I'm concerned about the situation in united states. have you seen life there??? look around every conrner and every kid has a damn gun, its scary as anything! I think some major troops should be deployed to usa to calm that s**t down.

Quote from keiran :
I've always been under the impression that Kimi is quite shy and likes to keep things to himself.

Martin Brundle (ITV commentator) was saying that when your with Kimi outside the paddock you can't get him to shut up.


Yep, that's the essence of a Finn.

Krhm. There's just as many genres as there are people podering about the genres. Kind of pointless to argue what is in which genre and what genre is purely fictional.

So, take a deep breath, relax and enjoy one look at genres.

One point to nuclear energy discussion. I don't support it, but I don't support fossilefuels either. Currently it seems that we must choose between two evils and that naturally sucks. Real problem is, that when nuclear energy is lobbed as an acute solvant to pollution, it at the same time takes away chances of getting better and cleaner methods of getting energy.

Remember: explosions and catastrophies are nothing in comparison to the state of conservative energy politics. If we decide to solve environment issues with nuclear energy, then no new method can come up in 50 years (or so), because all that time we have a decent source of energy. Full-scale development of alternative energy sources would be too expensive and not so efficient as nuclears in short timespan. Remember that political memory can barely remember yesterday (and doesn't give a damn about it, at best) and doesn't care about tomorrow. Today's incomes talk.

One ethical question is, that if nature has it's own way, then isn't it only natural that humen mess things up? I strongly feel that humankind has a power to determine most of it's destiny. We also must adapt to changing situations. If a comet is going to destroy Earth in two years, then we must come up something fast or vanish. If we are drowning in our own waste, then we definately must come up with something. In an universe, where random luck keeps us safe, it's pretty darn stupid to make a suicide.

End of rant. Gotta work.

Quote from JTbo :There is really lot of political talk about next one, that what they are building is 5th reactor and now arm twisting is going on from 6th, some less intelligent seem to think that nuclear power is really bad thing, well it is only thing to make enough energy for our needs when looking to future as we need to reduce our rather non existent CO2 emissions 20% or so and that is either we stop our traffic completely, drive factories to China or build more nuclear power so that we can shut off those power plants permanently that use fossil fuels.

That's kind of one thing I tried to address. We wouldn't need more energy if we could optimize our production, but since no shareholder is willing to cease their income (from shares) for few years, no reasonable investions to factory productiveness and energy efficiency is made.

Nuclear power in Finland has been very secure, but mainly because of good luck and small number of plants. They still produce waste. Burying it into ground because "our ground base is trillions years old and will remain consistent for million years to come" is pretty lame. It's just like brooming dirt under a carpet.

Naturally something has to be done to the waste. Burying it into ground seems reasonably secure if it doesn't leak into the waters-below-surface. Problem is, that with increasing amount of nuclear power plants, the amount of waste increases all the time. There will be point when there aren't anymore secure places under ground.

This is deep and I think it would be best to discuss these things in a pub with a pint (just one). Would you internationals care to come to Tampere?

I hate this talk about global warming because it's just a smoke screen for big dollars to keep on consuming. Global warming this, global warming that, and therefore we must build more nuclear plants. Puck that.

The real problem is pollution which actuall isn't included in global warming talk. The reason to build more nuclear power is that we wouldn't be dependent on fossile fuels. So that we could maintain our energy usage level even when oil is gone. Wtf? Best way to fight environmental disasters is to consume less. Use less energy. Nuclear waste is still waste and pollution even if it's buried out of sight.

Global warming is currently just a political punch-line which allows politicians to look and sound important without requiring them to actually think about anything. And people buy it. Of course. People don`t understand what`s going on so they trust politicians. Politicians dont know jack either, so they trust lobbyist/corporates.

As a solution to global warming and energy crisis (which seems to have been consistent situation from the beginning of industrial ages) the building of nuclear power plant farms is always offered. Why couldn`t we just save energy? Is it necessary to keep the lights on when nobody is in room? Is it necessary to run factories 24/7 even when there`s no actual need? Is it really necessary to drive two kilometers to work when walking would be cheaper, faster and good for health?

Situation is same in everything. Coding for example. Always new code is added on top of older and very rarely the whole code is redesigned with much more optimal methods.

If our factories use too much energy, then optimize them instead of providing more and more energy to them, but noooo. Shareholders have to have maximum profits all the time, so no chance of upgrading the energy effectiveness.

Global warming is serious issue, but it is mainly used as a smoke screen. If you really want to know, if you really care, then dig deep into it and figure things out. You don`t like what you find out. No one important knows anything and no one is admitting it.

Racing for money is sooo booring. Race for fun or don't race at all, that's what I say. Thing is, money or other prizes bring along some nasty stuff.

I like STCC servers. Nice and tight racing most of the time, nice combos. I like when track changes. It evens the field. Could happen with faster pace than every two hours.

SID :lovies3d:

Naturally "pure" sid-version is better, because mp3 is just an approximation whereas the sid is exact.

HW sid player would be nice, but I don't feel like ripping the chip from my workhorse.

I liked my Guinness warm but not quite in room temp. Cold Guinness had no flavor and was too easy to drink. The bitter, the better.

These finnish pale lagers has to be consumed ice cold, so that the awfulness isn't tasted.

Quote from Modoff :Whats the difference either way im still at least 60 points off where i should have been. Its frustrating because i can race for hours online and NEVER get disconnected, But the moment i try to do a olfsl race i ALWAYS get disconnected. Basically a disconnect means I wasted a whole hour of my life. and i just think thats lame.

You definately are pro, since you drive for points instead of pure fun and enjoyment, and for that I pity you, I really do.

Discos are bummer, but skid happens. Better luck next time.

I think that 40 laps rallycross is a brilliant idea. If it would be two/three heats, then the importance of keeping car in shape would be less effective. With single 40-lapper it's important to take those jumps correctly and not to bash into walls. Unfortunately it also increases the risk of getting knocked out from competition, but no-one wants to do that to anyone, right?

It's nice that everyone can participate and thus there will be many pools. Downside is that most of the races could require no pitstops. That's kind of sad. Pitting and refueling is fun.
