Sure.
Steps to becoming Captain Planet Villain:
1. Get obese.
2. Lose all of your hair (hair around the sides is acceptable).
3. Spend your entire life and money to get a company off the ground, and finally be happy with succeeding in life.
4. Don't even suspect that a group of kids with magical rings embodying Wind, Water, Fire, Earth, and... (whats that last one? Well, whatever, probably not important) will bring you to your knees in bankruptcy from destroying your company.

I never watched the series, so I thought the villain wouldn't be THAT bad. Nevermind, I don't want to be the villain. Why don't we give that job to someone we would have fun kicking the crap out of, like Hitler.

Yeah, just "carbon" would work. -mono is only applied to the second element.

Anyway, I'm not sure how those would bond... It can't be a double-replacement reaction because not all the bonds are ionic. And I can just smell an extended octet in there somewhere. XD

Of course. How else will atoms combine to get 8 shared electrons? It just needs some combonationage.
Title: Re: Captain Planet!
Post by: MagmarFire on January 10, 2009, 08:39:52 PM
Well, they appear to do it through electronegativity. ;)

If you deal with compounds that have just about any of the noble gases, who already have stable electron configurations, however, you're probably going to run into a situation where you get more than eight shared electrons for the central noble gas atom. This kind of configuration is unstable, after all, which explains the high toxicity of the compound.

It's called Hacking Videogame Consoles, by Benjamin Heckendorn. It also shows you how to turn an NES, SNES, and Atari 2600 into handhelds. I got it for Christmas last year.

You should look up his website, he's done some fantastic stuff. I've been a fan of his for years.

That's amazing, TW. Have you made any? Are parts expensive?

You can make the PS1 portable, but it doesn't say PS2 anywhere... :(

No, I haven't made any, but I want to sometime. Parts can be expensive depending on where you buy them and their quality, but I think he said in the book that the PlayStation portable with the hand-made case cost about $200 to make, after buying essential things like soldering irons and other tools. The one with the CNC machine-cut case was about $100 more, I think.

The book only covers the original PlayStation, though; A PS2 portable is quite complicated to do, though he has done it. He's also made a portable PS3, numerous Xbox 360s, and even made a Neo-Geo MVS arcade system into a handheld and a home console.

Here (http://benheck.com/all-game-projects) is a mostly-complete list of his projects. (Some of the more recent ones are missing, though you can see them if you go back in time on the main page of his site.)

If you threw your heart into a bucket, you'd be dead, so you wouldn't know if he appeared or not.
