daddy:: Something like that (maybe). It won't fail, but won't survive as-is either. Something will change. --- daddy:: There's a problem -- currency working against economy. Bank controlled debt based currencies are destroying the economy, at least here in USA (not sure about Euro). Think of bank owned currencies as stock fraud like the (USA) internet tech bubble or the mortgage fraud + housing bubble on a much larger scale. If you don't believe me, believe Nightwatch on Europe... 3 Nov 2011:: ...add that to 8 Nov. 2011:: I will add that if you rule the money, you control the country. Same goes for USA as our weak government allows the currency to be ruled by banks. Banking fraud -- and fraudulent bank notes -- always fail in the end although most likely too late before the victims wake up stripped of wealth, businesses, jobs, homes, land, ecomomy, retirement promises, infrastructure maintenence, etc... they and their nations still in debt to the banks.

hgbn:: Youtube comments are trivial. Not trivial is the rest of us, the debtors and borrowers in ignoring traditional cultural advice about savings. Debtors exhibit far more nasty behavior than any youtube poast ever seen, when the topic of savings arises. Granted we are forced into our debt by legal tender laws the banks bribed the .govs to create, making savings impossible, and there's far more frustration building about it than you can shake a trivial youtube comment at. Jedi:: That sounds like a copy~paste off a youtube comment, with cleaned up politeness and spelling. We just might be headed for a bad ending for, in the words of Fred Reed, "These days, we are the Nazis." UK:: UK this thread is worthless without links. Remember, youtube is not a real forum, thankfully. Enjoy it for what it is, not for what it's not -- did that make sense? At least the youtube comments are blunt in a PC world. The bad spelling can be fun because I am such a hardcore spelling bee myself.

DOGFIGHT Dave:: When I see a dog walking in front of its owner, I cross to the other side of the street. The thing about dogs is the victim often has no choice in the matter, unlike with the treacherous tubs, killer cocounut trees, and perilous pails of water.

Really Quick Question
Lexx_Luthor replied to jjddoo's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
No, if I recall, just once and it will make a new weapon file with all weapons. If you later add or delete or change a weapon, yea you need to run weap ed again...everytime you change something. -

There's another one, well kinda. Recall when we nucked Spain back in 62? Somebody made an oddball movie about that, apparently fictionally following the surviving air crew after bailout. All I remember was WEIRD and even surreal. Very, extremely strange movie. Some cool but equally bizarre music score also. Don't recall the movie's name, and can't find it easily. -

Ceaser, the BoB movie did all that in the cockpit....panicking, looking around, and, BoB even had pilot blinded by the sun and he got bounced and killed in his cockpit for it. I actually don't consider TG an aviation movie, at all. Zip nothing there. -
I find it oddly refreshing, totally lacking in pc, a real romp. Its fun to read the comments and sometimes the baddies do get a takedown which is also fun to see. Not all of them are like that, especially the more subject/hardware specific vids that fewer would goto see.

One I saw as a squish was Those Magnificent Men in their Flying Machines but all I remember was some interesting rival characters, sweet flying low (and slow mind you FC ) over the Euro terrain, and of course the best looking airplanes (well after SAC bombers of course). Don't recall the 6 Lightnings though. I always wondered if the Federal Reserve and IRS coup never happened there would have been no debt financed WW1 (Germany and France stopped paying .gov workers in gold in 1913) then WW1 and Boshevism/Nazism and WW2 and WW2.5 (cold war) would never have happened and the free market aviation based on self liquidating (non bank) credit seen before 1914 would have taken us to the planet Mars by the 1960s instead of bank.gov taking us to Vietnam and more debt. Granted there would have been no SAC B-58s, and no SAC, but perhaps civilian equivalents for filthy rich Mach 2 enthusiasts by the 1940s. Don't underestimate the power of the free market when banks don't control the money. -
DLC Screwed up my Mod Folders Aircraft inis
Lexx_Luthor replied to danwatto's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
W, can't you install DLC into a dummy game, then copy over the new thing into your real game? Recall the advice often given, which I have always done, to unzip downloaded mods into a blank folder outside the game, then copy stuff over to the game. Can DLC be installed like that, or at least some of them like airplanes (not AI DLC of course). -
mmm...see what happens....edit works great. Do you have a PB max resolution option at 640x480 ?

