  1. I voted yes. My reasons for that? Well the past is the past, I have put that shit behind me and grown as a person just because I have managed to do that. Why dwell over the past when you should live here and now (and also hopefully in the future for some time)
  2. And create a number of other different ones as pesky as the current ones “The sum of intelligence on the planet is a constant; the population is growing.” - George Bernard Shaw He who dies with the most toys, wins..... dudeist skydiver # 19515 Buy quality and cry once!
  3. @eeneR Sorry to say but normiss is actually correct. Broadband Modem [Edit to add URL] “The sum of intelligence on the planet is a constant; the population is growing.” - George Bernard Shaw He who dies with the most toys, wins..... dudeist skydiver # 19515 Buy quality and cry once!
  4. Stupid things the support gets to hear. A friend of mine is working for an ISP on their support team. Today a customer called her and said: “Last week I was told by one of your colleagues that if I only restarted my computer I would be able to see what network I belong to. Now I have started my computer in my bed room, the kitchen and the living room. But I don’t get a connection in either room”. When she asked the customer if she had connected her computer to the fiber connection on the wall the customer replies: “No I don’t have one of those (all apartments there have one), but I have an outlet for the police alarm where you say the fiber connection should be placed”. My g/f made a (not so) clever comment once too. When she was asked if she had switched on the modem she said: “I don’t have any modem, I have a broadband connection”. -Yep I have been teasing her about that. “The sum of intelligence on the planet is a constant; the population is growing.” - George Bernard Shaw He who dies with the most toys, wins..... dudeist skydiver # 19515 Buy quality and cry once!
  5. Download NOD32 (30 day trial version) from http://www.eset.com and install it. Clean from Virus. Test again
  6. Ahhh, don’tlisten to the MAC fanatics Right click on “My Computer” left click on “Manage” Expand “Services and Applications” Left click on “Services” Scroll down to find “Print Spooler” Right click on it and select “Start”(if it’s not running) or “Restart” (if it’s running) This should solve your problem. If not find someone to trouble shoot it for you. “The sum of intelligence on the planet is a constant; the population is growing.” - George Bernard Shaw He who dies with the most toys, wins..... dudeist skydiver # 19515 Buy quality and cry once!
  7. A buddie of min did the exact same thing “The sum of intelligence on the planet is a constant; the population is growing.” - George Bernard Shaw He who dies with the most toys, wins..... dudeist skydiver # 19515 Buy quality and cry once!
  8. Hi guys. Stumbled upon this http://www.vimeo.com/1513129 It gets (really) interesting about 4 minutes into the video. Don’t get me wrong I found it all interesting but I wonder if this “anti shake” thingie can be used for OIS based cameras to enhance the video while editing. The shake might be too severe for this but who am I to know? Maybe the gurus here have an opinion regarding this [Edit to correct spelling] “The sum of intelligence on the planet is a constant; the population is growing.” - George Bernard Shaw He who dies with the most toys, wins..... dudeist skydiver # 19515 Buy quality and cry once!
  9. I’m not sure regarding this so please step in and correct me if I’m wrong on this. But the explanation I have got when asking around among my fellow skydivers it just don’t matter if you have SkyHook or a standard RSL, the danger of entanglement will always be there BEFORE the RSL/SkyHook is put to the use. SH / RSL are just different methods of assisting the reserve out of the container. “The sum of intelligence on the planet is a constant; the population is growing.” - George Bernard Shaw He who dies with the most toys, wins..... dudeist skydiver # 19515 Buy quality and cry once!
  10. I'm living in a small Swedish town, Jönköping (try to pronounce that) Sweden's second largest lake to the north and 2 small lakes within the city.

  11. Or is it possible that people are thinking a search might be a first step to try before asking in yet another thread? There is a SHIT LOAD of info regarding you question in other threads. In short, search is you friend!!!! “The sum of intelligence on the planet is a constant; the population is growing.” - George Bernard Shaw He who dies with the most toys, wins..... dudeist skydiver # 19515 Buy quality and cry once!
  12. There is only two reasons in the world that can make me give up skydiving. 1. If my neck problem gets worse, it will not be worth it if I'm in constant pain. 2. If it becomes as expensive that I just can't afford it any more. “The sum of intelligence on the planet is a constant; the population is growing.” - George Bernard Shaw He who dies with the most toys, wins..... dudeist skydiver # 19515 Buy quality and cry once!
