Do You Burnout?

Ok.. Aside from when your about to get new tires and want to roast up the old ones.. Who here has resisted the urge and NOT burned their tires up more than once?
Am I the only one on the planet left who values his 800$ set of tires enough not to burn em out? LOL

So here I am at school in Surrey at 9:40pm in a computer course called Distributed Systems, listening to my instructor talk about RPC (Remote Procedure Call)issues and the process an RPC service goes through upon a failed connection.... Just handed my socket connection program assignment....

And for some strange reason, i can't make some fancy comeback your declaration of my Dorkyness ...


*raises the dork flag high* bwhahaha

LOL

I can't get myself to burn off a perfectly good set of tires, so what I do is bolt on some oldies! I will try and post a picture. I have run my current set of tires for three years!

Nope, I am not able to post a picture, oh well!

Sorry to offend anyone here, but if you own one of these cars and don't burn-out, you're GAY...saaaaaad but true

The whole point to these cars is to annoy old people, scare girl friends and burn off 20,000km worth of tires after about 5,000km.

nods. whats the point then.

may as well drive a cavalier. Not burning out is like buying a 1000 watt amp to power your 300 watt speaker =)

I'll have to disagree...
RPC is definatly in the session layer... do a few googles to confirm .. i just did hehe... You could implement RPC's in an application etc but RPC's work in the session layer. Make sense too since the whole class was about opening sockets and the accessing the Streams ... which are encapsulated in the transport layer =o

Why are we discussing this at 1am.. Argh LOL. Nites!!!
