  1. Both my desktop and my xbox are connected by wire, because wireless is seriously shit, especially if there's anything as much as a wall in the way. You may not notice much of a difference if the router is sitting on top of the PS3, but for the sake of $0.50 of RJ45 you may as well hook it up.
  2. What's brown and sticky? A stick!
  3. Not a chance you're going to get a lion as a pet
  4. That's the kind of food I'd eat without meaning to lose weight. If you want to ditch the love handles, you need to ditch some food. Breakfast, for example, is breakfast for two. Cut out the bagel, lose that half sandwich at lunch etc. I guess I'm trying to say that you're going to have to make a concious effort to lose weight. It definitely won't come by eating more!
  5. After another play and a bit of spark plug modification, a spark was identified and my dad ended up getting it to a garage. Probably the best call, since it needed two new tyres anyway. But it wouldn't start because petrol deposits had solidified in the bottom of the tank, fuel tap, carb etc. So it turns out I didn't check the fuel properly. Also the clutch plates had stuck together, so a new clutch is on order. So a lot of hassle due to complete negligence of basic maintenance. Lesson learnt.
  6. Cheers mate. I can do the baiscs - fuel/spark. But I've never really had to deal with the HT lead or distributor etc. From what you've said, the HT lead will probably need to be replaced (big moulded rubber shroud + casing). Oh well, it will keep me busy.
  7. I'm trying to get a DT125 up and running again after it's been sitting in the garage for a few years but the little bugger won't start! The battery (obviously) went on charge and now lights everything up and seems to be working to an ok standard and I've got a replacement spark plug, but it doesn't seem to be sparking. I have no idea what to look at next and how to test it. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
  8. After reading this as "Ejector Seats" - the above post was rather boring.
  9. I think that's a given. But yeah, a pretty shit day, but certainly not the worst you could have, not by a long shot. The only thing lost is a laptop - no big deal. Just look forward to tomorrow. At least the power will be on
  10. Got no sleep Power ran out Tried to place UPS shipping orders without power by using backup power systems. Failed miserably Broke laptop Snapped cables Nothing posted today.
  11. You want to do d-bol but you're not going to the gym and you don't want to put on muscle? You're 9.5 stone! Just squat and f**king eat something? Edit: Just read the rest of your post. Really, I doubt you'll see any significant change in a month - especially if you're not changing your diet. Steroids don't magic up protein and calories, the only thing that does is extra food intake.
  12. Fuuuark. Pretty sick detailing and finish on those. That RX-7 looks almost real. I bet you could get people(women) thinking it's your real car on fb.
  13. What's the deal with painting them? Is best to paint before or after assembly? I can remember making a few planes and a car when I was younger, but never got around to changing them from being grey And I've got a Tiger tank at home waiting to be put together, but I don't really have the right equipment at the moment. Are there any decent starter kits with a sharp knife, paint brush etc?
  14. I thought we'd already established that chocolate wasn't as dangerous as a car?
  15. There's certain moments in life where I kinda wish I'd done some work as soon as I got it. Oh well, only 1 lab report, 1 set of questions and last minute revision/learning to do before 11am. Plenty of time. I swear I heard someone tell me uni is a skive. Lying b*****d.
  16. No, that makes sense. According to environmental challenges in farm management (catchy title, hey?) milk is listed a big time oxygen demander. And I can get the point there's nothing you can really use to clean up milk, apart from soak the shit out of the area to hopefully dilute it down. I was going to point to DDT as an example of something that would be worse, but it's banned, so wouldn't really be found in tankers on the road.
  17. Surely chemical spill would be more harmful than milk? Like chlorine or bromine?
  18. Thing is with the abs, just as with the calves and to some extent, your forearms, it's a muscle group that is always in use, and for most people can be trained more intensely than other major muscle groups because the abs and calves recover quite quickly. One example of this is when you see a split routine with several ab sessions in it; because they can be hit hard.
  19. The thing about infinite is that it never ends, so 0.333...=1/3
  20. Well, it's been a long time since my last physics lessson. I might have forgotten another 6 zeroes :$ I've been on/off thinking about the bet on red situation, and I figured that most people would back out and start betting in a more traditional manner after their 4th straight loss, mostly due to the shitload® of money you need to bet. Even if you did continue to the first win in eight, you'd have a bet a lot for little reward. In terms of numbers though, the 0 obviously balances out the odds in the casinos favour in a macro scale.
  21. The speed of light does change in different mediums, just as the speed of sound does. The quoted c=300ms^-1 is for light travelling through a vacuum. But yes, I'm pretty sure Einstein got himself a lovely looking Nobel prize in proving the wave-particle duality of light.
  22. I've heard that before, but forgot just how frustrating it was to listen to. I am so headf**ked by this stupidity.
