Floating LCD Clock eta: and [link]
This is the most stable levitating product out there we could find and even features an auto-rotate mechanism to spin objects clockwise, or counter- clockwise. A great desktop toy that will fulfill all your dreams of levitation AND space flight!
How does it work? It's simple. Just plug the base in, then grab the LCD clock and hold it between the top and bottom of the base at approximately the height and orientation shown in our images. You'll have to find the 'sweet spot', but it's easy to do with a little practice and the unit will beep and blink at you to guide you along the way. Once you are in the right range, the micro-processor controlled magnets will take over and you can let go. The shuttle works the same way, but can be a bit trickier to get to float. Make sure you look at our additional images to see the proper orientation.
Ya gotta check out the picture. File this one under "pointless, but incredibly cool."
Why is gmail constantly telling my that I need to delete my temporary internet files? I JUST deleted them not five minutes ago and I got the message again!
Yeah, I can see not wanting to have to call tech support every time your fighter jet freezes up.
Seemed like way too much work, even for me. I did download a program that enabled you to calculate the BPM of a song by tapping out the beats on the spacebar, but I've never used it.
Is that a Mac program? If so, can you let me know what it's called?
Lord Drayson, minister for defence procurement, told the The Daily Telegraph that the planes were useless without control of the software as they could effectively be "switched off" by the Americans without warning.
Dude must've watched Canadian Bacon.
Is that a Mac program? If so, can you let me know what it's called?
Yeah, it's Mac. I downloaded it years ago, so I don't remember what it's called or where I got it. It's probably still on my iBook, so I'll look for it when I get home....
eta: I googled 'itunes bpm' and this was the first match (and came up multiple times) so I think this must have been what I downloaded: [link]
iTunes-BPM adds a simple floating window to iTunes that allows you to set the beats-per-minute value for the currently playing song by tapping along to the music.
Thanks. I don't do beat mixing when I deejay, but knowing bpm would be very useful for songs I use for couples dancing.
Check out my eta to my last post, if you missed it....

that assumes a sense of rhythm.

that assumes a sense of rhythm.
I'm guessing that after a period of time (say, ten seconds) all your rhythmic errors would average out to be pretty close to the correct bpm. (Dunno if the program actually works this way, but to me this makes the most sense.)
