Lone_Bullet Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 Went for a high speed drive on a yet to be connected road ( been there for AGES, never used ). Just a long strip of asphalt, basically in the middle of nowhere and barred from public/traffic Funny experience: somehow after reaching 150+ km/h I had the feeling everything was more... loose and fluid. Like, the steering offered less resistance, the throttle was responding faster. Is this a trick of mind? Also, afterwards I have trouble starting my engine twice. Weird. Nevertheless, my Audi 8P did ok . Down from 205km/h to 190 in 4 years time though... PS. Don't ever speed on a 'normal' public road. Always, ALWAYS perform a risk analysis. Don't break the law and even then be smart about your business. Link to post Share on other sites
Tinkerton Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 Make the drive to nurburg, bullet. Its only about 5 or 6 hours drive from ghent. Get a hotel for the night, have a go around. Its brilliant. Link to post Share on other sites

rhino Posted September 18, 2016 Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 what made me happy? great day yesterday, lovely weather and the chance to walk down the promenade and get people randomly singing "GHOSTBUSTERS!" to you when you walk past Link to post Share on other sites
Mike_West Posted September 18, 2016 Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 Remind me, which one of you owns a VW Corrodo and what kind of engine does it have? Link to post Share on other sites
DeltaZero Posted September 18, 2016 Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 Took the future Mrs Grif to see the new Bridget Jones film last night.. surprisingly I enjoyed it more than I expected... I was the only male in the cinema but took one for the team and got ultimate man points for being spontaneous.. to top it off she's just cooked an absolutely cracking leg of roast lamb and I now have my own gravitational pull. Top notch. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites
Skarclaw Posted September 18, 2016 Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 had/having a fun weekend. Saw the gf in a musical she was in on friday, took a stroll round chinatown then had some banging beef in black bean sauce. Yesterday saw my mate's band play at a mini festival inside a brewery - top notch beer and £3.30 is very good for "craft" ale in London!!! After that had some more chinese food... Only downside is that I'm currently in the office working on some bits (shouldn't really be browsing here lol) but meeting my bro at the gym later for some olympic-style weightlifting... then a massive bf4 session planned with a mate.

Tinkerton Posted September 18, 2016 Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 Remind me, which one of you owns a VW Corrodo and what kind of engine does it have?I've got a rusty corrado with a G60 engine (1.8l supercharged.) Why? Link to post Share on other sites
Mike_West Posted September 18, 2016 Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 Well, I just wanted to make sure if I understood your advice to Lone_Bullet correctly, since you took the Corrodo for a spin on the Nerdberkring, IIRC. Link to post Share on other sites
DeltaZero Posted September 19, 2016 Report Share Posted September 19, 2016 For some reason work have, in their infinite wisdom, asked me (the apprentice) to be supervisor for the night shift. How this makes sense I don't know (there are 5 other fully qualified technicians here) but it's an extra £75 for today's shift so im not complaining. And if something goes wrong I can't be held accountable as im the apprentice and shouldn't even be doing work without supervision.. go figure.. win win for me! Maybe it's a test I don't know!

hitmanNo2 Posted September 20, 2016 Report Share Posted September 20, 2016 That looks like it will be very cool. Definitely keeping an eye out. Link to post Share on other sites
Lone_Bullet Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 I always detested strongly the windowed computer cases with light effects. Hell, my case came with a window ( Corsair 850D ) and specially ordered another non window side panel! I prefer my cases top quality, luxury industrial style. Like Lian-Li and Silverstone. But they stopped innovating. Not to mention I'm still mad at MSI for resetting my motherboard setting in which I've shut down the onboard blue LED's. *frootcagio* bright and doing nothing but flicker at random! Yesterday I've discovered something beautiful though. Amber LED's. Well, to be exact, RGB LED's set at the amber colour. Softly glowing as if there were tubes inside that case! Case will be a Dancase or N-Case M1. OEM by Lian-Li Can you imagine the old school glory? Still not liking the rest of the RGB hype though. But I guess it's better than the 'all UV reactive' hype from ten years ago RETRO TUBES MAN! Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 Got any good examples of cases running amber lights? Link to post Share on other sites
Lone_Bullet Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 No. Just RGB motherboards and RGB strips that may or may not be controlled by the motherboard Sent from my C6603 using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites
amateurstuntman Posted September 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 Yeah, build in some nixie tubes as a clock... Link to post Share on other sites
Lone_Bullet Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 Love nixie tube clock! Damn shame half of them come with blue LEDs underneath the tubes and all of them are expensive Sent from my C6603 using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites
shmook Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 Seen the nixie watch? Link to post Share on other sites
amateurstuntman Posted September 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 Seen it, desired it, felt bad that I don't have one. It's on my list of things to buy. Quite far down though. Link to post Share on other sites
shmook Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 Yar, me too. I do like a big watch, but that thing is *fruitcage* huge. Making me smile is watching secrets of the SAS. Not even sure the interviewees (sp?) are even legit, but the jock in episode 2 is making me smile with his deadpan humour. I'm also drunk. Link to post Share on other sites
PureSilver Posted September 23, 2016 Report Share Posted September 23, 2016 Case will be a Dancase or N-Case M1. OEM by Lian-Li I'm a long-time Lian-Li user (V1000B+, now a V1020R) and wouldn't have anything else. How can you tell what Lian-Li OEM? Link to post Share on other sites
amateurstuntman Posted September 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2016 Advertised as such in both cases. I have a Silverstone FT02 and I love it. I also don't have a window in my case. They are nice but nobody makes a mATX or ITX board with support for two M.2 drives. My ATX board has that. Link to post Share on other sites
Lone_Bullet Posted September 23, 2016 Report Share Posted September 23, 2016 I expect the SATAexpress seen on a load of motherboards to disappear since there are nondrives for it and it's old tech before launched. It will be replaced by U.2 connections on future boards. Sent from my C6603 using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites
