How long has RS Chat been on a "TRIAL BASIS" ?

jackmeister 01-26-2012 04:40 PM

If I clicked on one of these google links, like the AE Aeroplan Credit Card links, does RS get more money if I signed up as well?

Hey guys,

I can't remember where I read this on RS. But, people were talking about an alternative to downloading torrents? ie. for movies and music etc.

And the members said it was WAY better, but a little more complicated?
Anyone know what i'm talking about?
Thanks

nm. found it.

It's called usenet.. looking into it now

just out of curiosity, if you total your car, is it better to send it off to scrapyard or go through ICBC? I read through another thread before that ICBC raises your insurance and forces you to surrender car.

I was wondering how much tax you would pay if you bought a used car off a person on craigslist? Is it the basic 12% and what other fee's do you need to worry about thanks =D

It really depends on the details of the accident, the value of the car and what you insurance rates are like.

12% tax, $28 registration (IIRC) and $18 if you need a new plate.

Just watching Global late night news with Randene and Squire. They were talking about this British study done on parking, and it was determined that women were better at parking than men. I was like, "WTF?" Apparently, women take a little longer, but their parking ended up being more straight and between the lines and whatnot.

I immediately thought, they should come to Richmond and do another study, LOLOLOLOLOL.

It's because men pull into the spot in under two seconds and then go

Meanwhile women spend two minutes to slowly park.

Women are better at parking than men, study suggests - Telegraph

That's probably cause most grocery stores have stalls and don't require parallel parking.

Isn't there some kind of reset procedure?


Edit:

Press and hold power botton at top and button at bottom together for at least 10 seconds while praying to Allah, Buddha, Mohammed, jesus, Moses, and Steve Jobs.

smarv 01-31-2012 06:18 PM

happend to me once it just suddenly turned off and wouldn't turn back on, luckily i was working a block away from an apple store. The "genius" held home and power together for either 10 or 30 seconds to restart it.

random question but, when you guys see wheels spinning on a car can you see the spaces in between the rims whilst they're spinning or do you just see wheels spinning as without spaces and just a silver color for rims

That depends on the speed the wheel is turning.

At certain speeds, it's like your eye refresh rate is in sync with how fast the wheel is spinning, so it'll look like the wheel is stationary or moving slowly.
