Germans are just more organised; you can't blitz all of Europe in a
matter of , what, 9 months, unless you're pretty organised. If we tried
that, there'd just be a whole bunch of tanks backed up at the border,
waiting for some jerk in the right lane trying to get over to make a
left turn.

5,188 | Hi there,
I'm using POv-Ray on my IBM compatible at home, but I would like to
run some things at work on our VAX computer. I believe there is a version
of the source code for POV-ray that is VAX specific, but I'm not sure where
to find it (I've looked at the several sites where the IBMPC version of it
can b... | 7 |

There's also a program called ODYSSEY (MODEM directory on the Simtel
archives) that emulates MNP 4 and 5 (others, too, I think, but these were
what I was interested in). I was getting a lot of garbage when I called
one number, and MNP 4 cleared it up completely on my ordinary 2400 modem.
(Fortunately, the remote end... | 5 |

That's one way to put it. Keeping the algorithm classified means that
disclosure of it falls under the rubric of "national security." Nothing like
federal marshalls to guard a monopoly...
Agreed, although this is still somewhat better than the status quo :).

Just in case the original poster was looking for a serious answer,
I'll supply one.
Yes, even when steering no hands you do something quite similar
to countersteering. Basically to turn left, you to a quick wiggle
of the bike to the right first, causing a counteracting lean to
occur to the left. It is a lot more di... | 0 |
5,195 | Mike, Ring is the RED wire. Tip is the GREEN wire of most standard
phone lines. They two constitute the two wires most often used for
voice telephone (the two live lines). They are the two innermost
connectors of an RJ-11 phone jack.
Another way of telling is that if you measure voltage from RED to
GREEN (ring to tip.... | 15 |

They do interpolate - it's not linear interpolation though. You are correct
that the frequency content is not altered (more specifically, the baseband
spectrum is preserved, and so is every Nth image spectrum. The other
(N-1) in N image spectra are removed, where N is the oversampling rate)
Ideally the filter has... | 15 |
