I made several animations in a spanish book. The class was really really boring. I still have that book, it is about 8 years old now, but the animations are really worth it. Some are really funny.

At least no one was hurt. I really had no idea the US army was already using robots in battles. I thought we were still about a decade away from such thing. I guess that in a decade or a couple of years less than a decade we are going to be seeing robots controlled by humans just like in the matrix or humans it terran type armor suits ( like the ones in starcraft 2) with heavy armor. I had already heard that there is a suit you can put on to help you lift really heavy things. I guess the army will be having iron man warriors soon, but I doubt we will be seeing robots fighting without human intervention soon.

Well, if you were considering spending $1500 on a Boss BR-1600 Digital Recording Studio package, why not spend a 1/3rd of that and get guitar rig 3? It has awesome guitar effects, it has won many awards besides you get a pedal and audio interface all in one. I think its the best interface you can get for that kind of money. Think about it... the tascam audio interface costs between 150 -200 dollars I believe. add a decent pedal to that and it will end up costing you almost as much as the guitar rig. For recording there are free audio applications such as reaper and audacity. At the beginning they will be complicated but you will get used to them with time and practice. Besides its easier to upgrade a computer studio package than a hardware studio package such as the Boss BR-1600.

Well if you have never played starcraft then I think that is the way to go. Its an RTS classic, one of the best games ever. I just remembered in a different post that it is over a decade old know which I think is amazing, how many decade old games are being played by so many people like starcraft is? I dont know any game like that. Its probably because there are no sequels yet but soon we will have one. The command and conquer and age of empires series are also really good games, I would agree with them being the top 3 rts games/series ever.

Nice, I think that its a good buy for the price. Try searching for coupons, you save a few hundred bucks with them. Dell has lots of promotions and coupons. Quad cores will be introduced in laptops by third quarter this year, which means that you can save a few hundred dollars more when they start using them. So if you dont really need a laptop urgently then I suggest you wait a little bit.

Long live starcraft!! As I was checking this post I just realized that starcraft is over a decade old now and is still one of the best rts games. I thought warcraft 3 was going to take all of its players away but that was not the case, I guess it just wasnt as good as Starcraft. Another advantage that starcraft has is that a whole bunch of computers can run the game with no problems, and for warcraft3 you need an average computer or you will suffer in huge battles because of computer lag.

Ouch 3.1 litres of blood, darn, thats a whole lot of blood, thats what I get for being curious and clicking on the link in your signature. Good luck with your venus fly trap, its my personal favorite plant. -
I would get really tired if I was eating the same thing in an island for a whole year :S, It would most probably stop being my favorite food after this. Well anyway, the winner is: Lasagna!!!! yeah, I love that meal, and no, it does not have anything to do with garfield. I am not really a garfield fan. I just like lasagna because it is awesome.

Ram Cause Crash? after installing new RAM compuer crashs somtimes
FLaKes replied to threepach's topic in Hardware Workshop
Ram is definitely influential in a computer systems performance. If you run a stability test with cheap ram it will most likely not last long and crash your computer. In the case where the computer ram is not compatible (verify that its the correct type, I recommend you google an all about ram search to learn about the types of ram there is) try searching if it is the correct or recommended type of ram. What brand / type / specs does the old ram have? -
Simcountry FREE online sim country country game
FLaKes replied to penny665's topic in Computer Gaming
Wow.... At first I thought that it was going to be another game from the people who make simcity, the sims, etc. But instead it sounds a little more like civilization. I am interested. Is it all made with html? -
Your Favorite Gun In Counter Strike vote and give me a reason
FLaKes replied to l33t_few's topic in Computer Gaming
I agree with bddoan12's reasons. The m4 is the best gun in counterstrike game over all. Anyone can use it, its not too hard. I also like the ak47. Its a really powerfull weapon -
Yes, you can actually upgrade a laptops graphics card, but only if its build with the mxm architecture. That is something that only a couple of new laptops have, it is called the mobile express module. I think it is only available with Nvidia though. If you would like to know if a laptop is mxm compatible just google your laptop's brand and model and add mxm to the end and search. You can also check the following webpage for more info: http://www.mxm-upgrade.com/

I would say that it really depends on where you live, in my case, I live in Mexico. What I have chosen to do was study my bachelor degree here, work a couple of years, travel a little after that while I look for a good place to do a masters degree (I would like to go and live in Europe for 6 months to see If I like it there to stay, work and study, Canada and Australia are also good options that I have in mind). If you like France I would highly recommend that you study in your country at the moment and study a semester abroad like you said.

