[quote=Josiah;13758076]Sounds like you are talking in C.

Cause 75 degree's F is nothing. 70C on the other hand is very hot. Prob be wise to purchase a new workign heatsink and fan, and perhaps install another fan in the front of the case.[/quote]

Yeah, we're brought up in this weird country of mixed measurements.

Weight for objects is in KG, where as for humans and other beings it's Pound and stone
Long distances are done in miles, whereas shorter ones are done in Meters
All liquid measurements are done in L and ML
Temperature is in C's

And in my packet of M&M's, i have blue, red, yellow, green and brown

Corkofski 12-04-2006 04:50 PM

we still have pints of beer and milk...

trysthedrummer 12-04-2006 04:51 PM

Measurements in millimeters, inches, meters

Sunshine 12-04-2006 04:53 PM

[QUOTE=Janeway;13758110][url]http://www.intrex.net/walker/mm.html[/url][/QUOTE]

But they DO have white ones...

Silver and black, too.

Millenium package =D

Of course now those'd be almost 8 years old sooo that's pretty gross..

But they still sell them in Vegas at the M&M store..thing.

...but Manic...what about orange?

maniac0796 12-04-2006 04:55 PM

Nope.

Just Red blue green yellow and brown

And a GHz in a processor is 100,000,000 calculations a second. Then you move up to a terrahertz, which is 100,000,000,000 calculations a second.

Janeway 12-04-2006 04:56 PM

Oh my.


You [I]read[/I] that?

Josiah 12-04-2006 04:56 PM

I was pretty sure UK used Kilometers? The car speedometer's are in K right?

DrumIntoTheNight 12-04-2006 04:58 PM

Nope, that's the rest of Europe. Our's do show Kph though, aswell as Mph

White 12-04-2006 04:58 PM

Hey Anyone got aim that wants to send me some complete albums? cause they took out the Trading Albums over Aim thread lol, so anytohn want to? I'm in need of good drumming haha.

TTTSNB 12-04-2006 04:59 PM

[quote=Josiah;13757896]Nah, that's still not the equivelent. It's just a different way of handling the instructions. People throw terms around like it's crazy rad language.
The only way to run at 6ghz, is to run at 6ghz. That's 6,000 flipflops a second.

How one uses that descision making potential is competelly different.

Ahhh! THat's what I had a feeling he was refering too the hyperthreading.



Now a lot of people [I]have[/I] overclocked 3.4p4's to 6 ghz. Would prob make for some heat issues.

My p4 is great, I think people just dunno how to do stuff and overload the case with junk. I the stock heat sink and the stock fan. I average about 85 degree's F, and have occasionally hit 110F (like twice int he past year) with some crazy multi-tasking + game playing. That was also during the summer, when the room temp was about 90.
Intel claims the redzone is 134F, and the chip could prob handle up to 160 or so.[/quote]
Heh, I've never had any problems with any of that. Maybe it's because I actually use air conditioning in the summer?

Sunshine 12-04-2006 04:59 PM

Haha, I skimmed.

It made me giggle a little, but it was too poorly written to pay much attention to.

Wow Manic. You got ripped off. You should write them and complain about the lack of orange in your package. Some companies will be really cool and send you free crap.

Haha...around here somewhere, maybe it was in New Mexico, there was a sign that was like "[whatever the city name was], 4 km]".

My parents and I didn't notice it was in kilometers until like 3 miles later.

And when my old friends talk about speed, I always have to ask if they're speaking in mph or kph...silly Japan, screwing everybody up.

They use American speed signs on base, like Speed Limit 45 and crap, but it means 45 k...which didn't occur to me until after I left.

maniac0796 12-04-2006 04:59 PM

Nope, it's all in miles. Most of Europe uses KM though. We have KM measurements in smaller numbers on the speedometers because of the fact it's so easy to travel to another country which uses a different speed measurement. Either an hour ferry journey, or 20 minutes on a train. Yep, we have trains which you park your car in, sit in it, and they take you under the sea to france.

What unit do you use in america. I'd of thought it was miles....

