A popular RPG genre monster collection video game and spinoffs. It was not the first of its kind but it was extremely popular.

It isn't out here either but you can still install the apk from a site that isn't google play or the ios app store. https://youtu.be/5a4zfA5v_-k

What should I do with my associate's degree?
fiveworlds replied to Tampitump's topic in Science Education
Surely you get recognition of prior learning for when or if you choose to do a bachelor's degree in computer science knocking years off the duration of a bachelors degree program. -
The Linux terminal. It isn't new to windows I have it on windows 7 and it works fine unlike the mac versions could never get xcode working....

It isn't paradoxical the answer is that once the host opens the first door with a goat behind it you have a 50:50 chance of getting the car. -
Xanthan gum is a water thickener. I used a particular brand of Xanthan gum while I was on internship in a hospital called nutilis clear.

For me at the moment a big minus would be that my graphics card is bust (kinda I glued it back together and it seems to be working OK) and if it wasn't it doesn't support Direct X 12. Then there is backwards compatibility problems with older versions of Direct X so some old video games won't work anymore (The pain of getting elder scrolls redguard to work). Also because Direct X 12 is used by the operating system you cannot uninstall to install an older version of Direct X without breaking windows 10. Also windows 10 has a new architecture to allow it to better use multiple core processors so if you have a dual core processor like myself you'll probably need to upgrade to a processor with more cores.

It is preety much entirely maths though. I am using svg because it has no native 3D support to try and learn how to define 3D because it wasn't really taught all that well in maths class and I wanted to learn it. The solution to the above problem was the Pythagoras Theorem with x^2 +y^2 = 1 and x = y making the unit for z which is a translation of the point x and y by square root of 0.5. I wanted to try rotation about a line but that's fairly difficult maths as far as I could see http://inside.mines.edu/fs_home/gmurray/ArbitraryAxisRotation/

Trying to setup 3D Math right in svg here's how far I have gotten. The Z axis is obviously a translation on the x and y co-ordinates. At the moment I am using a translation of 1 but I am wondering would it be right to use the square root of 0.5? <script> function Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points(matrix){ var svg = {width:800, height: 800}, midpoint = {x:svg.width/2, y:svg.height/2}; Z_Translate = {X : -1, Y : 1} X = matrix[0] + (matrix[2]*Z_Translate.X) + midpoint.x; Y = matrix[1] + (matrix[2]*Z_Translate.Y) + midpoint.y; return [X,Y]; } svg = { width : 800, height : 800, midpointx : 800/2, midpointy : 800/2, } axes ='<svg height="'+svg.height+'" width="'+svg.width+'"><line x1="'+svg.midpointx+'" y1="0" x2="'+svg.midpointx+'" y2="'+svg.height+'" style="stroke:rgb(255,0,0);" />'; axes = axes + '<line x1="0" y1="'+svg.midpointy+'" x2="'+svg.width+'" y2="'+svg.midpointx+'" style="stroke:rgb(0,255,0);" />'; axes = axes + '<line x1="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([0,0,-550])[0]+'" y1="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([0,0,-550])[1]+'" x2="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([0,0,550])[0]+'" y2="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([0,0,550])[1]+'" style="stroke:rgb(0,0,255);" />'; axes = axes + '<line x1="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([0,0,-105])[0]+'" y1="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([0,0,-105])[1]+'" x2="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([100,0,-105])[0]+'" y2="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([100,0,-105])[1]+'" style="stroke:rgb(125,125,125)" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="butt" stroke-dasharray="1, 2" />'; axes = axes + '<line x1="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([100,0,0])[0]+'" y1="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([100,0,0])[1]+'" x2="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([100,0,-105])[0]+'" y2="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([100,0,-105])[1]+'" style="stroke:rgb(125,125,125)" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="butt" stroke-dasharray="1, 2" />'; axes = axes + '<line x1="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([0,-50,0])[0]+'" y1="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([0,-50,0])[1]+'" x2="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([0,-50,-105])[0]+'" y2="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([0,-50,-105])[1]+'" style="stroke:rgb(125,125,125)" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="butt" stroke-dasharray="1, 2" />'; axes = axes + '<line x1="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([0,0,-105])[0]+'" y1="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([0,0,-105])[1]+'" x2="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([0,-50,-105])[0]+'" y2="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([0,-50,-105])[1]+'" style="stroke:rgb(125,125,125)" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="butt" stroke-dasharray="1, 2" />'; axes = axes + '<line x1="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([0,-50,-105])[0]+'" y1="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([0,-50,-105])[1]+'" x2="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([100,-50,-105])[0]+'" y2="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([100,-50,-105])[1]+'" style="stroke:rgb(125,125,125)" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="butt" stroke-dasharray="1, 2" />'; axes = axes + '<line x1="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([100,0,-105])[0]+'" y1="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([100,0,-105])[1]+'" x2="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([100,-50,-105])[0]+'" y2="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([100,-50,-105])[1]+'" style="stroke:rgb(125,125,125)" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="butt" stroke-dasharray="1, 2" />'; axes = axes + '<line x1="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([100,0,0])[0]+'" y1="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([100,0,0])[1]+'" x2="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([100,-50,0])[0]+'" y2="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([100,-50,0])[1]+'" style="stroke:rgb(125,125,125)" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="butt" stroke-dasharray="1, 2" />'; axes = axes + '<line x1="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([0,-50,0])[0]+'" y1="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([0,-50,0])[1]+'" x2="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([100,-50,0])[0]+'" y2="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([100,-50,0])[1]+'" style="stroke:rgb(125,125,125)" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="butt" stroke-dasharray="1, 2" />'; axes = axes + '<line x1="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([100,-50,0])[0]+'" y1="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([100,-50,0])[1]+'" x2="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([100,-50,-105])[0]+'" y2="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([100,-50,-105])[1]+'" style="stroke:rgb(125,125,125)" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="butt" stroke-dasharray="1, 2" />'; axes = axes + '<circle cx="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([100,-50,-105])[0]+'" cy="'+Three_Dimensional_Resolve_Points([100,-50,-105])[1]+'" r="1" stroke="black" stroke-width="3" fill="black" />'; axes = axes + '</svg>'; document.write(axes); </script>

