Virtual marijuana (digital plant)

[R. L.]

I was looking for something related to tea drinking (I am a
heavy tea drinker), then ran into this one think that it is
kind of interesting:


High Grow

http://www.highgrow.us/objectives.html


Here is the description:

"The program allows you to choose three marijuana seeds and
plant them in three pots in a virtual growroom. When watered,
these seeds will all germinate and begin their life cycle as
determined by their genetic structure. By caring for your
plants every few days, you'll be able to watch them grow
strongly and develop potent flowering buds. If you ignore or
forget about them however, they will die after a week or two.

You'll be able to manage and control the plants' environment
by watering, fertilizing and by adjusting the light height and
photoperiod. You'll also be able to control and improve growth
by pruning growing tips. Finally, you'll decide the exact
moment to harvest your crop.

When you harvest your plants, the dry mass, health and final
potency (measured in %THC) of each plant is calculated and
compared with each other (and with other plants from previous
efforts). You will then be awarded a certificate of merit for
every plant you successfully harvest."

something about human nature that the only form of life we have created
so far is purely destructive. We've created life in our own image.

That comment was redundant, to be kind. Unecessary and naive to be
honest and uninformed to be brutal. Grow up Corliss.

Thanks, John. I'd lost track of the lattice one and hadn't gotten
around to googling for it.

boy..that is not what the site said:

"NOT SO IMPORTANT: These savers are freeware. Feel free to
give them to anyone and everyone."

And I went to the main page and there is no payment
information available either....may be the author changed his
mind that we didn't know about?

Hmm. Getting a little shrill for a troll.

The readme actually does say that, but according to this message:

Message-ID: <[email protected]>

"If you read the home page he explains that ALL the screensavers are
freeware now, he just hasn't changed the download files readme to
indicate that. So you can keep all of them if you like them."

Seems like -someone- could use a spliff or two to calm the hell down.

But would that make it easier to track the attributions in this rapidly

To whom it may concern:

Found the following at
http://theopencd.sunsite.dk/programs-v1.4/Multimedia.html#5

"As the name suggests, Really Slick Screensavers is a collection of
attractive screen savers. They are built using the OpenGL graphics
library, which results in an impressive display on your screen, but also
requires fairly up to date hardware (we recommend a graphics card with
OpenGL support and 16 MB of graphics RAM). If you are in doubt you can
always try, as the screen savers are easy to un-install (as is every
program on this CD).
This wonderful set of screen savers was created by Terry Welsh of
Sunnyvale, California in his free time. After being contacted by Will
Martin of TheOpenCD, he agreed to release them under a free software
license (the GPL), which was required to meet the criteria for inclusion
on our CD. As it happens, others were just waiting for this to happen,
so they could continue its development and will hopefully now take it to
new heights! This is a great example of Open Source dynamics at work,
and we at TheOpenCD are especially proud to present Really Slick Screen
savers for your viewing enjoyment."

The Really Slick Screensavers are on the OpenCD (here
http://theopencd.sunsite.dk/) and have been released under the GPL
license so as near as I can tell, they are freeware.
