  1. GEOSHITTIES!!!

     

    Oh wait...

     

    Holy shit Angelfire still exists. Freewebs is now webs.com

     

    I'd probably take up cinder on his offer though. Free websites usually force ads and stuff.

     

    No ads on mine either. It was a promotional offer years ago, that they don't offer anymore. My account is for life!

     

    I like this idea - however you do know i will be posting controversial topics, but nothing like racism.

    And it will only be temporary until i can afford a quick domain check out. :)

     

    Actually scratch that, this place is having a promotion again. It's not quite as much in the feature department as mine, but it's still PHP and 1 MySQL.

     

    https://www.awardspace.net/signup.html

  2. I have a FREE hosting account I got awhile ago, I barely use it. I could certainly hook you up with a sub-domain and some space.

     

    There are limits on filesize though, so you won't be able to put up any files meant for downloading. I think it's like a 1-2MB limit on filesize.

     

    It also supports PHP/ has 1 MySQL database, which you could use if need be, as I'm not making use of it.

     

    Beats the average Free account you get these days.

  3. Hey your damn holiday netted me a deal on 1.5Tb hard drives.

     

    Seagate's, not those shitty WD Blue or Green drives, I'll never touch another WD drive again in my life...look forward to seeing them go bankrupt, since they're going "Cheap China" on all their drives now.

     

    $60 a piece.

     

    All is fair in love and land stealing...

  4. tell us more stuff cinder

     

    Like what? I know a fair bit about cars, motorcycles and other small engine vehicles. And Electronics.

     

    Beyond that...not much. I can ARC and MIG weld, can't do TIG.

    Hmm does one even need to know anything beyond cars/motorcycles/electronics and welding?

     

    Pro-Tip - Welding a gas tank full of gas is easy. Run a hose from your exhaust with the car running into the gas tank...and weld away. Well, in theory...and I've seen it done, but I wouldn't do it!

  5. That's good to know, I didn't think boosting would even work if the donor car wasn't running unless it had some sort of monster sized battery. Even then I would be nervous it would drain it. I guess not though.

     

    I'll give it a shot, It might have circuitry like that because everything in this car seems to be computerized though.

     

    It won't without it running, have it running when you boost the other car. Even if it's the same size battery the other car would have, you'll wind up with a reverse voltage drop across all of the electrical in the donor car.

  6. I would start it but I need to get a new battery (still under warranty though) and then I have to get it to the shop for a new crankshaft position sensor. I would try jumping it but my other car is probably much too small to jump this car heh. (2.2 I4 Vs 3.8 V6)

     

    You may boost it just fine, without the battery if it's carbureted and has no electronics controlling any of the fuel or ignition system. You won't have any lights or accessories mind you, but once the engine is running the battery does NOTHING in that department and serves only to provide power to the cars mechanical components and charge the battery.

    If there's any sort of sense circuit for the battery, which would indicate electronic components SOMEWHERE, this won't work.

     

    The other car running when doing so is PLENTY, you're drawing off the other cars battery as well as it's alternator.

     

    Just an FYI while I'm at it, NEVER boost a small vehicle (ATV, Motorcycle etc) with the donor car running, the amperage from the alternator WILL destroy the charging circuit in the smaller vehicle.

  7. I think youll be fine, it takes forever for gas to brake down. You might have sediments at the bottom, or a thin layer of water due to condensation though.

     

    I believe youd have a bigger issue with the seals of the engine drying out if you didnt turn the engine often.

     

    WRONG! Gas goes bad in a few months, and it varnishes metal components like carburetors, this process starts within a few weeks. Easy to plug a pin sized hole with this varnish, which is what the size of holes in carb needles are, starving the engine of fuel in the process.

    Hell the oxidization alone over time can EAT A HOLE in your gas tank if left long enough.

     

    Try leaving a motorcycle or snowmobile sitting for 6+ months with gas in it, and get it started...you won't without Carb cleaner blown through the air intake and a bit of ether in the gas tank.

     

    If you have fuel injection (especially electronic, where the computer will compensate) this is less of an issue, but you better burn it all off and fill with a fresh tank of gas and dump injector cleaner in there.

    Any time you are going to leave gas sit in the tank for more than a couple weeks, throw some Stabil in the tank.

  8. Phucking phone junkies...

     

    I wish I could buy a phone with nothing more than PHONE and TEXT capabilities, with a QWERTY keyboard. No internet browser, no other useless overpriced Data Plan required crap. If you need a phone to tell you were the nearest restaurant or Starbucks is, you're a tool. Weather? Look up in the sky meatstick!

     

    I have a Blackberry, only because it was the cheapest phone I could find with the above. I've outright disabled Data services, NOTHING is allowed to connect to the internet.

  9. I had 100% condition Power Armor on, and a companion. I laid a bunch of plasma mines down around the walkway and cliff, then sat back and shot him with Gauss Rifle knocking his sword out of his hands.

     

    Took a bunch of chems and yes used probably 15~ Stimpaks. Helps to set your companion to wait far back with a sniper rifle and set them to be aggressive.

     

    What'd I do when the General came in after? I RAN! Robots smoked their asses, and then I came back out. lol

  10. Anyone else wind up finishing alot of quests without even knowing about them to begin with?

     

    I took out all those Super Mutants on Black Mountain, completing a Quest I didn't even have. There were 3 or 4 others where the same thing happened.

     

    The quest you get, to get the Power Armor was FUCKING NUTS. The only way I could beat that family of Arms Dealers was to go in and run to the back, Stealth Boy on then and lay a trail of mines down up the stairs to the back hall. Then when those ran out I just started heaving grenades down the hall.

     

    I had a hard time beating Legate too, I finished the game at only Level 7 or 8.

  11. Finished it once.

     

    NCR? GTFO!

    Legion? GTFO!

     

    I went with Yes Man and the robots.

     

    I'll play through again, taking my time to explore everything. Not sure if I'll try and please everyone, or piss everyone off...but I ain't balancing anything either way. I'll probably get me some Power Armor again from the Brotherhood by playing nice, and then all bets are off.

  12. I had nothing to do with the fight. I was just trying to help save someones life. It was awful. He was KOed on the floor and they were stomping on his head.

     

    Not nice - a group on one guy is sick.

     

    No I believe the term is "Fucking Pussies". ANYONE who can't fight 1 on 1 is a pussy, end of story.

  13. I can't tell the differfence between Gin and Vodka...at the bar. That's because they serve domestic SHIT.

     

    I was once asked by a bardtender "How's your gin and tonic?" I didn't ask for gin, and I don't drink gin. If she hadn't said anything, I wouldn't have known.

     

    Vodka...I drink Stolichnaya, Smirnoff is ASS, Grey Goose is yuppie Vodka that tastes like I'm licking a dirty window.

  14. You could always just go real ghetto and cut two 2x4's long enough to push the board up straight and just wedge them under in the middle, one at the back and one at the front. No scres, nails or glue required.

     

    Problem solved!

     

    If you want it really steady, connect the 2x4's together across the top and bottom with two more screwed together, like a square.
