I heard backmarkers are wanted, so I'll try my best.

It's a dirty job but someone has to do it.


Edit: I know I should have waited to say that...

Seems like I'll be out of town in a swimming pool all weekend. See you guys at Aston then.

I can't make any of the other races, have fun.

We do see the purpose, we just don't enjoy it as much as you do.

Quote from benjimc :

blindness... All i can say is wow. Watch that movie!

Quote from danowat :

agreed, brilliant film.

Quote from de souza :

waiting to finish the book to watch that one.

Done and done. Great stuff! Although...

(I know this is not the "recommend a book" thread and if you're not interested in books you might want to skip to the next post. :tilt

...It just doesn't do justice to Saramago's book. And I'm not saying "oh they changed that part in the movie, how could they?!"... I'm saying: what that old man can do with words is simply out of this world, true genius. There so much to be had in those pages!
Surely there's translations for lots of languages, but I wish you guys could read it in Portuguese... by his own Portuguese, as himself asks.

Pretty bad round in my return to a Road Sport event after a looong time (guess I just raced in the first Winter season). But it's good to be back.

Had a good qualify with a PB, but both races were quite messy.

The Sprint race ended in the first lap when I forgot FZ5s brake earlier than me, tapped Fuse while braking for the chicane (sorry!), spun, rejoined in last. Did some good laps but made too many mistakes.

I enjoy long races so was looking forward to the Feature. It started ok, had a good pace but spun by myself again in the same place. Had some good and bad moments but again I felt I had the pace to be fighting with Yann but ended kinda last due to countless mistakes. Still had fun though!
Oh I had an incident with someone after the last corner (don't remember who it was.. I guess the contact was my fault so sorry about that!).

Next one will be my last, as my vacations will be over after that. See you guys there.

Ah, I finally get to beat you again.

Yes, I'm very kind.

There's a good chance I'm able to race the next two rounds, so...

Great.

@Stuff: thanks for pointing that up.

Probably, but I'd rather not do this at work.

:worried:

Oh well I'll have a better look when I can then... if no one else comes here and tell us what's wrong.

If you still want to show all users (or use a similar query to something else, or just out of curiosity), try changing from...

FROM users U, layouts L
WHERE U.id = L.user_id

to...

FROM users U
LEFT JOIN Layouts L ON U.id = L.user_id

That way, if I'm not mistaken, the two tables are joined even if the second table has no corresponding value.

@Flame

Has been a while since I don't mess with SQL but it might be something along these lines:

SELECT U.username, COUNT(L.user_id) AS number_of_layouts
FROM Users U, Layouts L
WHERE U.id = L.user_id

This "count" thing returns the number of rows that match the condition. I guess. Never used it.

Souza Racing is back for more (poor) racing!

Nice car, awful paint job, bad beer.

Trying to be as unbiased as possible here, but if you're using this as an ultimate goal to gain experience - and I believe it doesn't come down to AI alone -, you might as well go for the complete environment.

Waiting to finish the book to watch that one.

Finally for him!

Hope Sauber can build a reasonably fast car. Same for Renault, it would be too bad to see Kubica struggling with the backmarkers again.

Might as well give it another shot...

Quote from Mackie The Staggie :

Moving on from the soap drama that is Liverpool, anyone watching the African Nation cup.....and anyone else, like me, hating those bloody horns that they blow for the full 90 mins. Learn some bloody songs damn it.

As if football itself wasn't bad enough these days, now we'll have the most annoying supporters ever. This one will be a tough World Cup.

@Liverpool: it's always been my favorite team outside Brazil, and I completely agree with Moose and Mackie... whatever Rafa started when he got there, it's simply not working for some time now. The team needs some sort of shaking, a change, new air, whatever. It's like he's just experimenting all the time and is never really sure what he wants.

Forgot we're on summer time, races will start one hour too late for me.

Maybe next time, sorry.

Quote from Forbin :

I'm not sure I'd ever be able to take a film with David Caruso seriously. I'd be constantly waiting for him to pull out his sunglasses.

Hahah.

Session 9.

Football vacations around here.

Quote from Boris Lozac :

Do you really demand originality in 2010? Billions of films are made, offcourse everything is seen million times so far. But this is just awesomeness.

'Demand' might be a too strong word, but yes, certainly!
Billions of movies being made is no excuse for the 1,000,000,001st movie to be like all the others. There's always a way to make things better (or worse).

Also I don't think anyone is saying the movie ruined 2,5 hours of their lives, because it most probably didn't. All in all it's a good experience.

Don't take things too personally, gladly we don't like all the same stuff.
