Golden Boy was the very first anime I saw; but I not a fan of it...

[LeeC]

The earliest I can remember was either the Grimm Fairytales that they used to broadcast on Nickelodeon when I was very young, or something I saw on the fuzzy channel at around that same time called "Tank Police" if I remember correctly.  I'll never forget one scene when the veteran guy and the girl with a bomb strapped to her neck are getting shot at.

Vet: "Oh no! Red Commandos!"

New girl:"Red commandos? What are they?"

Vet:"Just what I said, commandos that are red!"

Did you know that that dord has been a link on the front page for a good amount of time? I believe the horse has been there only a few days though.

Ayrton Senna.

Every sport has rules.

Absurd? Maybe, but it's done all the time, even in Formula One. Sometimes for "safety", sometimes to make the racing more exciting for the spectators, sometimes to contain costs.

F1 doesn't have a top speed limiter on race. Massa's 235mph mark on Monza would say that.

Semantics.  As Akima rightly stated, F1 has added rules to cut speed before and will do so again.

[jwhouk]

A tear will be shed for them. Friend of mine worked for them before 9/11.

[Kugai]

True ev4n

It's part of the reason they stopped using real engines and went to those Coffee Grinder Powerpac Engines.

Not exactly the same. An actual top speed limiter evens top speed across the board, resulting in a much different type of race. Limiting the ruleset in a way that throws slower cars I'm perfectly fine with.

And Kugai - Technically, the Coffee Grinder Powerpac Engines give out more top speed (except for Monza because the dudes in Mercedes cars couldn't be arsed to shift to 8th). Things about turbos, they're weird.

[Kugai]

*Sticks chin out grumpily*

Engines still don't sound raaght dangit.

[osaka]

Oh yeah, that's wrong on many levels. But they produce more top-end power in the end.

[LeeC]

[Kugai]

Until F1 starts using real engines again - V10 or V12 - I consider it to be Fi Lite.

[LeeC]

Ugh, I just figured out what magfest is, and who was there, and where it was, and that I totally missed it a few weeks ago.
 
I'm bummed.

beastiality.

if it weren't so horrifying,

it'd be a hell of a practical joke.

[tragic_pizza]

What kind of bullshit is that? A motorsport with restrictor plates?

Dale Earnhardt, Rodney Orr, Neil Bonnett, Tiny Lund and Joe Weatherly would say hi, but they're kinda dead.

Dale Ernhardt and Neil Bonnet died after restrictor plates were introduced.

The plates make racing "tighter" on superspeedways, which arguably makes it more dangerous. But Ernhardt's death, at least, brought some safety innovations that helped... "safer barriers," HANS devices, better harnesses...

Too much on topic for a no-topic thread. Have a video of a fat preacher yelling at another (homophobe) preacher. I may or may not be the white guy.

[Kugai]

Last one to die of a Heart Attack wins. 

[tragic_pizza]

Not shown in that particular video is the guy with the crazy eyes trying to cast a demon out of me.

[Kugai]

Are you sure he wasn't trying to possess you?

[tragic_pizza]

In the sense that he wanted me to get his brand of Jesus^tm, perhaps. I've had that flavor of Jebus, thanks.

Pointless because (a) I didn't change their minds, and (b) they didn't stop LGBTQI people from getting licenses and getting married.

Another proof that Opera is superior.
Although I really need this tab stacking on Opera Next. I've resorted to use firefox to read the forums and I'm not a huge fan.

[hedgie]

Fellow Opera user reluctantly using FF for the fora.  One of these days I'll really need to do do a dist update in order to get the current version. 

[explicit]

Why doesn't IE look dumberrrrrr. Anyways I just use chrome seeing as I need to use a bunch of google stuff anyways.

[Welu]

IE looks nervous and naive to me and, to me, that suits quite well.

[explicit]

Can't be that nervous, he has the audacity to ask if I'd like him to be my default browser every time I open it. (almost always by accident)

[Aziraphale]

Question is, if the browsers were QC characters, what would each one be?

[explicit]

IE is Clinton.

[Aziraphale]

See, I'd have pegged IE as Pintsize. Temperamental and only occasionally helpful.

[explicit]

I couldn't find the pic that I wanted, but as long as we're talking about browser this feels fairly accurate, sorta kinda maybe.



And if Pintsize is any part of the internet it's 4chan. I do know we were talking about browsers, but 4chan just fits him so well.

[osaka]

Since Opera Next is built on a testing branch of the Chromium project, it's actually faster than Chrome.

[Stryc9Fuego]

Hey, now... Internet Explorer is absolutely PERFECT for getting you a better web browser. GarandMarine had a pony pic to that effect. Let's see if I can find it:



Pretty sure this is it. I'd check but meh.

[cesium133]

IE is Clinton.

IE was the president of the United States in the 1990s who liked screwing interns? I guess that explains IE's penchant for catching viruses...

[Method of Madness]

I use Chrome because my main laptop hasn't worked in months, so I've been using my Chromebook for everything.

[Kugai]

Personally, I found Chrome a system hog.

I've been using Firefox for nearly decade now.  Did use Safari for a while, but I found it a little too basic for what I wanted and went back to Firefox.

IE I won't touch - not after the chaos it caused me when I first started on the Net in the early 2000's. 

[Sorflakne]

Firefox is superior for development; if it works in Firefox, it'll work in every other browser 99.9% of the time.

And the addons are optional, you don't need them for Firefox to do everything you need (except for the classic theme restorer and putting tabs under the address bar where they should be).

[Nikolai]

Unless you're attempting to access a US Army site, in which case if it's not IE, it won't work.

[BeoPuppy]

Thing is, this whole discussion on which browser is best comes down to personal preference and there is just no accounting for taste, I feel.

[hedgie]

I don't really think there is a "best", but most of us use what we consider to be the least bad.

[Orkboy]

Unless you're attempting to access a US Army site, in which case if it's not IE, it won't work.

Well yeah, army grunts made the site.  People who know how technology works join the Air Force.   

[Method of Madness]

Can't we all just get along?

[Sorflakne]

Mobile users and those with slow connections are gonna hate me.

edit: hm, seems to be a ton of images rather than just one, so here's the comic that was supposed to show up.

[LeeC]

Still from the new James Bond movie looked familiar.
