Someone on the forums ( BMWM3GTR ) posted, and insulted me about.something. Now I look bad

Don't worry, your opponent only made a total fool of himself in that posting.
Tip of the day: don't try to match his level of immaturity.

Quote from Linsen :

Do you plan to implement showing of g-forces in a later version?

Yes, it's high up on my ToDo list.

New version (0.3) has been added to the first post.

I am sorry, but thats total BS

Thank you for the constructive remark.

just because there is a third party, external app to do something that should already be in the sim, there is no reason not to put it in the sim.

Yes, there is a reason: it takes time to make it, so other features will be postponed or even cancelled. I'd much rather that Scawen 'opens up' LFS so it interacts nicely with add-on apps, and concentrates on core features.

Not because it isn't a good idea, but IMHO this stuff should be left to external add-ons. Browse For Speed does a nice job, and Mates@Track does something similar, IIRC. In this way, the various wishes can be realized faster than if it would be somewhere on Scawen's list.

However, the integration isn't perfect: when you want to connect to a certain host, BFS needs to start LFS anew. There is no way to make LFS connect to a host when it's already running.

I've been wondering who this "Alan Smithee" is who takes part in the STCC...

The good thing about the Global Warming frenzy is that it detracts our attention from the Islamic Terrorists frenzy.

Prediction: In 2 years, a court will find Al Gore guilty of causing the climate change, on grounds of (a) being an American, (b) having loads of frequent flyer miles, (c) making a film that made people realize that climate change really exists.

In a way, that vid reminds me of the old phrase "This day is the first day of the rest of your life". At first sight it looks impressive and thought-inspiring, but when you think about it some more, you find that it's utter BS. You can prove anything with statistics, especially if you use loads of it.

For many species, interbreeding of close relatives is risky. That's why evolution created an inhibition: individuals won't mate with the ones they grew up with. In humans, this inhibition grew into a taboo. So, if you're digusted when reading about this couple, you know why.

Note that the inhibition only works if you come from the same family. You don't need to share any genes, you need to share history. The couple in the news item did not grow up together, so they felt free to fall in love.

Quote from nihil :

Frankly, I'm very happy that my lifespan, or even my right to a chance at life, isn't decided by simracers on an internet forum.

Ditto.
