    Do you have experience with splitting these kinds of files into quarters?
    I have tried downloading it at my polytechnic and it still would of taken forever.
    I have even tried to download it twice but every time it would cut quarter way (around 400mb) I even tried downloading it from a source that had it split into halves and it still wouldn't fully download one part.

    Sure I can do that. I'll upload to Google drive in about an hour, then update the post with the links. Stay tuned :)
    Ugh. I have the worst short term memory in the universe. Give me tomarrow. I set a reminder on my phone even.

    Try to find 4x4 Screamer off road, that was first, 4x4 Evo is much more arcade speed racing, where as Screamer is more of actual off roading like.

    I just watched "Ghost Rider" for the first time. I've wanted to see it since it came out, and just never got around to it.

    Wow.

    It's a mess.

    It's very likely the worst acting I've ever seen out of Nick Cage.
    The setting is strange too, Texas plates on all the vehicles, but nothing looks like Texas, and everything has a distinct "Australia" vibe to it.


    This could have been a really good movie, but this was a disaster.

    That's because you didn't get the double-coat ones.

    --- Post updated ---
    Put it on flat mode, or apply an edge-split modifier to get a combination of flat and smooth.

    Got sick of having to use a 3.5mm to 3/4" adapter with my 'phones so I just replaced the cable on them with a 3/4" cable. Looks almost factory. They're Superlux HD668B's for those interested.

    Thanks alot, you are a bloody legend!
    try to keep them just above 500mb because its more manageable for me.

    Or if you can download and upload this file as somehow I can't access it anymore for some shitty reason.
    never mind the other file i downloaded was corrupted.

    i think my favourite example of this is snowday. a christmas movie set in a small town in USA. where kids are enjoying a snowday!


    this movie was (partially) filmed in my hometown, edmonton. which is neither american, or a small town. not to mention we never get snowdays :/

    Whats weird is basically every car in the movie was either a Ford van or a 9C1 Caprice.

    I didn't catch the movie from the beginning, but as soon as I sat down, it only took about 3 minutes before they showed a highway scene with a KW T403, and KW K200, both of which are Aussie only models.

    Not to mention the trailers where obviously not American, and that the road markings are entirely wrong.

    I don't understand the reasoning behind that decision.

    They do it because the usual people who watch these sorts of things aren't into cars or trucks.

    Thought my faithful Nexus 5 had breathed it's last, had the power button stuck issue for the second time. It started off by booting itself up and then shutting off straight away when at the lock screen, then after a while the button did nothing at all. Apparently it's very common, I don't know how I fixed it but I poked around at the button for a while and must have dislodged it somehow.
