Great, FF4 is just as memory hungry as ever and in their wisdom have turned off the status bar. I quite like having a status bar for GMail notifiers and the like. >.<
[edit: It also appears to have random CPU hogging spikes and lag out on start up. Nice improvement, they have made it more unbearable. Think I will have to find something else.]
[edit2: Turns out the status bar is now called the "ADD-ON BAR".]

I run adblock+, gmail notifier, Flagfox and Web Developer. I regularly go through and delete bookmarks too. Firefox is just a massive resource hog. Even for light usage 125MB is more than the competition.
Because I run my laptop a lot which only has 1GB of RAM and Firefox will quickly eat up 5-600MB just by going to BBC News and LFS Forums. Right now (just opened the browser) it is hovering at 250MB. But by navigating a few pages deep the "feature" that is storing pages to memory means Firefox is hanging like a bitch.
Have they got rid of the horrible memory problems features that plagued previous versions?
If you're working on jacks, it'll take a bit longer because jacks always make work take longer, if you're on a 4 or 2 poster it makes it a quick and easy job. The book time for the clutch kit on a MX5 is 3 hours start to finish. But the book times are always generous towards the mechanic.
When you're working at a main dealer or an approved garage you can charge up to the book time in labour but not over, so if you finish in 2 you can still charge for 3. So it pays to finish as quickly as possible.

Most of the bits you needed doing were 1-2 hours jobs. If they had set a day aside to complete the work, it would take just one working day to complete. So finishing it in a couple of weeks using free time is about right.
How is that political correctness? You ****ing idiot.
ITV have been cutting up movies for years, scenes that don't aide the plot are cut out so they can squeeze in adverts and a fake sex scene really doesn't help the plot now does it?

I have budget tyres (Nexen/Nexus?) fitted to my van, all that means is I drive to the tyres, as with all tyres they are rubbish on a greasy road and will aquaplane on small amounts of standing water, so I will adjust my driving to suit the tyres. The tyres I used to rock were a bit more expensive (Bridgestone), but performed a lot better in the wet, so if I don't go the way of wider wheels in the next few months, I'll throw Bridgestones back on when the current set are used up.
But if you push and push while knowing your tyres are rubbish in the conditions, then you're a ****ing idiot.
True, but the point remains, it is nothing more than tin and rubber, why get so worked up about it? It isn't like it is anything special. Just a mass produced Audi with 100k price tag. Big deal. Some people ruin their cars by never driving them, some by coating it in glue and crashing into Halfords.
And as for the remarks about someone working hard to buy that luxury car, some people work hard just to buy a 7k piece of Korean rubbishness. At the end of the day it is still just a car and not even a car with any sort of character, it is too reliable and too German for that.
Why? Because a man with too much money and a lot of anger ruins his car? Would you care as much if it was a Ford Focus? No? Then why care because it is a Lambo? It is only rubber and tin, but an artificially inflated price tag because the manufacture has decided their cars are worth that much.
That is a good protest, I saw it on the news yesterday. Better than writing an angry letter, but it also shows the world how much disposable income the elite in China have. Also shows that communism will never work because it proves the people are not equal.
Hmm, I suppose there is some truth in that. Vibrations can undo bolts, so I suspect they can easily break up turd so it makes it way down the intestine/bowls.
Must be why chavs talk so much shit about their cars, all of that bass is making it spew out of every orifice.

When I lived down south I maybe did 10 miles a week, rarely had the need to drive because everything I needed was within a casual walking distance. 2 miles was the furthest I ever had to walk, so why drive and end up parking just as far away and walking that distance anyway, but paying for the privilege.
Since moving up here I am easily knocking up 2k a month and am yet to bump into anything or anyone. I did have a close call when a tourist pulled out on me and one when my brakes refused to work (that was scary). But I've held my licence for some years now and am yet to bin a car or get any points.
That is brown noise. Requires a ludicrous amount of bass to endue bowl movement though.

It is hard to tell with kids today. One of the guys I know from college has only had his licence for 12 months and in that time he has binned 6 cars. The first happened in the first 12 hours of having his licence.
To be fair speeding and going to fast for the roads are very different. Legally I can do 60mph from my back door to work. But only 65% of those roads are safe to do 60mph on when it is dry and clear. When it is wet that drops to around 55%, throw in mud and it is down to 45%.
I am perfectly within the law to do 60mph, but the only people who do that are looking to die young. For the most part you're brave for leaving 30mph.
You have to drive to what the road allows. Speed limits are not targets.
Feel I should mention that you do not automatically lose your licence if you crash in your two year probationary period. That is total bullshit. All that two year probation means is you get half of the points as a normal licence holder. If you lost your licence through crashing then it was because the BiB decided that your driving was reckless/dangerous so deemed the addition of points on your licence.
And you won't get them unless the BiB saw your driving or you took someone else out in the process. Otherwise you just get hit with recovery fees and insurance premium hikes.
Which means you're not telling the whole truth about your crash.

He is from New Brunswick, which makes him the French equivalent of a Newfie.
A garage round here has a lovely example of a 2.0T 4x4 Cavalier. But they are leaving it to get ruined by the elements. The tyres have gone flat/started to rot, some idiot has knocked off the passenger side wing mirror, but the rest is perfect and they won't sell it.

I think he was trying to say you don't have any experience to base your advice on.
We are on the Internet, all people do here is throw abuse at each other.
This is so wrong, but I still lol'd.
They all have the same IB5 gearbox, my van has that box, but it is the gearing inside which is different.
What cars have you driven?
As with all diesels first gear is ludicrously short, because it is a rolling gear. Once you get moving you're supposed to slip it into second. When in an unladen vehicle it seems pointless, but once some weight is in the back it means you don't torture the clutch.
