Not sure about the second one... still haven't figured out the AI bot stuff yet. I do want to get one running on my tower (8-core AMD, NVidia Quadro and NVidia GTX 780 video cards, 32gigs RAM, like 4TB storage)... it sounds tempting to mess with, but wonder what it could really do

If only I had the money to get everything for my Halloween costume... it would be epic! For reference... watch 'Scrooged' with Bill Murray... my costume would be the Ghost of Christmas Future... I have it mostly figured out, just haven't figured out the skeletal hands, and would need a Raspberry Pi to run the monitor (and a UPS battery in a backpack to run everything)... could easily win any costume contest

((Funny enough, just watched both Ghostbusters movies (the old ones)... gave them the good volume treatment (the old 1989 Technics speakers still have the same power). Might have to run CPU burn-in overnight for heat... 'sposed to get down to 40F overnight, and the heat ain't on in ma's building... so my old warhorse of a computer is the heat... tried Furmark earlier, but once it got to 85C, it exited itself before it overheated))

Why doesn't glue stick to the bottle? Glue doesn't stick to the bottle because it needs air to set. Most glues contain water, which acts as a solvent to keep the glue liquid. When you apply glue to a surface, the water evaporates into the air, leaving behind a sticky residue. This residue is what holds the two surfaces together.Inside the bottle, there is not enough air for the water to evaporate. This is why the glue stays liquid and doesn't stick to the sides of the bottle.

Did you know there's a place where three time zones meet? This is called the Treriksröset, and it is located on the border between Finland, Norway, and Sweden.

    popularized by a Twitter account in 2010. It is named after the misunderstood giant in the 2003 film Big Fish. Older or alternative terms used locally include simply "the fog" or sometimes "Big Mama", Seasonal Names: It is often associated with the terms "June Gloom" or "Fogust" due to its prevalence in the summer months.

    Did you know....the horns on the viking's helmets are a myth? The popular image of the "horned Viking" can be traced back to the 1870s. Costume designer Carl Emil Doepler created horned helmets for Richard Wagner’s opera cycle Der Ring des Nibelungen to enhance the characters' theatrical presence. (I BELIEVE in the Where in Time game, they tell us this too....)
