00:26.40purlACTION notices a shimmy in the front end of his GTO
01:16.45gn00biewhat? scott is ~shaking?
01:47.47orangegn00bie: your lug nuts are too tight
01:53.24gn00bieorange: :P
01:53.38gn00biepeople usually tell me I have loose screws, not tight
01:55.20orangegn00bie: well, that too
01:55.24orangebut I mean your warped rotors
01:55.43orangeI didn't know you actually had a shimmy... it's not as funny now :-)
01:58.08gn00bieorange: it is very very faint
01:58.25gn00bieyou need a combination of a wet day, uneven road surface, and hard braking
01:58.46gn00biethe problem with being an auto engineer is that there is something always wrong with your car
01:58.50gn00bieit is never perfect
02:00.41gn00biethe rotors are just overmatched for this car's weight, I will get something better when it is time to replace
02:01.04gn00biethe car's weight, and my treatment of all inputs to the vehicle as binary
02:01.14orangeperhaps a regenerative braking system
02:01.21orangebinary, that's a good one
02:02.06gn00biethese are good ones, a friend has them on his bimmer http://www.frozenrotors.com/
02:03.15gn00bieI am really tough on the cars that I drive

02:17.03orangegn00bie: many people never have to change the brake pads on their prius
02:17.06orangeas in, ever
02:28.38gn00bieorange: next time I am in the south, we need to ride in each other's car
02:28.52gn00bieyou show me what you like about the prius, I should you what I like about the GTO
02:29.26orangethat's not really fair
02:29.39orangeyou'll probably fall asleep, and I'll have a myocardial infarction
02:29.54gn00bieno no
02:30.09gn00biemy favourite GTO moments are the one of cruising around lazily at 35 mph
02:31.05gn00bielet me put it this way - when you had a wrist watch, was it 30 m waterproof?
02:31.24orangenaturally
02:32.24gn00bienow what are the chances of you going 30 m under water with the watch on?
02:32.44gn00biethe worst that could happen was splash when washing hands, or getting caught outside in the rain
02:32.50orangeor swimming
02:33.03orangebut yeah, 3m
02:33.07gn00bieoh yeah, I forgot about your pool
02:33.27gn00biebut it is still nice to know that if you really really had to, you could go 30 m under water and not damage your watch
02:33.43orangehowever, I sometimes rinse off with a fire hose
02:33.50gn00biesame thing here, it is good to know that I can go 170 mph, get to 60 in under 5
02:34.03gn00bieyou rarely do either, but it feels nice to have that option
02:34.13orangenothing wrong with the 0-60, it's the 170mph that would worry me :-)
02:34.28orangeacceleration is fun, pure speed is dangerous
02:34.50gn00bienow I do respect the arguments of the CO2phobic crowd, the watch's carbon footprint is trivial, the GTO on the other hand..
02:35.11orangejust plant a few trees
02:35.27gn00biea tree fixes maybe 50 lbs of CO2 per year
02:35.44gn00bieover half a ton goes out of the GTO tail pipe per year
02:36.11orangeplant a forest :-)
02:36.15gn00biewhat is the fastest you have gone in a car?
02:36.32orangeor a small grove
02:36.48orangehmmm, I went 120 in a Mustang GT
02:37.02orangethat's pretty much it
02:37.06gn00biemy SC-GA stateline to NC-SC stateline romp was done at an average of 101.3 mph
02:37.17gn00bieI will let you fill in the blanks
02:37.32orangeack
02:37.42orange~synflood gn00bie
02:37.43gn00biethere is nothing wrong with the speed, as long as you have the equipment and training to do it, the road can let you, and the other drivers are disciplines
02:37.49gn00biedisciplined
02:38.06gn00biethe problem is usually other drivers, with roads a close second in the frost heave prone north
02:38.14orangeor you don't have a blowout
02:38.26gn00bie193.x miles, 1 hour 54 minutes
02:38.35gn00bieI do not cheap out on tires, the GTO tires are 200 a pop
02:38.40gn00bieso a tire change is a grand
02:38.59orangethey aren't immune to all road hazards though
02:39.26gn00bietrue, nails, small furry animals, deer, tread separation debris, etc
02:39.43orangebumpers
02:40.01gn00biethere are a surprising number of bumpers on 75 in GA, I dunno why
02:40.51gn00bieto me, the GTO is symbolic of something
02:41.01gn00biethat sense of endless power
02:41.12gn00biethe triumph of torque over intelligence
02:41.30gn00bievs. the relentless quest of efficiency in case of the prius
02:41.42gn00bieand the triumph of intelligence over everything else
02:50.20gn00bieand now
02:50.22gn00biebed time

16:19.50ndimkierra: :)
16:20.31ndimSo there is just one question remaining: Where to bed my tired limbs.
16:20.33kierrai get to meet the real ndim!
16:20.58ndimOh my.
16:21.38kierrai know, scary thought indeed
16:21.53ndimI'm still thinking whether you'll get to meet the ndim with the beard, the ndim with the sideburns, or the shaven one.
16:22.56ndimI guess laziness will emerge victorious, i.e. the beard.
16:26.03kierranah, i like facial hair
16:26.23kierrai met Les when he had a mustache
16:26.56kierrathen he shaved it about 16 yrs ago....but I lobbied for it to come back and it has

17:56.49orangedo you have time to grow some?
17:56.52orangethat would be awesome

18:02.46scottthat is awsome
18:07.11ndimorange: I'd just need to shave off the bottom part of the beard.
18:08.01ndimProblem is that then I'd need to keep shaving.
18:08.18orangewould be fun, though
18:08.39ndimWhich I am too lazy to do, so I prefer the beard. Cut every few weeks, and that's all I need to do about it.
18:08.51ndimBut indeed, that would be fun.
18:08.57orangeyou could just do it once
18:09.01orangeright before you see everyone
18:09.05ndimI might just try it.
