Is that... a girl with a penis? D:

U is a slut?

mehbeh

ur my slut.
Just remember that.
www.funnyjunk.com/funny_pictures/2793270/FJ/4155595#4155595
I never forget

Yes, Master.

Now, make me a coffee.
Make sure you add extra slut to it.
I'm not very good with this whole master thing

Here it is mastuh, extra sugar and all, mastuh.

I'm of to lunch, so I'll see ya later. Bye!

Thx slut, it's great. I'll be ordering more later.

Have fun! Take care!

Well, if nothing else, you can always mute the game's music and play your own in background.
S'what I had to do for strike fighters since it used a different 5 second loop for every other menu screen.

Very nice relaxing music.

IT'S NOT THE SAME THING!!!

Have you played Grid Autosport? It's actually not that bad. A lot better than Grid 2 at least. Back to the roots, even more grassroots than Grid if you want to.

Not yet, I don't really have anything to play racing sims with. My only controller died a while back and kb+m isn't viable for racing sims. I'm trying to save up for a nice HOTAS since flight sims are more my thing, but those things, like nice steering wheels, get really expensive really fast.

The armored core 3 track has a whailing that really disturbs me... You've shown me ac3 stuff before and I remember liking some of it a lot.

Not gonna lie, I sometimes fire up GTA IV just to hear the theme, shoot a few people and close it. Brilliant piece of vidya theme wizardy.

I can see your point. My brother isn't too fond of it either, but he also doesn't like the boomy voices in opera. It's kinda sorta barely similar.

I kinda thought a lot of radio stations in GTAIV had crap music, but it's been years since I've played it. That was also on ps3 where you couldn't play your own music over games like you could with xbox or pc. It was a bit of a let down since the intro music was really good.

Similar deal with Ace combat 6, great main theme, so-so everything else.

I'd never compare this to opera. I'd compare it to this.... and yeah don't ask. It's our alternative to I'm so fresh you can you know what..



GTA IV Radio was actually pretty cool, even better percentually than that of V's.

Sadly, that is the case with most games.

That vocalist kinda sounds like he was forced to sing after losing a bet imo.

I barely remember anything from GTA IV's radio but disappointment, but that may have been due to comparing it to Vice City's 80's music.

Eh, kinda varies from series to series.

Really nice that From could get a studio orchestra to do the soundtrack for Bloodborne, would've sounded great for their Armored Core games over computer-simulated strings.

Best theory I've heard... the only one really. Finnish humor is ****** up.

The real voice one is the cover... this makes me think, what's the point of vocaloid. Why would you listen to the vocaloid version??

youtu.be/p-o_bMkzOW0?t=77
youtu.be/oG2I17Zm8kI?t=77

Didn't think it was possible to put "Finnish" and "humor" in the same sentence. i jest

"well, gee this song is rather uppity, wonder what it says in the english subtit- oohhh myyyyy"

If only you knew...

"Take that unbreathing thing and force it in my mouth." It's a new level of catchy&raunchy.

Merry Christmas, for a second I thought you weren't gonna accept it like my previous gift attempts.

Tell me about it, Win10 has also caused issues with virtual usb comm ports. Can't 3D print something over usb without the connection to the controller cutting out after five minutes and the print failing, wasting time and material.
Have to resort to printing with SD card like some sort of 2000's-era barbarian.

I had an article about disabling that too if you're interested, I could try and find it again. that's part of the dac problem too.

Huh, it might.
From the few mailing lists I've read, the com port issue is sometimes caused by the windows 10 driver failing to maintain a certain baud rate, could be something else entirely though. I honestly don't know. People with arduinos and other hardware development kits that use virtual com ports are having similar problems.

Well do this for starters, I'mma try to find the more extensive article. A cracking sound could be heard through my dac. Sometimes when it occurred, some usb devices, usually the g27 shut down. It hasn't shut down and the crackling is gone after I did this.

www.techsupportalert.com/content/how-fix-annoying-windows-usb-problem.htm

Thanks, I'll give it a shot. You'd think the canned "High Performance" power setting would leave a lot of the power-save features disabled.

my plight of racing games:
rally is always favorite gamemode
rally cars are ugly match-boxes with more stickers on 'em than an inner-city light pole
get even uglier splattered with mud, dust, leaves and the blood of local fauna that wandered on the track

Most of the beautifully designed, masterly engineered, state-of-the-art hyper-limited hyper-cars just end up sitting in inventory/garage looking pretty.

