    Cherry card reader keyboard

    Yea, yo u're right. I actually have never used aside from once just to see how they felt, I normally use a HappyHacking board amongst others.

    Cherry card reader keyboard

    I have a similar keyboard, they're actually mechanical, they use the MY switch rather than the superior MX tho.

    which phone to get

    My Galaxy Nexus, which was first activated early morning day of release, is starting to show its age enough to where I am looking for a new phone. Unfortunately, while the pre-smartphone LG's were awesome, I really don't like their, or Motorola's, implementation of Android nor am I happy with...

    APR tunes the VW Gen 3 EA888 1.8t

    I only have BMW's currently, but that doesn't mean I don't pay close attention to Porsche (looking to snag a 997 GT3 RS; friend has the incredible and incredibly rare RS 4.0 that I constantly try to buy from him).

    Manual Tranny Fluid for Cold Weather

    RL D4 and MTF in a 50:50 mixture is EXTREMELY popular with BMW owners running a lightweight flywheel, as it really does give most of the benefits of both while reducing many of the negatives.

    What do you think? (computer question)

    I can reach sustained read/write speeds of 380-395MB/sec w two of my WD10EZEX in RAID0, you willl ove them! IMHO, there is not a better drive for the money in terms of all around performance, in fact in is one of thefastest drives aavailable, yet cooler and quieter than the old-hat blacks.

    AR-15 "Kits"

    Which barrel length? Also, subsonic or Super? I always shoot heavy rounds, I hate lightweight rounds in the same caliber because they are too unpredictable. For the 300BLK that means 200gr+ at around 1050-1110fps (results in about 575-650lb-ft of energy on the low side, but carries the speed...

    Upper cylinder lube vs. oil additives

    I completely missed the sarcasm, one of the dangers of the Internet! I have generally agreed with you in pretty much every post I've read (I say generallyonly bbecause I can't think of any examples to the contrary, but I never was good at playing well with others so I am sure at some point I...

    All season tires for Subaru WRX

    Then I would stake my reputation on the Pilot AS3! Of course, I realize that's pretty much worthless as I don't think I have much of one here, but it's the thought thatcounts, r ight?

    Upper cylinder lube vs. oil additives

    I agree with the above as to what I read Molakul's statement to mean. As for RL being ethical, I would say that in the rather cutthroatworld of engi ne products, if they are producing a product superior to the competition but with the same basic level chemistry behind it, and the other guys...

    AR-15 "Kits"

    I have 300BLK from DD, Noveske, and Wilson. All are absolutely top notch, and I am in a 300BLK phase. 10.5-12.x" barrels w 12-14" free float rails and a can on the end of each, and the result is an accurate, powerful, and easy to shoot SBR that's quieter than a 22LR w subsonic ammo.

    What do you think? (computer question)

    The reason against parity RAID is that with 3TB disks or larger, the shear number of LBA's present means that statistically, during a rebuild you are more likely to encounter an URE than not.

    Finally purchased another sports car, S2000 turbo

    If you are looking to clean up the intercooler, send it to Swain Tech! They have a thermal coating that INCREASES thermal emissivity, thereby increasing the efficiency of the intercooler. I had it applied to both heat exchangers in my 328Ci TS SC setup (AIT dropped from 109 to 82 w 75f IAT), as...

    What do you think? (computer question)

    True, it does decrease load times, but the amount of time shaved is highly variable. I have seen anywhere from as much as a 45 percent decrease to as little as zero. Also, RAID0 is fine if it's for unimportant data, but I always recommend a consistent and significant backup regiment be in...

    Upper cylinder lube vs. oil additives

    Probably because everyone else does, and they don't want to lose sales over semantics.

    Redline 5W40... smoke & oil smells bad...

    I run RL almost exclusively (see sig), and I have found that when switchingfrom a ddifferent oil, what works best for me is to start with a low mile OCI, and increase incrementally (ie 1k, then 2k, then 3.5k, then 5k). It is the most powerful sludge removal agent I've seen in action, but as a...

    All season tires for Subaru WRX

    I absolutely hate No Season tires and make no attempts to hide my disdain for them. To me, the only proper wayis to have UHP summer tires for summer, and UHP winter tires for winter. THAT SAID... I decided on a whim to put some Pilot AS3 on my 325i to see if technology had improved, and I love...

    how important are miles when car shoppping

    I have about 190K on my 325i, and after the most recentmmajor work (the full suspension upgrade), it drives better than new. Engine is in completely perfect condition, with all cylinders having compression results within a 2-point range, and visual inspection during VCG replacement showed a...

    Just put a pint of MMO in the crankcase of the 528

    I was not saying that the MMO or anything else added caused timing issues, but that the timing issues resulted I significant lifter tick, which is what the PO was trying to address. The MMO was what was used most often/frequently, and was used the most recently prior to selling it to me; it...
