I was busy staring at your chest. :naughty: The point is valid. I saw the link above, and can easily see both good and bad aspects to such a prospect (although, admittedly, more bad...). We are at the precipous of serious change right now. Who is going to step up and stop the dangerous acts and steers us in the right direction? The only person for whom I can account is myself, but no human is an island unto themself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffy Posted March 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 may i suggest a that a Koeninsegg CCX would beat the living crap out of Carrera GT in every test?Yes, but few people have the driving skills necessary to even get either one of them out of second gear... My family had way too many cars when I was a kid (LA phenomenon...), and I learned to drive in a Carrera and a Shelby GT350: as you guys like to say, its not the meat, its the motion (especially in Now's case, since he obviously has so little to work with! :umno: ) Vrrroooom, :naughty:Buffy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexander Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 lol buffy, i drive anything that has wheels if you were hinting that i wont be able to get the car out of 2nd gear :umno:me and a friend of mine test drove a lexus se a few months back, it was hard to keep the car under 80 in a 35 through turns, and i got it to 125 in a 25, so pbttt :naughty:and if you are wondering about my credentials, i stunt 2 and 4 wheel things (eventually post some pics or something) and drift (usually snow drift, curvy backroads...) (pictures of this i wont post cuz last time when we were out for 3 hours, was probably the last snow storm of the year, so wont get to do that again anytime soon) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InfiniteNow Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 I had a 2000 Pontiac Trans Am with a WS6 package, Ram Air forced induction, Borla racing exhaust and Eibach racing springs... had it up to 145 four times... with the top down! Anyway, got rid of that POS and got me a Lexus IS... love it. As Alexander mentioned, nice going around 35 mph turns going 80... vroom indeed. :naughty: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexander Posted March 9, 2006 Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 well, it wasnt my car, so i didnt want to push it, the only thing that car had done was 19 inch racing rims with toyo low profiles, the problem is that the entire knight we could not even get sound out of the tires, i swear i did a 0 to 60 test, under 5 sec, and still no sound, no tire spinnage... crazy... Buffy, I also watched an episode of True Life 2 years ago, a stunting special, and my friend from connmen went to florida the week they were taping it and rode with one of the groups taped, proble was that he taught them some stuff he was doing, and i think not to ruin the spirit they edited him out.... :naughty: No i did not find out about Koeninsegg from top gear if you are wondering...

GAHD Posted March 9, 2006 Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 Yes, and you appreciated Seven for her brains, right? :naughty:I know I did! Both of them! :hyper: Still, I'm not one to worry. So far you still can get apps locally, and I'm shure will continue to no matter how they try to change it (re: :umno:). Even if they do succede in that manner it'll just push more people to *nix. bush trying to get google's archives? aiee, there's a reason to start masking your IP; don't want to end up bound, gagged and laying in a pile of you nakid fellows for googleing "failure" and hitting "i'm feeling lucky" all the time...

InfiniteNow Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 Oh now this scary. The Register is reporting that Google has an internal plan to try to get everyone in the world to store all their data on their servers: your local disk drives just become a "cache" (temporary storage to speed up access to you non-techies).Google outspooks the spooks with Total Information Awareness planHmmm... Google Earth, indeed. :hihi: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexander Posted March 15, 2006 Report Share Posted March 15, 2006 well, this guy had linux running on his gmail account.... why not store some data on their server? only as a backup though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chendoh Posted March 15, 2006 Report Share Posted March 15, 2006 Read all about it. http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/G/GOOGLE_DOJ?SITE=AP&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT&CTIME=2006-03-15-04-28-08 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InfiniteNow Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 I didn't open the link, but what I've heard, in summary, is that Google is powerful, fighting the powerful government. The government asked for too much, but has essentially cut the original request in half. Google will be forced to give something to the government, but not the huge lump of info originally requested.
