  1. while I suppose it's not too bad if your source file is encoded at a pretty high bit-rate, but as a general rule, cross-coding makes baby jesus cry. My recommendation would be to "re-rip the cd" directly to the format you want.
  2. but only cause the pilot was chasing it, otherwise that's six counts of high-altitude party foul right there. The funniest things I've seen go out the door have all been really really badly funneled exits.
  3. I don't know about the original post, but I enjoyed the short discourse on the first page between Tonto and usskydiver considering their avatars...

    Trig. Help

    If you have a ratio of rational functions, and the denominator goes to zero, the function goes to infinity and is called "undefined." If you have a ratio of rational functions, and both the numerator and denominator go to zero, then the function goes to 0/0 and is called "indeterminate" I this case, the former can't happen, w->0 iff x->0 using L'Hopital's Rule you can find the limit of the whole thing as y or z goes to zero which is, as rehmwa pointed out, still 3/2.

    "Let w and x be two sides of a triangle..." there, happy?

    hey cool, a problem I can solve... you want to know w/x, you are given w and you are given x, lump them together as a big fraction, and cancel any like terms in the numerator and the denominator. When you do this you are essentially multiplying the whole thing by 1, so you're not changing its value. /eta: If you want to be a smart ass you can point out w/x doesn't equal 1.5 when z or y is 0
  8. Thinkgeek rules. I love the "Obey Gravity it's the Law" it's perfect for skydiving geeks. I just ordered a "Jesus is f'ing METAL" t-shirt yesterday.
  9. the guy who made them for Shannon now sells them on his own, His name is Art something or other. Anyway, you can buy them online
  10. I pressed the button, the sphere opened, and a little yellow guy came out and give me the finger. I guess it's just one of those days...
  11. Being left-handed is a choice. And satan makes people choose it.
  12. hey, be happy, it could be a C-5.
  13. I have a whole box of jumbo sharpies. I was explaining something to someone at work Monday (which requires a whiteboard cause I'm an engineer) and the marker I picked up must have been brand new cause it was strong as hell. About half way through my explaination I forgot what it was I was even talking about cause I couldn't breathe. Let's be honest, we all know what business Sanford is really in.
  14. now you're crossing over into my last poll
  15. Well according to the poll results, all I have to do is smile and I'll be fine.
  16. well, is it on the list?
  17. Alright, now you've done it... You've botched the alarm clock or turned it off instead of hitting snooze, but now you're awake and you're late for whatever. What is the rest of the world going to have to wait for you to do? (As a brief aside, these choices were carefully selected and I assure you the fact that there are five of them has nothing to do with five being the default number of poll options combined with any laziness on my part. So if you routinely do any other fru-fru nonsense garbage in the morning, keep it to yourself. )
  18. I heard bits and pieces of it as I was waking up this morning "whaaaah whaaah shipping helmets whaaaah whaaah by skydivers, for skydivers whaahh whaaah whaah UPS whaah whaaah whaah-" Then I started dreaming about skydivers cramming other skydivers into giant helmets and UPSing them across the country
  19. my download leveled off around 340KB/sec man, 7:30 and beyond... priceless.
  20. I had just spent three months living in South Florida when GTA: Vice City came out. Now I move to LA and GTA: San Andreas comes out. It's all a little too erie. I might also point out the tail of the canopy is not closed, if you angle the camera right you can see straight through the cells. And on a more superficial note, it's quite probably the ugliest rig and canopy I've ever seen. My only disappointment regarding exit points is no stratosphere tower in LV.
  21. oh god, I hate that plane. As far as I know yeah, the plane in the mission "stowaway" was probably bigger (and definitely climbed higher) but that's another plane I haven't seen outside of the one mission it was in.
  22. I bought the ps2 just to play gta5 About an hour and a half to make all the jumps, and about two hours of editing. That's what happens when you piss the game off. yes, it comes in handy to quickly get from the desert airstrip to the top of mount chilad. The plane I'd like to find somewhere is the DC-3, you use it in one mission and I've never seen it again.
  23. Yes, most of physics involved with BASE in this game are pretty reasonable, however there are a few exceptions, all of which are demonstrated here... - power lines aren't real - you surge forward a lot on opening - if you rub your end cells against a building it won't muck up your canopy - if you exit a vehicle in forward flight (be it a helicopter, a jet, a motorcycle you just drove off a cliff, whatever) you don't keep moving forward with it, you stop and fall like a stone. /eta: oh yeah, and there's a reset button
  24. When I graduated, I was voted "most likely to... wait, who are we talking about again?"
