also. It rolls over when it hits obstacles. 2 wheels in contact at a time, and it rolls over to climb up or down staggered inclines or obstructions.

Here's what I'm thinking. Centre axle, then 3 wheel-axles. At the chassis, there is some sort of an independent chain-gearbox-thing running from a gear on the central axle to each wheel axle. There's probably an independent motor for each wheel, to make sure the drive is stable when on rough terrain... Maybe. - Comment on Australian Dust Storm (2009-09-25 01:58:28)
It's not quiet, unfortunately. However, you can walk around fairly normally if you're ok with breathing in a little dust. You don't die, but you make a lot of phlegm. Also, it is eerily gorgeous. It came on in pretty much a flat wave, first no dust. Then dust. - Comment on dEFCON 17 Badge (2009-08-11 00:05:34)
There's some cool weaponry scenes, but it's actually a really interesting movie. I won't ruin anything, but don't go in expecting your regular sci-fi explosion-fest. - Comment on dEFCON 17 Badge (2009-08-10 22:29:12)
God I love the viral marketing for District 9. Go see it. - Comment on Wedding Upskirt (2009-07-14 06:40:31)
Will nobody think of the children? - Comment on Starry Godzilla Night (2009-07-06 07:55:44)
Does nobody else see the huge godzilla-esque cock in the picture? - Comment on growing a girl (2009-04-25 06:09:35)
@Pants: It is a photomanip. Basically, it is a classy shoop. In the art world, it is referred to as a "Digital Print" - Comment on growing a girl (2009-04-25 03:44:00)
This was done by a high school student in year 12 (american equivalent: high school senior) last year. It's on exhibition in Melbourne, Australia at the National Gallery of Victoria. I am a fountain of knowledge. - Comment on Watchmen: The Game (2009-02-25 21:59:46)
@LukeV1-5: I actually have an e-copy of Watchmen if you'd like it. It can be obtained from here : http://isohunt.com/torrent_details/48114835/watchmen?tab=summary with the relevant bittorrent appliances! - Comment on To Bang Sue (2009-02-25 02:42:43)
the key thing about getting to Bang Sue, is that you have to travel on the MTS all the way to the end of the line to even get close. - Comment on Gissa Drink! (2009-02-22 08:09:57)
A quick note. Sam the Koala wasn't caught in the big bushfire weekend (the one that killed everyone), but was actually injured by controlled backburning about 1 week prior to the major fires that was done to attempt to prevent massive fire damage. Takes the shine off it, hey. - Comment on Fireflower (2009-02-21 04:04:44)
@Phyreblade: People were. They were following disaster plans set down by everyone from the Fire Authority, Government policy and general common sense. Every little T and I was dotted in most cases, but these fires were more extreme and more widespread than could ever have be expected. Arson was/is suspected in many cases, diverting valuable resources from fire locations that Firefighters themselves have admitted that 1000 fire-engines would have been powerless to slow, let alone halt. The firefront that tore through one country town had an internal temperature hot enough to melt glass and aluminium (1723 °C or 3133 F) where government policy is to either leave early, or don't leave and find somewhere cool, and easy to defend. I have been told that someone hid in a small dam, underwater, and the person has scald burns because the radiant head from the firefront BOILED the surface of the dam. One fire front travelled at over 90kph, or 55mph, which caused fleeing cars to overheat, stall, and people be consumed on the ROADS THEY WERE FLEEING ON when a firefront as wide as New York City decided that it wanted to swing south, instead of north. Blergh. For those of us living closeby to all this, it is markedly unpleasant to say the least. - Comment on Good Book (2009-02-20 04:41:18)
@dieAntagonista: Nono, I knew you were a lady. You'd still impregnate me with the level of awesome you would exude in my direction. It would be like a phallic phantasm. Or something. - Comment on Good Book (2009-02-20 00:20:09)
@dieAntagonista: We don't know each other, but I love you so much that if I had a womb I would probably spontaneously procreate if I ever met you. The Torah is effectively the first 5 books of the Christian bible; albeit lucid, rational and logical with few of the holes of the later latin translations from Hebrew (see: Catholicism) and a whole lot more violence and shame.