TTTSNB 12-04-2006 05:01 PM

^ Imperial everything, haha.

Are you serious?

That's so. Freaking. Cool.

I wanna go =(

maniac0796 12-04-2006 05:04 PM

Lucky sods. Everything is mixed up here.

I wouldn't mind going to America for a while actually. All the BBC documentary's and stuff i seen on it, the landscape and wildlife is beautiful, but yet all i hear is bad things.

I think some of you guys should come to the UK. I think you'll love fish and chip fridays, and other classic english food such as yorkshire pudding, and roast dinner.

And sunshine, it's called the channel tunnel. It's like, one of the greatest engineering feats created. Wow. I find it amusing that the one accident it's had started in the french end of it...

The car ones take you to Calais in north France, or the eurostar passenger ones (the really fast ones you might of heard of) can take you to brussles, paris, and i think some might go onto Amsterdam

This is a eurostar train:

LoneStarDrummer 12-04-2006 05:06 PM

america has no food they can claim as their own. and the imperical units of measurement are slightly inferior to metric

Sunshine 12-04-2006 05:07 PM

I went to London when I was in like 4th grade...

I'm sorry, but your refridgerators are set too warm. The milk tastes like it's been left out =(

[Granted you could easily argue that our refridgerators are set too cold, so. Eh.]

Other than that, it was pretty cool. Except the whole part where me and my mom kept being denied service because I was under 16 =/

But no SERIOUSLY, ever country has their downfalls. And I didn't get to see the rest of England, lame >=/

America really isn't as bad as people seem to think.

Except Sierra Vista. Sierra Vista is just plain awful.

Janeway 12-04-2006 05:11 PM

For like four months out of the year, the temperature outside is colder than in the fridge. =/

Slightly?

Imperial shouldnt exist anymore, other then in history books.

Win A Rabbit 12-04-2006 05:13 PM

I'm real bored today, and I really want to be able to turn while on my snowskate. I'm thinking of grabbing my snowskate, getting all dressed up, and going over to the hill and giving it a go for an hour or so by myself. I always feel weird going to that hill alone, though, as there's houses all around and it makes me look like I have no friends. :(

I'll just wait until we go snowboarding at my friend's house next. Shouldn't be more than another week here. I love having a friend who lives in the country, with big hills. He's got a couple rails we made, a ton of snow, and some decent hills to snowboard/snowskate on.

I can ride it just fine, and I can turn the slightest bit, but the second I try to make a semi-sharp turn, it starts going that way, snaps back the other way, and I end up jumping off and taking a few running steps down the hill.

Josiah 12-04-2006 05:14 PM

How is the snow skating? Is that the thing with the skateboard deck mounted to a smaller snowboard shaped blade? Or where you have 2 smaller snowboard shapped things on each foot?

[quote='[your name here];13758345']america has no food they can claim as their own. and the imperical units of measurement are slightly inferior to metric[/quote]



Oh we do! Steak and Burgers.

Popcorn is an american invention as well I believe.
There's a ton of southern dishes, louisana has lots of unique foods.


There's a lot of american foods, but most the food in america is american versions of other foods. That's why america is the melting pot.

maniac0796 12-04-2006 05:14 PM

I think we should have a "post a picture of where you live" thread. Although i'd have to wait till it either snows or summer, because the axe valley looks like **** if it's cloudy or raining.

Sunshine 12-04-2006 05:15 PM

You're so damn lucky.

I miss living a short distance from snowboard places.

Granted it cost a fortune, but when you live on base overseas...your family tends to be able to afford that sort of thing.

maniac0796 12-04-2006 05:17 PM

I'm off now stronghold. Nite

I have systems and science mocks tommorow

Janeway 12-04-2006 05:18 PM

Popcorn is mexican.


The indians did it too, but we didn't invent it as Americans. We simply assimilated it.

Jezen 12-04-2006 05:20 PM

There are a fair trad British things that I can't stand like fish & chips on Fridays and roast dinners on Sunday.

I also hate chavs.

Josiah 12-04-2006 05:20 PM

Hmm ya good point.

haha sloppyjoes?

I think there was one once.
