I'd post in Roadside, but rules is rules. It's fast.

They get pulled over. Heisenberg is driving and the cop asks him "Do you know how fast you were going?" "No, but I know exactly where I am," Heisenberg replies. The cop says "You were doing 55 in a 35." Heisenberg throws up his hands and shouts "Great! Now I'm lost!" The cop thinks this is...

Who thinks American Pharaoh will take the Triple Crown? Who are the trifecta/superfecta picks? I'm going to bet against AP: If he chokes as the other recent Triple Crown contenders have, there's going to be a huge pool to collect from. Here's the morning line: 1 Mubtaahij 10-1 2 Tale...

I asked this on a Civic board and have received zero responses, so I'll submit it to SVTP's collective wisdom: My manual Civic LX has a brake assist for hills, that I find a hindrance rather than a help. It's not nearly as bad as a BMW's clutch delay valve, but I know how to drive a manual and...

http://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/stephen-hawking-working-new-theory-everything One thing I'm curious about is whether this supports the idea that the total, unbounded but finite universe should be about 2x10^23 times the size of the observable universe. It seems a little vague, but the main point...

If we could get rid of Venus' greenhouse gasses, what would its surface temperature be like?

I am now three cars removed from my SVT product. In 2001, I finally got into something reasonable quick, a year old 9K mile Ford SVT Contour, coming from a '92 Sentra sedan with the 5M. Almost seven years later, I fulfilled a personal vow and got a BMW, a 2003 540 with the 6-speed. In early...

It took me long enough :) , but I just noticed that since the site update quoting embedded pictures no longer shrinks them. Any chance of getting this feature back, or too big a PITA?

I'm trying to run a VHD file (clocking in at a slim 121 GB) of my old XP system in VirtualBox. The host system is an AMD 8350 eight core on an ASUS M5A99X motherboard, with 16 gigs of RAM. As you can see below, I'm dedicating four processor cores and plenty of RAM to the VM, but every time I...

I'm probably just blind and it's right in front of me, but: I'm not seeing the user control panel on the new layout. I use this a lot to see which threads I'd posted in have new activity. Is it still here somewhere?

As the title says: I have Linux Mint installed on a 30 GB SSD. I disconnected my main Windows drive, booted in Linux for a few minutes, during which time I listened to some music on the second drive. Since reconnecting my Windows drive, the second physical drive doesn't show up in disk...

I know, you're stupider for having read the subject line, but let me explain: Building a space elevator, under Earth's gravity, would require materials of a strength that we can't currently make. Existing materials could do it under Lunar or even Martian gravity, but not on Earth. Part of...

Okay, since the other thread turned into angels dancing on pinheads, I want to give this another crack in its own thread. The universe: Finite but unbounded, bounded, or infinite? Will there be a big crunch or a heat death? Is the universe's expansion accelerating, or was time passing at a...

(csb) Last night, I posted to the forum on Zynga's website. I suggested that they purchase a competitor's mobile social chess app, to integrate its features into Chess With Friends. I can understand that Zynga wouldn't want their competition's products mentioned on their own site, but let's be...

I'd rather put this in Smackdown/Politics, but rules is rules.

I'm trying to hook up my TV to my computer, as a second monitor. Sounds simple, right? Here's the connection to my video card (cable going to the TV is on the right) : (yes, some canned air is in order here. :) ) ...And here's the back of my 47" Vizio, with the cable connected via an...

My 32GB iPhone 4 is currently running iOS 4.2.1. Hanging with Friends now refuses to run with anything less than 4.3, and so I want to upgrade to 4.3.3 but no later. Apple (say it holding your tongue, and it's still an understatement) won't let me upgrade to anything less than the latest and...

I am now two cars removed from my SVT product. The BMW was going to bankrupt me with repairs, so I dumped it today in favor of this:
