Too much unrealistic added detail to the dust behind and to the right of the rider. IMO, remove it and it will be perfect.

That's pretty nifty. I don't know how often I would personally use something like that. Since I use Chrome, I can just select text on a web page, right click and select "Search Google for 'xxxxxxx'". For chats, whenever you select text in Trillian, it automatically copies it to the clipboard so you can just CTRL+T, CTRL+V in Chrome.

I guess if you do more work with Word and Outlook files, it would come in handy.

I like the detail you brought out in the shirt and hat. It's not obnoxious or unrealistic in any way, just a slight improvement.

I got the Developer Preview installed yesterday and aside from royally fucking over my 7 install, I'm pretty impressed with it. I picked up a few screenshots for you guys. I couldn't figure out how to get shots of the Metro UI but it's pretty plain as-is until 3rd party devs create content for their programs, which is the whole point of this release. I'll be playing with it more in the future but for now this is all I have. Click on the images to see them full size:





2 of the cool new things would be the new Task Manager and multiple monitor taskbars support.

They are called banana plugs. I recently used the following ones on some speaker cables I made and I'm very pleased with them:

The hole going through the frame on my bike couldn't have been larger than half an inch. The inner diameter of the tubing was 3/16".

For cars, the worm style screw hose clamps are great.



You can see though, the screw portion of it takes up a lot of space. I would have preferred to use those but there's just no possible way I could have fit them.

i have never played half life. doesn't look interesting to me i rather play some other kind of games but lately i can't find time to game i work alot.

IMO, it's a classic and every gamer should play it. It's got elements of FPS, strategy and puzzle games. Loads of fun.

Shut the fuck up both of you. I don't want to split this thread like the other one.

No, I'm just in-game which you can't see because I deleted you on Steam. That's what you get for being a faggot.

When I rage on BC2, I generally start alt+tabbing and answering your silly questions on MSN.

suck my nipples bitches :)

Put some vegemite on them and I will.

Seriously though, Skrewy disassembled and re-built his computer with a new motherboard. I'm impressed and proud.

Australian tested and proven design

That concerns me.

Anyway, I was just offering advice to what I had done. I have tons of zip-ties on hand and the less money I put into the bike before it's running decently, the better. My tank had a little rust and really old gas in it so I wanted filters and the fuel lines are 41 years old so I wanted to replace those as well. Like I said, if the zip-ties crap out in 2-3 years, I will hopefully have the bike running by then and will be willing to put another $8 into fuel lines and filters (which will probably need changing anyway).

Mans approached me and mentioned the zip ties as well. I did some Google searches and came up with a mixed bag of results. But, from what I gather, it's only bad on fuel-injected engines or fuel lines that have pressure. On bikes like these, the fuel lines are pretty much gravity fed and the carb itself pumps the fuel (which isn't a lot) so I don't really see a problem. It might be an issue several years from now or if the bike sits outside in the sun for a while. Either way, the least of my or Kody's problems now is the fuel line. Gotta work on getting the engine running properly, then we can worry about having things "properly" assembled.

Still though, I don't know of any clamp that would work on the small diameter holes in the frame on my bike.
