I owned several Iomega products, and they had the worst product life cycle. Some of its driver's products never survived one OS upgrade.

The problem isn't their products were cheap, they simply didn't care about the consumer. At one point customers had to stop buying their stuff.

You know Europe? I bought mine there.

Because the terror theatre is based on conductivism. You behave bad, they treat you bad.

I travel a couple of times every year to the U.S. Every year I can see changes in their behaviour, even they seem erratic or random. The last couple of years I''ve felt like the TSA agents are more loose and even smile and talk a like with passengers, but passengers are similarily tamed since 2001. Of course this is my perception, not a scientific research.

I guess your comment is the variant of "haven't read the article, just the summary".

The script is very well done in terms of human relationships and interactions. It's not a movie about fart jokes, the characters are fairly complex (for an animated movie). It is worth to watch it before forming any opinion.

Blender interface is pretty configurable. There's a chance to change the shortcuts to something more standard, like a BlendMax or BlendMaya UI setup. It just requires someone to put some work on this (I know, it takes somone else time).

Daniel Martinez started something with his maxmaya interface:

Lots of nice new little features!

My kids go to the kindergarten, and they (boys and girls) go to the same bathroom, with no doors. They don't have these kind of problems. The problem is when you grow up and aquire fears.

I've extensive use of both programs, me and my staff. A couple of years ago took the decision to use mostly open source software for our own financed films wenver is possible. After a few months everybody switched GIMp for photoshop. It takes a few more steps to do a task with GIMP , Curent photoshop versions look bloated but you can work with it. While working with GIMP is slower experience.

I simply couldn't finish to read the text. Text over images, images over text. Two columns, no visible contuinity. No thanks.

My wife had a stomach reduction procedure a year ago. Before that she had to follow a strict psicological therapy for a year to be approved for the procedure, this is not required but that's how her doctor works.

She had several options, and the advice from her doctor was to choose any of the couple of reducing stomach interventions. All the other options which include putting some kind of contraption into the stomach fail in a big percentage of the patients. This happens because patients learn to control the comtraptions, air balloons, etc. and end tricking them to eat more.

The length of one of the elements is innecesarily longer than the final crack length. I bet it's a nighmare to pedal thru irregular terrain, collisioning with the ground every second.

Not everybody has what it takes to make a successful business. And starting a company because you can't find a job won't help. If you can't find a job, hardly you will find clients.

Actually, Stan Leed didn't give proper credit to artists for decades. He was forced to do it Just remember Jack Kirby and Mr Lee conflict.

While the machine is ugly, expensive and underpowered, it's an interesting hack. The guy had to figure how to connect all the parts that came from differents sources, not aa a DIY computer kit. He even had to deal with some basic electronics to use one energy imput (laptop battery) to feed several parts with different voltage requirements. He even call this a protoype. And that's what this frankentop is, a fun prototype to do. Thanks for sharing it!

I miss the times when one visited a radio shack store and buy some parts to create an interesting hack. Now everything is about pre-designed arduino kits.

Blender is a blend of tools: modeling, animation, rendering, video compositing, game engine, and video editor.
