Quote from Shadowww :

it is limited to ghz's of your cpu. try overclocking?

:gnasher:
yes. a quadcore 2.4 core2 is not enough for lfs. :chairs:

Quote from shiny_red_cobra :

That's good to hear! One more thing though, formatting a hard drive doesn't necessarily mean the virus is gone, I'm speaking from personal experience. Run an antivirus on it right away.

wiping a drive clean, the whole drive, is much more certain to get rid of a virus, than running an antivirus on a disc with data.

Most shops would assemble it for you.

oh, and you need a case. $50 or so for one that you like and you're still under the budget

edit: and a dvdr :P $20 or so

i somehow expect the introduction of a mass produced car into lfs will bring along some easy-to-implement features like... locked gear ratios... can't think of anything else right now...

Quote from Bob Smith :

New does not automatically mean good

well maybe not, but a new car means something new to learn something new to conquer, hone our skills as sim racers.

Quote from Bob Smith :

it's so similar (spec wise) to the FXO

i feel like i am talking to people that have an opposite meaning of everything. Thus, i will quietly stop taking part in this discussion.

Quote from ColeusRattus :

people explained it by river dieties commanding it to do so. Today, we know that gravity is the cause of that.

and here i can tell you that you don't have a very good grasp on what science is... go read Feyman for a while, see what he has to say about birds and their names. Seriously.

Quote from ColeusRattus :

while scientifically and philosophically advanced, they lacked the means

whoa. they lacked the means? you sure about that? i think they had the means all right... After all, they were philosophically advanced.

Quote from ColeusRattus :

to question the very fabric of their religion.

They didn't want to. They weren't interested in that. That was their religion, not their subject of scientific interest. They made progress and added on their knowledge. When they found out things that contradicted their beliefs, the beliefs became secondary. Their religious beliefs didn't hinder them at all in their scientific progress. Unless you know something i don't. (did you check out my flag?:shy

Well, it can do SOMETHING... the 6150 can play lfs, i do not think it can do much with a lot of cars on the grid though
if you are really pressed for cash and you can't wait for a pc

amd 4450e $60
asus m2n mx se+ $50
512MB $9 (1GB for $15)
wd1600aajs 160GB $42
antec 500W $50
and $90 for an ati 3850

you can play lfs at max settings

i really don't think it's much to ask from the Dev Team to say something.

In fact i can say that we may ask for some sort of report. It doesn't have to be accurate or anything. Just some words to make us feel nice. Or something.

Quote from dawguk :

Most religion is so full of hypocrisy, it's no wonder so many people have a distaste for it.

you mean most religious people are full of hypocrisy.

Quote from dawguk :

Personally, I don't understand how someone can base their life around a book that provides no evidence for it's source and that was written x thousand years ago, and assume that it's relevant in today's society.

that's why it's called belief and not knowledge. You can't have proof for the existence of god. That would take away the meaning of believing in his existence. Plus, talking about the existence of god needs to take into consideration the meaning of existence itself.

Quote from ColeusRattus :

Concerning religion: it once served a purpose. It explained things unexplainable in the past, and it gave people a moralic framework to live by. Of course, with modern science and ethics, the very concept of any religion is obsolete.

What the hell does science have to do with religion?


Why do still people confuse the purpose of each one of those things? Morality reached very high grounds in classical greece and great scientific progress was made, yet people knew how to distinguish the two and religion was tightly woven into their lives.

it doesn't matter what word is being used to mean what, as long as everyone is clear on the definition.

Also, tell people that if you want to get accurate about something you need to learn the terminology.

i like it how people talk about religion without ever studying them and i like it how atheists say that religion holds people back relating to civilization and scientific progress.

i fart:haha: in the general direction of whoever thinks this thread has a point larger than a τ neutrino.:bananadea

Quote from harjun :

if you've built the computer yourself you might have to up the RAM voltage to 2.1, this is what happened to mine when i first got it, then all was fine.

Do you know what kind of RAM he is using?

Did you change anything in the computer the past two or three days? Did you install new drivers? Has it ever happened outside of lfs?

Great work Tristan!

and two jokes (explicitly declared as such to avoid appearing to be an ****)

why are you on knobblies

yay now scawen has data to make better damage modelling and introduce wet racing

Quote from NotAnIllusion :

There's a difference though. Omiting all sorts in 'live' chat is perfectly fine to me, but expecting coherent and correct typing when a suitable moment presents itself isn't over the top .

Why? When you are in a "live" chat you are pressed for time? Or does it take extra effort from you to type correctly? I don't consider talking or typing to be different. Both are expressions of your thoughts and as such are inherently as coherent as them.

In short: your thought processes (on some matter) dictate your speaking and typing (on that matter)

LFS forums. Come in for the chit-chat, stay for the neurophysochological debates

we don't use punctuation. we don't use proper capitalization, hell a significant percentage can't tell if they're supposed to use their they're or there... and you want us to pay attention to the ipod? ftn

Quote from Jakg :

It's iPod Touch - not iTouch. It's also iPod, not IPOD, Ipod, IPod or any other butchering of the name.

yes, sorry for disrespecting it. we will make sure never to make mistakes when referring to iPod(T)(C)(R).











*iPod is a registered trademark of Apple(T)(C)(R)

RSC gave you the link, not me

so it worked, then

glad to hear all is ok

u sure about that?

yay let's put a rendering engine that is targeted at multiple platforms and extensibility using a buttload of scripting and abstraction layers into severely constrained systems which run on another buttload of abstraction layers.

Quote from danthebangerboy :

I have got the radeon hd2600 pro (agp)blah

get rid of the omegas. get catalyst 8.9 or 8.10 beta and make sure they are properly installed.

Quote from shiny_red_cobra :

It's not the driver that decides your framerate.

I strongly disagree. I would say that the driver is the most significant factor. If it provides the features the card can support, the program will be fast. If the driver is not well written... well...

"It's not the driver that decides your laptimes..."

And another thing: not only they are a very important performance factor, they are a very important stability factor.

The code that a piece of hardware is executing (in this case, the driver and the program as a whole) is the limiting factor.

if my card can do vertex/fragment shaders, but the driver does not provide the proper arb extensions, i am fscked.
