Well now that I know that I will stop saying good things aboutcha:D

There is no 4G anywhere commercially.

My iphone says 4g on it....

Mine says AT&T SUCKS. Again, there is no 4G, period. The 4S does not have a chip to be able to receive 4G. Apple programmed that in the latest iOS. You are getting something like HDMA+ or something. Everyone that has upgraded to iOS5.1 is complaining about the slower speeds.

Just saying, thats what my phone says on it...

And I'm just saying you areas not g wetting 4G. I just explained why it says 4G.

Why the debbie downer?

when you say "no 4g anywhere commercially", are you saying that 4g doesn't exist for the consumer? as in, the cell phone companies are FOS?

i know you guys don't brew beer, but i did something interesting:

i might have mentioned that i started some hard cider. knowing that apple juice doesn't have the nutrients and such that the yeast require, i boiled a couple of tablespoons of bakers yeast in cup or so of water and added that to the fermenter. the brewer's yeast fermented five gallons of apple juice, completely, before the next morning. i am amazed. i thought i had a stuck ferment, because i never saw the airlock when it was bubbling actively.

i didn't come up with this little trick, but it is the first time i've tried it.

morning, y'all.

First Monday after switch to daylight saving time is rock bottom, the worst. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/suppo...leys/sleep.gif http://forums.pelicanparts.com/suppo...leys/sleep.gif http://forums.pelicanparts.com/suppo...leys/sleep.gif

Yeah, I got an hour earlier than normal, and that normal time was now an hour earlier, so the bottom line is I got up when it was still dark. Luckily the anxiousness about tests and going home kept me powered through the day.

Good morning guys.

I prefer the daylight savings time schedule. I like lots of sun after I get home from work. With some luck I should get my Elky washed this afternoon after I get home. Last week it was pretty much dark by the time I got home and fed the dogs. The dogs love daylight savings time for the first few days. They get to eat an hour earlier. They adjust real fast. They hate it when daylight savings changes back to regular.

Me too. Makes for a nice bike ride in brisk morning air, no glaring sun, light traffic. And the extra evening light is a bonus. But once summer heat hits it won't be so cool. (I guess that's a pun).

He came flying by making all kinds of great noise, then took the off ramp at the Ring , aka the egg because it's a very small radius, sharp turns. He was driving a bit antisocial, overtaking on teh right and all, so i figured he was fair game.

He had a good 250 yards on me, basically the off ramp,but braked too soon and went through the turn well below the capabilities of his Ferrari..
By the time he was close to exit of the turn, i was chucking BF-1 in, just dropped it a gear , no brakes required.

And i had carried enough speed to close in, and now he was out of the turn, and gunning it again but way to low of speed to catch the speed i was carrying...
That beautiful noise was very loud, but this time i heard it from the front, to the side, and then in the back as i blew past him and dove into turn2

Not bad for a Diesel.

Go Stijn! :D You need to do a racing school or a video like Rendevous with real audio from the actual video, at actual speed.

My tests went well. I ended up not studying. Read the Racecar Engineering on Saturday then spent the rainy/cloudy Sunday messing around with Solidworks. I ended up making a wheel resembling a Fuchs for no real reason other than I wanted a wheel for my model suspension.

evening all. been a long day.

D, they are selling it as 4G, but it is 4Glte. The fine print says this as well.

Each company has been developing its own brand of 4G, but true 4G does not exist yet. When Apple released iOS5.1, they changed the symbol on the phone and opened up a different type of "4G" for the 4S. A lot of people are complaining that this switch, which was supposed to be faster than 3G, but is actually slower.

Probably won't see real 4G until the next release of the iPhone (and other companies).

this confuses me. is it still 3g? is there a difference between 3g and "4glte"?

It's basically between 3G and 4G.