Nice mixing job btw.

Rally is nice, but I mostly love drifting and circuit. Drifting is a horrible thing to love since most racing games have that "assisted sick ass be your own Ken Block" drifting physics model where you can do epic manjis in a stock FWD civic playing drift mode but can't get the tires slip with a clutch drop in races. That's why I really only play Assetto Corsa these days. It's still fun to play Dirt showdown and the crew once in a while.

Rally cars are ******* sick yo, **** you.

The new trailer really lacks the grace that Gran Turismo cinematics have always had. The music in GT has always given it that "gentleman's simcade" feel, along with the wonderful menu music.

To be fair, even with an accurate newtonian physics engine, it can be really difficult for a game studio to realistically model a huge variety of cars with different weight-distributions, torque, tires, track surfaces, etc, etc, etc. . .
It's mainly the reason most hardcore flight-sims focus solely on one aircraft; it takes so much time and effort just to model one vehicle accurately let alone dozens to hundreds so corners had to be cut har in physical accuracy so the game would be practical.

Never said they weren't cool, just ugly. No other kind of racing car can take so much of a beating and finish a race in (mostly) one piece. Unlike F1's which are so precisely engineered if you look at them the wrong way a component would need replacement.

That video left out the best part of the song.

When you nail the physics of a car and the effects of the mechanical and structural modifications, you get a sim that functions on all surfaces. Like Rfactor or Assetto.

Most of them are really beautiful in my opinion...

Oh god yes!

Still costly and difficult to do ontop of everything else to develop in a sim.

real cars have curves, girlfran.

Well said.

This artist also does a little rap, but mostly combines elements of hip-hop, rnb, with sprinkles of dubstep here and there as well as other electronic elements.
Works out of Colorado too.

I've become a total rap addict. I used to listen to a lot of ****** rap, but can't stand it anymore. I like songs with actual lyrics, and good beats. Sometimes you don't get to bitch about production quality tho...

Gotta appreciate a good beat. Behind a good beat is the skill to make a very limited amount of samples sound great in a constantly varying loop, that's not easy.

Basically how I feel about most american popular rap. rnb tends to be a little better, but my information on that is circa 2008 though. Other than that, yeah nothing beats a good beat. Love German or French rap every now and then.
minimal with emphasis on percussion

If I used hard drugs, this would be exactly the kind of music I'd listen to.

First one is my absolute fave from that mix, such atmosphere...

tbh most music sounds amazing while high. You pick up on subtle nuances and details in a way that feels much different from listening on caffeine or alcohol.

I might just have to try that latter link for an hour-long marathon audiosurf run.

Caffeine doesn't do anything to me, alcohol does very little, but high nicotine intake does a lot.

Was high once, don't remember much of it but that it was **** for me.



my tower of nicotine onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=316DB32D8104B5A1!1542&authkey=!AFmX3hPWhOe4tw0&v=3&ithint=photo%2cjpg

nice tower of tobabelco
I'm not sorry

Go to bed.

Well, different strains of cannabis can provide wildly different highs, some are more sedating and others, more stimulating.

I find caffeine highs tend to make music sound more intense and dramatic, but maybe that's just because I make my coffee strong as ever-loving hell.

Alcohol buzz, nothing. Never been drunk before so idk.

Sorry for being bad at friendship, but unfortunately I don't have the discipline to improve to be good at friendship.

BTW I've been meaning to ask, do you have any opinion on Blue's first attempt at headphones, the "Mo-Fi"? mofiheadphones.com/
It's scored some pretty good reviews for its price, but I value your input if you've had the chance to demo them in person.

Also, how's life?

Gimmicky idea. Hopefully you can pass the amp or get a passive version. Based upon reading 5seconds.

There's a power switch for the amp and will work "passively." One reviewer said they're on par with dt880's for sound quality, but cost about 100usd more.

Dt880 is a rather wide thing to say. The sound difference between the different impedance 880's, pros and others is pretty well hearable.

