The Alsatians - Five honours and a 175
not sure what year - late 70's, early 80's-tomos (September 03, 2014, 04:33 PM)

some people Say men who ride Hondas also ride other men lmao...-Stephen66515 (September 03, 2014, 03:55 PM)
SJ...How do you get anywhere? Are you not constantly sat at the side of the road fixing your Harley?-Stephen66515 (September 03, 2014, 01:59 PM)
I am looking for a Sports/Sports Tourer style ride-Stephen66515 (September 03, 2014, 01:59 PM)
When it comes to the 125cc, I won't be able to get a huge amount of speed as we are very strict on power output available for learner riders, and seeing as 125cc or lower are mainly sold to those riders, they are built specifically with those regulations in mind.-Stephen66515 (September 03, 2014, 01:59 PM)
I am leaning currently more towards the Varadero 125. I am thinking this purely because of the size of the bike itself. It is much taller than normal 125's and looks rather comfortable and not a 'pocket rocket' in the sense that I am not going to be in over my head with no real riding experience.-Stephen66515 (September 03, 2014, 01:59 PM)

I want to be sure I can find it again before I feel I can close it.-spectrekitty (August 30, 2014, 05:53 PM)
@SJ: I read where others have found problems like that. However I don't have the tools oreequipment to test it unfortunately.-J-Mac (August 29, 2014, 08:43 AM)
Sounds like there is a problem with getting the required power to the router. Open the box and check if a capacitor (or other component) blew in the section where power is converted from AC mains to the required DC voltage (usually 5 or 12 volts).-Shades (August 29, 2014, 01:20 AM)
That principle could well be in action with these "moving rocks" also.
Empiric method. Innit great?-IainB (August 28, 2014, 08:46 PM)
You betcha! Saves endless speculation and "explanations" of how it had to be aliens and UFO technology that made it possible.
This rube has made a career of it:

Huh? But it was. The article is just yet another colossal government cover-up to hide secret Pleiadian anti-gravity technologies that they got from a downed UFO in New Mexico in 1957. (They've been unable to locate the downed spacecraft in the desert in the article - that's the real culprit here! It probably crashed hundreds of years ago and is still pumping out anti-grav fields from it's worm-tractor propulsion drives.)-Renegade (August 28, 2014, 10:48 PM)

So sorry for your loss. It's terrible losing a loved one-Dirhael (August 29, 2014, 01:41 AM)

I ran into a banking institution yesterday that did not allow special characters or spaces, but did required a number be included in the user name.
Like the outcome of that isn't going to be predictable as hell ...(y0ur N4m3)... Derp!-Stoic Joker (August 27, 2014, 10:19 PM)
If a username/password is actually printed on paper, then it makes sense to not include beginning or ending spaces. But with the incredible invention of monospaced fonts, there's no reason why "a b" couldn't be a valid username or password. I have never understood why "spaces" aren't allowed.-Renegade (August 27, 2014, 11:07 PM)


That's just one of my pet peeves.-Renegade (August 25, 2014, 01:24 PM)
@R - Out of curiosity....just how many of this pets do you have? It must be hundreds.![]()

I see what you did their.-Stephen66515 (August 26, 2014, 06:24 PM)
Wondering why I bothered posting this now...-Stephen66515 (August 24, 2014, 09:22 PM)
And this is what happens when you completely lose you freaking mind:
(see attachment in previous post)
The 2 S3 440 GH/s machines are turned to pull cold air out of the room, and - yes that is Dryer Vent Hose - then push the hot exhaust air out through the attic. The other S1 180 GH/s machine only has one fan and no outer housing (rather odd I thought), so it's still dumping a ton of hot air into the room ... But it's at least half assed tolerable in here now.
If these are the "Quiet Ones" (and they are), I'd hate like hell to hear the noisy ones ... Let's just say the wife is not thrilled with this latest development..-Stoic Joker (August 17, 2014, 10:39 AM)
Like living on a tarmac, eh?-Renegade (August 25, 2014, 09:31 PM)


it would be a challenge to teach them these so-called "human values." Especially since we're so bad at teaching said values to humans.-40hz (August 24, 2014, 12:10 PM)
Wordpress.com didn't let you install custom plug-ins last time I checked.-Tuxman (August 24, 2014, 12:02 PM)
My rule of thumb here is to use only commonly used plug-ins with a record of security. I have to blindly trust them because checking is too expensive for me.-Renegade (August 24, 2014, 11:21 AM)
I usually try to replace plug-ins by simple functions.php snippets around twice a year. Works well. I know it sounds a bit harsh, but if you don't understand PHP, you shouldn't install WordPress. Better use the wordpress.com hosting service.-Tuxman (August 24, 2014, 11:46 AM)
...Maybe even add an automated redirector that sent anyone with more than 10 failed login attempts in a minute to the FBI's home page...-Stoic Joker (August 21, 2014, 05:47 PM)
Are you kidding? I don't allow any more than 2 failed attempts in an hour before I block the IP.-app103 (August 23, 2014, 06:02 PM)
