How is our fuel supply endless?

I play with some real life friends occasionally on "The Phreakz" server.

Quote from X-Ter :[off topic] (sort of)
Grand-Am is not really included in this thread (even though it deserves to be). Next upcoming event in the series is the "Six Hours of The Glen". It's available on SPEED and thus of course via the TVU player.

TV(U) Times:
11:00am EST (17:00 CET) Grand-Am
01:00pm EST (19:00 CET) break for F1 qual :doh:
02:30pm EST (20:30 CET) Grand-Am

Thanks for the info, will definitely watch it.

How about Savage? It's a little hard to get good at it with the steep learning curve, but the community is hilarious and always fun to play with.

A Neurosurgeon is definitely harder in the earning of a degree sense than an Engineer. It all depends on what you mean by harder and what type of doctor/engineer you were referring to.

They have all been making laptops for years so I don't think you would regret purchasing any of them. A Dell will probably end up cheaper and their customer service is ok compared to other companies as long as you can understand the Indian man on the other line. After about an hour on the phone they sent a worker to replace my mobo as it had been DOA and I had only selected the minimal warranty on the ~$500 computer.

This is what I came up with for only $1,699 Canadian. The Canadian site won't let me configure the other XPS models .



PS: Sorry for the cropping, just installed Vista-64 so I have no photo editing programs downloaded at the moment.

Quote from th84 :I would love to hear Scavier's stance on cruise servers. If they have commented at some point about them, could someone be so kind as to point me in that direction?

I am pretty sure Scawen enjoyed the fact that LFS was such a realistic racing simulator that it could be used to simulate "cruising" or city driving, though don't quote me on that as it is only what I can remember. If you guys can't handle a few threads with "stupid" insim suggestions a month, in which you only post hateful messages directed towards either the OP or cruising in general, then you need to open your horizons and think about others. Not everyone loves to race 24/7, and LFS can simulate an alternative such as cruising with friends and talking about whatever happens to come to mind. A place to relax for a change. I kind of sounded like a hippy there..

Quote from Jakg :Norton 360 is SHITE. Trust me.

I agree with you from personal experience. My parents refuse to drop Norton yet I am reinstalling it every month because it either decides not to start on startup or uses an infinite amount of ram until the low virtual memory message appears (memory leak). Now if they would just stop spending so much attention on making it look good and spend more on useful tools (not automatic online backups over a 1.5/0.3 connection) and stability, it would be a good program.

Quote from kirmy :i really do hope this is the last of them, all i see is CLC 32/32, LTC 32/32

stupid cruise servers, please go seomwhere else, to "cruise"

You could also use the new system recently put in to keep cruise servers from popping up in your server list instead of complaining about them on the forums.

I did some searching myself and this is the only thing that might be useful to you. There are so many unanswered threads on many forums with this topic it surprises me.

I saw Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay in theaters and it was great. I can't decide if Escape from Guantanamo Bay or Superbad is the funniest movie I have ever seen.

The only other thing I think you could try would be to get a voltage meter and check every connector to see if there is the stated amount of power flowing through each one. You could also find someone with a power supply known to work with the card and try it in your system. Your in a tough situation bud, hang in there.

I like how the description says the demo track is a fantasy track. Looks pretty similar to Lime Rock Park to me.

I'm surprised ATI is winning. I have a 8600GTS in this computer (AMD X2 2.4Ghz) and a 6600GT in the old 1.8Ghz P4 for LFS.

You don't even need to buy a computer. Look around, some people might have just upgraded from a PIII and will get rid of the old computer for almost nothing.

Quote from Nitrous13270 :I'd say get a new graphics card. Get the Nividia 8600 GT or above if you play games with very good graphics. The Nividia 6xxx series would do if you're just using it for LFS.

Read the topic first please, his case will not fit those cards.

Quote from Racer X NZ :The buildings were designed to take a 707 impact, similar weight and fuel, they clearly failed. If so, then why ????

They did not fail. They survived the impact. They stayed up for an hour before the steel became weak enough to start a chain reaction.

Google isn't helping at all. Maybe he mistyped something and meant "if steering rack is a manual..," but that makes about as much sense as the original.

And this might help you with the access cover.

The riddle posted in the first post is NOT clear enough to formulate a definite answer.

"This conveyer has a control system that tracks the planes speed and tunes the speed of the conveyer to be exactly the same (but in the opposite direction)."

The ending of this line states that the conveyor will be moving at the same speed the plane is, but relative to what?

It does not define if the plane's speed is measured from the conveyor, or from a relative point on the "ground" (the observer).

It depends if you are referring to the wheels traveling at the exact opposite velocity as the conveyor or the plane traveling at the exact opposite velocity as the conveyor.

"This conveyer has a control system that tracks the plane speed and tunes the speed of the conveyer to be exactly the same (but in the opposite direction)"

(I am referring to it as a treadmill here)

If you are talking about the wheels, then they would be rolling forward at 5mph while the treadmill goes in reverse at 5mph. (The plane doesn't move)

If you are talking about the plane moving forward at 5 mph while the treadmill goes in reverse at 5mph, than the plane would eventually run off the end of a limited treadmill. This would mean the wheels were actually spinning at 10mph.

If the first is true, than there would be no lift, if the second where true (at higher speeds of course), than there would be lift.
