Hehe, am I the only one who finds this amusing?

Quote from rockclan :

Even though I own iRacing (...)

You don't own iRacing

I just visit the forum (way too often tbh) because well... it's the biggest and most active one I'm on

I don't care much for LFS anymore; having played other far better (IMO) sims has ruined LFS for me and I don't ever really see it getting back on top. Although I have to say that driving the LX6 on Cargame.nl has rekindled my interest just a bit

Don't care much for the patch and actually don't hold much hope of it greatly improving LFS.

Guess he got tired of waiting

Well, I honestly don't think you'll get much response here. I think there's only a handful of people here who own an ACT L shifter, and they'll probably still be using it so they need the adapter themselves. Have you looked on Ebay and Amazon and the likes?

If you have an ACT Labs shifter, how come you didn't get the adapter with it?

Quote from Test Driver :

But Google doesn't need you to use Chrome if they wanted to track information about your surfing habits.

Even if you use another browser, Google (or any other website) shouldn't have much problems to identify you or to find out which websites you've been on lately.

So any browser can be insecure if it's not set up properly.

Yeah, that's what I said a few posts back. If someone cares enough to really want to track your moves on the internet, they can do so regardless of which browser you use. People who think they're anonymous on the internet are deluding themselves. And people who think that Google (or any other multi million dollar company) actually care about their comings and goings on the internet are flattering themselves; you mean less than jack shit to them in the bigger scheme of things. But hey, I guess the saying "ignorance is bliss" applies here

Quote from oli17 :

so is this just multiplayer AC then?

I hope not, I don't care for the MP part at all.

Quote from mcintyrej :

Your up to class C, wait a second - don't you have to wait until the next month?!

No, if you get your SR up to 4.0 you get promoted "instantly".

EDIT: beaten by a few secs

What? I was expecting a video displaying some horrible driving standards or some such

Quote from AstroBoy :

I see how you steer, but HOW THE HELL do you accelerate change gears and brake and all those other fun things?

Good question! Hadn't thought of that yet

Quote from danthebangerboy :

No ads on any site, ever for me, regardless of browser. Theres no place like 127.0.0.1

Hmm, that's interesting. I don't suppose you notice any slowdown from this?

Quote from The Moose :

"Earlier this month, the search firm admitted that it had collected information people had sent over unencrypted wi-fi networks for the last three years.

Last week, Google's CEO Eric Schmidt said that there was "no, harm, no foul", in relation to the data breach.

Google said the wi-fi data collection was a "mistake" and that it had not been authorised. "

Thanks for that. There's no excuse for Google to have collected that information. On the other hand, if you're stupid enough to use unencrypted wireless networks... Doesn't say anything about Google Chrome transmitting any data though, so I'll stand by my point on that one.

Quote from arco :

Yes, but the wysiwyg mode doesn't work in chrome, so if you for example want to bold some text, you get BB codes around them.

Ah, right. I always figured this was normal.

Quote from unseen :

No conspiracy theories here. google want every little bit of info they can get from everyone to tie up all the other data they have. give out a free browser, and everyone does the work for them.

The streetview cars are still in the shit in various countries over the wardriving situation, and rightly so.

Certainly isn`t any paranoia on my part. I only use wires on my network. I don`t give a shit if they`re raping everyone else on silly wireless networks

Until I see these accusations confirmed from a somewhat respectable source I'll just dismiss them as scaremongering from ignorant folk (no offense intended whatsoever ).

What wireless vs. wired networks have to do with this I don't know, though.

The Shift feature looks pretty dumb but if the driving and handling and such are convincing then I'll definitely be giving this a try.

Looks good indeed. Damn, I still have to get the second game.

Lol. Sounds like just another "conspiracy theorist" to me. Got any sources?

Quote from unseen :

Chrome... Hmmm. It`s Google. It`s stealing every little thing it can, when it can, in the background, so you won`t notice it. Not something I ever want on any secure, private system. Trust us, we`re Google...... **** that.

Care to elaborate on what exactly it's "stealing"? I'm really curious. What can it possibly be "stealing" from my computer? What sites I visit? What searches I do on Google? Like I said: who cares. Anything else? And do you have any sources on that info? 'Cause I do have sources saying that Chrome doesn't send any remotely confidential information anywhere. Yes, you can choose to have it send usage statistics (and these are hardly confidential and anonymous anyway), but it's an option.

Quote from arco :

And you can't use the wysiwyg editor in vBulletin, but I guess that's more vBulletins fault.

Is that the editor we (I) use on this forum to post? 'Cause that has worked fine for me since the first time I tried Chrome

But then, people didn't seem to get it(at least not the ones who had to).

And you think they will now?

Quote from Asphalt Scream :

I apologize but anyway I could get an answer like this in the very first time, I got mad becxause I dont like to be addressed like an ignorant noob.

You did get an answer in my first post, it was just subtly hidden in the smiley as I believe people should bother to read a thread properly if they wish to participate in the discussion at hand. You should have noticed when you quoted my post but I guess you didn't pay a lot of attention. I assumed you hadn't read the thread as the answer was given twice already in answer to the exact same question you posted

Quote from Lible :

I'd say that the best 'just browser' currently is Chrome but as said before, you're telling the google empire even more than they already know about you (which is a lot).

Oh noes, Google knows what sites I visit and what searches I do? Who the hell cares, seriously? It's not like your every move on the internet can't be tracked if you use any of the other browsers People these days are way too paranoid about stuff like this.

Surely you'll still have the option to just drive with a regular controller?

Quote from Asphalt Scream :

I got curious and since there is no link here I went to look for the mod but neither on rfactor central nor in Goolge i found it.
Can you provide a donwload link so that I may check if it is worth all the trouble please?

Read the thread (it's not that long)

Fair enough

Quote from hotmail :

The standard in lfs is allso way higher then in rFactor. There still is no mod that handles better then lfs.

Oh how horribly wrong and uninformed you are
