Well, I got it without help using my brains, but that's because I'm a genius.

Quote from logitekg25 :

these boys for a bmw meet this saturday, should keep my feet comfortable while the design is supposed to be for driving also.



men's pro spec 3.0 from DC

That's a very small shoe. Is that why you have a BMW?

Quote from CSF :

Ha ha ha

Still faster than EJ!

My father had a STD.

Just select all the PMs in your inbox (List Messages in User CP), select Mark as Read at the dropdown list at the bottom of the page and click Go.

Oh, the Irishmen and their magic.

Quote from GreyBull [CHA] :

Installation laps perhaps? Keep in mind that Alesi had a 186 best the opening day, after roughly 15 laps - same amount Simona did yesterday.

Yes, because he had turbo issues, ergo, "crappy Lotus engine of the day".

Let's play this game and choose the best Ganassi driver ever, alright?

For the left bracket, I see Vasser beating Pruett and Dixon for a place on the semi-finals, against Montoya - if IndyCar fans have any common sense, they'll remember how crap Wheldon was when with CGR. Montoya has a much larger fanbase do to NASCAR, and is a way better driver, so I think he makes it to the finals against Zanardi, wjo obviously will beat Rahal, McMurray and Franchitti on the other side of the bracket.

Regarding the 500, Alesi seems to be slowly getting the hang of the car. During Practice 1 he was 'only' 11 mph slower than Newgarden, and ahead of Simona, who played the *crappy Lotus engine of the day* card today. Both Rubens and Michel Jourdain Jr. were faster than many veterans, with Rubens staying only 0.0007 seconds behind last year polesitter, Tagliani.

I need to get some pictures and videos uploaded, I spent two years with a few people to help get around £10,000 needed to send two people to Sweden ,two people to Kenya and someone a week long training course so he could get the job of his dreams.

With £20 you could get them all found with doobies by the police and have them deported back to where they came from.

Quote from Klutch :

You're an idiot if you don't, its what INSURANCE IS FOR. its WHY YOU PAY FOR IT. Why pay for it if you're not going to use it?

Because it will screw the other guy even worse if he does and he doesn't want that to happen. Is it too hard to understand that being litigious about everything isn't always the best solution?

Robin Miller just wants to see the circus catching fire. This comment on the SPEED website sums him up quite well.

I checked his bio. Miller lives at 4790 W. 16th Street, on the planet Ork.

"frotto110 has not made any friends yet".

Gee, I wonder why.

Quote from Loko VEN :

$1,5 it´s the full tank (Mazda 3) (95 octane)

Doesn't PDVSA want to sponsor me? I have a very liberal political orientation and am marginally faster than EJ Viso and Pastor Maldonado.

US$1.53/liter (US$5.78 per US gallon) of the cheaper one, and about $7.10/gallon for the high-octane (98) variety. And that's because we have the 4th largest oil company in the western hemisphere.

Quote from -NightFly- :

I think it's safe to say that i have never took someones skin and drove around with it. So according to your logic: I like Western Wolves teamskin, i just go to my downloaded skins folder, put it on my main skins folder and go drive around with it on public servers? For me it's not ethical....but that's just me.

I think this is a different problem. The LFSW interface isn't intended to be used by groups (their support for teams is restricted to an user-fed database and newsreel). Still, in the event of someone who grabs the skin of a team they don't belong to and go driving in public with it, they'd just make clowns off themselves, as all the seven forum users still active in-game know who's in which team most of the time.

As for the original issue of stealing "private", individual skins, I'd like to put it under a new perspective. Think of it like this: we, skin makers, don't really own the rights to any of the logos and trademarks we use when making our skins. This doesn't necessarily mean we're stealing from any companies, because of fair-use and all that. However, that doesn't forbid other people from doing the same and creating, through their own efforts, copies of the original livery - and by this I mean, among other things, grabbing a "snapshot", if you will, of your skin. You'd have to be pretty stupid to call someone a thief for having a skin that's similar to the one you made.

The same applies in this case. We don't hold exclusive rights to your work. In fact, we hold no rights at all in 99% of the time. The fact that someone saved a copy of your skins with the same filename even implies that they aren't looking to claim credit for it, but simply found our work nice and wanted to use it, just like we did when we saw whatever inspired you to create it - the merits of having to start from scratch or not in order to achieve that are irrelevant, even more so because what one might consider as " starting from scratch" is, in truth, the result of somebody else's work - the logos we collect from the web, the pictures we take as source for the overall design, the skin template we use et cetera.

I spent my last $2 paying an angry-looking hobo not to attack my car, does that count as a purchase?

Here's my verdict:

I think the accident itself was unfortunate. From the look of the picture, that ford looks more like a big puddle than anything really, so I guess they can be excused for driving into it.

Now, how can anyone drown in 5ft of water? Let alone a dog, who I suppose wasn't wearing a seat belt and could theoritically swim to the surface quite quickly?

And another point, since we're discussing idiocy. If you cannot cross that ford even, why are there roads going into and out of it, but no bridge crossing?!

Quote from PMD9409 :

You would too, admit it.

All 72 times, and I'm not even sterile.

I think copying skins isn't exactly stealing. As long as you don't try to pass it on as your own work, it's fair game, IMHO.

If a skin is public, well, that's exactly what it is. If I don't want other people to copy my skin, then I just won't upload them to NSFW. - err...LFSW...

Surely I'd love to hear feedback from the people using my skins, but if that's not possible, then tough titties.

Quote from Bean0 :

I suppose the big question is, does the uploader of the replacement skin get into trouble for breaching the LFSWorld decency rules, as the skin has a badly drawn picture of a cock on it ?

I believe having the skin deleted from the server is the only penalty they might incur in this case.

Quote from DeadWolfBones :

The most annoying thing about the broadcast was that the Brazilian cameramen clearly weren't accounting for the "ticker" at the top of the screen on the American broadcast, so the tops of cars were routinely getting cut off by the position list.

At least you had a ticker. I had no idea where Rubens ended up after his last pit until the pileup at the restart!

Quote from Mustangman759 :

Ill end up hittin myself in the balls like 2 weeks ago while playing basketball

White people can be good at soccer, though.

Quote from Crashgate3 :

It's actually a pretty valid point. Why do the letters' 'names' sound so different to the phonemes they represent?.

They don't. The problem is that you use latin letters with germanic sounds. In romance languages, they're pretty much spot-on.