  13. I bought the L&B Viso glove. It may not be an optimal placement for i.e. head down flying but I always know where it sits. I have had the gloves now for a year and I'm going to buy a new pair when it's worn out. Thats my 2 cents... “The sum of intelligence on the planet is a constant; the population is growing.” - George Bernard Shaw He who dies with the most toys, wins..... dudeist skydiver # 19515 Buy quality and cry once!

  15. No I'm not really advocating a Samurai for someone with 300 jumps. I just missed to put the "" after that sentence, my bad However regarding the turbulence. I jump at a DZ where we always have a certain amount of turbulence since we have a lot of forest surrounding the DZ and also a couple of peat bogs that creates a lot of thermals. So for us turbulent are a common thing, and that's why I recommend an air locked canopy. I get scared shitless when someone’s canopy collapses. When it comes to a cut away (hasn’t had one YET) I don't think that I give a shit (initially) what happens to my main as long as I get back on the ground in one piece after a malfunction. Landing the canopy in higher winds and dealing with it inflated after that is a small price I'm willing to pay for it's flight characteristics. “The sum of intelligence on the planet is a constant; the population is growing.” - George Bernard Shaw He who dies with the most toys, wins..... dudeist skydiver # 19515 Buy quality and cry once!
  16. Big Air Sportz Lotus or Big Air Sportz Samurai if you want an elliptical canopy They will not collapse like a Stiletto in moderate turbulence (seen it happen quite a few times) “The sum of intelligence on the planet is a constant; the population is growing.” - George Bernard Shaw He who dies with the most toys, wins..... dudeist skydiver # 19515 Buy quality and cry once!
  17. Stick to Sandisk... I have never had any problems no matter the format, SD or what ever.
  18. I chose “Other”. It doesn’t define me as a person but it has during the last 5 years formed me into the person I am today. Skydiving is so much more than just something I do. It’s a hobby, a passion, my ventilation hole when the rest of the world seems crazy. Taking away my skydiving is like denying me of air to breathe. “The sum of intelligence on the planet is a constant; the population is growing.” - George Bernard Shaw He who dies with the most toys, wins..... dudeist skydiver # 19515 Buy quality and cry once!
  19. Spread enough money around and we won't tell him
  20. Yep, it’s definitely a win-win situation. The main thing for me right now is that he don’t find out that I’m setting him up “The sum of intelligence on the planet is a constant; the population is growing.” - George Bernard Shaw He who dies with the most toys, wins..... dudeist skydiver # 19515 Buy quality and cry once!
  21. Some time ago (read 6 months ago) I was a very good boy doing my exercises at the gym at least 2-3 times a week, both some cardio and weight lifting. By that time I was nagging a colleague of mine that he also should tag along, I guess I was kind of a PITA for him back then. Eventually he joined me at the gym but after some time I contracted one bad cold after another so I didn’t go to the gym for a while. Right about now some of you are thinking “been there done that” and of course I lost momentum completely and haven’t been down there until today…. Man was that exhausting or what??? WTF do I take there “training breaks” for?? I almost made myself barf today… To be honest the main reason for going is that my colleague is now a PITA to me, constantly nagging me about being a bit “soft around the waist”, asking me if I have been at the gym, asking me if I want to join him in his tempo at the gym and so on…. I have a plan to shut his cake hole… I will sneak down to the gym during lunch time for a while and not tell him about it… And when I have restored what I have lost during these 3-4 months I will join him for a workout and run the f**ker down… I know it’s pretty immature but I want to give him a payback in return. “The sum of intelligence on the planet is a constant; the population is growing.” - George Bernard Shaw He who dies with the most toys, wins..... dudeist skydiver # 19515 Buy quality and cry once!
  22. Yes we are a bunch of "height challenged" jumpers that are doing just fine “The sum of intelligence on the planet is a constant; the population is growing.” - George Bernard Shaw He who dies with the most toys, wins..... dudeist skydiver # 19515 Buy quality and cry once!
  23. I agree completely. Kids are often way worse than dogs at the DZ. Unless the dog is a small yapping thing, but that's an "owner problem". Just like out of control kids, lack of parenting dicipline. I just HATE that!!!! “The sum of intelligence on the planet is a constant; the population is growing.” - George Bernard Shaw He who dies with the most toys, wins..... dudeist skydiver # 19515 Buy quality and cry once!
  24. LOL... A scientific approach to boobs.. Me like
  25. I agree with you definitely!!!! “The sum of intelligence on the planet is a constant; the population is growing.” - George Bernard Shaw He who dies with the most toys, wins..... dudeist skydiver # 19515 Buy quality and cry once!
