That would have meant someone would have been looking for you.

...nobody was.

They're just not really even trying anymore are they?

So, Waylain was sick, and forgot to record the meeting, but the gist of it is, We're starting up a Rocket League E-sports team, tentatively called Unnamed Gaming. While there are other games, we're using this one to get our feet wet and get the processes and contracts ironed out, so eventually, we ...

Capm

I thought I would bring this to everyones attention. We're working on starting up a new esports team, and there is a public meeting coming up this Saturday if anyone is interested in being a part of it. The meeting will be held on our discord. Here is the news post: http://www.midnightsquadron.com ...

Yea, because the biggest cost of the tower is often getting fiber to the tower, especially in rural areas. Then you have terrain and trees... just picking a good spot for the tower requires some brains, then you have to be able to acquire said spot, then there are zoning and land permits, FCC ...

That handheld splicer is probably $15-19,000 The one I use that sits on a desk and is about 6 inches cube is $10,000 Thats about half what they were 10 years ago, so its coming along. Wireless has some fundamental problems. Those being, to get more bandwidth, you go higher in frequency, which ...

While I think there is more life left in Coax than you think, I essentially agree with you. Most future cable tech is Fiber deep, with the next step beyond docsis 3.1 being fiber to the tap (every tap becomes a node) pushing out 25GHZ down the coax drop (most current cable systems are 750mhz to 1ghz ...

I was actually looking forward to the Orville more than the new Trek. I'm really put off by the restriction to CBS all access bullcrap. Its Voyager and UPN all over again. I'm not saying the new Trek is bad, I don't like the Klingons though, and anytime they mess around with a prequel, they're bound ...

Yellow Garden Spider, there was always a couple of those around the outside of the house in the flowers and stuff when I was a kid. They're pretty neat to watch

Capm

I used to love watching that show.

Capm

Holy Thread resurrection batman!

MS is still the oldest...

Capm

I'll second that. I have every channel there is due to my work, but I watch local stations the most. There is a Tivo over the air box you can get if you want a slick DVR service without building your own. Almost everything other than that is netflix/hulu/amazon etc and other stuff thats available on ...

Capm

nah, they're pretty sturdy, just super glue and some duct tape, and it'll be fine!

Capm

Wow, I'll bet that one was a real b**** to work on! I'll bet the timing on that sucker was very complicated.

Capm

Really, I'm surprised there isn't more innovation in the fuel engine area, I know the piston style engine has been around for a hundred years now, but surely in that time there was a better concept

Capm

I suppose that would help, but I can't help but think you'd eventually have problems with seals - but I could be wrong or maybe I'm just pessimistic. I know the craftsmanship on the engine would be good enough you shouldn't have problems or maybe they found another way around the problem, hard to ...

Capm

Interesting concept, I would think the oil seals would need to be absolutely perfect on the top half and might be prone to problems stemming from containing the oil in what would normally be, upside down. I think a dual piston setup would work better in an upside down V - basically how they sit in a ...

I already downloaded pootermans, but I was thinking along the lines of something where I didn't have to unzip every single file.

Capm

So, I got around to reinstalling D3 last night, and somewhere in the last couple house moves, I've lost the hard drive that contained my old D3 folder. Does anyone have a zip of levels, audio taunts, ship pics and such I could download?

Thanks in advance

Capm

You know, I have a couple theories on this, not entirely in the same catagory, but here they are: 1) Creation vs Evolution - not mutually exclusive. People argue how could the universe be created in six days? Well, if you're an omnipotent being in control of the universe, how do you define time? A ...

Capm

Hmm. I'd buy the company I work for, and fire everyone. No, I wouldn't really fire everyone as much as I would like to, but there would be some big changes. I'd build out rural fiber networks overlaid with a high-speed wireless mesh network for mobile wifi applications in the unserved/poorly served ...

All them old Jeep-style vehicles go just about anywhere because they had to, there weren't always roads on the battlefields.

Capm

If you get a V6, get the biggest one you can, an overworked small v6 will suck as much gas as a big v8, and give you none of the performance, and a big v6 that doesn't have to work hard will end up being more efficient. (usually)

Capm

We've been buying ours from atbatt.com, and have had good results. I'd love to be able to buy local, but out here in BFE we don't get fancy battery stores.

Capm

I've kinda got the opposite problem, I bought a joystick/throttle and haven't really got around to setting it up. Bought it because I've played keys only for 20 years and now my hands cramp up after about 20 minutes of intense flight. My keys setup has been this: Forward: A Reverse: Z AB: Left Shift ...

Capm

This is what you get...

Its probably a giant asteroid field

I've seen that video, here is the safer video:

The other video would have been better if they'd kept the character in shadow the entire time.

Capm

The Descent name is owned by Interplay, but some of the specific assets (like the Pyro-GX, PTMC, and Dravis) are owned by Parallax, which is split between Outrage and Volition. So we have 3 asset holders who don't really play well together. The easiest way to get around that is to make a prequel ...

Capm

Personally, I think prequels are over-rated, I'd much rather have them pick up the story at some point after D3.

Capm

for that matter, anything to dress up the interface so its not so... stock, I don't know if there is anything worth messing with out there anymore

Capm

I've been running these Ecliz cursors for quite a while, and was looking for something newer,

any recommendations?

This is just an odd problem, it happens on different routers, different devices, different places, busy RF Spectrum and no other networks present... the only common denominator is the wireless N. Any time I move the wireless card, or the router into G only mode, it picks up and works. Changing ...

Capm

Yea, its across different brands of devices. Kinda makes me wonder if its something to do with the broadcom chipset and windows/android

Capm

Not that I could find. The date on the driver is June of 2013.

Capm

Over the last several months, I've run into an inexplicable phenomena of things just deciding to stop connecting to Wireless N. It seems to happen most on Windows 8, but I've seen it happen on Windows 7 as well. One of two things will happen, either it will not connect at all, or it will connect and ...

Capm

Speaking of pronunciation fails...

Capm

Duper, that is funny that we both ran into it so close together! :P I can't believe they're having such large concerts - that blows my mind - its definitely not just some niche thing in Japan, its all over. I would think that if it is pre-rendered, they wouldn't be too far behind with live motion ...

Capm

Vocaloid? I stumbled onto this the other day, what is your opinion of this?
