I haven't tested it with autocross. It could be that autocross is difficult to support, because there is no predefined course along the track by which the car's progress can be measured.
But in any case, LRA should certainly not crash. Could you mail me the RAF file, so I can debug LRA?
LRA shows all setup data that is present in the RAF file. The rest of the setup data (caster, diff lock, tyre pressure) is not written to the RAF file by LFS.
If he just wanted to kill lots of people, then bombs and gas would be better (if planned well). He could even make a getaway, and watch himself become famous on TV and in newspapers.
But if his motive was revenge then bombs and gas would be useless, because he would not have seen his victims die before his own eyes. I'm just guessing of course, but I think he wanted pure, bloody revenge for injustice done to him. Think of it as a way to save his face. And suicide is sortof logical then, because it's the surest escape from being punished for his deeds (= humiliation, again).
For those who think that cases like these are new, unexplainable, a fault of modern society etc., read this Wikipedia article:
Steven Pinker also wrote about it in his book "How the Mind Works". Columbine and Virgina Tech were nothing new, and nothing mysterious, it seems.
I disagree. Nutcases will choose the weapon that does the most damage, and that is the gun. If they can't get hold of any then they could choose a knife, axe, or other means, but their untrained hands will make more victims with a gun.
SpyCatcher. (First-person shoot'em up, located in the Ferrari pits at night.)
Five million may seem like a lot of cash, but it's a tough job. You try to keep a straight face while saying that the game's cars handle just like the real thing.
No, there is no option to change the colour scheme. Personally, I don't like the black background of F1PerfView, so I never thought of making it configurable.
Can I say I just love your videos? There is always something unexpected and funny in it. Here it is the intro -- I fail to see how it links to the crash scenes that follow, but it still is a nice surprise/joke. Also the variety in camera angles makes it more than just a series of crashes.
Hmm, could be an idea for the next movie: a collection of mistakes where one driver ruined someone else's race, but not his own.
Don't worry. Life on earth has seen extinctions that are far worse than Gores darkest scenario. At the end of the Permian, more than 90% of all lifeforms died. But some species survived, inherited the Earth, and flourished. (Of course, mankind might perish, but that is another matter.)
Though I personally agree with you, others might argue that the majority does need convincing. And it seems like Gores propaganda has raised public awareness about environmental issues to heights that all the left-wing / alternative / green activists in the world could never achieve. OK, so Al told some white lies (not surprising, as he's been VP of the country that brought us spin-doctoring). But do the ends justify the means?
As the saying goes: when two elephants fight, it's the grass that suffers most.
You can, but only the ones that have a whopping big V8 under the hood. (Also very handy in those gigantic Yankee shopping malls. BTW, I heard that some even have banked turns. Left only, of course.)
As someone else already suggested: use mouse buttons for gearshifts, and keyboard keys for throttle/brake. I found it much easier. The downside: it's impossible to chat while driving.
Use cockpit view, with steering wheel and driver's arms displayed. That is a larger visual clue.
The fastest mouse drivers use tapping (for the throttle). If it still upsets the car, you could try to tweak the setup so that it has less power-on oversteer. Another thing to tweak is the button control rate option.
You could also lower the brake force: if it's less than the maximum, then you can start turning in while still braking (= trail braking, sort of), without locking up the wheels.
Mouse driving is a different art. (I have the reverse: I bought a wheel recently, and have trouble getting the laptimes that were normal when I drove with the mouse. It takes me a lot of re-learning.) That said, consider buying a wheel soon. Because once you have gotten used to the mouse, you may have trouble switching back to the wheel again, when the time comes.
I'd think your weak eye has to be practically blind before you notice. Besides, your brain also measures depth by other factors: relative size and movement of objects, and one object obscuring another.
You'll be amazed what the brain can do to correct poor vision. I once saw a film of an experiment where a guy wore special goggles that mirrored the image: it turned his world upside down. At first, the guy made all sorts of "funny" errors, But after a week he could see perfectly with his goggles.
Then do the reverse: turn the monitor's brightness down. It's the difference that is stressful to the eyes.