I've grown very bored of my 880's. Mainly use my fidelio x1's, atm using focal spirit ones cuz in bed.

is this you irl?

Almost. Somewhere I have a similar pic where i have the hd700's, hifiman he-5's, grado sr2's, akg k701's and some other headphones on me.

Quite the collection. Do you still work in retail?

Oh, OH. That's right, sorry I forgot.

How's life for you?

Coasting through senior year of college, looking up job positions for something entry-level in tech. Hoping to graduate this spring, but twice now a few of my transfer credits form my old uni got reclassified causing me to meet or not meet certain other credit requirements. Aside from the minor stress from that most things are going pretty well.
I wish you the best of luck in your service.

Studying hasn't changed I see. Thanks.

Imma go to bed now, cya later.

Good night

I an back, more discussion-abled than yesterday.

Sup?

Just got back from the dispensary and bought some marijuana, though I won't be able to have too much fun this weekend because I have an essay due tomorrow and midterms next week.

how's life treating you besides being in the military?

Drugs are bad m'kay.

but but but caffeine is a drug

:v
also this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7E634PYi1eI

It needs a rap over it.

"alive" is a relative term anyway.

what's up?

Nothing, college and **** .


How's life?

Just about the same; coasting through senior year of college hoping a gotcha doesn't show up at the end preventing graduation, but mostly everything's going well.
Also been addicted to mgsv for the past few weeks, but only enough that it doesn't interfere with studies.

What can I do for you?

Still around, eh?

It's not like they're any good substitutes for FJ's brand of senseless idiocy.

There might be a few

Still a brony?

Not as avid as I used to be, but still have a casual interest in it.

Well, the reason I came to you is that we have a pony board of our own still running, and was wondering if you were interested in posting on a pony board.

Its substantially slower than it used to be but

Yeah, I'm aware. I just don't have the energy to be as interactive with the community as I used to. Been largely preoccupied with hobbies, school, and other things.

Ah alright
I was just wondering if you were still around ^^

What hobbies have you been getting involved with?

3D modeling, 3D rendering, 3D printing, etc. etc. etc.

That sounds so cool!

It's actually a huge pain in the ass. Imagine all of the normal problems that come with a regular ol' inkjet paper printer, and then cube that number because three dimensions.

God I hate printers
Devil's work, really.

at least it's not without reward

I'm really bad at friendship :v

Unfortunately no. If I did, wouldn't maintain a music playlist.
The YouTube Center plugin includes options for downloading audio from a handful of external sites, but it's awfully clumsy to get music that way. Not too bad for just one song, but not really feasible for downloading en masse.

My brother used to have a set of wheels with rims almost exactly like those (and damn good racing tires), he absolutely loved them until they were stolen right off his car which was parked in the driveway. Local police wouldn't even give us the time of day to do a report on it.
I felt so bad for him for the longest time.

Corolla's doing fine, still runs like a dream. Will be moving again soon so I'll (probably) need to find a new part time job. Hoping to get something on campus like a workstudy position.
If I have enough money left over (if any) from upgrading my computer to the new upcoming chipset, I'm looking to get my windows tinted.
As of current, they have absolutely no tint; aside from lack of privacy, lots of direct sunlight's really hard on the interior and heats it up like a broiling oven.

I don't have a particularly acute attention span or short term memory, so I have no idea.

OH. MY. ******* . GOD.

THIS IS THE FORTH ******* TIME WRITING THIS ******* POST BECAUSE THE LAST COUPLE OF TIMES I TRIED WRITING ON YOUR PROFILE OR REPLYING, MY CONNECTION DROPPED AND THE WHOLE DAMN POST IS GONE ON ******* PLUTO FOR ALL I KNOW.
FFS COMCAST.
I've had to resort to ******* writing out posts in ******* wordpad and saving them on the off chance my connection drops.
It's been fine for the past week or so, but I also had final exams, YIPPEE. And then my sister was over for Mother's Day weekend, so I also had family obligations.

