The steering wheel controls, as a couple posters above have said, are used to change fuel mixture, rev limiters for pit speeds, as well as adjusting launch and traction control systems. What they DONT tell you in the article is one of the things that makes Schumacher so good is how he utilizes that wheel during a race, aside from steering the car:) He adjusts his mixture, TCS systems and gearbox on the fly during the race, sometimes in the middle of one corner anticipating the needs of the next corner (!) This adjustability and all the testing he does is one reason he dominates the competition. Schumi's wheel has even more controlls than the wheel they pictured in the article, which belongs to Barachello.
Feingold makes me proud of being a Wisconsin resident, as well as proud of being Jewish. Joe Lieberman on the other hand does nothing to inspire pride in my religion.
Come on, looking at porn is a hell of a lot safer than actual sex. Besides, how else are you gonna learn about the clitoris? Its not like your GF is gonna show you (Oh wait, this is slashdot where the closest thing to a GF (for most) is the Virtual Jenna Jameson tape.
Seriously, I've watched maybe 1 episode of Farscape. Its a fine show, but (1)It's not the last time that a good scifi series will air (2) There are MANY other causes (insert ANY anti-war/hunger/etc... effort here) that are far more worthy of the kind of attention that this TV SHOW is garnering. Fence-sitting junk like this is why I cant stand slashdot sometimes.
I used to be into racing electric R/C trucks, but I have a friend that races an HPI Nitro RS4 like the ones on the site competatively. They are VERY fast. They can out-accellerate anything else on wheels just due to the laws of physics, and the gearing on my friend's RS4 is set up to top out at 60 MPH. Any more than that is pointless because you need to be able to see the car whiz on by. My point is you should KNOW something about what you're talking about before you start talking smack. 1.2 horsepower in a tiny little car is one HELL of a power to weight ratio that not even a Ferrari F50 could match.
Encrypted TV really sucks ass. I dont like it at all. BillG can go to goatse.cx.
