Agreed.

Well I am using 2.6.31-16-generic. My problem is that the flash plugin for firefox tends to cause flickering video. I have updated plugins. Because my graphics card is close to junk I can't really do too much; however, I used to be able to render like 60fps in the Steam engine (source) when I had windows installed, but windows had some serious security issues so I swapped to linux.

Does anyone knowledgeable about Linux distros know which one provides the best video driver support (for mobile platforms)? I use Ubuntu and have had many issues with trying to run anything in 3D or Flash plugins.

I think the problem was that the Mythbusters didn't realize that explosions of that amplitude cause significant shock waves. A poor miscalculation on their part, then again if they were real scientists they would have done an estimate before hand that accounted for such an event. Although it may have been a rare event, Mythbusters seem so often trying to prove things can't happen when in all probability they are possible.
