I hope you are allowing a certain amount of time to 'teach' every move you ask of it. You couldn't go up to someone who has never driven (or played driving games) and expect them to do this without some training...
FYI, harder things than that are required here in Finland just to get your driver's license at all.
I'm an ex-racer too, mainly UK rallycross & then normal circuits and I often think about this kind of thing. In fact, just this morning I was wondering what it would take to get this kind of training for everyone in Canada. Then I forgot it lol.
It would be so so so useful given that we get slippy winters and even just that people are generally crap and could do with being a bit more.. 'capable'.
Sigh, I can but dream.
(Btw, I got in trouble this winder for doing the move in the vid in a private car park:( I hate pigs man.)
the maneuver is impressive and would be extremely difficult for a human to pull off
Impressive as it is, for a machine (though I must say I was expecting a handbrake turn, not a j-turn with not much active involvement during the slide), difficult for a human it is NOT. It's a very big gap.
"extremely difficult for a human to pull off" is the kind of stuffRuss Swift does.
If it's anything like in Canada, he is screwed. Rogers encrypt ALL channels and there is no analogue option.
Sure, I could record from the component out, but then you have to say hi to Mr Analogue (although these days, not too much of a problem I guess).
Rule 34? "Any officer caught sniffing the saddle of the exercise bicycle in the women's gym will be discharged without trial?". I really don't see the relevance here.
I get that it may be old, I meant 'new to me':)
As in, "I had never heard of it before, then randomly heard of it two days in a row", like you say:)
In reality, you probably do hear these words all the time, then one day you actually 'notice' it. As it's fresh in your mind you then notice it more readily for a while, giving the impression that you have only just started hearing the word.
Yeah I just installed the sun java from the partner repos. I'll just use it as the default but openJDK is still there if I ever 'need' it.
It's just annoying that they choose to remove the more compatible version from the main repos. Oh well:)
At least these kinds of problems are usually encountered by the kind of people that can fix them. However if there is a compatibility problem in a Java Applet on a web page then the troubled user may not have as much luck if they aint a geek...
Why is it you always hear of something new in bunches? I was trying to get on the internet on my train yesterday and an error came up about Varnish proxy. And now today, a reference here.
Having not bothered looking anything up about it, what is the big benefit of using it over any other proxy, such as squid?
Well that depends how you define 'transmit' I guess. Technically, you are right, and thinking about it I get the feeling that's what Tesla meant, based upon his transmitting electricity ideas...
Hmm... Well spotted:)
Pure Blackberry advertising to increase usage in the UK. Why should they correlate "possible to transmit wireless messages all over the world." with the BB and not, say, any phone since the mid 90's?
But if my life was making music, i'd take blind. I get that.
Yes, personally, much as I love my music, i'd have to take deafness:( , I love my driving more.

I agree. I'm putting it in my calendar for next year right now!

Towel Day. It says it right there in the title.
What's this fish doing in my bed?
I had to have them killed :(
Good rallying is truly truly beautiful.

And what is YOUR surname, Mr c++Ox?
I didn't know genetics can be passed down through adoption!
Why do you use a percentage first and then a fraction? I'm merely curious :)

Run into a problem already, the GlassFish admin console in NetBeans 6.8... does not work with OpenJDK.

All praise Genebus!
Well it's actually Mothers Day coming up here and my kid needs to 'buy' her something and she wants a Dell Mini...
Not that i've ever bought a standalone windows license so i'm not really 'saving money' so to speak.
