Quote from tinvek :check the read me file ( i didn't till i was told )

you need to download the latest vesion of direct x 9 from microsoft


works fine then

Stupid idiots keep updating DirectX without upping the revision number. Afaik you can't even know which months DX version you have. You loose backwards compatibility->Change version number. It's not that difficult.
And then there's the too old DX GPU thing, games usually just crash without telling you have obsolete hardware. Idiots the programmers all of them.

Start->all programs->accessories->windows explorer (or just winkey+E): type ftp://address or ftp://user:pass@address

To make a shortcut on your desktop use "explorer ftp://address" as the shortcut location. just ftp://... will start your browser or whatever is the default program for ftp.

Don't know how good of a solution it is - but working one nevertheless. On the plus side, the learning curve is nonexistent, even copy&paste works etc.

Nope, 4chan doesn't allow hotlinkinking and also regularly deletes their files or changes the url so they are 404. The link is still in the post source http://cgi.4chan.org/hc/src/1224272359792.jpg

Quote from GrIp DrIvEr :
  • the most expensive speeding ticket ever recorded was made by a Koenigsegg CC8S in Texas, US.

That might the fastest ticket ever, but the most expensive speeding ticket was given in Helsinki, Finland to Jussi Salonoja for driving too fast in the city centre ... ready? 170 000 euros / $216,900

Quote from flymike91 :In the 1980's only wealthy wall street yuppies had cell phones. Today almost everyone has a cell phone, from the richest men the the poorest men.

You are forgetting that then cells phones were out of reach of the "poor". In Finland when the NMT450 came operational in the early 80's, the phones went for something like 6000€. Now you can have one even for 30€.
Quote :Things get better and better for the lower class

Not always, stuff just get cheaper so the poor can afford them too.

Quote from DHRammstein :You simply don't understand how quickly I can accelerate and stop. Besides, it's my choice,

A,You don't simpy undestarnd how quickly you can stop - enough to kill you and anyone you crash into.

B,If you do it it anywhere else but a designated area, it's not only your choice, you're also making the choise for the man across the table.

Quote from DHRammstein :Dude why would pedestriants be nearly 40 miles from anywhere on a highway,

I have no effin idea, but some day they will be, maybe not when it's your turn, before or after you, or then it might just be you.

Quote from DHRammstein :So, let me guess, you've never broken the law?

I have, countless times, will do so in the future. But before doing so I try to think of the risks, is this a residential road, an empty road, is the time of day so that there are no traffic/children going to home from school, is it the time of day of low human traffic but still low on animal traffic?

Quote from Klutch :Yeah, pretty much this.

If the road is deserted i don't really see the harm in having a bit of fun, only person you'll hurt is yourself is something goes wrong, and it was your choice to do so.

Ok, I drive occasionally bit too fast than the limits permits on quiet windy roads or roads in general......... But think of a corner/chicane/anything on public roads you'd have bit too much fun and then things go only tiny bit wrong, I mean no crash or offroad experiences... Then think if a child was somewhere in there in the middle of the road without a luminous/flashing badges, would you have managed to stop your vehicle in time?

Not too long ago, I was driving home from a gig through a windy road (the one I like much more than the more direct alternative full of gatsos) I had a almost a near-miss with a cat which I saw a kilometer away thanks to high-beams I often have on on dark areas even if the road has streetlights.


In other words, like my driving instructor chasten me driving back from my passed driving test, driving too fast, you need to be able to stop in the stretch of road you can see.

Quote from wark :You got it backwards. Do you think a 19th century black slave would be criticized today for having called his white oppressors names?

No: having the appropriate personal and historical context would afford him the right to speak that way.

What we have is an historical individual who was personally affected by that small group of people he made reference to.

When the day you are abused the way they were comes, then you can invent your own derogatory terminology. Just don't use it on anyone who didn't senselessly torture you.

My point was how can a president-candidate call some one names while calling names, African-American in particular, is so huge taboo in the US. Even this US made forum has common slurs denoting a black man censored.

On the other hand, if you read the quote by the letter; "I hate the gooks, I will hate them as long as I live." as opposed to 'I hate those gooks (his captors), I will hate them as long as I live.' there's a huge difference. But then again McCain never has been very good with words.

Quote from e2mustang :As i know the americans the real ones,they think the same way,that a real american should be a president.im just trying to say that.

You mean only a Navajo, Apache, Inca or any other of the real Americans?




Or, do you mean anyone born in the US? Last time I checked Hawaii where Obama was born is part of the US.

Quote from flymike91 :Please explain to me what Mccain has said that makes you think he is a racist? Remember when you answer that his daughter is adopted from Bangladesh. Please, I'd be delighted to know...

Quote :"I hate the gooks, I will hate them as long as I live."

Yeah, there's mitigating factors behind it, but still if he'd call anyone - no matter how evil - a 'nígger' would he get away with it? On the last debate he only barely didn't say that, he called Obama 'that one'.

IF McCain/Palin would win, guess who would most likely be the one with the a-bomb codes before McCain's term is up? The even worse religulous-bigot who among other wacky things, thinks it's appropriate to make rape victims pay for their rapekits*
I know: "Palin spokeswoman Maria Cornella told...that Palin, “does not believe, nor has ever believed, that rape victims should have to pay for an evidence-gathering test.” Read this bit again "evidence-gathering test". The thing is, the rapekit also includes abortion pills. There's your catch, she vehemently opposes abortion even in the cases of rape and incest

Quote from chanoman315 :Police should enter the building, no matter if there are hostages, we all know this kind of people kill everyone, even hostages.. they dont trade

Really? Remember Moscow theater siege? Chechnyan rebels killed 2 people, Russian special forces killed 129 people gassing the theater and hindered the aftermath rescue efforts by not telling medical personnel what gas they used there by possibly killing even more people.

The very rare occasion I have a dream, which I remember when I wake up, I'm having a ehm good time in the dream and wake up before the dream ends
What started as a very nice dream, always ends up as a nightmare (I guess that doesn't fit in the general definition of a nightmare... but anyway). Not exactly scary, but infuriatingly annoying


What actually was a nightmare, I had when I was about 5. In the dream me and my mother were somewhere running errands and my little sister was home alone. When we came back we found the driveway full of ambulances and fire engines and our home burnt. It actually came true 5 years later, luckily my sister ran to the neighbors

Nokia N82 that's more instant than some proggie on a pc



Seriously, I have skype account, but it's not installed atm. For some reason I can't remember anymore I have MSN just sitting there on my craptop. Also a 7 digit ICQ account from waayyback, which I can't even remember when I last used it. Should prolly also install Irssi so I can go idle in #liveforspeed again.

Quote :Do not have any other gods before me.

4 You shall not make for yourself an idol, whether in the form of anything that is in heaven above, or that is on the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.

Quote from jayhawk :I have found on this forum (and of all the forums I visit, this one is the WORST) that God or Jesus is ridiculed, made fun of or slandered...yet the people who have faith in God never do the same to the ones who mock religion.

Oh they don't huh? . And every poster on a wall or wacko in the town claiming I'll go o hell because my lack of belief or working on sundays or what ever. I consider that mocking me.

Quote :Also, being that most people are inherently cowards, they will post LOL Jesus pictures, but never of anything mocking Islam or Jusaism.

Never?


Islam vs Christianity Granted, Carell and Colber' mocks equally both
