George, what show is that from?

Its from some random Japanese game which from what I've seen & read is an paradoy of WW2 in strar wars setting where you play as the axis side & beat the s**t out of America.

Thread is now about why Apple sucks.

Every post in this thread should start with "I hate Apple because..."

Sent from my iPhone.

I hate apple because of itunes suck donkey kong ballz

Ummmm... you do know Windows still holds greater than 80% of the home market, right? That makes Windows at least four times better than OSX going off your reasoning :)

I hate Apple because they take people for idiots. $720 to upgrade RAM from I assume 2Gb to 16Gb. GTFO. That's robbery, but then as they say "a fool and his money are soon parted." Perhaps Apple is the IT version of the Darwin Award. "He paid $700 for $60 worth of RAM, a definite Apple contender."

Apple: Cleansing the IT gene pool since 1971.

Yes but apple has only become well known over the past four'ish years or so, give it time and we'll see.

No one is asking you to buy the product, the world is full of stupid people who will pay that money for that ram upgrade and if people keep paying for it then apple will continue to sell it that price. You can hate apple because of the prices they put on their products but it still doesn't mean that OSX isn't a decent OS for the general home user.

Sounds awesome.

I hate Apple because they never give me enough stickers with there products.

I hate Apple because recovering the Restrictions password is practically impossible and post-iOS 5 they like to change themselves for no apparent reason.

f**k the children!

Go tell them to take care of themselves for once...

I hate Apple because I suspect Hilter was a Mac fanboy.

EDIT: oops..

I Hate Apple because...

I live in a house with 5 iPhone 4s users, im the only one with a Galaxy S2.

Every break, at least one of them is asking my how to get some App to work on their phone for when they are on their next stint..

It seems that there are all sorts of apps to "get around" how stupid itunes is. All they want to do is put their favourite porn on the thing and movies so when they are lonely in their donga's they have something to do. It took me over an hour to figure out the stupid f**king app.

Simple answer, get an Android. Drag and drop. Finished.

Then they all forget to bring their chargers home with them. Cant you just use the USB cord from your hard drive? No? Lameburger :P

I tell you what a good business is. Last stint one of them smashed the screen (no surprises there). We got a mobile guy in to fix it, and for the last two years FULL TIME he has only repaired iPhone4 and Ipad screens at $200 a pop. Hasnt touched another phone, and the funny bit, is he uses an HTC. LOL

The Mrs has burned through 4 batteries in 3 years on her Macbook. And her sister has burned through 3.

I hate Apple because they constantly talk shit. My mate, who is not a computer numpty but uses a Mac, was telling me all about his new Pro that he just ordered and how it's got a CPU that's special and only in Apple products and is generations ahead of PC and goes faster than the speed of light and you couldn't build a PC laptop that performs as well for the money and it's instantly on when you open it and the cooling is magical etc, etc.

I tried telling him it's just an Ivy Bridge chipset and Nvidia GPU with a nice monitor, but he was adamant that it was full of unobtanium for non-Mac users. I said nothing more because it's simply not worth arguing with that kind of mindset.

Mac = hyper expensive PC with an OS for dummies. Nothing more, nothing less.

Apple has always been passing off mediocre ideas as being great, or "magical" and the mainstream media (who don't know much about tech) lap it up thinking they were the first to come out with it.

That's not apple's fault, that's just your stupid mate.

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
