There should be a human body program. 
Something that can do the modelling and everything for you. 
Maybe even extract from pictures, drawn or otherwise. 

There kinda is

There kinda is

But it could be better and distributed freely!

Well that video is from 2006. Probably better stuff exists now.

Ha ha no credits deposited in the bank for the win!

yes sir

I swear the PSN download speed has decreased since launch...

Not for me. Test your dload speed

It seems to be capped at 40 for me. The most i've seen is 41, like once. I can't get it to go any higher no matter what i do.

PS4 has always used just over half of my download speed. So annoying

Same.

Hi Five!

[7H3]

It just seems that it used to be faster when it first came out and I was downloading games from psn... now it seems to take twice as long

Oh i read your first post wrong. Speeds seem the same for me. Downloads are still pretty decent.

yeah it is weird... a little bit ago... it said 20hrs for 3.2GB d/l... I paused and restarted and it's less than 30 mins now

It's really quite disturbing and unsavory of companies to tout speeds as they do... who cares how many bits i'm getting when everything I download is in terms of bytes...?
1024 MB = 1GB
8Mb = 1MB
1GB = 8000Mb
50Mb = 0.00625GB

So normally you might think I'm getting 50Mb/s d/l speed so a 1GB should take  ~1000/50 seconds... but nooooo it'll take 8x longer than you would expect...
why is this done this is rediculous and should not be allowed as a standard of measurement for internet speeds as nothing else uses this measurement...

20Mb = 2.5MB
50Mb = 6.25MB
100Mb = 12.5MB

has it always been this way? I mean file sizes have always been in bytes as far as I remember... I remember 56/28 k d/l speeds but were they bits or bytes then?

Yeah I agree it's annoying.

I'm looking at the calc book that my sister got me for Christmas a few years ago.
It's interesting, it seems like it covers Calc I + 2, but then it also seems to cover some subjects of Calc III, and ODE.  Nowhere near as in depth for the last two I don't think.  Chapters 11-13 look to be mostly ODE stuff.  Chapter 9 seems to cover stuff that it sounds like is only taught in Calc 3 usually, like partial derivatives.
