<3> tell your wife were all pulling for her here
<2> Jet would a 350w ps be ok?
<3> damn. 3k here is getting snow too
<4> ok, here's the rest of the story yesterday http://www.advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=115752&page=8 (first 8 pages of the thread were setting it up and BS)
<4> i was with Rad and Gummee!
<3> All three of us, pierce, gummee and me, went down(crashed) in the snow and had to double back
<3> Pierce had to ride with no peg or rear brake, he did a great job
<3> We then dropped down to the coast
<3> EHEHEHEHHE
<3> About an hour after you guys left in the rain, hail 'n snow, it cleared up.
<4> rad is a really good rider. been riding since he was a kid, has several bikes (ktm 640 adventure, and a VFR, he's had a r1100s and a GS)
<4> I wished I'd had a camera, but I couldn't find my P&S and didn't wanna bring hte SLR for fear of getting it soaked
<4> I rode that as a raintest for my newer gear.
<3> potential disaster is worth bringingit
<3> or your cheapy
<4> pants got a B, they aren't really waterproof, just water resistant
<4> my jacket did quite well. probalby also a B. I didn't get wet, but the jacket was just starting to get damp inside the shell
<4> B+
<4> I have a rainfly overjacket somewhere, I _know_ thats dry
<4> I need over-overpants :D
<4> rainpants
<3> yea
<4> they had them at road rider for cheap last spring, .... this spring I'll have to look, and buy a pair. i got the top already
<4> I got the rainshell jacket in XXL so it would fit over anything
<5> yayz.
<4> the air is so intensely CLEAN after a good north storm
<5> What, man?
<5> What-man is from Earthbound
<6> ?
<5> I don't know, the name just sounds familiar from an old SNES game I used to play.
<6> ok, didn't know what your were talking about
<7> yeah i'm nuts
<6> well that ok, we all are
<6> in one way or another
<5> anyone have that vmware software ****
<5> the one that doesn't need a host os
<5> it's free now anyway?
<2> would a 250watt ps slow down a pci express card?
<8> ac205, you're gettin annoying asking the same questions over & over in all channels
<9> so, anyone have a casio EX camera? those shirtpocket sized ones?
<4> i like the canon pocket cameras, the 'elphs'
<9> wonder if anyone knows (from experience, not some bull**** :-) if they're good
<8> google reviews of it
<4> like, this http://www.steves-digicams.com/2005_reviews/ex-s500.html
<9> yeah. on the price checking now
<4> ? is that what you mean?
<9> that's one I was looking at as well as its big brother ex750
<4> http://www.steves-digicams.com/2005_reviews/ex-s500_pg5.html sounds good. it looks fragile
<9> hehe. supposedly dell has it cheaper than costco.
<9> I'm not gonna be rumbling with it. sheesh
<4> those shutter-leaf lens covers like that (canon uses them too) are fragile if you stuff the thing in pockets
<4> a tiny bit of grit gets in there and they can start sticking
<4> and not opening or not closing (or opening/closing slowly)
<4> it needs some kind of felt sleeve you put it in before pocketing it
<10> anyone know why im getting the error 'the file msrdp.ocx was not registerable as an activex component' when i try loading it into a vb application? i got the ocx right from microsoft.
<11> try regsvr32 \path\to\msrdp.ocx
<11> oh
<11> "registerable"
<11> that's weird
<11> VB6 or VB.NET ?
<12> Maybe it forgot to pay the registration fees.
<10> vb6
<8> this is a known issue. The wrapper generater fails to
<8> generate correct method for returning an enum value. Here is a workaround.

<9> the ribs are on sale for $2.99/lb at costco. buck/lb cheaper than normal for the same ones. mmm
<8> they're 3 weeks old
<9> nuh uh
<8> they're human ribs?
<10> thanks
<13> lol
<14> So. Car has "check engine" light on. no way to read the trouble code via the dashboard (like my old jeep was able to). $80 later, I buy an obd2 code reader at the auto parts store, just to tell me it doesnt think my catalytic converter is working as good as it should be. Wtf.
<14> thats not the engine.
<14> so check engine is incorrect indicator to turn on
<12> z0g: That is why my check engine light was on. I had to fix it or not p*** the clean air exam. $700.
