I went to load a game demo. It was Super Pop&Drop. But it was not just a demo, it was a whole game. Now, 6000 levels later, I wonder when this is gonna end and why this happened to me. What is your obsession?

I have two of their products. 1 old air powered jet plane that still works ok i think. 2 havoc heli laser battle havocs. My problem lies in the helis. I hadn't had them that long and I was having a lot of fun with them when the cheap material (apparently) started ripping at the bottom on the red one. Now it only spins out of control and no matter how much I tape it, doesn't help. Please tell me your feelings on Air Hog or if you can, any ideas to help me fix my coptor. Thanks and have fun!

It shows my Robosapien RS Media robot dressed up like Darth Vader and operationg a real working Nerf 'N' Strike machine gun as he tries to wipe out the Rebel base. For some reason Wall-e is at the Rebel Base, I have no idea why! (Note the machine gun really works! It shoots 3 shots per second and there are 25 foam Nerf darts per ammo belt). If you ever wanted to see a Muppet with a Light Sabre then this is your chance! :) Off Topic Discussion Fri, 31 Oct 2008 22:05:28 GMT roschler http://www.robocommunity.com/forum/thread/14430/Vadersapien-The-Empire-Strikes-Back/#discussion?src=category_rss http://www.robocommunity.com/forum/thread/14400/Free-CodeWeavers-downloads-today-2008-10-28/?src=category_rss CodeWeavers, the guys who make snazzy versions of WINE (to run Windows apps and GAMES on Linux or Mac) have unlocked, freely downloadable versions of their stuff up today. http://down.codeweavers.com/ Apparently they'd said before (something to the effect of) "If Bush gets gas prices below 2.79 we'll give away our software". Well, it happened, and there's the free (today only) downloads! I won't get to it today, but I figure to see if the RSMedia suite works with it, as well as the Rovio utilities (it'd be handy to be able to restore without a windows machine!).

This year I am adding some animatronic motions to it. At least, I'm working on adding them, and am making good progress on my low tech mechanisms. This is definitely a low cost project that will benefit greatly from being on display in dim light. The endoskull got a makeover this evening, to give it a more ominous look. A chrome bumper from a scrapped toy car was cut up to fashion eyebrows and the bridge of the nose. My WowWee Alive Chimp is also scheduled to help hand out candy. I've fashioned a sort of pudgy body for it, and will have it close enough to the inside of the door so that it will react when the door is opened.

So far I can't load slashdot or several other of my usuals. Gmail loads one time in seven. Google.com times out. I can't even load my ISP's "portal" thingy to check status/news/whatever (charter.net, although their sell-you-something site works fine). RoboCommunity works just fine :) Anyone know anything?
