  1. PC: processor- intel core2duo E6750 2.60 Ghz motherboard- AsRock ConRoe 1333-ESATA2 PSU- Codegen 400W current videocard- Nvidia Geforce 7300 So I recently bought a new graphics card because my old one got fried and have to run on the backup Nvidia 7300(runs just fine with the backup and the late Geforce 8500 GT).However i just cant get the thing to accept the new one.I took the card back to the shop to check if it was dead but it ran fine in the shop.At home I tried all sorts of stuff:reseting BIOS, updating drivers tried on both of the PCIe slots(Yes i did plug in the auxiliary power cable) but to no avail. When i turn on the pc it gives out 5 beeps in a row,and from my time of using it i know that that is its signal that it cant find a video card(I am not entirely sure that is correct). I also tried it on a trendsonic 450W to see if the PSU is the problem,still doesent boot. I personally think it is the motherboard it gave such problems in the past and even got zapped by lightning once,fried its built in lancard so i have to use an external one.
  2. Highly carbonized hydration fluid is what i call it.
  3. So Today I got bored and decided to try out something new,switched on part clipping and started plastering random parts together. The result of this is my first successful stock replica of real world anything,the MIG 25 foxbat. It may fly like a brick with wings but heck it kinda looks cool (that is if you avoid looking into the intakes).

  4. YAY I can finally explain the extremely convoluted story by witch I got mine. So first the MC stands for master craftsman,an allegory to my stride to become a Renaissance man(being proficient in all of the activities in the artistic circle). While steel goes back to my real last name ÖõÃȄÂ÷úþò(Jeliazkov)meaning iron with the slavic naming suffix -ov, and because MC-Iron does not sound especially pleasing I swapped it to its better sounding cousin,steel. And while this alias is heavily charged with my personality and took a bit of thinking to come up with it is also in an unfortunate position that it just sounds like a generic rapper named steel and a name that a 5 year old hoodlum would choose because it sounds "cool".
  5. So I was wondering when we do get the technology to create big sheets of graphene and stack them into a paper thick sheet. How strong will it be? (how strong will it be to pressure along the grain)? What will it look like? (by my understanding it will look somewhat like graphite,as a single sheet gulps up 1.2% of light the needed amount to reach that thickness it will have quite a lot of layers). Will multiple layers better of worse its photovoltiac properties? Also if the sheets slide out of place is a problem will it help if we dope it with metals or other?(And and if we dope it with cobalt will it give it a future-ish blue tinge,:rolleyes:or is that just for the oxide)?
  6. Eh...leave those alone, It will be much better if we make something with channels like Minute physics,Sci-show , PBS Idea channel and other such that put some SCIENCE in their content.
  7. Why do you insist on putting Jeb as the pilot when i specifically put some one else to pilot. Or Why must you make my coolest looking planes handle the worst. Or even refuse to give crucial DeltaV readings and force me to use mechjeb. Why do you even have to do the stupid "root part" dance where I have to rearrange my ships part by part just so i can change the root part. And as you say the staging configurator is utterly retarded,why put the stability enhancers on the last stage. This is pretty much my list of little issues.
  8. It could lay down on its back in a pressurized pod with wheels and Robotic arms and a video screen above its head so it can see the surroundings.Thats my best bet. Alternatively we can place it in a low pressure diving suit (like 1of6billion suggested) but in an aquatic habitat so that the water can offset gravity.
  9. I am kind of surprised no one made a jeb and his beloved boosters joke. But... If this isnt a serious wake up call i dont know what is.
  10. Scott Manley to the rescue! Also you should know that it is a monthly subscription,if you dont already know that is.
  11. Well science was just called science so funds was kind of to be expected.
  12. After a thorough analysis of design all i can say is ... ... Wow.
  13. Guess we humans are not the only being fearing the all dreaded low wi-fi connection then.
  14. We currently have no idea how someones mindset will change if he is 120+.Will they continue to be a quiet elderly figure?or will they suffer a rejuvenation in attitude? Also will the immortality plan take care of preserving full bodily function and aesthetics,will they be look and act like 20 somethings or will they be wrinkled cadavers grounded to a wheel chair?
  15. Well quite frankly we had tractors and they project beams (the headlights) so you are very late with this I feel. Jokes aside i heard about this from sci-show a year back,however i remember it used spiraling particles inside a laser beam but i cant be sure, I dont really remember. They planned to use it with probes to scoop up material from comet tails,among other uses.
  16. So thats our contractor that gives unlimited budget to the space agency,not quite who you would expect. Anyhow cool doodles my favorite is the one on the 2nd post.
  17. Whe could try making some type of breeder cell but thats a whole new suitcase full of headaches on the developers.
  18. So recently (citation needed) they have discovered bacteria that only eats Polyethylene. So what will happen if we release it to the great pacific garbage patch? How well would it spread and at what speed will it devour the plastic? And would there be any adverse effects on the biosphere? Since they cant eat anything else they would be food for other micro organisms is my guess.
  19. I would strongly recommend PC part picker. http://pcpartpicker.com/ There you can build the computer of your dreams while the site automatically detects incompatibilities between the parts you picked,makes everything easy as pie. And you dont really need to worry about assembly it all pops in like lego (sort of). PS- here is my computer i made with a "no weaknesses " philosophy. http://pcpartpicker.com/p/D6VqhM
  20. An absolutely absurd (but usefull) idea I have is making (or gathering) anti-hydrogen and fusing it into anti-ferrum so as to make storage easier. But seeing how we are still unable to do even regular fusion this sounds like a technological power fantasy.
  21. Nuclear is all good but there is a Huge packet of energy right under your seat... Yes people i am talking about geothermal and why no one seems to give a damn about it.
  22. I cant help but smirk at the use of landing legs as propeller fins.
  23. The what?Even if a ball of mater is performing fusion its gravity remains the same because the amount of matter remains the same. (right???) The only thing that will change is the thing will start spewing solar wind that is not that much of a factor.
