In a possibly futile attempt to keep the number of erroneus threads down, I think its a good idea to have a thread for those interesting "Look what I found on the Internet" moments.

This is not another silly thread for jokes (but feel free to let rip) but more an attempt by me to repair some of the damage I have done to this site with my non-sensical ramblings of which I think I am on the brink of repeating as I type this.

The links can be related to anything, even games/console info if you so wish.

I'll kick it off with this, looks like a blu-ray player for xbox360 is in development, by lite-on as well, (good company)

www.digitimes.com/

And here's a release schedule for both xbox 360 and ps3 for a comparative look at the showdown between the consoles.

www.gamepro.com/

anyone else find anything interesting?

note: I know theres a news section but sometimes you see things which aren't game related or do not warrant their own news item

Sorry if this thread steps on any of the gigantic toes that seem to laying about this site.

I found this question that people should solve.

A car that is accelerating unifromly travels 18 m in its fifth second of motion. What is its acceleration?

Accelerations is measured in metres per second squared, wrong anyway. hehehe.

I could figure that out but cbf. Thats why the answer is 3.6m/s :)

Once again acceleration is measured in metres per second squared.

It's 18 m for that one second, not for 5 seconds.

Well word it better than....

a = (final velocity - initial velocity) ÷ time
a = (18m/s-0m/s) ÷ 5s
a = (18m/s) ÷ 5s
a = 3.6ms^2

But it doesn't say what initial velocity is, is it assumed that it is 0?

Answer says 4 which is close enough for me ATM.

Well you have to make an assumption. Anyway, 3.6m/s is right, i know ^_^

Actually, Morgan you are wrong based on one assumption - the car accelarated from a standstill. if the car was travelling at 13m/s uniformly until it began accelarating, it would be accelarating at a rate of 1m/s/s, for example.

Based on the information provided, making no assumptions, i can only see one answer - zero. [Rage]

Further to my previous blog with the promo marketing stuff (i.e. crap I give away to help promote the name but didn't really expect people to buy) I've now started selling shirts/clothes.
