    Undergrad Researching the Potential of Nano Batteries: Seeking Forum Insight

    Hope this is the correct forum for this... :rolleyes: I ran across this today. I've begun researching what companies are doing to replace our current dry cell batteries used in electronic devices. This is the first reference I've seen of a so called nano battery. Anyone with experience here...

    Is It Possible to Boost Your IQ with These Simple Tips?

    Dude, take a step back and read the paragraph you wrote. Someone who isn't intelligent and considers themselves dumb would not understand this string of words, much less WRITE it! Don't be so hard on yourself, it takes at least average intelligence just to understand topics on this site. :smile:

    Is It Possible to Boost Your IQ with These Simple Tips?

    All computers using TCP/IP (the Internet) have what is called a loopback address, 127.0.0.1. So posting your IP publically as 127.0.0.1 and then someone trying to run some destructive code against your IP address (as some people on IRC like doing) results in them running the destructive code...

    That's funny as hell! :smile: :smile: All these years dealing with security and I am kicking myself for not thinking of that one!

    Is It Possible to Boost Your IQ with These Simple Tips?

    Is there some significance to the score 136? I've noticed with quite a few people they always seem to score 136 on those online IQ tests. I find that kind of strange... almost like it is rigged to give that answer.

    Is It Possible to Boost Your IQ with These Simple Tips?

    That's another thing, does the IQ score of a 9 or 10 year old actually mean anything? If they test high at that age is it an indicator that they would also score high as an adult?

    Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy - Reviewed - Bad -Real bad.

    Yeah. Now that I've seen it I have to go re-read the book because the movie confused my memory of the story. I KNEW I should have just played video games at the arcade for those 2 hours I was waiting for my truck...

    Why doesn't my # of Posts change?

    Thanks - that makes sense. I do much more passive reading in the other areas.

    Why doesn't my # of Posts change?

    I've been stuck at 38 posts for a while now even though I've posted way more than that here. Maybe it's the count of how many threads started? But I know I haven't started 38 threads either...

    Is It Possible to Boost Your IQ with These Simple Tips?

    I smell troll so I won't even bother going into this one, being a white kid raised by a Chinese father and all... I always wanted my IQ tested in my early 20s and after taking a few (both real and online) came to the conclusion that these tests really do test one thing, how good you are at...

    Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy - Reviewed - Bad -Real bad.

    Yeah so it's been a month since it came out and I was finally bored with $6 in my pocket with a few hours to kill right next to a theatre. That's what it took to get me in there. Unimpressed. Zooey is a good Trillian, Alan Rikman is a good Marvin - although Marvin looks really stupid, who ever...

    SUN Project Looking Glass: Amazing 3D Desktop

    I'd assume you have to save it - maybe it saves the note and webpage as a type of bookmark? It is going to function on both Solaris AND LINUX, so I'll actually get to use it since I don't like SUN workstations :smile: It looks like the open source code is actually available now but I doubt...
