when they say the current prius " normally runs only short distances at slow speeds on electric power alone" what do they call short distances (20-30miles?) and slow speeds (20-40mph)? great for city drivers either way though

^^^thats what I was assuming edit, I mean I was assuming the same as suburban_ant....I thought you were trying to decide which titty bar to work at or what kind of adult movies to do

good to know, thanks reinke

list seems a bit short. I've had very good experience with Pioneer...know a lot of people who would say the same too.

arent they supposed to call the cops when you do a gas and go? I know someone who had a warrant issued on them for that...

from the FAQ: "Can I buy this car? When? Not yet. We hope that there will be a production model available in 2-3 years. We are in discussions with auto makers and tier one suppliers who have an interest in this system." more damning in my opinion: "Can you retrofit my car with XH technology? Currently, we are not planning on offering retrofit services. " not retrofitting existing vehicles is what will really slow down the move to alternative powered vehicles...as they start to gather steam, the oil companies will drop prices and that will kill the technology before it gets going. if you can get a gas car for significantly less than some new fangled vehicle with unknown overhead costs and gas comes down, you will stay in your gas car...perhaps that scenario will push the automakers to consider retrofits but currently I've heard nothing from anyone with any such plan.

yeah, you can trim some of the strands on the end that goes into the amp to get it in and the terminals you'll want to pry open enough to get in there...also clean your room

drugs are bad, mkay? Its funny, when I was trying to quit smoking, I got carded for the nicoterm patch things, but not for the actual tobacco at a lot of places, and almost never for alcohol (I've been carded more since I was legal than when I was underage actually).

I was looking for an old post and came across this, not sure if you worked it out already but better late than never thats just the amp reacting to the radio turning off and it kinda discharges and causes the little pop...you can get one of these to go inline and it should eliminate it (coupon code MEADE should shave off a little change, Darvex is a great seller too, has a subforum at SMD and everything) http://www.darvex.com/miva/merchant.mvc?Sc...duct_Code=SGN21

I like the item specifics: "Power (W): More than 150 Watts "

cool, sounds like fun....but, you only raised $500 after destroying a perfect condition car? I guess next year your school will just try and sell the car and get some decent scratch

I doubt anyone on here would admit to that

not even remotely funny.... seriously, not funny.

women arent to be hit or kicked...you can choke and shake the shit out of them when the situation calls for it though edit-^that is almost sig worthy...

for the life of me I'll never understand this online social network stuff (in a non-profession related manner)...why not go out to the mall, college campus, grocery store, movies, job place, blockbuster, liquor store, bus stop, shooting range, animal hospital, abortion clinic or any other thousands of places and meet chicks? I can almost understand it for the women folk, they love to talk and chat and stuff but us men are more...physical and visual. its practically a given that a hot chick on my space is either A) not really hot not looking to put out C)looking to put and has herpes D) a man who is looking to put or E) all of the above...there is the remote chance you'll meet someone of character who happens to live down the street and be worth your time, but if you were at the other 1000 places you could have met her anyway... had a buddy in college who got hit with the hot chick profile=fat chick in real life thing twice...I told him both times its either a man or an ugly chick, I dont care what the pic says...

thats a big rabbit! feel sorry for the little guy though

isnt a clicking noise indicative of a starter issue more than battery? if it was battery it would be just dead I think...

that is your network connection, I assume you are on a wireless network. your actualy connection speed is probably less than 8mbps download and maybe 1mbps upload (probably more like 768kbps really). go to dslreports.com and check under tools I think to run a "connection" speed test and see what your numbers look like over all. at any rate, faster download/upload is up to your carrier. you'll pay for anything faster than your basic service and might see little or no gains from it depending on what you are trying to do. if you are just downloading porn, your dl's probably wont happen any faster, you'll just be able to get more going from different sources simultaneously without a losing much (of course your disk write speeds, AV settings, and firewall traffic come into play then). the problem is really that you will not see any downloads coming down at a speed/size to max your bandwidth from a single source, as most places you are downloading stuff from arent able to "upload" it to you that quickly... that might be more than I needed to type but I've learned to look at the jumbly titty lass in your sig and still be functional and coherent quick edit-the 54mbps is the network bandwidth you would be chewing up if you were transferring/connecting to a resource that is on your personal network as well, like a second computer somewhere that you wanted to copy files to or stream music from....

when did the other cameraman get into the car too? picked him up around the corner maybe?

thats...a damn shame right there...

sorry to hear about the leak...I almost got a sunroof installed on a car some years back and the guy at the place did me a solid and told me they would warranty it but it would almost definitely leak sooner or later

I havent run housecall in about a year, I've gotten out of desktop support, but they didnt used to do that. if it found it would fix it. Its a good addendum to run if you have complications with an installed product. Takes awhile due to it not having an installed footprint on your machine though but it is effective. I used to support alot of road warriors (consultants/sales) and those guys infect thier machines with everything possible (which is funny cause if that PC dies they lose money literally for every minute of downtime)

spybot wont detect a virus. if you have a virus or some other adware installed (goofy toolbars from alexa or someone) those items will get re-downloaded and installed as soon as the machine is on line again. what is it telling you its finding? if its cookies or mru stuff its not significant and will come back with your surfing anyway. (clear mru list: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/142298) if you think you have a virus and AVG isnt finding it, try running Trend Micro's online scan. the problem with a virus scanner is that if you are already infected, it cant very well clean it as its "in residence" and whatever propogated it went unresolved to begin with. perhaps the online scanner will be more beneficial as it can run from a nuetral and clean environment. Trend Micro housecall: housecall.trendmicro.com also limewire is an invitation for spyware and viruses...examine the programs you have installed and you may just find the root of your problem....

its still a waste of energy. of course in your situation you were going to jail anyway so, like you said, it didnt make a difference other than tossing your woofer around.
