...Might seem fast, but I pay for 2x that lol

-Stephen66515 (September 16, 2011, 09:24 AM)

I would pay double what I'm paying now for that! I think that I'd need to pay around $400 a month to get even remotely close to that. (From the last time I looked...)

Works out here (For the 100meg fiber optic connection) + TV (Minus Sports and Movies) and Phoneline (With unlimited weekend calls to landlines, and free calls all day every day to mobiles on the same ISP network) at around £40/month (GBP) or something.

Living Room / Google Translate: For Animals

« Last post by KynloStephen66515 on September 16, 2011, 07:38 AM »

OK...So there I was, being bored as hell on stumbleupon.com and wimp.com, when I fell across the following video...

Right...OK...I did actually miss the bit with the link right at the beginning...so the entire way through I was thinking "Heh...fun spoof"...Until I saw an actual GOOGLE link...

Hmmmm...Doubt it works...lets try it anyway......

Introducing Translate for Animals (beta): Bridging the gap between animals and humans



Making the world’s information universally accessible is a key goal for Google. Language is one of our biggest challenges so we have targeted our efforts on removing language barriers between the species. We are excited to introduce Translate for Animals, an Android application which we hope will allow us to better understand our animal friends. We’ve always been a pet-friendly company at Google, and we hope that Translate for Animals encourages greater interaction and understanding between animal and human.

Translate for Animals is an application for Android phones that recognises and transcribes words and phrases that are common to a species, like cats for example. To develop Translate for Animals, we worked closely with many of the world’s top language synthesis teams, and with leaders in the field of animal cognitive linguistics, including senior fellows at the Bodleian Library in Oxford.

Take a tour of Translate for Animals
Visit Android Market – more apps for your mobile

To remove Translate for Animals, go to Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > Animal Translate and select “Uninstall”.

...Wtf...Did I fall asleep and miss an entire century...is this some type of Google Humor that I really am not getting?...wtf...

I don't have an android, so I cant actually download this and see if:

A> The App is actually a real App
B> WTF it thinks my dog's are saying.

Even if the App is real (IE, you can download it), and it does "Translate"...All its really going to be doing is collecting random sound bytes from a possibly massive list, at complete random...then giving you one to listen to...

Anybody care to explain this to me?!

Just downloaded and ran this.  Works VERY well indeed.  Was actually shocked at how many lines of code my small utility actually has (Even with all the options like blank lines, and designer unchecked).

Out of curiosity...How many lines does your line counter have?

Living Room / Re: In search of ... a bluetooth ear piece finder

« Last post by KynloStephen66515 on September 14, 2011, 07:08 PM »

Baby Daughter (BD) bought a Jawbone - don't know which one - for her [shudder  ] iPhone.

Now she cannot locate it  .

Anyone know of a means to track/trace a bluetooth ear piece?  Kinda like unto calling a lost cell phone?  (Google's been no help.)  She'd really like to locate it  .

-barney (September 14, 2011, 07:03 PM)

If its turned on and 'Visible' simply keep using your bluetooth phones to 'scan' for it...


If its turned off, I fear your eyes are your only option

General Software Discussion / Re: Case of the missing partitions when downgrading from W7 to XP

« Last post by KynloStephen66515 on September 12, 2011, 07:11 AM »

Only thing I can think of, is to perhaps backup all the partitions data onto another drive, then format the partitions using XP.  Might work, might not, worth a shot though.

From the Donate page:

-mouser (September 10, 2011, 11:45 PM)

So if someone donates $1000, sends it to an author...then gets pissed off and demands their money back...you refund them, without punishing the author?
