I got my new camera today. I am so freaking excited t o start capturing the textures around me. Here is my first texture sample from about twelve feet away. Mind you this is compressed for the web and shrunk down. Still you can see that the image quality is really great.

I agree with you 100%. As long as the company is not making the technology adjustments because they are "going under" and need to drop employees to survive, then why can't technology benefit both the worker and the company. Its almost like doing good means laying off all of your workers and having an electronic workforce, save several mechanics, electricians, and programmers.

Sometimes its probably easier to work with robots. I often dream about how uniform it would be to teach robots by giving them code, instead of students by giving them words. Especially if the robots were all the same make and model.

I am 100% Italian and I think I must have inherited my morals and manners from the mafia. Okay that's not all true but, I am very vendictive, which is both a character flaw and advantage for me sometimes.

In this case it was mostly a problem with her not being local. My inital intention was to have a local forum with people who were in some ways affected by (e:Strip). Everyone here has either lived off Elmwood, lived in Buffalo, or is closely related to someone or something that does reside here.

I never wanted to start a live journal site. I agree that there could be better approaches but when someone messes with my friends its makes me really angry. Sometimes I get crazy. One time I threatend to burn down a hotel and the police had to come.

It would be great to do a commercial/cartoon for the site. Maybe we could re-inact this drama and have multiple endings that the user can pick.

So after finishing the cam I decided to continue cutting out ransom note letters for my automated ransom note writer. Here is the

Simply type the note and print. No finger prints added. I figured this oculd be necessary at some point.

None of the wirefusion stuff made it to the site. I had prised him a class of 14's worth and then only about 5 turned out good. I will make a place to post them here soon.

As for the 64 bit processor. As far as I know none of the software you use has been upgraded to take advantage of those processors.

Here is a to the benchmark pages for the opteron from AMD. If you get one go with the AMD opeteron. You can find such things here at zipzoomfly

I would stick with a dual xeon P4 for now. Or maybe go for the 64bit and hope the software take advantage of it. I think you would be best putting the additional money into ram.

The candle and dish was made using Cinema 4D. I have the file still if you want to check it out sometime. It seems to take forever to render.
