#41751 Zombie Apocalypse
Posted by Dr. Strangelove on 08 February 2013 - 09:43 AM in Fantasy
Possibly Helpful Tips: don't drink tapwater, zombies may have tainted the source where it comes from, but if its from your rainwater tank it should be fine (I would boil in case the infection is airborne). Don't go out alone, at least have someone watching or within communication boundaries. Don't get eaten, or try not to. If you get separated from your group, or are just ridin' solo, be careful! Watch where you go, zombies have poor eyesight (from what I've gathered), so they would rely heavily on senses like touch (vibrations), smell (fresh flesh smells gewd to the zombie) and also hearing (so be shh). Remember, hunting and fishing skills = useful knowledge, in case you need to forage or get food from mother nature to survive.
Well, that's my thoughts anyway. I don't know if us Aussies will even be hit with an infection, but you never know... if we do I don't plan on staying at the house for long, I aim for staying at least 2 months max into the zombie 'revolution' so it can die (lol) down, grab the ute, supplies, and then head north west. Lot's of bush pretty much all over the east coast, not sure about y'all in the USA. But anyway that's what I'd do! Or grab a nice lookin' yacht from the yacht club down the road and head to sea, but aanyway... I love getting onto zombie survival topics! Even though I know one won't happen I want to be somewhat prepared Tell me your opinions etc, what you would change or whatnot as well!
*Shload = shit load.

Yeah I finished TCoM a while ago, devoured The Hunger Games trilogy in a week, and now juggling The Light Fantastic and The Lord of The Rings for the 2nd time in my life (the new film got me back in the mood ). Pratchett's books are quirky and unique but I think they're a great read! I think it's his style of writing that hooked me hahaI've just started reading through the Discworld novels myself. I'm about halfway through The Colour of Magic.

#46380 Inside a nuclear reactor
Posted by Dr. Strangelove on 03 April 2013 - 01:03 AM in Nerd Art
Yeah, I thought so too.
I need a pool with fancy glowing blue things at the bottom with a switch so I can make them glow red while people are in it and set off an alarm. >.>
Then deploy dry ice or something through little pumps in the walls of the pool, with bubbles of course, and have fake human limbs float to the top. Oh the fun one could have...

#41910 Dr who
Posted by Dr. Strangelove on 09 February 2013 - 06:05 AM in Misc. Movies and T.V.
First episode I watched was when I was about 3 or 4, it was black and white with horrifically awful yet somehow great stop motion animation of dinosaurs walking through London, that's all I remember... BUUT nevertheless I love Doctor !DOCTOR NOT DR! Who. It's a classic BBC show and it will never die.. it'll regenerate.
TARDIS = Time And Relative Dimension In Space. Good to see some other Whovians!
#46438 D.I.Y Satellite, or harvesting the Moon?
Posted by Dr. Strangelove on 03 April 2013 - 06:12 PM in DIY
You're not going to believe this... we had a massive downpour yesterday, from around 6am to 4pm and then on and off through the night, and guess who left their window which was next to his stack of sketchbooks open....
Most of my best sketches, designs/diagrams (not just for amateur rockets), fan-fictions - basically a LOT of stuff I've deicated time to on paper has effectively been destroyed Sign of the gods? Just kidding, but in all seriousness I've set them up to dry so hopefully they'll revive, but when I get home (I'm writing from class) I should have some simple designs hanging around that I can put pictures of up, although their the ones lacking detail and the "science behind it" stuff (which the others are chock a block full of).
And great clip Sushi And Ratmastah I have seen SkyCube somewhere before and I just love their ideas, and it gave me some ideas also
#46387 D.I.Y Satellite, or harvesting the Moon?
Posted by Dr. Strangelove on 03 April 2013 - 02:30 AM in DIY
Honestly I had no idea what forum to post this under, so here goes!
As naive as it might sound; as far back as I can remember, I have always wanted to design, build, program, and launch a satellite/rocket into space! It's purpose? To say I did it.
Back in 2002 we were learning about the Apollo missions, in kindy or year 1. We learnt how they did it, the technology, and the plans they had for space, and some were definitely far-fetched. But it was more than that, I was incredibly amased about how they did it, and seeing Saturn V soar into the sky at an unimaginable speed, people floating freely, and photos of alien worlds completely tickled my fancy.
So for the past year or 2 I've drawn silly sketches designs and concepts of all sorts of rocket-like contraptions that I would love to have launched, much inspired by Planetes and some other films like Moon, but hello, Tyler, moron, you can't just shoot a rocket up into orbit like that... or can you?
SO fellow nerds, geeks and D.I.Y enthusiasts my question is how would an average Joe like me or you go about doing it? Launching something you made, into space, or a neighbouring planet, and why?
If you're interested I can explain, or show a diagram of my designs for various rocket concepts, although in saying that please don't troll, or judge!
Hope to hear from y'all!
#46383 Anyone know much about servos?
Posted by Dr. Strangelove on 03 April 2013 - 01:45 AM in DIY
This is probably way off what you guys are talking about, but may as well give it a shot.
I've looked into various 'hexapod' designs before and these I found are quite attractive. I would say if you used light materials (balsa wood for example) with el cheapo servos first as a test (as to not strain the petit servos too much, and see their limits), persay, then you could progress to heavy duty expensive stuff as the funds increased.

(Instructables for those who dont already know about it, is a magnificent website)

These are a few, as far as I know they're not as expensive as the $1200 beast of a critter, but they do a good job.
