Quote from sinbad :Say what you like about Hamilton, we haven't seen him blatantly cheating.

Repeatedly lying to the stewards after the 2009 Australian GP about overtaking under the SC is cheating IMO. Also, his involvement in the Spygate scandal is either cheating or extremely close to it.

Yes and they have been very vocal about it!. This is by no means a complete list.

Hands up who else thought Alonso pushing Vettel onto the grass on the outside of Curva Grande was worse than anything Schumacher did in this race (but neither were worth penalising).

The other day my wife said she thought we would have less arguments if I was less pedantic. I told her she meant we would have "fewer" arguments.

Quote from dadge :but yeah, thanks for the insight. i think i'll look into this a bit deeper.

If you are looking into using a distributed parity RAID setup, you should read up on "unrecoverable read errors".

Quote from Mysho :Haven't heard about films listed there... Are those like B-films or is it some quality classic movies?

From the 'front page' earlier I saw M listed (which is a true classic). There must be more gems in there and you'd imagine they would only expand the collection from here.

Quote from flymike91 :I don't know how Irish people can drive manuals at all when they're drunk on whiskey and full of haggis.

I realise you've never been particularly heavy on facts but haggis is traditionally Scottish, rather than Irish.

I just had to blow up one of the tyres on my car. I drove to the garage but instead of taking a 20 pence piece the air compressor now takes a 50 pence piece. I asked the attendant why there was such a big price increase. "That's inflation for you", he replied.

I just got a job working with a theatre company. Before each performance I have to test the trap door to make sure it works. What can I say, it's a stage I'm going through.

There's a section in the BMI episode "Roaring VTEC: The Battles at 10,000 RPM" called "S2000 Mega Test & Battle! '04 vs 1st Gen - Just how much better is the '04 S2K". They also have an "MCR Light Tune" model (a tuned version of the 1st gen). Both the standard cars are yellow (one has a blue strip at the top of the windscreen), so it might not be the exact one you're looking for. Worth taking a look though.
[SOLVED] - Looking For Artist/Song Title Of '90s Pop/Dance Hit

I'm looking for the artist name and/or song title of a '90s pop/dance hit. The vocals were done by a woman (who was white and might have been from Israel). The CD single had a purple and black cover. I've done some searches for popular songs of the '90s but I haven't hit on anything yet. This is a bit of a stretch (like most of my identification required posts), but maybe someone out there knows. Any pointers would be much appreciated, thanks.

EDIT: Nevermind, I found it. It was "Freed from Desire" by Gala.

Intake restriction reduces the power/torque output of the engine. Added mass puts more weight in the car (like success ballast). In certain applications you can create 2 or more "classes" using a single car by varying the intake restriction and/or added mass. For example, an unrestricted FZR could be considered a GT1 car. An FZR with 20% intake restriction could be considered a GT2 car.

If you go into the garage and start changing the intake restriction/added mass/added mass position sliders you should see the power/torque/total mass/weight distribution values updating live.

48mph. I dunno why, but for some reason even the BF1 won't go faster than this.

You won't be able to use the source audio with this method (without some trickery), but I assume you don't want the original audio in a timelapse.
  • Open first video in VirtualDub
  • Go to File -> Queue batch operation -> Save image sequence...
  • Pick a filename, output directory and output format
  • Hit OK.
  • Go to File -> Job control...
  • Highlight the above job and click the Start button, then wait for it to complete.
  • Repeat for second video
  • Drag-and-drop all the saved images into VirtualDub
  • Now continue editing like you were working with the video.

Quote from Davo :How do I check gpu temps? cpu temps are fine

Speccy or HWMonitor should display GPU temperatures. If it's not a temperature issue it could be another hardware issue (such as faulty CPU/memory/motherboard/PSU). You can test CPU stability using Prime95, memory stability using Memtest86+ and both CPU and memory using LinX.

On the issue of corrupted files, I'm not sure how they were corrupted (unless they were being written to or possibly open at the time of the crash(es)). Have you tried creating a second LFS installation and copying across files like your skins and setups?

Quote from scipy :What is this trickery?!?!?! What? A right turn?

Blasphemy.

One of the cars in the race was actually forced to pit early because turning both left and right was starving the fuel pick-ups in the tank. I lol'd

SuperSpeed RamDisk (desktop) works pretty well. Incidentally, if you're still using a 32-bit system you can use the 'extra' RAM as the Ram Disk (e.g. 8GB installed, 3.25GB available to Windows 32-bit -> remaining ~4.5 to Ram Disk).

Attached a couple of screenshots (the RAM in this system is nothing special, but obviously even lacklustre RAM is still several orders of magnitude better than hard drives).
