. Not sure if it makes a difference on the 5v rails.

Check the current across the wires of the PSU? Is this a PSU salvaged from a PC?

They may lack a bit graphics wise. In my opinion, no FPS out there comes close to the complexity of Tremulous. So much depth in that game. Nexiuz is very Quake 3-ish. The reason I love Trem is because FPS have gone stale. With very limited exceptions (BF1942), all FPS are the same. Just...

Nexiuz and Tremulous Tremulous has the most depth and strategy I've ever experienced in an FPS. Both are free, btw.

I'd rep you if I could. This is sage wisdom. As far as grammar, at least he hit the 50% mark for forming actual sentences. :-?

We all like to make fun of WL, but with this really necessary? 1) Most Powerful "Powerful" is a marketing term, much like gourmet. It all depends on how they define "powerful". They are not misleading anyone, just as the $1 pack of gourmet hot dogs I just bought is not misleading me. 2) Pop...

This is the same method that powers crystal radios. The idea is so 1970.

Quote for truth! Although <p> does have an end tag </p>. But otherwise, you are correct my good sir. charlie bruce, why would you use a depreciated <center> tag when the proper way to do it would be using css setting left and right margins to auto? W3schools isn't "crushed" due to proper...

Ugh, <br>? Have you kept up with industry standards at all? <br> is not xhtml valid code. And neither is <center>. http://www.w3schools.com/ Read, learn it, live it. You will not be taken seriously as a web developer if your sites do not follow these standards and pass their validation tools...

There is no secret police outside your door waiting to take your laser. Politicians are not cracking down on laser enthusiasts. Customs could give a crap about lasers. Yes, they are dangerous. Obviously, pointing a laser at your face is just a stupid idea. But trust me, nobody is after your...

If I use my ~250mw red, I can scorch the tobacco inside the end of a cigarette and smell it burning. Not enough to light it though. I refuse to put the cig in my mouth when lighting with a laser, but I imagine with me puffing while lasing, it would light right up.

Red is focusable? Pm sent.

Hey man, umm, I'm on your side. That first paragraph was sarcasm directed at the young-lings here that claim they are more mature then the other 99% of the age bracket. I guess I should have quoted parrot in my response. My comment about subscribing to your newsletter was meant to be a...

So what are you proposing? Should retailers give "maturity level" tests to all potential buyers who cannot provide valid ID? To me, that sounds pretty ridiculous. Until you can come up with a plausible alternative method then age, we will remain with the status quo.  You yourself state that most...

Sounds good. So away with all of the laws. Parents can now say when children can drink. It's now up to parents to say when their kids can drive cars. And parents everywhere get to decide when it's OK for their kids to smoke. Because after all, it's the parents that know when their children are...

I find your ideas intriguing, and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.
