Gosh, I wish I had a computer in the kitchen to leave myself logged in to!

Some slippers, and a dildo, so if she doesn't like the slippers, she can go f**k herself.

recently bought some stan's flow ZTR crest rims (naice) and i dont really know anything about tubeless. do i just need the super tight rim tape and a valve and no sealant because they are tubeless ready?
Rim only I take it? You'll need the stans tubeless rim tape and yes it needs to be pretty tight on there. Definitely run latex (stans stuff is great) and you'll be forever happy.
I've found the Continental Barons to be pretty excellent but are expensive if you want the proper UST ones, but i've been running the cheap cheap ones at 17 quid a pop at retail and they've been fine. My folding Rubber Queens had a lot of trouble running true with my Flows so I would either go UST or cheap wired.

However many years on - just had it's first ride in about 18 months(?), fresh bleed and set up and it's rockin'.
Lil bit tatty but ah well.

Ride your bike really really hard.

Not much to speak of in msconfig, disabled a few things and will see how it goes but i do remember running it in safemode with no joy still. How would i sort the static ip business?
Yeah I'm careful with shit toolbars etc, I absolutely hate them,
I've had the problem since the start just before christmas.
Cheers.

Yeah sounds about right, just don't have an install disc, nor a dvd to burn one to ;/

For an XC bike Continental Mountain King IIs are great, even better in Black Chilli folding with Pro-tection.

No programs work with the internet. It always seems to refuse a connection etc. It's like there's a very strict firewall that I can't switch off.
Sorry forgot to mention again (cos I typed up a better explained post but accidently deleted it) that i've disabled all firewalls and anti virus software.

Hello guys, nice to see some old forumfaces. How have you all been?
So I bought an Acer Aspire V3-531 running windows 7 home and nothing seems to work, just seems like some twatty firewall jobsworth program or setting is getting in the way. Nothing works with the internet, just IE (wank). Spotify, Skype (already installed with this OS), nothing works. It's really annoying.
Have obviously googled it with one or two people having the same problem but nothing helped.
You guys are amazing so thanks in advance.
Considering Ubuntu but it sounds like a faf.
Fatty.

I like to pop up every once a year or so.
Not entirely sure why I'm not a senior yet though.

I hope you wiped it off after.

New cheap bike, bought in hope that my ti hardtail would sell asap... It's on ebay now so everyone go buy it!
And my other mtb for good measure

CLS has it. Sektors are the new pike/revelations so they're great. U turn is awesome, coil is plush and these days not too heavy. Go for 20mm if you can because it'll be much stiffer, not a pain in the arse either because maxles are like a qr lever. I've got lyriks on my hucker which might be too much, theyre 115 to 160mm travel with a compression adjuster which almost locks out but it'll blow through. I wouldn't have remote lock out, because it sucks! Suntour forks make Marzocchi forks anyway so if you really want budget maybe suntour but they won't be very technical.

They're bladders that they use to inflate inside the tubes to get the shape... Got 2 of those frames at my shop atm

All the servicing gets done in my LBS, by me, because i work there

Same as last year, 1680x1050.

Worst. Idea. Ever.
Take the piss out of my manager at least thrice a week for having them on his Whyte.

It's a case of paying the network it's locked to about 10 quid then...
-
If you wanna jailbreak it you can get ultrasn0w which is the unlocker, through the cydia store... Usually works!

From the looks of things, it looks like it's gonna need a lot of work too in terms of making it worthy of some dh (no cheap triple chainset) and also some servicing. Forks look like they've worn away, might just be the anodising but could be corrosion or bad wear... Chain looks pretty ropey and yeah i would expect other bits to be up with it. Tread carefully i'd say.

So i picked up a pretty good 32" philips lcd tv (from my girlfriends dad, for a good price), which i now have my computer connected up to, along side my xbox. But basically, flickering is quite frequent on 60hz, but i don't seem to be able to put any more hz into it on my nvidia control pannel. Anything i can do to improve things? It's ok with most things apart from web pages and msn etc, seems to be when there's a lot of white... Using a GeForce FX 5500, which i know is pretty basic but yeah... I have a 6800 (i think) in my old computer but not sure if i can just switch them over?

If the marks around the travel printing are scratches, they're pretty f**ked. That'll ruin the seals and will end up just bad. Also converting to air completely is generally a no no as the coil spring would have scratched the internal wall of the stanchion and wouldn't allow the air shaft/seal to seal properly.
