Online software simulation feature
The programmers assure me they'll have the bug fixed within 24hrs.
Uber
The new Uber programmer now feels confident enough with the source code
to begin modifications. He still needs to proceed carefully but in
roughly a week, he should have at least completed initial coding so I
can resume Uber shipping.

Hybrid V3
I've received and tested the latest version which combines all the
elements. On my local PC the timings are accurate to 30ms. This means if
I replay a video to get rotor and ball timings, the timings are more
than 30ms inaccurate. Average manual clocking has 50ms error. So there
is significant improvement, but also keep in mind the timings are all
taken automatically, and in footage where the wheel shakes around to
make testing difficult, and there is still room for improvement not that
it is needed.

Affordable housing solutions
Again another non-roulette post, but many of you asked about my foundation's research (universalsymbiosis.org). The current project is the housing, and things have moved along faster than expected. I'm in the middle of selecting a block of land for the building. We also now have a qualified builder on board.
Once the land is purchased, and will only be about $70,000 for roughly 10 acres which is cheap country land, two particular test buildings will be completed. One will be a conventional building that complies with building standards, andf the other will be a foam dome home which is what I most look forward to. Basically the company that does them inflates an enormous ball, sprays it with building foam, covers it in mesh for better support, sprays concrete on it, and basically done minus a fgew points. Very quick and much cheaper. Because domes are self-supporting, they need far less material.
The is to create the cheapest home possible without making it "cheap and nasty". ie from the inside, it will have every appeal oif a normal home. The outside can be made to be whatever we want.
It is difficult to know the timeline for progress, but soon I'll decide on the land which is the first step.
When I have more time I'll give more details, but am posting this because a few players were interested.

New secure document software
The new secure document software is ready. I'm making the service available to the public for free, despite the nearest competitor charges over $10,000 for the same kind of document security. So any document publisher will be able to use it for their own documents for free. It may upset secure document service providers, but it happens - they overcharge anyway.
The website draft is at www.freedocumentsecurity.com but it needs some finishing touches before it is launched and software made available. The software is not related to roulette in any way. Simply I didn't like the secure document software I'm currently using so had my own created which took roughly 2 months to do properly. In the coming week or so I'll transfer all documents to the new software, then the previous documents will be suspended. While I'm at it I'll update the documents. I'll send an announcement when the updated documents are ready.

Back into things
I've just about recovered from my illness. Fascinating really. More out than ever went in (sorry). Anyway I'm back into things and aim to at at least be up to date on emails by the end of today.
The new roulette computer website is online. If you wanted to have an ad published in the used computer section, let me know.
The online software programmers have finally agreed to fix the simulation bug, but after that is done I'll still change programmers.
I'm way behind on shipping but this will all be sorted this upcoming week.
Regarding the Uber, the programmer is still learning the source code. I will receive an update on his progress shortly. When he's finally past this part, he can finally make the small mod then I can resume shipping Ubers.
And finally the Hybrid, I'm expecting the latest build in the next day or so.

Limited responses for few days
Unfortunately I've caught a nasty bug (begins with G and isnt nice) so I'm far from running at my best. I've responded to all critical issues like code requests. I'll still attend the support forum and get some emails done, but I'm quite broken for now so please be patient and I expect to be up to date on all emails by the end of the week. I'm aware of a lot of emails in my inbox, and will get to them asap - you dont need to resend.
