Obviously struggle with that reading thing hey? :banana:

What I'm doing is not much :P. Its just a coincidence that the goverment has started this consultation days after I put that quote in my sig (not just here). But I thought it was funny.

What I'm protesting: Essentially, the continued trend of the government to try and squash our rights and freedoms under the guise "Won't somebody think of the children!". The two big examples that p1ss me off being the ones in my sig: No 18+ rating for games (ONE man is blocking this, what kind of democracy is that?) And this fr*ggen rediculous internet filter the federal gov't is still trying to push, despite basically everyone being against it, and the fact its not going to do anything to 'help the kiddies'. Its just the gov't trying to control the one form of media they currently have no control over.

Well summed up by one game developer:

So... is it

a) Australia won't get any games that have an 18+ rating and you'll miss out?

or

b) they want to make an 18+ classification for games?

the first one I can see pissing people off, but the second one? so?

maybe I'm missing the point?

So i got the day off work again, but i have a medical certificate now so its all legit.

plus sitting around in my jocks is a better day then working

On that particular issue: We currently DON'T currently have a R18+ classification, so we miss out on some games (ie AvP) and get ghey censored versions of others (ie L4D2). One man (Michael Atkinson, Attorney General for SA) has been blocking any and all discussion/suggestion/etc of introducing one. This appears to be changing now, as the govt has released a discussion paper and has asked for public consultation on the possibility of introducing one. Which is good news.

So you are pretty right. a) IS pissing a lot of people off, and b) up till now has not happened because of ONE man (democracy my arse)

sooo... you do or don't want the 18+ thingy?

I get lost in politics so fast... :banana:

    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
    • So 10/10 times that code is coil packs? I mean if that's the case ill drop the $400USD or so to replace them. I didn't know these cars threw codes before the issue became an issue.
