as it's a compromise between the perfect from for space travel (a ball, as it's got the best structural attributes) and aerodynamics...
On the video: either he uses a very ancient digital camcorder without nightmode which has less resolution than ordinary phone cams, or it's a fake.
The grainy picture could also be due to amount of insane digital zoom, but for that, the picture is too static for handheld operation, but too wiggly for a stand, further indicating a fake.
And lastly, while I am quite sure that in the vast spaces of the universe there are other life forms, I highly doubt that they would visit us. Not only do the distances cause nigh unsolvable problems, but alone to find an inhabited planet among the myriads of barren rocks and gas-bulbs is quite a challange.
On a sidenote: what would aliens need a cow for?

I tried the demo, it's actually the best diablo clone I have ever played. Still, I won't buy it because of one massive flaw: NO MULTIPLAYER. Honestly, that was where most of the fun lies with those games.
I play since '89, so too much games to list them here.

That's actually quite similar to the problem of using ABS on very slippery roads, like ice or snow: as the system trys to prevent the wheel from locking up, it would apply only negligable braking force.
That's why ABS is a very dangerous thing in winter.
Tom Anderson is the founder of myspace, a popular social networking site. Zuckerberg invented facebook, which is more popular.
Oh my god, the hypocrisy in here makes me more sick than those videos. Honestly, if you think it's okay to kill someone for mistreating an animal, you need to grow a whole lot of additional brain and sense. Of course it's not okay to mistreat animals, and it should be punished. But not in a way that's ethically worse than the original wrong.
Also, inhumane treatment of animals isn't something exclusively limited to the chinese. Animals still get abused in every culture in this world. Yes, even in YOUR one. So no need to get all arrogant and thinking YOU have any moral high ground over anyone else.
If you don't like animals to be mistreated, then go vegan, because any animal based product, ranging from honey to leather shoes cannot be produced without some form of animal abuse, with varying severity.
If you find those videos too sickening to bear, just visit your next slaughterhouse. I am sure you will find that experience also very disturbing: the brutal treatment they get from the truck to the area where they wait for death. Pigs witnessing and fully realising the killing of other pigs until it's their turn. The concussing shot on cows heads not knocking it out, so it's throat get's cut while it's concious. Et cetera.
Or the preparation of meals with live animals, like crabs, lobster, snails...
As a disclaimer: I am not vegan, or even vegetarian, I do buy and use animal products. I just realize that I don't live in fairy land where all the animals give me the goods I need in their own free will.

Funnily, that exact same thing happened to the german language 13 years ago...
The flag's belgian...
That idea is around for a long time, and I still agree.

Doesn't even have to be illegal employment. Just let them work as offcially declared "freelancers" and you pretty much circumvent all the wage and social regulations completely legally.
Not an advice to be heeded.
But as becky said, it boils down to trust to use a rubber or not.
not a pretty sight, and not a funny one. Even more sickening that the pic itself are persons who find that stuff to laugh at.
Of course there's nothing wrong with a little bit of schadenfreude, but as soon as someone is seriously hurt, the fun stops.

I might be wrong, but don't the existing tracks only show an audience during races, but empty seats during practice runs?
Athena Sword was "just" and addon to Ravenshield... but yeah, everything after that that wears the Tom Clancy Tag is pretty much shit, except the Splinter Cell games.
I think it's abysmally bad. ArmA 2 is just so much better. Doesn't deserve the name "Operation Flashpoint" at all.
It also reminds me of the downfall of all once good tactical FPS games, like Ghost Recon, which got the really bad GRAW follow ups.Or Rainbow Six, which was decent up until Ravenshield, but then got crap with Lockdown and the Vegas series. The only merit of the latter games was that they made the GRAW series look decent in comparison.

Kegetys made a Ghost car mod a while back. Don't know if it's still compatible though: http://www.kegetys.net/lfs/
and the XFR is sequential only. Don't know if there are mods or scripts out there to change that.

Shouldn't that be in the Off Topic section?
On Topic: I couldn't care less if anyone drinks while driving in LfS. But as the OP is American: With your weak watery mainstream beers over there, due to the neccessary intake needed to cause an effect, I guess it would be more of a problem having to go take a leak too often to race properly rather than getting too drunk to controll a vehicle.

Ah, so "car2plane" is a kind of twisted "nuspeek" version of "car turns into a plane"...
I thought it was some kind of exotic error message, addressing an error on the second plane of a car, or on a plane of the second car or whatever.
But yeah, the bug is known and on the "to fix" list. I think this thread can be closed now.
Depends. A prefab house is certainly assembled, as the whole thing already is done and just has to be put together.
Using traditional methods, the final product isn't set and prone to chnage during bulding, thuis you build it.
Er... because finland is basically a pancake?
That's actually a nice idea.
Now I don't know how complex such a system would be, but if we think it further, it would even be possible to do specific content licences, like "Road Cars", "Single Seaters", "GT", or even single car purchases.
With micropayments being the trend today, I guess it could generate income if people could only buy and pay for the content they want...
But they're not actually building it, but merely assembling it... Not that it isn't a feat in itself, but I rather thought that someone was really building such a vehicle from scratch, so I was actually somewhat disappointed by the still awesome video.
Oh allright, that's the drink.
But Gekkibi, how can you fins afford to get drunk? The prices are insane in Finland.

Just watched Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Hero, House of Flying Daggers and Kung Fu Panda in a marathon weekend session. Enjoyed all four of them, allthough The last one was the only one I hadn't seen until now.
