[quote who="Scoutdog" reply="23" id="2296234"]Good tip. I assume you tried the lightbulb-in-pool-of-water trick? Also, according to the Mythbusters, the best sparks come from two sheets of accordion-folded aluminum foil about 2cm. apart..... or a CD. [/quote] Multilayer DvD disks are pretty cool.. Perhaps a Blue-ray disk..

I have not had that happen when renting cars or rooms. I don't know where you got that Idea from. In all hotels (here in Australia anyway) they get your credit card details and put a hold on some money (usually $200-500, depending on how nice it is) incase you damage any of the

Videogames are the biggest reason I was excited that Joe Lieberman lost in the primaries in '06, only to have my heart crushed when he still won under the "Connecticut for Lieberman" party... His annual round-up of shame irks me whenever I see it on CSPAN..

[quote who="GW Swicord" reply="15" id="2294683"]On the microwave digression, one of my uncles spent a large part of his career in whatever federal lab was responsible for testing microwave oven safety back in the days when they were new on the consumer market. Visiting his lab was the first time I was ever in one of those funky, foam-pylon-padded damper rooms and the first time I saw an infrared camera in action (maybe 1974?). For several years around this time, my uncle made a hab

[quote who="psychoravin" reply="12" id="2293715"]Anyone remember or ever played Daggerfall? You could CREATE YOUR OWN SPELLS and the power of those spells in that game. One of the many things I loved about Daggerfall. It is one of the most open ended and largest rpg/fantasy games ever made. I could go for something like that in Elemental instead of canned linear spell lines that are the same every game. I think it had one of the best if not the best spell systems in any game I ever played. Yo

[quote who="landisaurus" reply="1" id="2293234"]I'm pretty sure mods are covered under the "fair-use" provided nobody directly profits from it. So the people who made the game that was modded can't directly endorse the creation of the mod, making it seem like they want to gain sales as a direct result of the mod. [/quote] It's more like in the "We won't bother coming at your for making a tribute to our characters" but fir use really just covers the ability to ta

[quote who="pigeonpigeon" reply="7" id="2293205"]No, it was a complete accident while screwing around with magnetrons Ah, so you're right, but you're still wrong where it matters. This Percy Spencer fellow was testing a magnetron developed to be used on radars; testing it to verify that it functioned as expected. He was in no way trying to figure out what other esoteric uses microwaves have - he was building and testing magnetrons for a very specific purpose, and happened to notice

[quote who="Leo in WI" reply="24" id="2292429"] I kind of agree, but the microwave oven was more of an accidental product than a tech. They were researching microwaves and found out what else they do, not researching microwaves and then discovered integrated circuits.