Strategic Air Command, starring Jimmy Stewart (who actually flew SAC bombers) In its day, the SAC movie got alot of young men to enlist in the Air Force, I bet more so than Tom Cruise did for the NAVY. And....Jimmy Stewart did it with bombers. Of course the biggest stars of that movie were the airplanes ... and the clouds and contrails yea!!! -
Dave this nurse will help you feel better. As a bonus, you can be sure you will never forget your anniversary. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-l29_rJ3_Y4 Free Tip unless you already know it. If you have 24hr stomach virus, you can't keep liquids down. But -- freeze your fave carbonated soda in shot glasses. Then lick or suck on it like popsicle. As its frozen, this puts severe limits how fast you can drink it, so it stays down, and it tastes SO GOOD because its your fave soda frozen and you are thirsty like a man in the desert because you can't otherwise drink anything. To me it seems carbonated soda stays down better during the 24 hours of what I call the "jimi hendrix experience" but you have to drink it slowly...but you can't drink it slow because it tastes so good, unless you freeze it then you have to drink it very slow.

Yep, good point about the country fellas. City or country, maybe its a top down effect -- men and women see every day the corrupt government and Party. Communism and the new foreign debt based corporate feudalism have always treated Chinese men and women like toys. If toys get run over by the system, the system walks on by. CV, this is one...."GOLD IS THE CURE FOR THE JOB-DRAIN" by Fekete. Its kinda deep, and new for me, but this one sentance covers the base idea... He's saying...ie...overseas labour has *always* been cheaper, but not until the wild swings in intersest rates after the 1971 US gold default were businesses forced to take advantage of overseas sweatshops. Its an interesting take. Perhaps even more so than currency debasement, wild swings in interest rates cause problems for businesses' finances...while the banks profit, as Fekete notes.

Default cockpit view angle
Lexx_Luthor replied to mppd's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
You can also slide the pilot (player) around inside the cockpit. That is the Offset=x,y,z vectors. Position=x,y,z vector deals with the placement of the whole cockpit, player is along for the ride. Its kinda neat how it works. Use the Position vector to slide the cockpit+player together around the airplane, and the Offset vector to slide the player around inside the cockpit. -
Yep. Good point about the city fellas. Yea but UK when you get even older, if your lucky, you may see another picture emerge. CV:: Several reasons, but Antal Fekete has some interesting thoughts on this that are new, related to floating currency interest rates damaging businesses (excepting banks which feed on the floats). Its no coincidence that China makes most of our (USA) consumer products AND holds so much of our debt. I'll see if I can roundup ready something he wrote.

That's rough. Found a Chinese news clip, they show the whole thing. The interesting thing, the official "party" news organs are making lots of hay over this. Apparently, there was another similar event with a boy (moderately injured), but with Yeu Yeu in the news, everybody rushed to stop the truck. If you have a system that treats men and women, boys and girls, as if they were all disposable servants -- persons rather than souls -- you get stuff like this. Here in USSA, there is an attempt by local yahoos to pass "laws" that if you call emergency, you have to pay for it. Result: ignore an emergency when it happens. I suspect something similar here. You see stories of souls helping, and then they get sued or charged with causing the event they tried to help out with. UK:: Exactly --- " PERSON " Sadly, I *know* how you think there. That lesson is a long term trap. When we can pull out of that trap, see the world full of lost souls, its a whole new universe.

Last B-53 dismantled...

At least museaumate the body case. That would be nice to see. -
Smooth UK thanks! a pozer The real man, the real "algor," was Albert Goering, brother of Hermann. Albert was arrested by the Gestapo several times, however was released with the help of his brother. I didn't know that. Al Goering paid a post war price for his last name, which shows how we don't want to pay attention. I am not impressed by the Nazis. I am slighlty more impressed with us, but not by much.

Well it makes sense. Ye olde steel trucks make robust Earth penetrators. Try scoring a crater using the new plasti-foam cars.
