<0> peerce hehe
<1> why would you want to hack a perfectly good music player?!?
<2> dunno
<2> i dont like the orig folders
<2> all i want is a big lists of name and artists
<0> nice tool
<3> hey, did i mention i wanna kill sbc
<1> you mean, heh, The NEW! AT&T ?
<1> snicker
<3> oh yah, that's right :P
<1> you know its bad when you pick the name "AT&T" as the lesser of two evils.
<3> yup
<1> now go rent "The Presidents Analyst" with James Coburn...
<3> how bout this enron film?
<3> any good?
<1> TPC - The Phone Company, is the real evil, not the russkies or whatever. :D
<1> I've got it ripped on my PC and haven't watched it yet.
<1> heard its a very good documentary
<1> asks more questions than it answers
<1> MirrorMask rocked, thats on DVD now.
<1> ah, results from today's stage of the Tour of California... http://www.amgentourofcalifornia.com/race-live/standings/Stage-2.html
<1> phew, that was close
<1> top 22 racers within 43 seconds
<1> then a 3 minute gap
<1> ouch, poor mexican came in 32 minutes later.
<3> that's nice
<4> What sport, cycling?
<3> yea
<4> Or motorbike?
<1> bicycling.
<3> the Tour de California this week
<1> tour de france format race in california.
<1> stage 2 was today, martinez to san jose, via some gnarly hills in the east bay, including a 10% grade
<4> That's what I thought. Oh, we aren't in the top 10 (apart from one dude). Usually we have more than that...
<1> huh? USA is the first 5 today.
<5> salsa con queso hands out ***
<3> peerce, Dov is aussie
<1> oh. heh.
<5> my condolences dov
<1> this is home turf for most of the US cyclists, as many of them are native northern californians
<3> un PC joke ahead:
<1> as this is bicycle central for the US
<3> if they told the mexican dude there was a border to cross at the end of the race, he'd have taken first
<5> peerce, you ever been to nashville?
<1> npx; no
<5> there's a series of grades coming out of there to the west, they've got lanes for truckers to pull off in if they lose it
<1> closest i've been to there was atlanta for a SIGgraph in 1989
<5> pretty fun stretch of road
<1> npx; they do that on all kinda hills here... gravel traps
<1> brake runoff areas.
<4> I used to race.
<4> Too many accidents ruled it out later in life.
<1> they give them a straight offramp with about 1/4 mile of crushed granite, then a bunch of piles of several cubic yards each of crushed granite
<4> Like when I turned 14 ;)
<3> peerce, any idea how to get this as a decal? http://moike.net/rgm-paint/rgm-tail-art1.jpg
<3> peerce, vinyl cutter guys can't do it because of too much detail
<1> Ted-Lap; silk screen onto clear film if you want a bunch, otherwise hand paint
<6> I am a Vampire.
<6> I worship my ego and I worship my life, for I am the only God that is.
<6> I am proud that I am a predatory animal and I honor my animal instincts.
<6> I exalt my rational mind and hold no belief that is in defiance of reason.
<6> I recognize the difference between the worlds of truth and fantasy.
<6> I acknowledge the fact that survival is the highest law.
<6> I acknowledge the Powers of Darkness to be hidden natural laws
<6> through which I work my magic.
<6> I know that my beliefs in Ritual are fantasy but the magic is real,
<6> and I respect and acknowledge the results of my magic.
<6> I realize there is no heaven as there is no hell,
<5> the vinyl guys can do pretty incredible detail if they're good, it's just easy to **** up
<1> ya know, .lv.lv.cox.net was permbanned for a long time.
<1> i'm remembering why
<2> cant i just make the ipod display the songs in the folders that i put them in?
<3> npx, friend of mine who's doin that on the back of his rig... he's been turned down by plenty of vinyl guys
<5> Ted-Lap, probably smaller ones that can't afford to do a piece 3 or 4 times to get it perfect, trying to just do lettering on boats and ****
<1> WebDawg; it runs on playlists not folders.
