| | i remember doing some math with my dad at a sushi restaurant one night, and we concluded that memory has become either a billion times cheaper, or a trillion times, i don't remember which, in the last 20 years. it should be pretty close to that, what with that 18th month rule thing, expanded over 20 years. thats a lot of doublings and halvings. |

I think its pretty cheesy when you see old movies where they simply fast-forward the footage to make it look like a person is runnuing really fast or something. The sad thing is that they sometimes still use it today!!! Its terrible!!!!!! Ive seen about three movies lately that were abosolutely APPALING. I think one was called "infested" (about flies that enter your body and turn you into a zombie), One was about a plague of infested rats or something (dont remember the name) and one was about an airport terminal that is being overtaken by aliens. All the movies are really low-budget with terrible computer-generated effects and appaling story-lines. All three movies are about a small group of people trying to beat the enemy and in the end, there is a scene where a few rasts crawl out of a hole or one alienm survives or some flies survive. As if anyone is going to make a sequal to these movies!!!! These movies went straight to Fox-tel (Australian cable tv) skipping the cinema and probably ideo/DVD too.

QUOTE(redsox58 @ Feb 22 2005, 08:43 PM) They are kinda cool-looking imo.
Recently movies have become way to reliant on computer-genereated effects.. They lack story-line, plots, and dialouge, all of which they try to compensate with special effects.. American movies especially

I think I have the worlds oldest gaming console here somewhere. It had two controllers that consisted of a stick and a button hardwired to the console, it had a cartridge a bit like a Super Nintendo, but that was also hardwired into the console (i.e. that was the only one you could ever use!!). And, one of the few games on that cartridge was pong. I'll see if can find it and post a pic.

Fingerprinting Technology
Using fingerprints as credit cards (16) I've been wondering when we are going to see the little consumer fingerprint pads hooked up to
cash registers all over the country in all types of stores...grocery stores....clothing
stores.....gas stations... Instead of using the swipe pads or machines for our credit cards, why
can't we just use our fingerprints instead? ... In a time of so much identity theft and fraud,
wouldn't buying goods or services with just your fingerprint, be the better way and more secure
way to go? I remember bringing up this topic with an actor friend of mine last year, and rig....
