What kind of machine are you using?

What does it do normally? At work, I use VMWare a lot for product testing and debugging. As a result, I've come to really really hate VMs.

Holy crap! Damn studios trying to pry my hard earned cash from my grubby little fingers. And they're succeeding! What with all the awesome comic movies this year, e.g. Hulk, Batman, Ironman, Hellboy (sorry, but I love comic characters :(), Wall-E, X-files, Tron, Forbidden Kingdom, etc etc etc...

But but ... the nostalgia!

I think I am looking forward to that movie. It's been so long since I watched any X-files and it takes me back to high school :) Ah, nostalgia...

Hey EDCC, is your computer still working?

Just give him the website -.-

Seriously, just take the mac to the Apple store and get a one of the geniuses at the bar to help you out. There is nothing more we can do from the confines of a forum. This will be the last post I make in this thread as the people coming up with problems do not ... lets not even go there. Just...

Mate, if he did it successfully you should be asking him. Or email Macplay and ask them about it. Though it appears that someone in that other thread has already emailed Macplay and got a response. You might need to switch off a processor to get it working. So follow the instructions contained...

Can't say I am surprised.

Yes, you do. Get one for free from Avast or AVG and make sure that you have your firewall and the built in Windows Defender software running (you get this with Vista and XP SP3).

When you create a file, if you don't want a .h file to be created, you need to untick the checkbox that creates the corresponding header file.

Change the line #include <iostream.h> to #include <iostream>. I don't know what C++ book you're using, but the example code you've posted was outdated about 10 years ago.

Well, the English themselves frequently confuse England, Britain and the UK. Can you really blame anybody else? They should just call it Viroland and be done with it.

I admit I know very little about quantum computing. I'm already busy enough as it is trying to keep up to date with what's going on in my subject area (neural networks and general intelligent systems).

So we going to start getting transmutations to gold soon? After all, if we're going to go down that route anything is possible.

You are right of course, and I should be more specific ;) You waste too much energy electrolysing water. The electrolysis process itself has a maximum efficiency of 85%, while conventional (very optimistic) estimates place the efficiency of current processes at about 50%. That ignores the...

No one apart from philosophers and the loony fringe in academia refer to "strong" AI when talking about AI. When you hear about AI from scientists, it is almost always "weak" AI. Personally, I prefer to see the distinction as pipedream AI and practical AI. ;) Even outside the realm of AI...

How long does your 3D scene take to render? If it rendered in half the time, would your productivity double? When I was doing my PhD, I found that the neural networks I used took ages to train. Each experimental run took about a day, due in part to the complexity and the size of our data sets...

I like conspiracy theories as much as the next geek. But a car driven by water is just not going to happen. You get a net loss of energy after doing the electrolysis + combustion and that means it's not sustainable and is rather pointless.