<0> check engine comes on when the emission control sysetm is not functioning correctly
<14> At least the code box lets me shut the light off. I shut it off and it hasnt come back on.
<0> that's usually documented in the manual
<9> oh ****. didn't notice the ez-s500 didn't have an optical viewfinder. ok, that ones off the list
<14> There arent any emission tests in Florida anymore. **** if i care about the cat... I never had one put on my Jeep after the exhaust system fell off in the middle of the road one day.
<14> and $700??? you got JACKED
<12> There aren't? How'd they manage that? I want to do the same thing in Maryland.
<14> a cat shouldnt cost more then $300 installed.
<12> For a van?
<14> shouldnt matter that much
<4> my old volvo will need a new cat to p*** smog next time for sure. 2 years ago, the gas station smog guys said they had to really heat it up to get it to p***. this time my mechanic said he had to race it on the freeway in 2nd, squeal into the stand and slap it on the machine immediately to get a clean enough reading ;-O
<4> its got 300,000 or more miles on it
<4> so its time
<14> peerce: you cant just make buddies with a guy who can write it off as p***ing?
<4> z0g^; state requires machines that are digital and hooked in.
<14> wow. crazy state there, that california.
<14> so, have him hook the machine up to his car. :D
<14> or any car that p***es
<12> Maryland is the same way. That is why I had to replace the catalytic converter or fail the test.
<4> in the old days you left a 20 on your dash, and the guy just wouldn't stick the wand in the exhaust, get a perfect reading, and thank you when you picked up the car :D
<14> call it your own
<0> ya, why would you want to actually do anything to save the environment
<0> lets poison the planet as fast and effectively as we can
<0> especially when the alternative introduces paying for polluting now, rather than later
<12> I no longer care. The political environment is going to kill us all first so **** the ecological environment.
<14> im with SD :D
<4> nah, I gotta fix it, I know. it p***es when its hot and I spend very little time idling in traffic or at stops
<4> my motorcycle has a cat :D
<4> and a o2 sensor
<9> heh. buy.com has the camera cheaper than costco and any shipping costs should be offset by not paying tax
<4> i replaced the sensor at 72000 miles even though there's no smog test for bikes
<9> glad I didn't buy it
<14> my car has two freaking o2 sensors. one before and one after the cat. hence why it can diagnose its own cat :(
<9> is 1gig sd for $60 good? :)
<4> costco online and costco store prices are often different.
<0> Barsky: in the US, probably not
<12> Barry: You can get a 2G for about $40 more.
<14> peerce: well yeah changing that sensor keeps the engine running good.
<9> wow. came down that much? cool
<0> I just bought a 2gb SD for $99.99 here
<4> Barsky; my cameras are all CF, i dunno SD
<9> SD70MAC: of sd ?
<14> peerce: my jeep ran like *** when the o2 sensor crapped out
<12> Barry: Affirmative.
<9> does sd come in diff speeds/quality?
<9> this stuff was sandisk
<4> the beemer, you pull a 'cat code plug' and it reverts to a open loop program... it runs a bit richer, it actually runs a LOT smoother.
<14> Yeah there are different speds
<12> I'll be making obtainification of one in the next couple of months.
<12> Different speeds, yes. Quality? I doubt it.
<9> anyway, not ready to worry about sd yet. nothing to put it in
<4> the closed loop version runs very lean
<9> well, I'd have to believe that 2gig sd for $40 is slooooow by comparison. but, haven't researched it yet
<12> By the time my summer trip comes I kind of hope to have a pair of 2Gs in addition to the 1 I already have.
<9> but I do believe in if it looks too good to be true, it probably is :)
<14> peerce: so its a pretty sophisticated bike ya? ECU?
<0> BaRFaTWRK: he said $40 more... he meant 2gb for $100 I think
<4> on my 2 newer canon cameras (s70 and 350D), there's a huge difference in actual performance between 1X CF and the UltraII stuff.
<12> Not for $40, for $40 MORE.
<9> oh. misread. cool
<9> so solly
<0> I bought 2gb SanDisk for C$100, I have no idea what speed it is
<9> suppose with a 7mp cam, 2gig isn't bad to have, even if I don't use it a lot
<0> it was regular $220, $120 instant savings