ANYWAY.
LOTSA STUFF HAPPENED AND THINGS N' **** . Sorry for the wall of text

Finally got a new headphone amp; a SMSL sApII TPA6120A2. Surprisingly decent build quality and design for a Chinese product; brushed aluminum construction with gold plated headphone jack and rca inputs. The audio quality is about what you'd expect from 70usd amp so take from that what you will. It plays nicely with the Phono BDS, but I'll credit that to the DS' tweakable settings. It does seem to have a marginal volume bias towards the left channel that you don't really notice unless if you're explicitly looking for it.
I originally wanted a Pro-Ject Head box or a Silverstone EBO3, but it was just outside of budget. Oh Well, maybe some day.
I've mostly been using it to get most of my collection over to digital. I figure quality isn't a massive issue because 1) if I'm at home, I'll just listen to the vinyl and 2) if I'm not at home, I'm probably not using hardware good enough to make a significant audible difference.
That said, most of the preliminary recordings are easily 100MB+.
Here's one of the better recordings:
www.dropbox.com/s/54hzcvhueln2w1o/Soliquid%20-%20Lonesfield.zip
the password is 'derp'.
The reason why I'm sharing a password-protected zip rather than just the .flac is because Dropbox has been caught redhanded opening/reading files to see if they're copyrighted and sending ISPs notices if uses share links to copyright materials.

Also will be getting a lot of old hand-me-down vinyls over to digital as a favor for my mom since she'll be retiring soon. Got a bit to go through.

Newegg will be a sponsor of Formula Drift this year. Tried to shoot you a link a while ago, but comcast.
Here's all the coverage thus far:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQH0cNHDhrE&list=PL1a9Sneh2hcysUBO8CnYYu2tm0V5b8L-d
The anchor, Jenny, is a bit of a motornut, which some people find a little out of place that she works for a tech retailer whose primary audience is technophiles but she offers a lot of insight into automotive practices and culture when given the chance.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=KGQh6BqEyZ8&feature=player_detailpage#t=102

Did plenty of work on my server, finally running the software I originally wanted and not some ****** tunneling pseudo-dropbox. Remote downloading of whole folders to zip files actually seems to ******* work, yay. Generating static download links also works, so it will be a nice way to get around the dropbox shenanigans mentioned earlier.
Remote Streaming is still iffy. One of my goals is to be able to give you and other friends complete read-only access to my music collection with the ability to browse, stream, and download whatever you like.
So that said, try to go to the following link. If your browser spits out an error about untrusted SSL certificates, that's normal. I can't be arsed to pay a "trusted" organization for a signed certificate that expires in a year when I can just make and sign one myself. Also, I'm not using a version of SSL that's effected by the heartbleed bug.
You need to login to view this link
If you can't connect I have more work to do, else if you get a login page I can throw you some credentials.
Everything's preliminary atm, I'm hoping to make upgrades in the next few months when x99 is released.

Also, Silverstone has released a headphone stand made of damn-near solid aluminum. Hard to get in the states and a little bit pricy, but Silverstone has established a very good reputation for legendary build quality.
silverstonetek.com/product.php?pid=490&area=
It looks really nice, would definitely go with my other silverstone gear, but 100+usd for a honk of aluminum seems better well saved towards the appending launch of a lot of new computer tech in the coming months. ******* NOCTUA MAKING THE BEST DAMN COMPUTER FANS ON THE MARKET WITH A FUGLY ASS COLOR SAND-BROWN SCHEME ARE NOW GONNA RELEASE THE SAME FANS IN BLACK AND GREY. THEY COULD SELL THEM FOR DOUBLE THE PRICE AND PEOPLE WOULD BUY THEM ANYWAY BECAUSE THEY'RE DAMN. GOOD. FANS. ASLDKFJAALSKDF

So yeah, my sincerest apologies for not getting to ya sooner.

Sounds fun fun fun.

I've still got my old one, it's so darn good. I sold my Sennheiser HD280's actually. Also kinda gave away my STX.

Sweet, I'll take a listen to this. That's kind of cuntsy, but hey, they own whatever is in their cloud according to the tos right...?

Sounds good. How much do you have by now?

Gay sponsor if you ask me. Used to seeing brands like Falken, Tein, Bilstein, Toyo... on dem cars.

That would be very nice of you! Have you ever had working streaming? I guess I can trust you... I got the login page though.

