I've just come back from the Manchester classic car show, and I finally got the chance to sit in a Tesla model S, the new face-lifted one as well. It was only a P60D, but I'd still give an arm and a leg to own one and be able to drive it now if I could. Oh, and they were taking bookings for test drives, sadly not accepting deposits for the model 3, otherwise I think my dad might have just gone "fuck it!" and ordered one. On the drive back home he was checking the prices of the used model S market.
Also, there were a few other nice motors there, such as a McMerc SLR, Aston DB5/6, a corvette stingray splitty, but to top it all off there was the one off TVR white elephant.
For those who haven't heard of it, the white elephant was basically a custom built TVR for the owner, who wanted a car to use when he went hunting, so there was a dog basket cutout for his hunting dogs, a compartment to store his shotgun, ammo and the pheasants he shot, and it was powered by a prototype Holden engine. Here's the website that explains more about it http://www.tvrwhiteelephant.co.uk/
That's the 2nd time I've seen it at a car show now and it's absolutely brilliant.

Or just access it through your phone's browser?
It's just as fast as any app would be without all the coding bulls*** required for a standalone app.

And the current system only makes it easier for countries like the US to take control ... oh wait, they already have control. For the Non-Americans of the world, this is not desirable, with your NSA and other shit.
 
No offense, but America doesn't deserve to be in charge of the Internet.

Oh well look at you with all your fancy reputation, you shitposter 
 
I've been away from LTT forums for the large part of a year, thanks to uni taking up so much of my time, but I do need to start posting more again now that I'm moving into my own place

Honestly, the guy should use total war: warhammer or cities skylines to see just why an i7 works well these days. An i5 is still the bang for buck cpu, but the i7 really is seeing benefits now, even BF1 uses 6 to 8 threads at 80% load at times.
 
People who are going to make videos on subjects like this need to do some proper research and testing before publishing their results, otherwise people who do their research are just going to make a mockery of them, and those who haven't done their research will be lead astray by false information.

Honestly, I've been running it fine at high details and max frame rate on a gtx 770 and i7 4790k, I initially experienced a bit of lag, but it settled down as I went on.
I'm currently on the starting planet, which it a frozen planet at -67.5C and it's a tricky one to manage, it's not like an elder scrolls game where you can hoard every item you come across, you really do have to make sure you don't run out of space, however it's fortunate that you can constantly send items back to your ship at any point, although your ship will run out of space as well at some point.
I do agree that it is repetitive, and I'm a little annoyed that it's not online or even has an online feature to do local multiplayer with friends, but I'm hoping that that may be added at a later date.
If you don't like grinding, resource farming and micro managing then you'll want to get something else, but if you don't mind taking your time to get going and want something with vibrant, colourful and friendly space travel then this is a good game to get in my opinion. I'll update my views on it when I'm further into the game, but for now it's quite nice to explore in.

I'd give that a 7/10. the focus, colours and subject are all really good, you must have bribed it to pose like that for you! The only complaint is the brightness, maybe close the apeture a little more and it'd be even better.
 
Here's another cars and coffee photo, took this about 3 meets back when there was a fair amount of italian supercars about, including an original F40 in yellow!
 

So if this is going to be a theme, I'll rate two and post one, so the next person will rate one and post none 
 
1. 7/10 I like the subject, as well as the background, although the muted colours kind of detract a little from it, overall a really nice photo though.
2. 9/10 This is really nice, the colouration, the subject, the scene all look great, wish I could find subjects like that when going to the countryside, sheep are kinda boring to photograph.
 
 
So I've been going to the Liverpool Cars and Coffee a few times now, and I've gotten some photos from there, both off my phone and camera, so I'll be using those for this.
 

So I finally passed my practical driving test after 2 years learning, and I've bought a ford KA, one of the newer ones based on the fiat 500 chassis, it's the zetec 1.2l model, in dive blue. Very nice to drive, tall riding position for a small car, with a very quiet engine. The only issue I have is that is has stop start built in, which is a real pain in the arse, as it's cut out the engine a few times now, including on a hill whilst stuck in traffic. If I could turn it off permanently, instead of having to reset it every time I get in the car, then it would really be a bonus.

I really wouldn't, if you want a larger battery, either buy a battery case or use a battery bank, as opening up a phone which doesn't have a removable battery, and trying to replace it is ill advised, especially if the battery is not a certified one. If you're having issues with the battery life of your S7, try turning off auto sync and reducing the location accuracy to just gps.

Okay, for those people who are voting to leave the EU, or have yet to make their mind up, allow me to help you with reasons why we should stay.
1. Roughly only 12% or so of our laws come from the EU, and the UK has agreed to every single one of them. They have not been forced upon us, remember, we vote for MEPs who are our voice as a nation in the EU, much like our MPS are our voice in parliament.
2. We pay £190 million per week to the EU, not £350 million, which totals up to 0.6% of our entire GDP, which is nothing compared to how much goes into the NHS and the rest of the government spending.
3. Currently, the EU accounts for 40% of our exports as a nation. Imagine taking away 40% of your income and trying to get by that large a cut, whilst still living the way you do.
4. If we leave the EU and still wish to trade with them, it will cost us a similar amount to how much we have to pay to the EU already per year in tax just to gain access to the common market. We will also have to agree to whatever the EU wants us to if we want to continue trade. This will certainly include taking in migrants, likely more than we already take in.
5. For those who complain that immigrants are stealing UK jobs, bear in mind the people who are coming over and actually working are already trained, with a better education than the vast majority of those who are competing for the same jobs.
6. If we vote leave, we will be going against the advice of near enough every financial organisation that has taken any interest in the referendum, with every one of them stating we will have a decreased GDP and will almost certainly go into another recession.
7. If we vote leave, we will be siding with Putin, Farage and Trump for example. If we vote remain, we will be siding with Obama, Sturgeon and Branson to name a few.
8. The UK does not have an empire anymore, there’s no “Splendid isolationism” or anything like the 19th century and early 20th century anymore, we live in a globalised age where we cannot afford to be left alone to fend for ourselves. The empire now consists of a few small islands far far away who will not be able to make up for 500 million+ people in the EU.
9. the UK is part of europe as a continent, we are not stuck on the side of America, we are a small island 22 miles off the coast of France. Therefore, it would be foolish to not stay in the European Union, to help make the continent a better place than it is already.
10. If we leave, we cannot decide 5 years down the line that we don’t like how things have gone and we’ll vote to rejoin. This isn’t a general election, this is the biggest vote that you will likely ever have in your entire life, and if you don’t feel 100% certain in your decision, then vote to remain, because we can always have another referendum to leave, but we can’t have one to rejoin.

All I can say on the topic of brexit now, is that I'm rather pleased that this still has to go to parliament to be voted on, before we can initiate article 50 legally. And as there are 350 MPs known to be pro remain,  that's a majority of 50 already, so it's actually looking more unlikely that we will be leaving the EU, which really makes me feel better.
As long as Messrs Johnson, Gove, Greyling and Farage are kept away from number 10 (Give the PM job to Theresa May please!) then I'll feel a lot better about the whole situation, because Farage is, to be blunt, An absolute nonce. Greyling is an incompetent excuse for a genetically enhanced ape, Gove hasn't learnt to lie straight (he managed to screw up lying about his parents jobs) and Boris is a two-faced double-crossing career advancing plonker who looks like an etonian educated Donald Trump.
