Hhmm. With the stereo out, I might as well get an adapter converter thing for component to stereo, I know I saw one of those.
I know audio out works. I just haven't been able to determine if the video out works, as only shit I have to output to, is still in stone age. Aside from my LCD, which does have HDMI. May have better luck with component to HDMI or DVI? I think may have an SVID input too.
Few answers I found before going for it, said component would have no problem displaying on a composite device. Now all answers I find is "lolz just kidding."
Would at least like to know it works. Then to get it working & make this investment pay itself off eventually.

Your tires are fine. Are they made of rubber? Do they hold air? Is there at least 1/16" tread depth? If you answer yes to these three questions then your tires are fine.

100 times on the chalk board!

MY TIRES ARE FINE!

The solution to your problem is obvious and is accomplished with two words:

SLOW DOWN!

Yes, yes, yes.

My tires are sufficient for standard driving.

I do not drive point A to point B. I am not a mindless driving drone. I drive in a spirited manner.

:awe:

That's a hot dog. Insurance agent's nightmare. Young boys tend to do that.
Of course I think US drivers particularly in NYC are actually pretty easy going.
You should see how they drive on the islands. It's quite scary.
This is why I don't drive but needless to say that does not mean there's nothing to worry about. I was given a ride in a fast car with over 1000hp. It was noisy and fun like an amusement ride. When someone pulled up to the car showing a machine gun I was glad this guy had a fast car. Left that Hyundai so fast it was like he was in the other lane heading in the opposite direction! Chirped the tires on first three gears like watching the planes land, smoke and all! But it costs a lot of money.

I'd rather have a big truck with 650 pound feet of torque (diesel) with six wheels or more. Thugs try to stop you just run them over! If they park in your way out comes the wire rope, drag their car for a mile up a hill and let it roll down the mountain. That will show 'em!

I guess my shop is having a Grand Opening celebration thing going on in this next week.
However, I am confused & find it mildly awkward that they are doing that after having been here for nearly 7 months.
But ok.

It's basically just an excuse for a party/sale.

I've been fighting for drive space on my porn drive for months... didn't occur to me until today to clear out the recycle bin. /facepalm

Heh.

I, on the other hand, wish my server didn't direct delete bypassing the recycle bin when using remote desktop, I've deleted a few things by accident.

I have a question though, inspired by your comment!

I assume all of your porn is guy on guy? Guys masturbating?

I'm not an insurance agent's nightmare, because I'm actually a considerate driver, I'm extremely aware of my surroundings, and I'm a competent driver. My vehicle is properly maintained, and has performance characteristics well beyond average. It's nothing like the 19 year old blasting rap so loud the sheet metal is rattling, slouched in his seat with one hand balanced on top of the wheel, not checking his mirrors as he carves through traffic in a 1996 Toyota Camry with four mismatched wheels, bald tires, blown suspension, and worn brakes.