Haha, I actually got the sievking sound stand. Ditched my old ones when I got the wharfedale stands with their speakers, took the headphone stand as a trade. I gotta say, it looks darn good.
farm2.static.flickr.com/1094/1173256828_a7550e482a.jpg
Still want this sobad.

No worries mate.

Still rockin' the beyers?

I think so. Dropbox's official reasoning was to able to make file previews in the web interface until some people who got warning letters from their isp were able to deduce that db was the only service tipping them off.

Recorded? Not much, just a couple of EPs.

'scuse you. While it's nice to see companies sponsor events and competitors related to their industry, more sponsors never hurts.
Besides, Newegg has really been expanding its automotive offerings in recent years; they're sill mostly a tech e-tailer though.

That's good.

Sometimes I wish I had a 3D printer so I could design and make my own stand (among other things), to have a completely unique one-of-a-kind stand that's distinctly personal.

Yes, tested a lot of things and have found nothing better under 800€. Haven't tried the T90's yet though.

Funky. Though what if they can open them anyways?

But in general?

Well I wouldn't know, I'm not their customer. But yeah, sponsors are great.

inb4 you take me moni

I'd rather make my own from wood. Would be so much cooler. But cba.

Does your store not carry them?

They do. Also supported by the fact that someone wrote a honeypot script embedded in a file designed to phone home if the file was opened. I guess you know how that turned out.

In non hand-me-down vinyls, not too much; jus'a few EPs. Most of the stuff I really want gets pretty expensive for better conditions, like this ************ :
www.discogs.com/Hybrid-Reappear-Here/release/2356864

nah bruv

Eh, too sawdusty.

Pilot store, was open for a year, not good enough. No store no more, I'm working in an electronics store again. We didn't have Beyerdynamic in our selection, though we could get it of course. We had HifiMan as our main brand and another chain has Beyerdynamic. The main point of representing one major brand is that when we bought beyerdynamics, we sold them at 25-35% profit. For HifiMan it was 45% and 55% for accessories.

One thing I hate about household electronics. They have no steady profit margins, even inside one brand, and one product line there are big differences. It's very redundant and lowers profits. Some products are sold on minus or 0 profit... Common practice to mock products to customers, that have 0 or less profit. Also telling people we can't get it even though we can because it would just be so stupid to sell it. In the Hi-Fi industry, you pick a brand and they have one number that you have to remember, maybe another one for their accessories... Not to mention that if you can manage to sell a fridge on 20% profit you are a salesgod merchantlord, you give a 10% discount on a pair of speakers and you get 35% profit. Literally every store's list prices are the same so if you don't get a personal quote, you have no treshold for supporting your local dealer.

And here I thought someone actually needed me... For shame.

Here's the headphone amp:

What a dirty murcielago.

Not sure why, but dust really clings to it more so than the stuff around it.

can I help you?

Never heard of the prog.
If it's supposed to record audio from web objects, I can't imagine changing the audio output would help, but it couldn't hurt to try.

Have you tried running it as administrator?

**** the world. Nothing works.

Whassup?

new semester started, classes are pretty challenging but not impossible.
Not much else aside form that.

How goes life?

Goes Okay!

Vidya games and job hunting mostly

Looking for anything in particular or just whatever you can get?

When it comes to jobs, Anything i can get.

Have you tried using a site like careerbuilder? You upload a resume + cover letter and it can help you find a variety of different jobs nearby, even entry-level stuff or part-time.

I don't have a resume to really upload. but I will definitely check that out.

I might have a resume template lying around if you want to have a look at it.

that would actually be really helpful.

Alrighty, here're templates for a resume, cover letter and reference page.

So I might go to bed abruptly soon, but how's life?

It's alright. Nothing going on or new. Just got a fresh snowfall last night so it's super quiet outside.

Kinda looks like Toyota's answer to that one newerish Ferrari, can't be arsed to remeber the name.

Finally remember where I heard that Edwards song. It was at a coffee shop on campus where they stream various genres of music from web radio depending on the day of the week.

Rari f12 Berlinetta?

Ah, das cool.

Whassup?

That's the one.

New semester started. Classes seem challenging enough, can already tell final exams are going to be a bitch.
Lots of sleepless nights ahead, but there will be plenty of time to sleep after death.

