  1. Fire Fire Fire on the Flight Deck!

    When parts of the plane warp from the heat, you know it was a big fire!
  2. AWACS Nose gear

    I don't know what you might say But that mishap looks like Class A!
  3. FedEx 777 Rollout..and first flight

    How can you tell it's "spanking" new vs simply new?
  4. Qatar gets C-17

    Yeah, now at the end of the production line a bunch of export orders have been secured. I don't recall which countries offhand, but I do remember Qatar being one along with NATO.
  5. SimRaceway

    I think this will turn out to be a mistake, but I might be wrong.
  6. Just wondering

    Laser face removal?
  7. Disney buying Marvel?

    Am I missing it, or is Spiderman 4 not on that list?
  8. Rampage Extreme Sound Card Question

    I've not tried that, no, but the general rule of thumb seems to be if you're using XP the add-in card is better, but if you're using Vista it's better to use the onboard sound. That's more because of the way Vista's driver model handles sound than anything else now, plus the fact that with the powerful CPUs we have now all that stuff we used to rely on offboard-processing for sound effects is no longer necessary. However, since you aren't buying the card and have it already, just try both. First go with onboard only and try all your games and see how it fares. If something's not right, you can always disable it and put the Audigy and its software on. I don't recommend trying the other direction (audigy first) because the SB software is so big and involved and if you wind up NOT using the card it's a waste.
  9. Disney buying Marvel?

    You know who's going to be upset about this? Universal! Right now I can think off the top of my head of 3 rides at Universal Studios' Islands of Adventure here (Hulk, Dr Doom, Spiderman) that use Marvel properties! Hulk and Spidey are also 2 of the best ones there! There's no need to make it G-rated, as their film division has done harder stuff for decades now, they just want to make that big Spiderman/Iron Man/X-men money.
  10. Reviewing the Logitech G940

    This link worked fine for me: http://forum.combatace.com/index.php/topic/46424-reviewing-the-logitech-g940/ I tried it again and it still works fine. It's under reviews/hardware reviews if you go there manually.
  11. Iraq wants it MiGs back!

    Yeah, but never underestimate the power of FREE!
  12. Russia buys French Ships

    They very well might later on. However, in the near term this gets them something modern and western to examine and use under their terms, "to see how the other half lives" as it were. That knowledge can then be applied to upgrading or designing their own stuff later.
  13. Just wondering

    I've used an electric daily since I was 17. If I try and go more than about 30 hrs without shaving, though, the razor starts to choke on it around my chin. My facial hair grows way to fast and thick for my convenience. I know a guy who only shaves every other day and even then he has less on day 2 than I have after less than 24 hrs! Dammit...
  14. well it started again

    Yes, in youth vs experience youth will often lose. What sucks is once you get the experience you've lost the youth.
  15. Silly Stormtroopers

    The Robot Chicken skit of the stormtrooper bringing his daughter on the attack on Leia's ship at the beginning of Star Wars for "take your kid to work day" was hilarious too.
  16. Lockerbie bomber most likely getting out

    Well, in this case something more precious than money!
  17. Random Thoughts

    Why is it a pair of panties, but just one bra? Why does cargo go by ship, but shipments by trucks? How can you have a hot water heater, when you don't need to heat hot water?
  18. Mighty BUFF MITO

    I think "shape" has to be the most bland euphemism ever invented!
  19. I forgot Belarus had Flankers. I just watched Defiance about the Jewish resistance in Belarus last weekend, too.
  20. How quiet (or loud) is the MV-22?

    Big rotors are never quiet. The Chinook isn't known for being stealthy. The way to make a helo quieter is to lower rotor RPM, but I don't know what RPM the V-22 uses vs others.
  21. NASA Shuttle Discovery

    It was a beautiful launch. Night launches are only surpassed by sunset ones where you get banding on the exhaust trail from the setting sun.
  22. Repeat of last year?

    Sorry, but once again these countries prove just how concerned they are with the sizes of their political pricks as opposed to what is actually best for their people.
  23. Post Count Bug?

    It's just displaying your post count in the metric system.
  24. Aw, now I REALLY wish there was MP in SF2.
  25. F-105G was 1st Stealth Fighter

    Innovation in the days before Photoshop!
