nos

Acronym for , Nitrous Oxide Sytems, used for fuel injected cars ( can be used for carbuerated, with a lot more hassle and cussing) to boost the car's acceleration by injecting a pre-determined shot of nitrous oxide into the fuel-air mixture. Doing this creates a feeling similar to turbo-charging your car. This can sometimes be a cheaper alternative to turbo or super chargers. However, nitrous requires refilling whereas turbo does not, so turbo pays off in the long run. Both can create an undesirable high pitched sound commonly heard in briggs and stratton's, I mean 4-bangers. So for a way to increase performance w/out 2-stroke sounds, please see NA

riceboy-dude my nitrous made my car do an 18 second 1/4.
chevyman-yeah, that's cool, my camaro ran that stock without leaving 3rd. ALL THROTTLE, NO BOTTLE!!!

NA

Naturally Aspirated. Used in many gran turismo games. A way of making your car faster and overall better performing than stock, without super or turbo chargers. To do this "tune-up", many things can work, lighter parts for the engine and a lighter block. Also increasing compression (ratio of volume in cylinders when at the down stroke compared to the volume at the top of the stroke. Cam shafts with larger domes to hold the valves open longer. High output injetion or carb and also thinner head gaskets and much more. A more costly way of improving performance, but with great return. For ways of increasing power and making your car a weed eater all in one, see NOS .

chevyman- dude, i had no idea a few little things could make my car the shit.
riceboy-yeah, whatever, my car has NOS and it will take your camaro anyday.
chevyman-what is your 1/4 mile?
riceboy-18.67 @ 80 m/ph.
chevyman-you need to shave about 6 seconds to beat me.

.3~

.3~ or .3 repeating is commonly thought to equal 1/3. Believers of this idea claim that because the number of decimals is infinite, that it must equal 1/3. They sometimes use the supporting example that .33333333=1/3, therefore .66666666=2/3 therefore .99999999= 3/3, or 1. To prove this wrong, you need to consider 2 things. First, and most sensible, 10 is not divisible by 3. Therefore, no matter how many .3's you use, they will never be able to complete the whole number 1. The second thing you need to consider is that with .33333~, you will always be off by just a little from achieving 1/3. This is why when you use a calculator and enter 1/3, the decimal given is .333333334.

.33333333x3= .99999999
.33333334x3=1.02
The answer of what decimal multiplied by 3 equals one is lurking somewhere in between those 2.

Windows

A functional, easy-to-use operating system that can be perfectly stable if you want it to be. The OS is only as good as its operator, guys.

I have been running Windows 2000 Professional for two-and-a-half years, and have yet to see it crash spontaneously. The only time it has ever crashed was when I caused software conflicts myself.