Prolly gonna need to wait another week or two on the recorder because either the carrier or the shipper ****** up the delivery address, so it got returned to the merchant.
Gonna be mighty pissed if I'm out 200usd on a recorder.

It had an affair with an LFA and here's the offspring. GT6 graphics are sostunning.

Horny4study69.

You know what the **** happened? Remember my turntable problem? Well, some idiot with MS or something decides to haul his whole debut carbon to our store when his needle breaks (geeIwonderwhy). Well, having MS, he slips on the ice, obliterates most of the turntable. Well, he didn't need it so I took it in, sold him a Rega RP1. And took the motor which seemed to be totally intact, so yeah, might not be getting an RP3 just yet.

Meanwhile, flight sim buffs haven't got a nice looking sim in 10+ years. Everyone's focused on accuracy while they're content to use graphics from the late nineties.

Not masochist enough for dis.

So it was just the slavaged motor that was failing?

Just how epic would this kind of **** be with proper graphics?

You secretly are.

Nope, the old motor's fine too. If you remember, the screw is there to stay, and it's attatched to the motor.

youtu.be/I3h0B1H6JwY

Exactly.

Just a little.

The flight sims at my old uni had the simulator accuracy and cockpits down to a tee, but my then roommate (who was studying piloting) told me the horrendous graphics really ruined the immersion. He could learn the procedures and dynamics, but it could've felt more real, or so he says.

Wacky how? Cost? Street legality? Exclusivity?

Best car sound;
www.youtube.com/watch?v=VbNxugO-uf0

After contacting Amazon, they tell me the merchant whom I bought the recorder from had no more in stock, and since the one that was shipped out could be on mars for all we know, they're going to refund the purchase amount in full.
Better than being out 200usd and a recorder I suppose.

I wonder how much that all cost...

Kinki boi.

Simulators suck.

You buy it for millions. Ferrari's all like, "2fast4u" They won't let you keep it, you have to call them and they're deliver it where you want it and you tear the track, they take it away. It has some supah secret f1 tech that 'Rari would rather keep supah secret.

heh, granturGismo
Doesn't the wheel come with shifters made with ali or magnesium? I'd personally stick with that than plexi-glass ones.

A/D recorder should be here next week. "should" being the operative word. Waiting ever-so-patiently for that to arrive.
Got a leap motion for christmas, been fiddling with it a little bit.
CPU cooler was dying (idle temps were pretty high, not unsafe, but high). Currently using a placeholder cooler until I can get something new. Part of the reason I haven't been able to reply more promptly than usual the past couple of weeks.
Aside from that, not much else.

How have your holidays been?

And it handles and looks well and **** . Want a supercar? LFA.

You know that Polyphony made the infotainment software for the GT-R right? So it's not really a surprise that the official GT wheel is alike.

The dfgt has these poor little triggers for flap shifting plus the stick, the G27 has the flaps.

I would've got this one, but it has no stick, dunno if I would've needed that one but the dfgt was better than expected.

www.thrustmaster.com/en_UK/products/t100-force-feedback-racing-wheel

You got the NAD? What's leap motion?
Ah, I see, no problem.

Great, got a lot of steam games and **** . Did you buy anything?

Eh, the GT-R is the most feasible purchase for a future career. Would be nice to outtake jackasses in their SUVs on the highway when they need to learn that it is never okay for an SUV to be in the left lane then proceed to drive the speed limit. ******* cunts.

Learn some'in new everyday.

Ah. Well at least it has a stick for the time being till you upgrade the paddles.

If CH Products ever made a wheel, it would probably be one ugly ************ if not super-accurate with legendary build construction designed to last forever.
Thrustmaster's stuff has been alright though.

Yeah, should be here the 13th at the latest.
The Leap is a little usb device you put on your desktop to track finger movements, kinda like a mini kinect. It can be used for a variety of things like gaming or emulating a touchscreen monitor without having to buy a touchscreen monitor.

Got L4D2 while it was free and that's about it. None of the games I wanted had any compelling sales. (%20 off a 50usd title at the most). Though I have bought some content for TF2. Weirdly enough, I applied a kit to a knife in-game and now whenever I use it, it crashes a few friends' clients. My knife is 2swag4them.