I was doing some gardening for my mum today when I noticed an unusual growth on one of my crab apple trees. Does anybody know if this fungus is harmful to the tree or not???

Is that the bombadier beetle or is there another?? That is a hydogen peroxide and hydroquinone reaction supposedly.

Most efficient method for learning to touchtype?
fiveworlds replied to StringJunky's topic in The Lounge
Honestly I learned to type playing video games on my computer twenty years ago. -
Well the dragon could probably light the gas through autoignition where the dragon would place pressure on the gas with its' muscles. Forcing large amounts of gas through already lit gas would allow the animal to breathe fire. The main inconsistency here with the modern idea of a dragon is that it would need to eat a lot of plants and probably be a herbivore using the ability to breathe fire to scare off predators. It would be closer to a cow than a scary sheep eating predator.

My graphics card is after breaking as running unity for direct x11 was too much for a direct x9 supported graphics card. Looking for a cheap replacement graphics card preferably able to run direct x12 and Vulkan.
-
You'd probably like forged alliance forever so. Cool I already know blender. This is true however unity clearly states that they don't charge royalties in their faq https://unity3d.com/unity/faq # Nevermind my graphics card crashed seems running unity's direct x11 on a direct x9 graphics card was a bit too much and I got a blue screen of death.

I started to learn the unity game engine a few days ago and learned about making terrain. I wanted to put a cave through the big hill on the left to a beach. But I can't seem to find any method of doing it without using a "paid" asset.

Humans define evil. What do humans do that is evil exactly?? Animals kill each other all the time we call that nature ... but when humans kill each other it is evil. So really evil is the imposition of ideology on yourself and others. Somebody came up with this ideal that people shouldn't kill and imposed it on everybody else because they could. It wasn't always that way at one point in time people died in the Roman Colosseum for sport and nobody cared.

There is 2 main methods LAN to LAN and LAN to WAN. LAN to LAN means the router not connected to the internet needs DHCP turned off so it is basically just a network switch. LAN to WAN need you to setup static routing. Not every router can run LAN to WAN. You are better off connecting the router to a switch. Routers are designed to manage connection to the internet whereas dedicated switches are designed to manage a company's intranet. Modern routers can do both jobs however a 24 port switch will generally cost less than a 4 port router. https://www.amazon.com/ZyXEL-Fanless-Managed-Rackmountable-GS1900-24/dp/B00I126P8U You can also buy dedicated routers which are not switches at all for large businesses such a http://www.ebay.com/itm/CISCO-2900-SERIES-ROUTER-2901-w-512-256MB-HWIC-1DSU-T1-VIC3-2FXS-DID-PVDM3-16-/122025823131

where to find help? university programs?
fiveworlds replied to SpaceMonkeyX's topic in Medical Science
I found it almost impossible to know exactly what I wanted to do with my life. You spend most of your life in a classroom environment with next to no exposure to real jobs besides school related jobs. You go through school and at the end of it you're expected to pick from a list of college courses in order of preference. You list a number of careers but do you have an idea of what those careers actually entail?? -
Well yeah that would give the mountain a wider base. Not many mountains have a wide peak...

I remember the Irish voted NO in 2008 because the Irish people believed it could affect Irish neutrality. The treaty was amended to mean that while the EU can ask Ireland to go to war they cannot force Ireland to go to war.
