I would have installed Gentoo on it, and used it for web developing stuff/samba file server/torrent client or something else useful. And then putted it away somewhere and just used SSH to admin it.

If it's a HD mediaplayer, it's quite strange it doesn't support mkv. See if there's a newer firmware for your player. Could be a bug that causes the problem.

There's lots of things that needs to be ironed out for hotlapping. Scawen himself admitted a while ago that the hotlapping part has been neglected far too long, and that he was meaning to work more on it.

You can always do the same wallriding, and leave a nice little message like: "Wallriding is bad for your health. Remove your cheating lap and do it fairly, and I will do the same."

Quote from Mr. Adrie :Just discovered something with driver version 178.24. If I start LFS then framerate is very low. If I go to the LFS graphics options, switch from 4x antialiasing to no antialiasing and then back to 4x antialiasing, then framerate is normal again. Unfortunately I have to repeat this sequence everytime I start LFS.

What if when you start LFS, then switch to window mode (shift-f4), and back to fullscreen again? Does the framerate go normal again then?

Bah, you're all silly. Of course you can't hear how it sounds when you speak, cause it's the normal way of speaking for you. So the danish don't hear that they have a potato in their throat, and the Norwegians/Swedes don't hear that they are singing the words. Although the singing stuff is mostly coming from the people living in the south of Norway. Up in the northern part we have a different dialect, and doesn't sound like that at all - I think... Kinda like it is between English and Scottish I guess.

Quote from mrodgers :I think my problem would mainly be trying to follow the taxi directives around the airports. I have trouble making out the signs for the taxi ways. I would like to jump into a session just to observe sometime.

Good idea. You can learn a lot from just observing and listening to whats going on. Most of the die hard simmers do have airport and landing/takeoff maps though, which they use when planning their flights according to what kind of weather/winds it is.

Quote from mrodgers :I went as far as downloading everything needed for VATSIM. I'm still weirded out about talking on voicecoms. Besides that, when I'm on the computer, my daughters are asleep and the computer is in the basement below their bedrooms with virtually no sound insulation between me and their rooms other than the wood floor above.

Headset and communicating with text commands kinda works.

Quote from Gnomie :Wow, dude.. my uncle is in exactly the same situation..!:twirl: he always wanted to be a pilot, but he lost his eye in an accident when he was a kid. He hasn't built a cockpit though, but he does play flightsims quite a lot. Plus, he's from Northern Norway too.

Wouldn't surprise me if they know each other then. Especially if your uncle is also flying online on Vatsim.

Quote from SCORacer :737NG (Boeing)

That's correct.

Quote from chanoman315 :W-O-W Arco, give me that now!

If I did he would have killed me.

Quote from V3NOMOUS :Holy hell is all I gotta say No Offence to your Uncle but maybe hes taken that a little to far? :S Next minute he will be building the actual Plane

Nah, lot's of people build their own flight sim cockpits. My uncle has been interested in airplanes his whole life, and if it hadn't been for a car accident in his youth, where he lost an eye, he probably would have been a real pilot now.

Btw, took a couple movies of it too. Bad quality since it was with my cell phone, but anyway...