Glad that suv's never got popular here. We have estates... estates everywhere. Mercs, audi's, anything, and they're all white. A GT-R would be ridiculously priced here.

www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=r3i-HRxf8z4#t=337

The paddles are ok, though I'm tempted to tweak.

I now wish they did. Dreaming the **** out of the Thrustie T500RS and maybe a Fanatec Clubsport switcher. Fanatec's wheels could be nice too though.

Oh, sounds awesome. What do you use it for? How much does one cost?

Lol... I got a lot of games and my downloads are still clogging my internets.

Most Californians drive them after experience the trauma of a first winter when their little priuses can't do **** in snow so think it's a better idea to get a lumbering SUV than to get new tires.
People who actually own SUVs for their intended purpose (which is about %15) don't drive like they're in the indi 500.

The GT-R is only 100k usd here. Pretty darn good considering it can hold it's own against other cars priced several times more than the GT-R.



Well the obvious thing you need to do is attach fuzzy dice to them. Fuzzy dice always make you drive more fasterer.

Never heard of Fanatec; the switcher does look like it could be crazy customizable though.

They're about 65~80usd. It's the first generation of the product so tracking and app support is a little iffy, but it's promising. Useful for operating the computer if you don't want to get your keyboard/mouse dirty when snacking on munchies.

Yeah. . . well... ur face.

Lol. There's no purpose for a suv, get a minivan or get a real offroader.

Ain't it supposed to be around 70k?

And race stripes. I actually have the steering stripe in my dfgt, it's nice to have.

Why didn't they drop the bmw and the lotus and get one real sports car more?

I see. I shall google the **** out of it now.

Sport Utility Vehicle. My mom has a friend who loves to do tons of outdoorsy stuff. Minivans oft don't have the hp to haul a boat or a trailer on mountain roads and sometimes lack even the mounts to strap bikes or kayaks to the top. A properly designed SUV will go offroad anyway while also being street legal comfortable to drive during other times of the year.

Nowadays, uppermiddle class people will drive them just to be imposing and never take them off solid pavement once.

Depends. 100k was approximate, all about location where you decide to buy. Still dirt cheap for performance you get out it.

Here's the second and third "world's greatest drag races" they've done for 2012 and 2013 respectively with different car lineups. Haven't watched the 2013 one though.

It is a little finicky, so don't say I didn't warn you.

I guess, crossovers though, I don't get that much.

Isn't a basic vette more? Like 125k?

Eh, I don't find these that interesting. Purdy to watch but I'd rather watch each car reviewed and compared to something actually relevant.

That 0-60, imagine how that feels.

yep, one of those "fashion" comfort SUVs. Not built to handle even a bit of gravel on the road, 'cause the manufacturer knows that whoever's the idiot buying is only using to drop their kids off at ehem football practice.

maybe, haven't ever really looked into corvettes. American automotive labor unions have gotten strong enough to the point where workers can half-assed build a car to die after ten thousands miles without getting fired. Shame.

But then they'd all look overpowering and have incredible performance to "relevant" cars. It's amusing to watch the best of the best and read comments by upset fanboys why their favorite car doesn't perform like it does in Need for Speed or Burnout.

Prolly like taking off with full afterburner I'd imagine.

American cars even sound like their engines are from the 70's. Horrible transmissions.

Burnout doesn't have real cars... I was actually really disappointed at how the LFA was in GT5, should try it in 6.

Which sucks, because they aren't necessarily designed bad. When my brother used to work in Vegas he got in touch with an engineer from Chrysler who lamented that he and his coworkers could spend years of all-nighters designing an excellent machine but ********** on the assembly line would **** up the construction this way and that because they can get away with it.

Meant to say Midnight Club Tried to think of the first two racing games to mind that weren't shooting for realism or weren't cart racers. ; point still stands.

Schmexy.

Meanwhile in Nissan's hermatically sealed laboratories, engineers are matching hand built engines to work perfectly with their equal, yet unique transmissions.

Does midnight club have real cars?

And that's why japanese and german cars are so popular in the US market; they ******* work.

It has real cars, but very unrealistic physics. Fun to play, but feels like it's trying too hard to be a mish-mash of NFSU2 and GTA (no car stealing, but the characters and plot feel about as shallow as those from GTA, which makes sense since they're both Rockstar games).
