[quote who="JuleTron" reply="5" id="2313732"]The brain works nothing like a computer and is the most complex structure in the known universe. No one has the slightest concept of how it works. [/quote] I don't know if you've ever even taken a basic psychology class but our brains do work a lot like computers in at least one respect. It's built of a ton of transistors! Your neurons are binary, either they fire or they don't. Another thing we know about that is

I don't know how common the strategy is, but I once played starcraft against a zerg guy who made nothing but guardians and overlords. I couldn't kill the guardians because I couldn't target them through the mass flood of overlords.

Yeah, either way I have to find the dissassembly manual to get at those bios batteries. What I really need to knkow is which are the keyboard screws on my model. My intent is to clean the sticky patches with distilled water and cotton swabs. I'm optimistic, because I haven't been able to smell ozone on it, so I don't think anything got torched.

[quote who="ZehDon" reply="2" id="2312432"] Final Fantasy VII: Breeding chocobos. This is one of the more mundane tasks I've ever had to complete in a video game, and I can't see how anyone actually enjoyed doing it. I don't know who thought this would be a wise distraction, however they were so very, very wrong. [/quote] Really? I guess I must confuse you because I love raising chocobos.

there's no such thing as an evolutionist. and a creationist is by definition not a scientist.. Although I am legend was completely destroyed in the translation to film. Will Smith was supposed to have been the monster himself and put on trial by the monsters he was hunting for murder. Alternate ending was a little better than the one they used in the movie, though.

Why would someone make a movie about this? That would be like making a movie about the Obama Birth Certificate crap.

So this is an article I came across while reading comments on a Detroit Lions blog. I was looking for some discussion of the subject matter here. Some highlights..... When underdogs choose not to play by Goliath’s rules, they win, Arreguín-Toft concluded, “even when everything we think we know about power says they shouldn’t.” The eighteenth-century general Maurice de Saxe famously said that the art of war was about legs,

My post must have vanished! I had suggested that the method of battle is that the computers through polygons and particle effects etc.. at each other. Each computer then has to render everything it gets thrown at it. This means that computers without enough video-power *Like my term?* would have to devote fewer resources to attcking the other computers. Also, it's a goood way to model attacking and defending.

[quote who="psychoak" reply="9" id="2308586"]If you're really dense, you start with a thousand plus character regular expression that populates a forty gig database by parsing infrastructure inspection entries using hundreds of different recording methods from all the small companies the major multi-national corporation has absorbed over the years. It took me several hours to figure out what it was doing. [/quote] YIKES!

I myself could make 300 sword varieties using Paint program. all i need to do is to make pre-made components like cross guards, hilts, pommels and blade types. heck i could make several different varients of Rapiers alone.

I don't know about that Night's Edge. I really like the textbooks from the courses I've taken. getting an intro C++ book and going through it from start to finish seems like a good idea to me.
