Yeah it was pretty epic. There was a picture of an effeminate chinese jesus holding this PSP thing. The PSP also includes a fish scale and a lighter and includes a diesel engine under the hood. Too over-the-top ridiculous to possibly be taken seriously. Too bad the US government somehow has the...

That sounds awfully sketchy to me. For one, it sounds like you're paid to say that. For another thing, I've never heard of this product, and any site I go to find reviews is trying to push it as if they're being paid to. And finally, what the hell does this mean: If your antivirus product can...

Having some pretty bad weather here in Victoria BC, Canada, have a look. It's a chilly 45 degrees out and I think it might rain in a bit. Incidentally, Victoria, Texas is much colder, with a chance of snow.

I think your best bet would be to use an actual laptop LCD then tweak the backlight to make it brighter. You could probably use an MCU to drive the LCD, as well as polling the sensor data, but it might be easier to use an MCU to poll the sensor data, send it to a PC, and have the PC output to...

Hmm. I tried looking it up again but I can't find it. I know there's CSA regulations on selling radiation emitting devices, but as for the actual importing, I can't find where that was illegal. I seem to recall it was actually illegal to have anything over 1mW unless it was used for...

Sorry, I didn't mean to say you're stupid, but that's how you sound online if you can't bother to spell, capitalize, and punctuate correctly. It's hard to read, that's all. Anyways, think about picking up laser goggles. 50mW might not be much, but if you hit a piece of glass and it reflects the...

From what I've read it's illegal, but often unenforced. I've never heard of customs confiscating any lasers at the Canadian border. PS: Learn to spell. If you're too stupid to form a coherent sentence you should not be playing with dangerous toys.

Meanwhile, in Canada... (live webcam feed) Edit: More webcams: 1, 2, 3.. It really is a beautiful day today.

If you live in Victoria and need any laser parts, you can come to the computer store I work at and I can sell you whatever you need for cash. I usually have a bunch of extra red diodes laying around, a couple blu-ray. I have enough parts for a hundred drivers, a dozen or so aixiz modules, some...

Aww man. That's so lame. The department of homeland security shut down This domain name has been seized by ICE - Homeland Security Investigations, the site hosting the ridiculous images. Must have been worried about this incredible technology falling into the wrong hands. Seriously though that...

Wow. What systems do you use that run IRIX? I don't think I've heard IRIX mentioned since I saw Jurassic Park. ("It's a UNIX system!")

Sure thing. PM me your shipping address and I should have those in the mail tonight. No need to pay me. In exchange, just do a random good deed for someone some day. Just to let you know, these are the variable voltage ones, not the fixed 5v or 3v ones, and they're in a TO-252 package. Like this.

This is the gas laser section. Solid state lasers belong in other sections. Specifically, infrared lasers go here: http://laserpointerforums.com/f40/

Long story. You prolly won't read about it for another week or two. It involves an incredibly attractive girl moving in with me, having, err, relations, with said roommate, finding out roommate has a boyfriend, boyfriend getting upset, some awkward drama, me kicking roommate out of house, me...

No, their real price is actually hundreds of dollars each. That's their *REAL PRICE*. If you buy one or ten at a time, they cost hundreds of dollars still. The only reason we can get them for $40 is because Sanyo made tens of millions of them for use in projectors. If you want a million...
