No compression was required.

Thanks for the info . Did you have to compress the new coil spring to line up the lower bolt holes, or did the wheel assembly drop down enough when you jacked the car up?

Comment on LOLCat Generator in PHP by EF

I get an error on your demonstration page every time I try to provide a URL of an image. It says:

Error 2: getimagesize() [ function
lolcats.inc.php at line 82

Any suggestions? I really appreciate your work on this, and have thought about turning it into a Drupal module.

Thanks.

Thanks for posting. I’m interested in a geospatial database application and this should be very helpful

Comment on Dynamic SOCKS Proxy using PuTTY by Truls

There’s no need to add myservername:X as destination, that parameter isn’t used for dynamic port forwarding.

This is great! Thanks! Quick newbie question… Are the joystick X/Y inputs reversed? I’m practicing with an ArcadeDrive and moving the X axis slider shows two PWMs in the same direction and moving the Y axis slider shows opposing PWMs. My intuition would think this should be opposite based on the specs. But, my intuition/code might be incorrect as well. Thanks!

@person1873

Where is the partition table written? Does overwriting the MBR also kill your whole harddrive (making everything seem like it vanished)?

In FireFox, don’t forget to go to about:config and set network.proxy.socks_remote_dns to true. Otherwise, DNS will leak out of the proxy, and some places may use DNS servers to enforce blocking of sites.
