Considering I still have the footage I shot from the Sister Psyche/Manticore wedding, I could probably whip up a pretty good video of the love triangle that is Statesman-Faultline-Fusionette...

Quote:When it's ready will you yell from the kitchen "Ham-a-done!"?Originally Posted by Riverdancer
I need to rant, here goes: Math is going to ruin my New Year's Dinner.
So, I have this ham for dinner today. As I go about starting to get ready to put it in the oven, I read the instructions. 'Bake at 325F for 14-19 min per pound.' Ok. No problem... The tag on the outside of the ham says something to the effect of '$5.99/kg, total cost: $28.56.' Ok. I just have to divide the total cost by the price /kg to get the weight in kg, then multiply it by 2.2 to get the weight in pounds, then divide by 14 to get the time to cook it.. oh, that ends up in total minutes, and my oven bakes by hour increments. *BAMF!* My head asploded.
That is too much math to do when you're 1) hungry, 2) worried you're going to ruin a ham, and 3) not friends with math.

It's a robot that shoots beer, all controled by your iPhone! Who cares about video chat?
Beer Robot With Air Cannon
Quote:When writing about Ryans beer-firing robot, its hard not to agree with YouTube commenter pyookfaces opinion: Greatest. Invention. Ever.
The kegerator is controlled by an iPhone via the ioBridge IO-204, a physical I/O board which connects web services, and can therefore be controlled by a mobile device. The first screen gives you a choice of four types of beer and lets you control the temperature. Hit the switch and a can drops into the torpedo bay.
Once your Bud Light is locked and loaded, the real fun starts. The robot switches to webcam-view, which you can see live on the iPhones screen. Buttons let you swivel the whole kegerator left and right. Press fire and a 50psi hydraulic canon launches the can at the lazy frat-boy who ordered it.
Amazing. It even auto-tweets video captured from its web cam.
As befits such a dorm-room project, Ryan worked with friends to build it. Graham Phero built the air-cannon, and Josh Lilly took care of web and graphic development. Whatevs. This is a robot, that launches beer!
V2 is in alcohol-inhibited progress. There will be cross hairs on the remote-cam images to help aiming, as well as a timer after Ryan smashed a lamp with a PBR last night.
And as if this wasnt enough of a Christmas miracle, theres actually a smart comment on the YouTube page. Here it is, from Nicholson7777 (who also suggested the timer and cross-hairs):
Your invention justifies all the money ever spent on advancing technology to this point. Im am writing you in as a Nobel candidate.
Agreed. I think Wired.coms own Beer Robot has just fallen in love.

Ok. . .I got a card that came opened today.
The card has no return address, and it was not signed. 
The postmark is from New York City. The card does have 7 adorable puppies in Santa Hats on the front.
So Mr./Ms./Unsure Mysterious Card Sender "Thank You."
-
Yes We do! Happy Birthday!
-
I take it as no date is given that this is happening today?
-
Merry Birthday Froggy!
-
Merry Christmas all.
I guess Hami's present is not to get his butt kicked today?
-
I got Vyx's, WoodNimph's (and all cookies in good shape), JJ's and Sooner's.
-
Humm I think I've broken about as many of these Commandments, as I have the ones "main Tank Moses" brought down.
-
Happy belated Brithday!

No matter how hard I try, I just can not quit playing with my CoX.

Red Caps - They are such a pain, that it feels so good be beat them down.
Trantula Mistresses and the Fortunas: the ones with the Psi attacks. With no Psi resistance these are always a challenge so it makes for a good fight. -
Happy Birthday!

I got Kid and Nomme's card, thanks. And a strange little box post marked from VA. Thanks G.A. When I opened the box there was snow inside! Or at least I think it was snow. It was white and powdery, so it must be snow right?
Do you think I should go to the hopistal? -
Got my first ever card from New Zealand!
Ok so it may have been printed and mailed from the US. But the digital 0's and 1's came from there!
I still have more cards to mail out. -

Ok I'm going to have to go shopping.

I can still help out with this on Ny. (I still have the mission. And from what I hear the arc gets a bit more tricky.) But I haven't been in game as much. Hopefully I can get some quality time in this weekend.

You are at your best with a teammate running Assualt, Maneuvers, and Tactics.

A tie for first arrived! I got Tiggy's and the Stalemate/Cassie cards today!

Okay, my defender did the first mission you can't die in even if you are stupid.
But, the second one just killed me on my empath. Repeatedly. With great vigor and awesome faceplants.
So.
I have a tank or two, and will want to get the Alpha on at least one (if not both), so I am offering services.
I'll tank your defender/controller/etc if someone will tank/scrap my defender.
Drop me a tell Saturday @Janlee between 1:00 PM and 5:00 PM (Central).
LOL Jan.
You do know that mission number 2 is just talk to Statesman in I.P.?
I know your a member of Team Debt Cap but man that is bad if your lvl 50 is faceplanting in I.P. he he he
Anyway I am at the find Trapdoor mission on Nylonus, so I can help out. -

Except for Tricky, right?
However due to someone's post above.
They can expect an extra special card!
