  1. A friend of mine slipped and fell from the path he had walked every morning for 15 years.....
  2. http://wimp.com/suitdemo/ Must. Do.
  3. ..wish I could make videos half as good as that..
  4. take 1 ridiculously overpowered engine, add razor blades, then arm it to the teeth and give it an angry pilot trained to kill....... of course its gunna look mean standing still
  5. -shrugs- These settings have supported "auto" modes for me for years now across multiple hardware and operating systems. YMMV I suppose.
  6. GPU switching is automatic. Forcing it to the more powerful GPU does nothing except increase base-line power consumption. Stick 16 SLI nvidia chips in a desktop and no one cares. Stick two slightly different chips in a laptop and it's rocket science.
  7. http://itunes.apple.com/au/app/wind-tunnel/id381971296?mt=8
  8. AirflowPad tiny homepage and related blog: http://blog.physik.de/?page_id=585&lang=en
  9. For the grand total of about $9 you can have some wind tunnel toys on your device in seconds. Check it out: Wind Tunnel: $2.50 http://itunes.apple.com/au/app/wind-tunnel/id381971296?mt=8 and: AirFlowPad: $5.99 http://itunes.apple.com/au/app/airflowpad/id392507242?mt=8 If you have an iDevice you have no excuse not to own these toys.
  10. ...didn't we do this already? I'm confused.
  11. No... The trick with the others is putting the GPS unit into simulation mode as well as connecting a cable. HTH!
  12. Aviation standard time is ZULU. Use it. Everyone else can work out THEIR OWN offset.
  13. +1 kesomir. Buying genuine Intel also means that you don't get caught out with weird edge case compatibility with things like Linux Kernels and stuff too. I have various VIA/AMD systems around that need special flavours of kernels to boot, or can't run things like OpenDarwin. You might save $50 now, but it'll annoy you for the entire life of the hardware.
  14. Population; Australia: 21 million. California: 36 million.
  15. ...go go-karting.
  16. Tweaked to fix videos.
  17. Shows a lot of promise but reminds me far too much of this: The other thing is that in Outerra the whole world seems to be pine trees and flat grass.
  18. There is a Common Shape Library or CSL for short. It can sort of half work, but it's not perfect, and you need a wide variety installed. Actually creating and installing them is a black art, no idea if or where any of the file formats or install locations are documented. You will always have CoG alignment issues too, other sim clients will always show up with wheels off the ground or sunk or w/ever.
  19. XSB is greedy about its use of AI aircraft, this has a long and obscure history. Bottom line. If you want to do anything with the AI aircraft REMOVE XSB from your plugins folder. Disabling in-sim isn't enough, you need to stop it loading.
  20. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Best_selling_music_artists I win, by a factor of two. Next.
  21. ..not really, Madonna is a super star, any way you want to slice it. Bon Jovi is a has been. Credit where credit is due, and Madonna definitely deserves it over BJ.
  22. sweet vid Simon, right to the last... makes me want a big screen and beer on tap... nice work.