Caffeine Addiction Is Caffeine Really A Drug?
FLaKes replied to Yuripro84's topic in Health & Fitness
It could be a drug, but using it in excess can definitely be bad for you. I drink coffee because I love the taste, specially capuccino, and because it helps me keep myself active and awake while I am at work. I know the best solution for this would be sleep but sometimes you just cant get enough sleep to stay awake and really active at work. Thats why I think it is a drug, since sometimes you drink it for its effects and not only for its taste. -
Wow it looks really cool, I dont know anyone who wouldnt want to own a toy like that.... guy atleast. It looks really cool. It would be pretty fun to have paintball competitions with vehicles. It would pretty much be like a real war. The next thing to build would be planes I guess, that would be crazy though..

Ahhh, i have been wanting to do that to my w810i but I am sort of scared of doing it :S , what if the phone gets messed up or I end up getting my cellphone credit hacked out or something . On the other hand, it looks really cool, and I could use the camera improvement because it acts strange from time to time. I have seen some videos on youtube of how great the flash menus can look.

I dont think that there is anything wrong with protein milkshakes, they are pure protein, which is really good, and most of them have other nutrients and minerals that will also boost your bodies condition. I also recommend consuming them after workout since I have also heard it is the most optimal time to do so. Just watch out for the ones that have carnitin or something like that, a nutriologist told me that it is bad.
-
Everything in excess is bad, I think its ok as long as you dont eat them every day. Take some breaks from eating eggs, I mean, you can have hotcakes or cereal for breakfast or maybe a ham sandwich.

I think the iphone will be a very good mp3 player. I would really hate to carry a device for every single thing. I would have a camera, a phone and a movie and mp3 player all in one. Its also really slim and you can play lots of games with it, the multitouch technology in it is awesome because you can do all sorts of things. I also plan on using it as a music controller. It looks great too, I know that it is expensive, but if you sum up the price of an mp3 player, a phone and a camera, then you will realize that it is worth it.

Post Rating Module Installed Rate member posts
FLaKes replied to bthaxor's topic in Alerts, News & Announcements
I also think that the rating system is cool. If it is used well by all of us the quality of the posts will improve. The icons look great. Congratulations Xisto!! We will continue to be an evolving community. I wonder what kind of other new features we will have a couple of years from now.. In the meantime, I can definitely see this improving the tutorial posts -
I have a game of magnetic darts in my room... guess it doesnt count does it? I love to play them with my friends

I would not agree with the legend of zelda counting as an rpg, even though in magazines and everywhere it was described as an rpg. I would have to say that it is more like an action / adventure semi platform game. A memorable rpg game for me would be chrono trigger, and after that it would have to be ff7. I never played the first final fantasy games before version 6 though... Earthbound was really fun too.
-
Great, some pictures would be really nice. You know.... it would make it a lot easier for us. Looks delicious.

I was never really good at trick jumping in Quake games, and I never really knew that unreal had it too. All I knew about trick jumping in unreal was with the teleporter. In quake 3 there was a whole bunch of tricks that I didnt know about, not that I didnt care, but I played for fun. No practice at all :S

Hi, did you find about these designer dogs in a yahoo article? I did, I really think its crazy but interesting at the same time. What really interested me the most was the puggle. As soon as I saw the photographs of the dog I really lost the interest. Why? because they are really not as cute as the pug itself. :lol:I definitely agree with you on that, and I dont really care if the pug has breathing problems, when I live by myself I will have to get me a pug, and he will live like a king.
