Quote from Gnomie :

Wow, dude.. my uncle is in exactly the same situation..!:twirl: he always wanted to be a pilot, but he lost his eye in an accident when he was a kid. He hasn't built a cockpit though, but he does play flightsims quite a lot. Plus, he's from Northern Norway too.

Wouldn't surprise me if they know each other then. Especially if your uncle is also flying online on Vatsim.

Dunno if this is something like you're after, but I have the A-100 from here: http://www.popcornhour.com/onlinestore/

That's correct.

W-O-W Arco, give me that now!

If I did he would have killed me.

Quote from V3NOMOUS :

Holy hell is all I gotta say No Offence to your Uncle but maybe hes taken that a little to far? :S Next minute he will be building the actual Plane

Nah, lot's of people build their own flight sim cockpits. My uncle has been interested in airplanes his whole life, and if it hadn't been for a car accident in his youth, where he lost an eye, he probably would have been a real pilot now.

Btw, took a couple movies of it too. Bad quality since it was with my cell phone, but anyway...

Couple pictures of my uncles cockpit project...

Ya, Foxmarks rox!

On another note, yesterday XBMC ‘Atlantis’ Beta 2 was released.

Doh! Thought this thread was about the Nürburgring when I opened it...

Ah, sorry misread it.

Quote from Jakg :

My board has an 8-pin connector in the top-left corner - my old PSU had the connector, but my new one doesn't - could this being unplugged be the reason? If so - where do I get one from?

I think that 8-pin connector can be splitted into two 4-pins. A lot of these new PSU have one that can anyway. Just try and wriggle it a little and see if it comes apart.

Quote from G!NhO :

We have a boat, a horse trailer and a caravan. we need a jeepto pull those things, get it!?

many other cars arent even allowed to pull the boat.


not true at all

Do you prefer to tow that caravan with a petrol engine, or a diesel engine?

Quote from joshdifabio :

Of course not, but that doesn't mean I'm going to have a go at the admins who are clearly doing the best job they can with little time, lots of pressure and no money. Imo, the comment from Arco was disrespectful and rudely written.

Well, the tracker provides some vital information, and if it's gone dead or been moved, spending 1 minute posting some info about it wouldn't hurt. My comment was just a "in a moment of heat" comment, so if anyone feels offended by it, my apologies.

Where's the tracker dissapeared? How the hell can we manage the team when there's no tracker? Just drive as a bunch of headless chickens out there?

Geez! Off to a great start this...

It's not connected to the insim relay atm.

Can todays qualifying be watched on remote?

Quote from CSU1 :

OT:

In folder properties permissions tab there is a group named 'other', what catagory does the group 'other' fall into?

http://www.linuxsecurity.com/content/view/118181

Quote :

Why is this group given permissions to create and delete inside installation files by default?

Because that's the... default? What installation files are you talking about?

Quote :

What system services reside in 'other'?

How do I apply permissions to individual system services whitelisting them folder access permissions?

As explained in the article linked above, you use chmod. However, you're best off not changing them, otherwise things may break. Why do they need to be changed?

What about XBMC? Beta versions for Linux, Windows and Mac just released.

http://xbmc.org/

Hmm, slideshow yes.

Say "thanks arco".

It's like the guy streaming have a task going that maxes out the cpu. Try reboot.

Anyone else have bad streaming?

For it's use Linux is very good. And no Jack, it's not a program, but an OS.
I agree that as a desktop OS for the masses it's not there yet, but still, you can accomplish most of the same things there as you can in Windows. It's true strength however is on the server side. And there's a good chance that one of your digital devices, or one that you buy in the future has Linux in it.

If it hadn't been for LFS, I would be perfectly fine with Linux as my primary OS.

Does this add-on help?

If the drive is making clicking sounds, it's a sure sign of mechanical failure. It may seem to work ok sometimes, and others not. But it will just get worse and at some point you won't be able to read anything from it, and the computer won't reckognize the drive. So better backup the data before that happens and replace the drive imo.

Where exactly do one cruise as a demo user? I though all cruising was done at South City?
