Not just you, I can see the resemblance. Side effect of them both being owned by VAG maybe? Also, the Asterion's rear end styling looks pretty  , imo.

Goddamn, I'm starting to really enjoy driving this stickshift dump truck at work. I finally get why you guys rave about stuff with manual transmissions, they're a blast when you nail your gear changes. I don't think I've ever thought of using "Dually Silverado dump truck" and "fun" in the same sentence until this week.

Man, today was awesome. I met the owner of Redwing RC, got to check out his new prototype plane, and took about 600 photos of some really crazy stunt flying. It owned.

Yeah, the green one with the spare on the front. I'm pretty sure they only did that for that event to get some extra traction up front for that hillclimb.

General_Failure posted:Thanks for humouring me. I hope that's the case. It looks like it'd be a pretty major handicap otherwise. So does that mean the rules allow shuffling things around for challenges? I'm assuming so, for minor stuff like that it doesn't seem to be a huge deal. I know later on when he's doing the Frame Twister section he doesn't have it mounted there (Or anywhere, as far as I can see). Top Truck seems to be pretty lax on stuff like that.

Tomarse posted:I'm sure someone in this thread originally recommended 'next car game' on steam? Did they fix the godawful handling? I know they completely redid the engine and it made the cars handle like absolute poo poo. It was basically impossible to get proper airtime off jumps and if you turned off assists, they either plowed through corners or spun out the instant you touched the throttle

Tomarse posted:I don't have a problem with the handling but I'm playing in default auto mode so have no idea what it's like without any assists. I just gave it a shot, and it's better than it was. When they first reworked the engine, assists off was basically unplayable with a 360 pad, and assists at full was pretty much an instant win button because the car just gripped like tarmac. Now I can actually drift corners with all the assists off, so they've made progress at least. Still can't really get as much air as you could before they redid the engine though

I know someone here mentioned Carmageddon Reincarnation being kinda bleh in its current state, but I'd like to point out, for today it's $18 on Steam and comes with free copies of Carmageddon 1 and 2. I picked it up just for those alone.

Random bit of music chat, but I think this may be my favorite live DVD ever. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aOU8iPqo35w It's pretty much an hour long zombie movie / concert session and the entire plot is about them being self indulgent and making a concert DVD during an actual zombie apocalypse. I kinda wish more musical groups would go completely absurd with their live concert films Also, it helps that the performance itself is pretty awesome.

Tokyo Drift was amazing, it was the last of the street racing movies in the series before they went all "The Adventures of Paul Walker and His Crazy Crime Crew". Seriously, I love Fast 5 and Furious 6 or whatever the hell they called them, but goddamn, the 4th movie marked a really weird turn in the series.

Goddamn I love PB Blaster. Had to break loose a bunch of giant rear end 15/16 and 1-1/16 bolts that hold the piping to our main well, and they were rusted on solid. Liberal application of PB Blaster and brute force with a big rear end ratchet managed to solve that problem at least

Since we seem to be doing NerdChat, any of you guys try alternate shell options for Windows 7? I'm currently using Emerge and it's super slick and actually pretty easy to tweak and adjust. Back when I had XP I had bbLean installed but it was a complete pain in the rear end to edit and dress up since it was basically CSS editing at points.

Brigdh posted:Cygwin is a port of all your normal Unix/Linux commands and programs to Windows. Basically it turns the Windows shell into a Unix/Linux shell environment. Since I do a lot of Linux development, not having to remember how to use Window's neutered shell when I'm on a Windows environment is a big plus to my productivity. Ah, gotcha. That actually sounds pretty cool! The only Linux experience I have is a few weeks worth of dabbling about in Kubuntu, and that alone was enough to break my brain after being used to XP for so long.