<5> Ted-Lap, my uncle runs a vinyl business, and I'm sure he could do that easily
<1> Ted-Lap; why doesn't he just have it hand painted ?
<3> npx, got an email?
<3> peerce, not sure...
<7> FLASHBANG
<1> Ted-Lap; a custom sign painter should be able to do that easily
<3> will that be good to put on a tailsection?
<1> sure
<3> notice the url... you know how elitist it must be
<5> Ted-Lap, I don't remember it - want a phone number?
<1> or paint it on clear vinyl if he prefers, then apply it.
<3> npx, yah
<1> any harley kustom painter should be able to do that kinda stuff easily
<5> yeah, it'd definitely be easier to do in paint - to do the shading on the girl you'd have to use a transparent overlay
<5> it'd take like 4 hours to get it all on properly
<5> but it's doable, and with vinyl you could remove it and put it on something else
<1> I'd just paint it directly ont he tailpiece of the bike, screw it.
<3> cool, thanks npx
<1> thats a cheap piece of plastic to replace.
<5> np ted
<3> peerce, no its not
<3> peerce, you can't replace his tail section
<1> oh, this is FOR moike, not just swiping his art? :D
<3> right
<1> vinyl might be problematic if its a compound curve
<3> peerce, his tail section is a complete custom gl*** job he did
<1> oh.
<3> took an old fzr tail section and cut it up and regl***'d it to match
<1> k
<5> i thought you were talking about on the back of a semi - you're going to have to compromise a bit of detail to get that scaled down to ~6"x6" in vinyl
<3> http://moike.net/rgm-paint/decals/IMG_5260.JPG
<3> http://moike.net/rgm-paint/decals/IMG_5261.JPG
<3> there's teh size
<1> ok, so its a fairly flat section
<1> so paint on vinyl shouldn't be hard
<1> more like 9x6" actually, but whatever
<1> it would be more permanent to paint it directly on the tail then clearcoat it in.
<1> but it looks like he's already done the clearcoat
<3> nope
<3> the paint guy strictly recommended against clearcoating it in
<1> this is for that racing sidecar suicide rig ?
<1> oh? ok.
<3> suicide rig? heh
<3> yes, that one
<3> the street legal kneeler
<1> yeah
<1> :)
<3> he's got an f1 kneeler too... r1 motor
<1> the one that got the folks irate in the letters to the roadwise guy :D
<3> him and the fiance are racing it in 2 seasons
<1> heh, i tell you about my adventures up on skyline on friday?
<1> ...speaking of suicide...
<3> nope
<1> met about 20 of the advrider crew for lunch at Alices...
<1> ... of course, its raining n ****.
<1> so folks are STILL showing up but the 3 of us from scotts valley had to get bakc to work, so we headed back down 35 (I wanted to go the coast, but the other 2 wanted to do 35-9)....
<1> and of course, as SOON as we climb out of alice's, its snow.
<1> and more snow.
<5> that ****s ***
<1> pretty soon the road is covered in 1"
<3> hahahaha
<3> that rocks
<1> pretty soon the tire tracks are becoming less slushy.
<1> get up to where that last climb is up to Saratoga Gap, at about 2400' elevation... the hill tops out at 2600... and my tail goes wag...wigg.wagg..slide. and I'm down.
<1> FOOOOK.
<5> the heater core in my ride took a **** on me
<3> ahhh damn dude
<1> k, so I slide over, shut the bike off. pick it up with brute force.
<3> sorry to hear
<1> dayum, busted off the right peg and brake lever
<1> nah, I'm fine.
<3> still ****s
<1> ok, so I start the thing, and get another 100 yrds up the hill, slip-slide, and whoops at 0mph, dayumit.
<8> hmmm
<1> ok, this time, i can't even roll it up the wrong lane to get to the right side, it just wants to slide
