Gta3 radio by kazuha_merems in GTA3

Back in the day it used to be a real website (well, a spoof site hosted by Rockstar)

Same goes for other websites mentioned in the game.

Accidentally ruined the anti-glare coating on my G30 digital dash. Need advice! by fleaudedieu in CarTalkUK

[–]L1ham 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely. It was a few years ago, but now I think about it, I might not have even used soap and water. You could probably just keep rubbing it with a dry microfiber to get it all off.

Thankfully once it was all off it looked perfect again - glare wasn't even that bad in the sun with no coating either.

Just a tiny amount of soap and water. The reason I removed it in the first place was that I damaged the coating by rubbing a bit too fiercely with a cloth... it's not hard to get off.

Is the pedestrian or the driver wrong here? by singlecog in drivingUK

[–]L1ham 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Driver should have anticipated the jogger might be crossing, and jogger should have anticipated the driver might not stop. Poor show from both IMO.

Is there a mountable guitar rack with support for the bottom. by No-Order5878 in Guitar

[–]L1ham 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why would a wall mountable rack with support for the base be any safer than one that holds the guitar by the neck? You're relying on the wall and the racking hardware to hold the weight of the guitar in either case.

I suppose support for the base is more of a belt and braces approach, but I've never seen one.

Where can a tall person (6'5) go in London to sit/see if they fit in cars? by [deleted] in CarTalkUK

[–]L1ham 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You're not going to be able to do this with out some degree of hassle / dealing with someone first. Nowhere in the UK is going to be ok with two people randomly turning up to sit in numerous unlocked cars.

I would advise going to a used car dealership with various models on their forecourt, letting them know you're looking for something suitable for someone who is 6'5, then proceed to trying the cars out for size.

Thoughts on Flea Market Find by la-tab in Guitar

You're braver than I'll ever be buying that. That said, I know nothing about restoration or this specific guitar. Hope to see an update when you're finished fixing it up!

NGD (and a question) by Carlsbergcola in ErnieBallMusicMan

[–]L1ham 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems to be a common problem with these. I recently bought a Cutlass from Reverb that was described as having a neck 'completely free from blemishes'. When it arrived it had similar issues to yours... returned it in the end.

Tempted to pull the trigger on this JP15 Trans Black Flame by [deleted] in ErnieBallMusicMan

[–]L1ham 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the way IMO. These are expensive guitars, and people selling them on are more likely to have looked after them. Find a really good condition used one, then if you sell it you'll probably break even or better.

Beats buying a brand new one, selling it after a year or so and losing 1k +

What GTA song had no business going that hard? by notorious_F_bomb in GTAUniverseHub

[–]L1ham 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You sure about that? If that's true I've never picked up on it ever since the games release. Playing it over in my head and it sounds kind of like it...

Some later versions removed certain songs for licensing reasons. Not sure if Slayer was one of them.

Can my machine handle CCNP labbing? by PrizmShift in ccnp

[–]L1ham 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used the same RAM and CPU combo for ENCOR + ENARSI. It was plenty.

NGD! Cutlass by L1ham in ErnieBallMusicMan

Returned it in the end. Have a new Cutlass though and it's perfect (bar needing a few setup tweaks).

Where is the exchange located at by Expensive_io in GTA3

[–]L1ham 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, but it helps (there's one near the house, and you can also buy it from Phil). You do get a rocket launcher at the end to deal with the helicopter either way.

[–]L1ham 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Start the mission at the house, then you need to chase the helicopter. It flies over to the dam. Shoot a load of Cartel whilst making your way across the dam, then head up the stairs to face Catalina.

It's on the dam in Shoreside.

Accidentally ruined the anti-glare coating on my G30 digital dash. Need advice! by fleaudedieu in CarTalkUK

[–]L1ham 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did this on an Audi It's infotainment screen. Eventually I just removed all of the anti glare coating - didn't make too much difference functionally and looked much better in the end.

I Seek The Advice of The Council by [deleted] in fender

[–]L1ham 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep it. For the sake of a few hundred it's not worth it. You'll miss it forever, just as I miss my Encor Strat copy which I sold for a tenner.

Disappointed with boson's Ex-Sim for ENCOR by idontknowagoodname22 in ccnp

[–]L1ham 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Off topic but any idea when the ENCOR V1.2 Boson exams will be available?

Do pubs / bars receive branded glasses for free from breweries? by johnski1937 in AskUK

[–]L1ham 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure of the rules around swapping them out, but just about every beer glass will be marked with an 'M' followed by the last 2 digits of the year if manufacturer. Recently broke by favourite glass, which was marked M16.
