Bought one of these from aliexpress. Pretty nifty device, you connect it to your car and then your phone to it via bluetooth. You can view a host of things like speed, torque, engine pressure, engine load, coolant temperature etc. etc. in real time.

Also allows you to check whether there are any fault messages being displayed by the engine and if yes, then what is wrong.

The Offtopic Thread

Posted: 20 Apr 2014 02:57 AM PDT

Hi friends i am jjvj.. .. Admin has given me 2 days leave .. and said this...
so i have to come with new id.. which is TEMPORARY.
You have been banned for the following reason:
admin sees everything...
Date the ban will be lifted: 1st November 2007, 10:30 PM


just have a look at that REASON.... they say they see everything.. what the hell were u doing when the fake ids were roaming..

i think u had mentioned the reason as i posted in 1 thread that " admin wont see anything" and i have valid point for that too.. as you were not checking who is posting what and also there were double threads on same topics........

this is disgusting and most bad part of IBF i have ever faced.. now i am fedup with the ADMIN not with any members ....... this is the bad thing i had seen upto now.... every other member can use any languages and insult , fight and still get away but i have been stopped from posting for 2 days........

but now i will show my messages..

I have opted out of IBF for the following reason:
admin sees everything... but is waste, just bans one who does not anything bad.
Date the ban will be lifted: 1st November 2007, 10:30 PM
Date of my return....... NEVER to IBF


good bye and enjoy with fakes...... you dont deserve useful posts..

i am not working here for any salary or so.. so there is no point of me being banned and wait for time to complete and then start posting...... I was just sharing info and having fun along with others..

why changed the like with the rep ?

Is this used computer safe to buy?

Posted: 20 Apr 2014 02:12 AM PDT

Would anyone here please give me some advice? I found this laptop for sale: http://ahmedabad.quikr.com/HP-2000-2d02TU-6-months-old-15-000-Only-W0QQAdIdZ165116262 I WAS planning to buy a new Lenovo but this HP costs at least eight thousand rupees less and is supposedly still under warranty for the next 6 months. I rang up the seller and he said he would show me the bill of sale, warranty papers etc when he comes to my house tomorrow to show me the laptop. He claims he is selling it after having it only 6 months because he needs money urgently. I recently saw another ad by someone who wanted to sell his lappy after only 10 days and he too claimed he needed money due to some emergency. But when I googled his lappy I saw it has a very inferior processor. So though I would like to get a good deal and buy a lappy that is still under warranty, I also wonder why anyone would sell any lappy after only a few months. I suspect these guys failed to do the research before buying and then found out afterwards the processor is too slow or the lappy has some other problem. I googled and read up various sites on: HP 2000-2d02TU And Processor: Intel® pentium ® CPU B960 @2.2GHz 2.2GHz Since those are the specs of the lappy. I found this said on the net: "The B960 isn't a horrible processor, but it is mediocre at best" The seller said it was a dual core, but it doesn't sound like it and it's never a good sign when a seller lies to you. However I only need the lappy for my writing and research. So, word processing and the internet. I don't need it for gaming or watching films or doing any video editing. I do want a processor that handles all my needs without being slow like my last desktop, an Intel Pentium 4, was. I googed "HP 2000-2d02TU heating problem" but found nothing. Is there any software I can run to test for any problems in the lappy? The HP service center is near my house and we could take it there so I can get it checked out by them but then would they be able to tell anything was wrong such as overheating if the lappy seemed to be working fine for some time? I remember reading of one HP lappy series that had some lousy screens that died in a year or two. Not this particular series but it left me with some doubts about HP as a brand, especially since my very first desktop was an HP and it always gave me trouble. And he says he has never used an antivirus on it. Friend of mine warned me that one danger of buying a used lappy is that it could have some rootkit infection or something that corrupted it so bad and went so deep it would be uncurable. So can you please recommend any programs that would check for stuff like that and ensure this lappy--or any lappy I want to buy--is virus free and has no other problems such as overheating and an iffy screen? Thanks a lot.

Thieves at Tata Indicom Broadband

Posted: 20 Apr 2014 01:38 AM PDT

Tata Indicom just stole Rs1300 from my account. On the 13th of September 2013 I received an email that PC Security essentials was being renewed with a 2 user license. I called the helpline immediately to say I did not want this and was told I would hear from them in 24 – 48hrs. After no response for 3 days I called again and was told to send an email to customer services. I received a reply saying it was against company policy to refund subscriptions for VAS.

I have never used, applied for, downloaded, wanted or subscribed to this VAS. Moreover I only use this 1 pc, why would I need a 2 user license ?

When I let them know this for the 3rd time, the reply came as follows:

Dear Mr. Bhattacharyya ,

Greetings from TATA Communications.
 
