About 35 fps on 1.7GHz P4 with 1GB RAM, but while loaded heavily -- only about 150 MB RAM free, and CPU about 70% burdened.

That's OK, Josh, go right on insisting that they're all Men of Good Will, with no axes to grind or huge vested interests and financial stakes to protect. We'll understand.

Here's some interesting info on how the principals conspired to shape the debate via RealClimate.org: http://canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/17635 Michael Mann: We can hold comments up in the queue and contact you about whether or not you think they should be screened through or not, and if so...

The math and physics of the models is laughable, like making wind-tunnel models of jet planes out of TinkerToys. http://arxiv.org/pdf/0707.1161v4 In case of partial differential equations more than the equations themselves the boundary conditions determine the solutions. There are so many different ...

...Every single tribal society is vastly inferior to us in virtually every way... - right on mein fuhrer! but wait, are you claiming that science itself isn't tribal? that cant be right! I'm not sure what you're on about re Hitler. We were discussing the relative proficiency in medical science of h...

Many of the problems of Western medicine have to do with congealed regimens and their rationalizations. My father had ulcers from his early 40s on, and had the Vagus nerve connection to the stomach severed, and numerous dietary restrictions, and medicines and antacids up the kazoo for the rest of hi...

Luzr; 3% of 100,000 is 3,000, not 300. Really. If you remove gunshot and auto deaths from the numbers, the US has the highest life expectancy in the world, even over supposed leaders like Japan and France. (The current real frontier is anti-senescence, which is the mantra of SENS.org , lead by Aubre...

Decaborane (B10H14) is solid up to 100°C, boils at 213°C. That's what's being planned for Focus Fusion, and safety control isn't expected to be much of a problem; it's only a gas while in the (small, sealed, vacuum) plasma chamber. Not sure what the fate of the extra 4 Hs will be, though! :) Doesn'...

I shouldn’t even reply here, but here goes. If +g slows time, then it makes sense that –g speed up time. If dark matter is –g, could we have a problem seeing dark matter simply because it is somehow time shifted out of our matter timed space? Since the essence of the case for detection and definiti...

I know we've had this discussion else where. However, focus fusion is much more speculative than IEC polywell or John Slough's FRC concepts. Pushing forward. Here are the new news feeds and images of the research rig just completed: http://focusfusion.org/index.php/site/article/test_shots_attempted...

What do you mean cosmology, Helius? I'm afraid I'm not yet as up to speed on these things as I'd like. As for Tajmar's experiment, I was thinking of something along those lines for artificial gravity technobabble. Gravity is a property of matter, due to it's {its} mass. If mass and energy are inter...

Here's an image: http://i246.photobucket.com/albums/gg111/Torulf2/Space-DPF1.jpg suggested by research like this: http://www.stormingmedia.us/37/3796/A379644.html Abstract: The objective of this study was to perform a parametric evaluation of the performance and interface characteristics of a dense ...

Tajmar at the ESA found a gravitational force from a spinning disk. The effect was many orders of magnitude greater than relativity predicts. http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2006/03/060325232140.htm That's the only induced gravitational effect I've seen. Maybe we'll learn something from LHC, t...

Clever Sillies - Why the high IQ lack common sense The results of cognitive stratification and IQ-advertising are therefore bad enough to have destroyed the value of whole domains of the arts and academia, and in the domain of public policy the results have been simply disastrous. Over the past fou...
