On Feb. 4, 2015, Wheeler confirmed that he would use Title II to give internet users the strongest protections possible. The full Commission approved his proposal on Feb. 26 — marking the *biggest victory for the public interest in the FCC's history*.
Now, under President Trump, FCC Chairman Ajit Pai is doing everything he can to dismantle Net Neutrality. Speak out now to reject any attacks on the open internet.
Subject: I am against the "Restoring Internet Freedom" act
Dear [Name of person]: Please support any amendment that would strike out Sections 628, 629 and 630 from the Government Appropriations. These sections would undermine the FCC's Net Neutrality rules and prevent the agency from enforcing these critical protections. It is unacceptable to use a budget bill to circumvent the FCC's open rulemaking process that millions of citizens participated in. The American people have called for strong net neutrality rules. Congress should let the FCC do its job, and not engage in unproductive partisan brinkmanship. Thank you, [Your name here]
It is on a blue spec that we all live upon. Most of us never leave, and can only wonder at the cosmos. Distances and sizes beyond comprehension, humanity's thin veil flies through these distances. While the outreaches of space are of a size unthinkable, there are billions of stars that fill them. Our life-giver is one of those billion, and a small rock that falls around it is what we all call home.
This is a representation of what it could look like to travel from the surface of the earth to the outreaches of the universe in about 4 minutes. Every star within our galaxy and every galaxy displayed are real stars and galaxies that have been cataloged. Distances are to a size that is accurate to real life. At the end of the video, the sky above earth lights up with all of the known objects above earth being displayed, primarily distant galaxies we don't normally see.
This was created using Space Engine, which is a free, and continuously developed universe simulator. It's very cool, and can actually generate a universe much bigger than our own.

Filmed with the Canon SX40 HS at 240fps. I made this thing out of clay, and I really didn't know what to do with it. Then my camera arrived. The zoom allowed me to be very far away, to protect the camera. Stay tuned for more videos!

Yes, Lazerlord finally has a laser, but how good is it? I want you to know what this machine would be like if you got it, so pay attention to the video images!
---READ MORE FOR LINKS AND UPDATED INFORMATION---
How good is it? Well, it's about as good as you'd expect. It won't cut much, it will etch nearly anything that can burn, and it has reasonable detail. It would also be trivial to add your own tools to the end of this and make a plotter or other type of CNC machine. I may do that in the future, so stay tuned!
Buy this machine (discounted Nov. 1-11!): https://goo.gl/NEmjw3

LaserGRBL configuration for this machine: Copy-paste the following code into the laserGRBL Gcode terminal when connected (I couldn't find an easy way to change these in the configuration file):
$1 = 255
$3 = 1
$32 = 1
$100 = 80
$101 = 80
$102 = 80
$110 = 25000
$111 = 25000
$120 = 5000
$121 = 3000
$130 = 380
$131 = 300

This is a remix of the iconic music from super mario 64. This music plays whenever mario is in peach's castle. As with all of my remixes, I used the program of Mixcraft.

A remastering of the original soundtrack of the classic game for the Sega Megadrive/Genesis Comix Zone.
Created in Mixcraft 6.0, this is my interpretation of what the original composer Howard Drossin would have made had he not been limited by the Megadrive's sound card. I have remixed the whole soundtrack, and will be releasing songs week by week in the order that goes from best to least best. Some of the later levels have WONDERFUL music, and I want people to hear it, hence why I'm uploading them first.
Please excuse any poor technique used in the game, as I didn't look up how to do ANYTHING, so I probably missed out on a lot of it.
Original Composer: Howard Drossin
Release Year: 1995
Download this remix: Will be available once they are all published.

So I found this subwoofer box on the side of the road in my neighborhood, and I tested it and found that it worked. So what is the first thing I do? Well, I'll let the video answer that.

This is the song that plays during scenes 14, 19, and 20 in Vectorman 2.
Vectorman 2 was the second in a series of run and gun platform games developed by BlueSky Software and published by Sega for the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis. It was released in 1996.
The original soundtrack was composed by Jon Holland.