With reference to your mail, we regret to inform you that PC Security is activated due to auto renewal option enabled at your end. We request you to follow the below steps to disable the auto renewal option:

1. Log on to http://mybusiness.tataindicombroadband.com
2. Click on a link called
[font="tahoma, sans-serif;"]�[/font]Manage your Services[font="tahoma, sans-serif;"]�[/font] listed on top of the main page
3. Login with your usual Tata Indicom user ID and your admin password admin@123
4. Once you have logged in, please click a link called
[font="tahoma, sans-serif;"]�[/font]Manage Services[font="tahoma, sans-serif;"]�[/font] listed on top of the page
5. The page that will load is called the Manage Services page
6. Uncheck on the PC Security auto renewal option.

Also, we regret to inform you that as it was auto renewed at your end, we are unable to provide refund for the same.

I went to that page to check, never even knew about it till the informed me, and found that the option to auto renew was already unchecked. When I let them know this they sent their first stock reply, 4 times now.

I have informed them that they may keep my Rs1300 as it was not worth my time to continue to chase after petty thieves like them provided they use the money to buy Mr Ratan Tata and/or Cyrus Mistry a blow job provided they let me know if they enjoyed it.

They keep responding with a stock reply

Suffice to say I am looking for a good broadband provider in Kolkata at the expiry of this account in November. Any suggestions ?

Bye Bye Hathway. Suggest a DTH

Posted: 20 Apr 2014 01:38 AM PDT

Thinking of booting out Hathway Cable. Cable operator playing games. Lots of downtime due to power cuts either locally or at head-end. No Star Sports and no signs of them coming on soon. 

 

Looking at DTH now. Should I go with Tata Sky or Videocon D2H? 

 

One main HD and one/two add-on SD connections. Don't need recording.

 

I won't mind going for the annual full pack.

Tata 16MBPS plan Juhu

Posted: 19 Apr 2014 11:08 PM PDT

Hello,

 

Im using the 16mbps upto 80gb a month plan.

 

While being irrelevent to the plan, my internet has not been working constantly. I keep receiving frequent request timeouts so i am unable to play games or watch videos.

 

Any idea why this is happening?

 

 

To clarify, the internet is very unstable with frequent disconnects. Ive contacted tata and their engineers have come checked it out. However its been a month and its not been fixed. I have a new modem/router which i bought personally. The issue seems to be with their lines but theyre unable to fix it i think.

 

Wondering if this is happening to anyone else and if there is a solution.

Tata DOCOMO Wired Broadband - My Experience

Posted: 19 Apr 2014 10:35 PM PDT

To all those who are thinking of going for Tata Docomo wired broadband, hopefully I can address some of your concerns.

 

I was so far using Tata Indicom Broadband with a monthly plan of Rs 1800 for 1 Mbps unltd.One day while browsing I came across the plans offered by Tata Docomo which  sounded too good to be true.I immediately called the Tata Docomo customer care and opted for  a new connection. After a bit of follow up, my connection was installed within a week.Here's my experience so far:

 

I opted for the 8Mbps (160 GB FUP) plan for Rs 1500 p.m. At the time of installation, the engineer admitted that even though the plan says 8 Mbps, users generally get between 5-7Mbps. A quick speed test proved this statment to be true.I appreciate this kind of honesty upfront  rather than the smooth talking executives who cheat customers on the pretext of false promises.

 

Its been 2 weeks since I had the connection and the overall experience has been pretty good. There have been almost no downtimes and the speeds stay withing the promised range, in fact of late I have sometimes observed the speed hover around the 7.5 Mbps mark.Installation charges are about Rs 1200 and they give a wi-fi router free of cost.

 

My suggestion to anyone who is looking to switch- go for it!

plan for website business

Posted: 19 Apr 2014 10:23 PM PDT

Hi Firends,

 

I'm searching for a broadband connection to run a website business plan to host it on my own server, which also caters data for PC and mobiles devices.

Due to this the upstream and downstream should be fast, Since I've seen downstream only concentrated by our local broadband guys like (Download unlimited plans)

When we try to upload huge files the speed surges <=250 kbps.

 

Please suggest me if there's any Plan/ approach to the broadband dealer to get the right plan for my requirement?

 

 

Regards,

Sridhar K

Mrs. Doubtfire 2

Posted: 19 Apr 2014 03:14 PM PDT

Fox started developing a Mrs. Doutbfire sequel in 2001, but Williams reportedly rejected the script in 2006, and the project has remained dormant since. The actor noted in a recent interview, "They kept trying and it doesn't work… because at the end of the first one they reveal who [Mrs. Doubtfire] is." David Berenbaum (Elf) must have found a way to make it work, because The Wrap reports Fox 2000 has revived Mrs. Doubtfire 2 with a script by Berenbaum. Williams is on board and Chris Columbus will return to direct.

 

In the original Mrs. Doubtfire, Williams played a recently divorced actor who whipped up a disguise as a Scottish nanny to spend more time with his kids. The report does not specify where Mrs. Doubtfire 2 will pick up.

The Joss Whedon drama based on the Marvel Comics property has landed a series order at the Disney-owned network, ABC announced Friday.
