When you’re up that high, it seems like you’re not falling at first! This is a video of Joseph Kittinger — first man to skydive from outer space using high altitude balloons. He went up to 102,800 feet (31,300 m) and accelerated up to 614 miles per hour (988 km/h).

Remember back when it was safe to browse the internet? Neither do I. I do however, remember a time when it was only PCs that needed protection. These days, even mobile devices need all the security they can get. In fact, I am starting to wonder if I need security for my new Smart TV! It is time for Security 101.

Squirrel Super Soaker
Last Updated on Sunday, 12 August 2012 03:24 Written by Foose Sunday, 12 August 2012 03:22
If you ever have a squirrel problem and some free time, why not wage a war? Kurt Grandis used Computer Vision to recognize birds at first, but his backyard feeder attracted squirrels. Using a web cam, the recognition software, and a few other hardware tricks, he managed to have the computer shoot a super soaker at the squirrels! Drawback: Too many squirrels, so the soaker constantly ran out of water.

I have owned this mouse for exactly a year now, and thought I’d give it the review it deserves.

Civilization V Gods and Kings Error MoveFile Failed Code 3 Fix Solved
Last Updated on Saturday, 11 August 2012 03:38 Written by Naota Friday, 10 August 2012 11:47
An error occurred while trying to rename a file in the destination directory :
MoveFile failed; code 3.
- Install Civilization V on your C drive with a short name. I saved it as “Civ5” (c:\Civ5) and will reference it as such.
- Install any updates you want. I patched up and installed the other DLCS first
- Install Civilization V Gods and Kings in the same Civ5 folder. When prompted if you want to install in the same folder, hit yes.
- Install any remaining patches and play
Error MoveFile Failed Code 3 is due to the fact that the path was too long in length when saved in Program Files. This is because there are way too many folders in Civilization.
I hope this guide helps someone, as when making this test, my Civ V install went rogue and deleted half my programs/games when I was testing other solutions. ugh lol
