undead usually aren't armoured but bandits might be so you use the steel sword on them, assuming they don't steal it first :)
+10 armour piercing :)
make it a graphic novel?

My understanding is attenuation always applies to amplitude, for example when daylight is attenuated by dust it gets darker, when clouds clear it gets lighter, irrespective of any phase or frequency shift :) So a poesis of amplitude would be dawn, or dusk.
saying nuh-uh to watching fallout4 playthroughs!!!!!!
the day analog public broadcast signal died
digital tv is still free here, not that I can see it where I am we haz to use a sattelite dish the past 20 years or so :)
Still free, but no longer analog here.
She was on Facebook early this morning. I haven'g been on, but got a notice she shared something that I posted. This was around 8:45 this am...probably my time, so maybe an hour earlier in Texas. Strangely they are one hour behind us in time zone somehow.

I wonder if that hurt when he did that?

Complaint: I had ordered a new 2TB hard drive to replace a 1TB drive in one of my external enclosures. Everything was hunky-dory until I plugged the new drive into my 7-port USB hub. It should have worked. But didn't. Then I discovered that none of the 6 (yes, six) drives plugged into that USB hub were now working. After crawling under the desk, checking cables, and power I started methodical diagnosis. I determined that if each of the six drives were one-by-one plugged into one of the front panel USB ports the drives each worked OK. (whew !!) So it had to be either the USB hub or the up-connection cable. or the backside USB port on my computer, which meant more crawling under the desk. I was almost about to brave the dust and spiders again but decided to test the hub itself a little more carefully. I eventually determined that I could get three drives and the up-connection to work and then reasoned that inside the USB hub there must be two chips each driving four ports (7-downports and 1 up-port) and sure enough the four ports that are functional are all grouped together at one end of the hub. So I guess I blew a chip. I suppose that's OK, the hub is about 8 years old. However, I'd have expected Belkin products to be a little hardier based on the price I had to pay for it. Then I had to explain why, at one point, none of the drives were working. I suspect that if a drive is plugged into one of the bad ports, it boogers up and jams the data bus in the hub. But if those ports are empty then the other four work?. Good enough explanation. But I'm happy because I can continue my work because I don't need all 6 external drives active at one time much anymore, it just saves playing musical cables, but I really should start looking for another 7-port hub.
We're surrounded by office and apartment towers that bend the free-to-air channels out of shape, especially when you try to record and time shift a program, the satellite works fine so long as it doesn't rain much XD
Is always tomorrow here, relative to you
If you think about it attenuation might sound like a skateboard moving on a concrete slope, doppler and all ?
Graphic like WARNING GRAPHIC IMAGES OF ... ?
'Nother complaint: I've decided to take my Vista machine and convert it to a Win7 machine. But I don't want to lose my Vista configuration. So I completely removed my Vista hard drive temporarily and replaced it with a brand new 1TB empty hard drive and used my remaining unactivated Windows7 OEM installation disk to install Win7-SP1. Worked great, installed quickly without problems except it doesn't yet recognize my video board and has defaulted to a basic video setup but I can get 1440x900 resolution so it's workable for now. HOWEVER, after checking that it had access to the internet I told it to start performing Windows updates and it just sits there saying it's checking for updates. the performance meter shows one processor 95-100% busy and the other processor about 5-10% busy. I've left the machine on hoping that it will eventually do some downloading but now it just sits there being quietly busy without any visible results. Is this normal?
PS: after virgin installation of Win7 it had InternetExplorer8 installed. I couldn't get WindowsUpdate to work so I manually went to the Microsoft site and downloaded InternetExplorer11 which installed along with a bunch of needed updates and is working fine but I still can't seem to get a reasonable behavior out of WindowsUpdate.. I checked on the Internet and there are reports of similar behavior and some things to try but nothing definitive and the one patch that was suggested refused to run on my machine (says: "not for my machine"). Some people said they just waited it out. So that's what I'm going to do.
tee hee
so if the train leaves its station and the other train leaves its station
and the trains meet,
then how fast were they moving?
This little town is 60 miles from Buffalo and down in a valley so the only people who get good broadcast TV are those with VERY tall antennas or those who live on the hills. When I was a kid (in the '50s & early '60s) we got one channel OK, a second with snow, and a third in a continual blizzard. Then TV cable came to town, then eventually satellite TV. Nowdays everybody has marvelous HD big screen entertainment. Analog broadcast is gone but digital broadcast from Buffalo is available but still not practical for this town.
But do you remember (or still experience) rapid ghosting and flashing when an airplane bounces the signal as it crosses the path?
Just fast enough!

Do you have USB 3.0? New stuff is usually built on the USB 3.0 spec, these days. I think I still have USB 2.0 in my box. 3 is supposed to be much faster, something you'd want especially with a hard drive.
Dana
Oh, yeah. I remember that! I remember seeing the ghost of a different channel overlaid on the channel I was watching, too. I think that happened more with UHF in the early days, but not sure...it's been a long time.
Dana
Was that a scene in The Matrix ?
That explains a lot :) The old analogue signals would bounce around in atmosphere, and off water, as well so on a cloudy night you could hear radio from China, perhaps you still can
poor guy
...me after a 12 oz cup of Turkish Coffee. (and yes, I did drink one)
..if they were Amtrak Trains in Ohio, at best 10 - 12 mph.
...workstation is off for the next couple days, 100° temps not healthy to rendering.
Not pleased with the city on a couple accounts tonight
For one, they misprinted the festival schedule schedule. Apparently the fireworks were last Friday, even though the festival just started today. Went all the way down there for nothing. I want my bus fare back.
More seriously though, a school where a friend of mine teaches was found to have dangerous concentrations of lead in it's water system. Most likely has been like that for decades. Nice they finally told the staff that the other day.
Why is it that are people who are supposed to be so smart act so stupid?
But then the scenery would be littered with dead drones. And they aren't biodegradable.
