me too.

I am VERY brain fried trying to figure out how to fab a wiring harness adapter because my car had the ONE configuration that a standard converter won't handle, and the only place to get the one I want is the UK.

@ MsRR - have you heard about the android based car systems?

Indeed.. my car is not on the list.
There is NO aftermarket stereo compatible with my wiring.. Unless Google doesn't know about it.
I have a 7 speaker system with amp assist.  But the head unit borked.


The 91 Toyota MR2 was available with a premium audio system composed of a double-DIN head unit, two amplifiers, two tweeters, two woofers, two rear fill speakers, and a subwoofer. The tweeters are mounted in the sail panels, the woofers in the front bottom of the doors. The rear fill speakers are behind the seats on the sides and the subwoofer is mounted in the driver's side storage compartment behind the seat. The amplifiers are mounted behind the driver's seat as well, behind the plastic panel the holds the engine lid release lever. The stock system produces fairly decent sound as stock systems go. The stock head units, however, often have trouble reading CDs as they get older. Replacement stock head units are extremely expensive, so I made the decision to go with an aftermarket head unit. Integration into the stock wiring harness is non-trivial due to the odd connector used for the head unit and the issues with bypassing the stock amplifiers.

So I've been replaying Portal 2 and I noticed that several of the computer screens have blue screens on them. &%$£$%& Microsoft. GlaDOS should change her operating systems.

I played for a while but had too many slow down issues after the program was closed and I went on to other things. If I have to restart after playing... no deal.

I got on a Minecraft server today. For some reason, Multiplayer runs better than Single Player for me.

[Canama]

59883

Ditto.

That's because the server is doing the heavy lifting in multiplayer, whereas in single player it's all up to your computer.

Also, it's fun to blow up your house with TNT once the server admin approves it because you drowned and now your stuff is 3000 blocks away.

I still say, they can save windows 8 by allowing you to disable metro UI  completely and then letting you open metro apps as windows. Suddenly, W8 sells!

MTM does know that you CAN change from the Metro UI of W8 to the more traditional windows UI, right (and before somebody says 'it's complicated', are you seriously lazy enough not to go to the control panel?) And that that the Metro UI is because they want to target the tablet market - a growing market, btw

1) no, actually you can't. There's an unconfirmed rumor that in the final release, you'll be able to disable metro, but Microsoft has hinted this won't be true. You CANNOT disable it through the control panel.

2) while windows 8 is geared primarily at touchscreen devices, you cannot deny that the VAST majority of computers do not have touchscreen. People have used windows 8, and they have shown using any other input device other than a touchscreen is clunky and complicated at best. Regardless of what you feel about the metro UI, you cannot deny that it is not designed for anything other than a touchscreen, and won't work well with anything but a touchscreen. Tablets are a growing market, but still a very small one.

3) I Personally think metro is hideous and that it sucks, even on a touchscreen. this is an opinion. facts can be incorrect. opinions cannot "I like cheese more than ketchup" is not a something that can be right or wrong, because it is an opinion. I have not used windows 8 myself. I have used windows phone 7 however, and the entire metro UI is taken form. I do not need to use something to create an opinion on it. Would you like some monkey brain and jello soup? No? well, how would you know if you haven't tried it? You didn't even google it to know if it really even has monkey brains in it. I've done plenty of research on windows 8, because i haven't had the opportunity to use it yet.

He acts way too much like he knows everything about all tech. Stop. being. so. condescending. please.

4) I have not been condescending about tech once. I do not know everything - but i certainly know more than you, judging by your reactions and comments. I have not been condescending about it once.

And he has MISSED OUT THE NUMBER. Far too much. This is COUNT TO A MILLION.

5) here, you are completely correct. this is due to typing on 3.2" not-very-sensitive touch screen. Don't judge until you try it. Isn't that your motto? If i had a better phone it'd stop autosubmitting.
