<0> Clowne ("with credit to Rahly"): Thanks for the kick in the pants. These work perfectly: http://qndelphi.pastebin.ca/331450
<1> hmmm shift slowing it down anyway
<2> shifts are fast though
<1> why 24bits?
<2> i use them for words
<1> that shift for padding appears to be ineffecient
<0> Clowne: It's a number I'm dealing with. It's a 24-bit big-endian number that I needed to convert to 32-bit little-endian to use in Delphi.
<1> hm, i see
<3> ah.
<3> just a simple Accum 8 bit shift, byte fetch and store.
<3> just in reverse order.
<4> it's weird. back in the early to mid nineties u used to see a lot of bit shifting in place of division and multiplication. although processors have gotten much faster at mul and div since then
<0> Seems to work. Swap24Big_32Little($0000C1) results 193 ($C1).
<0> erm
<0> bleh
<0> nevermind
<2> lol
<0> NOT what I just wrote...but it does work.
<0> But I have to go. Wife wants on the computer now, as does her dad, and one of my sons... I try to say "But I've only been on for 8 hours, I just barely got started on my project!"...but they don't listen.
<5> Dad! Mom! I'm Home!
<6> yipeeee
<7> lo

<7> KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 26 (Reuters Life!) - Guard dogs protecting a fruit orchard in Malaysia have met their match -- a 7.1-metre-long (23-ft-long) python that swallowed at least 11 hounds before it was finally discovered by villagers.
<7> sheesh
<5> http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/applications.html
<8> is delphi2007 out?
<8> place i got d7 for $89.99 has
<8> developer studio pro for $109
<8> developer studio profoessional 2006
<8> thats like$2000 + most places
<8> or it was a month or 2 ago
<2> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a6ZZrgYeR9M
<9> where can i pickup dev studio pro from for $109?
<8> academicsuperstore
<2> lol
<2> those are academic licenses too
<9> ahhhh
<9> no good to me then =/
<2> that means, you can't sell anything you make with it
<9> haha when it sounds too good to be true, it usually is
<8> http://www.academicsuperstore.com/market/marketdisp.html?PartNo=746101&qk_srch=746101
<2> yup
<2> academic license
<9> thanks for the link pete but an academic license is a no go with me
<2> yeah, a lot of people create products to sell
<8> welll perhaps
<9> yah, thats what i do
<9> long gone are the days of coding for the pure fun of it ;-)
<8> i guess im too old to do it for $$
<9> how long have you been programming?
<8> all you youngins are quicker than me
<2> lol
<9> haha
<8> goto the locl voc nightschool get a course scedule and get a copy i guess
<8> that makes it $200 tho
<9> yah
<2> i need to get myself one of these
<2> http://www.thinkgeek.com/gadgets/tools/8ace/
<9> lol
<8> not so sure how safe that is
<9> lol
<2> why wouldn't it be safe?
<9> looks like itd be nice for eating rice
<8> Ti is kinda notso good with organic acids
<2> ummm most tool aren't made of pure titanium anyway
<8> goto tacobell and get ya a plastic one to try the concept
<2> i have used plastic sporks
<9> ive never used a spork
<8> jet engines ar Ti+2%Th
<8> Thorium aint so nice
<9> brb
<2> http://www.thinkgeek.com/geektoys/warfare/7b54/
<8> i dont unnerstan the price structure
<8> ah ther it is
<8> ammo 1.89
<8> Converted ping pong ball bazoka $29.99

<5> Mom! Dad! I'm Home!
<8> welcome home youngin
<5> uhuh. who are you?
<8> the old fart
<5> I see, Mr. Reed.
<5> Where's Donna?
<8> dyna?
<5> Donna Reed (aka Dayna)
<8> http://www.sudocue.net/checkcls.php
<5> Donna Reed is a TV show from the 60's
<8> yup
<8> i prefer topper
<5> strange little animated man
<8> think thats before animation

<8> waverly
<10> hi everyone
<2> hey dayna
<5> Hello Dayna
<11> hi
<11> quiet here tonght
<5> seems so.
<5> but thats not new. What you doin?
<4> hihi
<5> Yup! Sure is quiet in here.
<5> Did you know that Dr Who spoilers are out all the way up to Season 4 #1
<8> geeze season 4? wasnt that 1972?
<11> la
<11> I definately need to get my nails trimmed.
<11> getting so I have difficulty typing.
<12> heh
<12> just wait until they start to curl
<11> heh joo funny
<13> hi
<11> hey
<11> your water cooled system leaking yet?
<13> nope
<13> heating up the place just nice actually :)
<13> the tubing is a bit flexible and a bit smaller than the plugs, so its impossible to pull it off the plugs once you put them together
<13> did anyone take physics at school? im having some trouble with sliding friction
<11> I did.
<11> what is the problem?
<11> its just a matter of breaking them into vectors and doing the math.
<13> well, all the pages i read claim that the force resulting from sliding friction is independent of contact area
<13> and my brain just doesnt want to accept that ;)
<14> Heh. "Announcing the new iPhone shuffle: Push the button and the iPhone shuffle will select one of your contacts at random and call them."
<11> sliding friction is a function of normal force if I recall.
<13> for instance http://www.pa.uky.edu/~phy211/Friction_book.html or http://www.ac.wwu.edu/~vawter/PhysicsNet/Topics/Dynamics/Forces/FrictionalForce.html or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sliding_friction
<13> Vibes: you saw http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VLo1USJIkgY ?
<11> static friction is a function of surface area... once you begin to slide... it matters not.
<13> DaynaGirl: well, thing is, when i try it in the real world, it seems to matter ;)
<14> LordCrc: No, just saw a photoshop ad mockup.
<13> Vibes: watch it, its pretty fun ;)
<11> LordCrc: how are you experimenting?
<14> Will when what I'm currently watching end.
<14> s
<13> DaynaGirl: well, if i have say large flat object, like a flat door say, and id try to push it "face down" across the floor, it's a lot harder than if i make it stand upright on the longer edge (and possibly tilt it so only the "edge-corner" touches)
<11> is it hard to start moving or keep moving>
<11> ?
<13> both
<13> perhaps there's some surface issues that they don't mention
<13> what i experience most often involves vinyl (i think) floor and metal objects (like a large metal tray)
<13> or perhaps its in my mind
<13> still
