    Statistics - need some help

    Got it. Then you're down to a 16.94% chance of success. Good luck with that.

    Statistics - need some help

    Now I'm confused. Do you mean three numbers will be drawn and you have to hit all three of them? Or do you mean you have six numbers, three numbers will be drawn, and as long as you have one of those three numbers, you win? If it's the former, everything we've done so far is wrong. If it's...

    Statistics - need some help

    Yeah, they are two different things. Most people - as I'm assuming FrustratedUser did - use the terms interchangeably. Does he really care that his odds of winning to losing are about 17:83? No. Does he care his probability of winning is about 17.103%? Yes. I'm trying to keep things simple. :)

    Statistics - need some help

    17.103% EDIT: I'm assuming that no number can be drawn twice. Since you're curious, here's what I did in lay terms: The chance of you hitting the first number is 6%. The chance of you not hitting it is 94%. On the second number, assuming you didn't hit the first, your chance of not...

    Very Serious R/C Modelling

    Um... NO wing generates positive when inverted*. Any plane sustaining upside down flight is doing so through a combination of wing-lift generated via a relatively severe angle of attack and thrust. With enough thrust, you could have a completely flat wing capable of flying upright or inverted...

    Meat.

    The chickens and top roast will be smoked somewhere between 10 and 12 hours. The roast will, of course, first be brined and then given a nice dry rub. The chickens will just get a rub. The wings, ribs, and brats will get the grill, of course. The ribs will go on first to slow cook for a...

    How many days have you been a member of AT?

    So let's see. The current boards report I joined on Oct. 9, 1999. Of course, I was on the BBS boards for a few months before that. We'll say 4 months. And now for the calculation: 1706 posts * 1.5625(days/posts) = 2665.625 days. We'll call that 2665 to be fair. Adding in four months at...

    Portland, OR: Snowboarding?

    Yeah, man. It's only about 45 minutes from the city to a number of good places. 45 minutes the other way gets you an ocean. This isn't a bad place to be! Mt. Bachelor is a great idea. I certainly don't mind the extra driving since driving anywhere around here - especially now - produces some...

    Portland, OR: Snowboarding?

    So I just moved to Oregon a few months ago. This being my first winter here, it only makes sense to take advantage of the mountains and the snow (and to ditch the rain for a while). Snowboarding is obviously the best escape plan! So, who around here rides or skis? Where should I go? I've only...

    102" DIY screen project done

    Much like everything else in home theater, your preference in screens is just that - your preference. Carada certainly makes a quality product but so do Da-Lite, Stewart, and others (such as Jello and myself!:P). You'd be best off either demoing as many screens as possible to find what you like...

    102" DIY screen project done

    By the standards "they" set out, yes, my viewing distance is way too short for the screen size. However, that setup is the way I prefer it. I'm not overly sensitive to the infamous "screen door" effect for which LCD projectors are known so the distance doesn't bother me much. I do notice...

    102" DIY screen project done

    Yes, every projector has a ratio (or range of ratios) between throw distance, i.e. how far away the projector is from the screen, and image size. Some projectors have fixed ratios, usually the inexpensive ones and the really, really expensive ones, while others have some adjustability, like the...

    102" DIY screen project done

    You're absolutely right. Mine is definitely just thrown together. The problem is that I'm living a very transient life at the moment. I just moved to Portland, OR a couple months ago and will be here - at most- for a year. Then it's off to another apartment and another attempt at throwing...

    102" DIY screen project done

    That screen is okay, I suppose. But how, really, am I supposed to be impressed by a lowly 102" screen when I can walk into my living room and see: A projector, a screen, and a sense of scale? :D Actually, YoYo, I have to commend you and your project. My setup is nearly the same as...

    YACT: Lotus Elise - My impressions

    Wow, this thing came back from the dead! I'm still in talks with the dealer about the car and, if it turns out he can secure an Exige or a Sport model for me, it could very well mean I'll have to sell all of my other worldy possessions to make it happen. And boy would it be worth it! :D

    YACT: Lotus Elise - My impressions

    The tach goes to 10,000 and there isn't a redline indicated. I think the actual redline/fuel cutoff is 9200 or so. As I said, I had to hold it to around 8,000 in light of it not being broken in. I know the Lotus redline is higher than the Toyota redline because the engine management system is...

    YACT: Lotus Elise - My impressions

    How comfortable you are probably depends a lot on your driving style. I tend to sit closer to the wheel than most. I'll get into shorter friends' cars and move the seat forward. I'm a huge fan of the "wrists on top of the wheel with shoulders against the seat" rule. I also sit pretty vertically...

    YACT: Lotus Elise - My impressions

    I do have an intention of buying. It probably won't be right away but I'm definitely in the market. I've also driven the new BMW M Coupe. I've looked at M3s as well as older Porsches. My next car will definitely err on the ridiculously impractical side of things. The Lotus is currently my top...

    Suggest me a motorcycle helmet

    Shark makes really good helmets. I've had the S500 Air for well over a year and have loved it. I don't remember exactly how much I paid but it was somewhere in the $250 neighborhood. That's actually kind of cheap considering it's both SNELL and DOT rated. You can't go wrong with Arai or...

    What to do in Oregon?

    I just moved to Portland about a month ago and can vouch for the fact that there is tons of good stuff to do up here. I've already had to spend some time in Salem for work and, well, it kinda sucked. At least, compared to Portland it sucked. Spend your time up here. You can't go wrong.

    Shouldn't a 6 cylander engine get better gas mileage than a 4 banger?

    Size does have something to do with efficiency. There are simply way too many factors at work to reliably say a 4 cylinder automotive engine does or doesn't get better mileage than a 6 cylinder automotive engine. Reference: Here.

    Are there any independent automakers left?

    Off the top of my head, I can think of Panoz, Koenigsegg, Saleen, Caterham, Ariel, and Lotus. I mean, sure, some of those are a little pricey but Caterham, Ariel, and Lotus all make reasonably priced machines! Now, if Prodrive would just manufacture that concept they put together...
