To accidentally the whole Lego pedal.

exactly

Quote from J@tko :

Avagadro's constant = 6.02x10^23 atoms per mole.

Moles = Mass/Molar Mass, Molar Mass of water = 16+2 = 18

According to here, there are 7.5x10^18 grains of sand in the world.

Let's say there is 100ml in a glass of water. That is 100g of water.

Therefore there are 100/18 moles in this glass of water, = 5.5556 Moles.

This is 5.5556*6.02x10^23 Atoms = 3.344x10^24 atoms in this glass of water, which is alot more atoms than grains of sand in the world.

Of course, this estimate to the number of grains is probably a long way out, although even this 100ml glass has 500,000x more atoms than this estimate. So in conclusion, a glass of water probably does have more atoms than grains of sand in the world

Another fact to stay on topic [Chemistry related]

One mole of any substance has roughly the same amount of atoms [6.02x10^23] as the number of grains of rice to cover the UK to a depth of 10km.

somehow you made me lol

...i hope this will be shown in finland

Quote from vane :

I would say the easiest way would be to make a PIC microcontroller circuit which interfaced the pot value into the serial port on your computer then write some software to interface it into a game controller

I don't know how to do that last bit though

or simply get cheap usb pedals and put that lego pedal in front of them, then connect the lego and the cheap pedal, then when you press lego pedal the usb pedal will be pressed

Quote from Nathan_French_14 :

I decided to have a go on GTA last night. Unfortunately, the server i was in was full of american kids, around 10 years old i would guess.

These kid's kept on bitching everytime i took a shot at them or killed them, telling me to stop. I put up with this for a while until i eventually ranted at him saying "stop your bitching. One of GTA's aspects is to kill other people, its the point of the game" etc. etc.

After i said this, one kid tryed to be funny and said "i cant understand your language". At first i thought he meant my accent, but no...He actually thought there was a "british language" and an "american language". I then tryed explaining to him how there is no british or american language, there all just accents and americans SPEAK english, but he was'nt having none of it. I wish i could have recorded the conversation as it went on for 10 minutes, but i still cant believe this guy thought i was talking "british language". Dont kids goto school anymore?

im sorry to say this, but i think american and british english as different too. i know the lanuange is mostly the same, but they sound so different to me i instanly think they are different lanuange. altrought i can still understand both of the accents by just learning one

holy jesus, i got scared from his youtube wideos even if i knew him coming, i got scared

why dont you just stick this into the back pocket

i bet nobody fights you or even thinks about it then

also, this could do, its a little smaller

heres both of them in action

Quote from DevilDare :

Well thats pretty nice, but wouldnt it insta break when you put your foot on it?

50/50. it doesnt brake(so much) tested it. putted it tightly and pressed it with alot of force. it didnt break but it wobbles alot

so, i had a boring day and desided to use my creative head.
this is what i got

as you see, i got it working by few springs i found.

(really sorry for so poort image quality, took with my stone-aged phone and with unstable hand)
its not bending very much, so i dont really know is it so good in use. but since i got this far i want to make it work but cant find out how to. i got no joysticks, gamepads or else that stuff(exept xbox controllers and my FFEX)
so any ideas how to make this work of art work?
oh and heres to show how little it bends

Quote from bunder9999 :

when you get that account back, you might have to mail valve the picture of your cd key to get the game transferred to your normal account. sorry, i should have mentioned that earlier.

ok, well i got this account now. i might just keep playing the game on this account, it isnt really so important to get it to my other account since i play hl only in single player.
edit:or not, ill try that picture thingy

Quote from bunder9999 :

probably not, unless you remember that user/pass combo.

was that account used on your machine? it might be possible to recover the username from the steamapps dir... then you can use the password recovery dealie.

k, ill try. now i tried the account retieve, i entered my cd-key and it should send the account name to the mail adress its used on. but ill try that too
edit:hey that worked :O ill found the user name, now ill send recover pass

i desided to install half life 2 again and play it. but i have a problem, ive already used the game on one account what i cant remember, not the name or password. even didnt find anything from my mail since its so old. so is there anything i could do to play the game?
thanks

this looks interesting and thing i would buy but i dont have a G25 so

that poll fails, everyone have to say yes. religion is beliving into something(IMO) and those who dont belive in god or that, belive that there isnt any god so they have their own beliving AKA religion. kinda hard to explain tho

nice on bean0
*mblixt
yea, thats the one

i think there is religion, but gods are...well 50/50. maybe, maybe not
