Great thread this, love to read up on stuff I could only dream about doing. Great work

I'm sure you can tether for free with a phone contract? At least, I've never been charged... Could well be for phone deals.
-
Using it to make a wifi hotspot so other devices can connect to the web. It's handy but non-essential.

I got a giff gaff data sim for my ipad, cheap as chips and service has been top (since I removed the adult content block) :shameface: Only negative for me, they won't let you tether for free.

Speaking of jokes, here's a joke story in a joke newspaper! http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/5612373/Halal-secret-of-Pizza-Express.html They're after our chicken pizzas now - AAAAAARRRRRGGGHHH!

There's a vegetarian restaurant near me that doesn't serve beef cos the majority of its customers don't want to buy it.

Subway let franchise owners decide what they do and don't sell, the daily mail realised that this meant some stores could choose to only serve halal approved meats, ie, nothing pork based and started a witch hunt. The thing is, it's been happening for a couple of years now, the one in Woking doesn't serve bacon, so I don't go there. Not because I don't agree with it, just that my sub of choice has bacon in it and I don't like the "turkey rasher" they offer instead. You do realise that this is exactly the kind of calm, non alarmist and sensible response to a shop manager deciding what he/she does or doesn't want to sell in their own business, that is likely to land you squarely in the insufficiently-over-the-top-response-massive-anti-british-loony-leftie-guardianista group of humans? If everyone else responded in this way to this style of 'news' story then where would we be? Just all getting along politely, with no artificially drummed up drama, shopping wherever we chose to as individuals? IS THAT THE WORLD YOU WANT US ALL TO LIVE IN?????

Mint job! Beautiful Zed too.

I'd probably go at it like this (not saying it's right, just what I think I'd do): Nilfisk C110 Pressure Washer + Snowfoam Lance + Valet Pro pH Neutral Snow Foam DJ Ferris Dueller Iron Remover Nilfisk C110 Pressure Washer Wonder Wheels U Nilfisk C110 Pressure Washer Meguiars Lambswool Mitt + AutoGlym Shampoo Conditioner Sheet water from open hose Towel dry Meguiars Deep Crystal Paint Cleaner Autoglym Hi-Resin Polish Meguiars Cleaner Wax Poorboys Trim Restorer Rain X Poorboys Wheel Sealant Meguiars Endurance Tyre Gel Turtlewax Upholstry Shampoo Leather Upholstry Valet DJ Basics of Bling Quick Detailer No idea bout the Farecla. Keep the waxybox for next time. Less is nearly always more with cleaners, polishes and waxes. Take your time. Check your work as you go. PS - I'm sure some totally different approaches will be along shortly

Apple Macbook, MacPro, iMac & IOS Tips, Tricks & Software Thread
Stutopia replied to Neilp's topic in Off Topic Discussion
Anyone else use yoink on OSX? http://www.eternalstorms.at/yoink/Yoink_-_Draggings_a_drag_no_more/Yoink_-_Draggings_a_drag_no_more%21.html It pops out a little "shelf" from the side of the screen when you're dragging and dropping stuff around, so you don't need multiple windows open. You drag the item(s), the shelf appears, drop it on the shelf, go and do some stuff, then drag it off the shelf and drop it in the new location. It's not a life changer, just really, really handy. --------------------- Bit of backstory, I've been a fan since I first laid my hands on a Macintosh Classic II, back in the day. It was sooo far ahead of anything else I'd seen back then. Now on a 27" iMac (late 2011) i7 @ 3.4 GHz, 16GB and modded it with an OCZ Vertex 4 512GB SSD. I love it, it's as quick today as the day I bought it and it's never so much as lost a byte of data in 3 years. I can't say that about any other computer I've owned, on top of that if I have to use Windowz for something, I've found VMWare runs Windows 7 better than most PCs I encounter in my daily working life -
If you go sim only, month to month, for a while you're in a great position to either wait for the 6 (it'll be September at the latest I'd wager) or if something super exciting from another manufacturer comes along, you can dive right in. I've not changed from iOS to android but I do have a nexus 7 on the side (don't tell my ipad) and the android OS took a little getting used to, but it's not a huge leap to make if one of them takes your fancy, couple of weeks use and you'll be all over it. Not used any of the android OSs from Samsung or HTC or Sony, I imagine they're similar but with the added feature of having to wait longer for updates whilst they splash their own flavour over them and try to point you at their own content stores.

Sometimes mine go to junk mailbox.

4 seats, posh badge, plenty of leg room, nicely appointed, practical, on budget and it's got a V8. What's not to like? http://tinyurl.com/nnnjdef

Civic Type R, I got chatting to this yoof the other day and he was telling me his tuned one was quicker than a 911 so, you know with the practicality side as well, it's a no brainer. ¡Suerte!

True story, mutekis are the nutz. No more scratching the wheels when you undo them too!

There were some real beauties on show and it's good to see a few different marques, once in a while! Thanks, I tried to keep it that way, more Button than Hamilton I had some less smooth moments earlier in the day but sadly I only had the camera out for the final session and we'd lost a few cars by that point, so the track was quite quiet. Great for trying new lines, but doesn't make for great TV. Ta. I actually think the Zed will retire from track days now and something lighter and less important (to me) will have to arrive for next time. It works for me. In my first session I had a great tussle with a Carrera 4, if it hadn't been for the chequered flag, I'd still be out there now chasing it down

Arran's Azure 350 GT, Exhaust autobahn video finally 9/10/14
Stutopia replied to Arran's topic in Member Build Projects
Nice detail job, looks mint! -
This won't win any Oscars but I'm quite pleased with it, please don't judge me too harshly, I'm only learning and the Zed is my daily, so I can't afford to push it too hard out there. Just a clean lap and brief bit of me coming up behind an E type - oh and getting passed by a caterham Edit: apologies, in my excitement I neglected to edit out a 'Category A' bad word (don't worry it wasn't a Clarkson). Clean version uploaded.
