Drug trafficking is obviously deadly serious and well-paying business. I'd hate to see one of them coming up the road. Look at the damn battering ram at the front =\

They need to take it to the Mad Max 4 set when it starts filming and let it be in the movie.

You've got a long drive ahead of you. Hope you can afford to pay for the fuel because I'm pretty sure the steel plate doesn't improve the economy icon_wink.gif

BurnZ: Yeah it'd fit right in with Mad Max =)

Man arrested.
Blood tests show 0 booze, medication for cerebal palsy.
Prosecutor pushes forward with case anyway, tried to get him to pleade guilty.

Because... I don't know he hates cerebal palsy victims or something?

Aussie dude built a hoverbike!

Quote:
With a 1170 cc 4-stroke engine delivering 80 kW driving two ducted propellers, the inventor of the Hoverbike, Chris Malloy, says with its high thrust to weight ratio, the Hoverbike should be able to reach an estimated height of more than 10,000 feet and reach an indicated airspeed of 150 knots (278 km/h or 173 mph). At the moment these are only theoretical figures as the Hoverbike hasn't been put through its paces yet, but Malloy has constructed a prototype Hoverbike and plans to conduct real world flight tests in a couple of months.





And here's his homepage for it

This video clearly demonstrates why I really want DX11 to get more support.



Wow.

Large Twin of Hadron Collider.

In the late 1980s, the Soviets attempted to build their own CERN-like particle accelerator. It was never finished, but the abandoned remains are still there to be explored by the always interesting English Russia.

You'll be waiting a while given that the guy says it needs GTX 580s in SLI to make just that one alien happen. That's over $1000 in graphics cards to render one character.

I have one GTX 570 and it runs the same demo fine. You can download it on the nVidia website.

No one was injured, amazingly.

Later in the evening, a second Audi also crashed spectacularly:



The safety car was out for almost two hours while they rebuilt an entire section of the safety barrier.

Cool. I'd download it but I suspect it doesn't run on AMD cards. Edit: it says I need a GPU upgrade - guess my Radeon 5850 is old hat now icon_wink.gif

And why did you neg that Thunder? He did say that at the end of the video.

Is it the download or program boot that says your card is old? Because if it wont download I'm sure you can find an external source with the software hosted.

Otherwise look up and download the Unigine Heaven benchmark for a tessellated orgasm. Should work for all DX11 compliant cards.

AS emergency workers continue the struggle to contain overheating nuclear reactors, a group of Japanese pensioners has volunteered to risk their lives to rebuild the cooling system in the Fukushima power plant.
Quote:
"Our generation, who has, consciously or unconsciously, approved the construction of the Fukushima nuclear power plants and enjoyed the benefits of the vast supply of electricity . . . should be the first to join the Skilled Veteran Corps, Young people with a long future should not have to be placed in a position of having to undertake such a task. Radiation exposure of the generation that will reproduce the next generation should be avoided.

It's clear that human activity is essential. The place is contaminated and the radiation is very strong. It's reasonable that older people should have priority in working in the plant."
