FUNK IT! Ok sorry for the cheap clickbait, but this is how I'm killing time during the lock down, and since there isn't much going on here any ways. Thought why not share it, fresh off the press! Enjoy. Use headphones or decent speakers for maximum funkness! Don't forget to like, share, subscribe you know the usual BS

Ouch that doesn’t sound very well. Have a look in the engine bay to see if nothing connected to the drive belt is hanging loose or hitting the fan. I don’t think it’s the engine itself, sounds more like a fan bearing or the fan clutch. When the engine is off try once to rotate the fan to see if the same sound is coming.

Could be a plethora of things to a bearing on one of the ancillaries gone for a dump, fan hitting something, or something inside the block. A loose timing chain with broken guides sounds like that but the Mister Bushy has a belt. In all cases doesn't sound healthy and go get it looked at. And before you ask, no I don't know where or who to take it to or how much its going to cost.

It's all done on FL studio with no external hardware synths and instruments. Totally in the box with studio headphones Only external hardware I use sometimes is the Korg Mini 25 midi keyboard to figure out some chords and stuff. Because I'm tone deaf and know very basic music theory

I like American cars and i grove up with my grand father`s Jeep CJ5 stories so here i am. Jeep = Off Roading.

15 years away from production - i.e it's just pie in the sky which will never see the light of day. And in 15 years many others and probably better will come along

I grew up in shops among cars and engines being rebuilt, restored and repaired. My dad made off-road cars for the Baja 1000 and Baja 500 races and also modified Jeeps and other cars. I have back home different cars and pickups so obviously I've always loved cars, I've been offroading all my life on sand, rocks and mud so when I arrived to the UAE I bought a jeep and joined carnity to learn how to do it in this terrain since deserts are way different back home.

Is there already a threat going on for this? If so, I will emerge this one, otherwise this will be the one to continue. Received this in one of my whats app groups. Wow. Share videos/ links of offroad videos to enjoy. IMG_3473.MP4

Lately I am hearing a rattling or grinding noise coming from the engine of my 2008 Mitsubishi Nativa. Initially the sound was very little and goes away after 5-10 minutes driving. But now the sound is bit louder and it don’t go away after engines warms up. when im driving for longer Its not constant sound, Sometimes it comes and go away randomly. Below video clip was taken soon after the engine was started. You can hear the sound like grinding. Any advice or recommendation for good experienced mechanic or garage in Sharjah for a decent price.

Tried with AC on and off? Just to eliminate the AC compressor, pulley and belt. One less thing out of the equation. Also change your radiator cap as its leaking and leaving the rust or coolant mark. I hope you are not running on water, use Mitsubishi recommended coolant to inhibit rust on internal component.

I've driven quite a few off road cars over years TROOPER, PRADO, XTERRA and PAJ Mk2 and 4, and I must say. I think in 4x hi or lo, the Pajero engine is really well tuned for dune driving. It may lack a few CC or raw power, but I do like the way the engine is tuned. Pls discuss.

I played it on my Home Theatre Harmon Kardon it sounds amazing. I am going to share this with my daughter and see if w can create some dance moves and share it here if she permits.

Nice, can you give some feedback on which Software you are using ? Reason ?, FLStudio ? , Virtual Synths or real equipment ? Cubase ? I used to make similar Tech-House stuff some years back, with FLStudio and some VST's.

Really nice, good to see making the best use of lock down.

Just bought the Canon G3415 right now for 500 dhs, will test and see how it goes. As younger one has lot of home work now for print outs. First week batch had about 70+ prints.

Unique, advance and welcome technology developed by introducing environment friendly organic battery. Radical environmentally friendly organic batteries are a “very promising technology” being evaulated by Mercedes-Benz for future use in road cars – but it's at least 15 years away from mainstream production.

P.S : Mrs said you can have the ink refilled now for 35 dhs through these juggard office supply and stationary shops

Oh stupid me! I've had this exact printer in my house for the last 3 weeks and didn't even notice it. The Epson L3150 the Mrs brought this over from her office when they started working from home. They had this in her office for about a year now with daily office use this is the level in the ink tanks now

Fond of long drives in home country and explore mother nature. In UAE, after joining Carnity, gives good platform to the person kind of me to explore mother nature, play with Sand, away from concrete jungle, team work, endless leaning opportunities.....all possible with with off-road drives!! This is unique happiness, you can't buy

I'll probably fly a few flights myself on my PC ( you need one of those for a proper flight sim ) Good stuff mate. Last console I had was also the PS2 but I only ever played GT or Tekken on it. Recently I discovered how to play PS2 games on my PC via a PS2 emulator so I'm good

Flight simulator 😂😷😁

This excellent is excellent.

I bought myself a ps4, last console I had was a ps2. Somebody else at home is now “accidentally” walking in front of the tv. 🧘🏻‍♂️😑

I hear ya man. I know the airline industry is one of the hit hardest in this situation along with other tourist and travel related industries. All my Safari buds also have been sitting at home for almost a month now. Future is unpredictable and life as we know it is on hold. But hang in there and keep your spirits up. Look at it as a time to stop from ones busy life and smell the flowers. Learn a new skill you've always wanted to but never had the time. Start or finish DIY projects. Fly a few virtual long hail flights Me personally have gotten back to my music production after 2 years. Nothing kills time better than sitting in front of your computer and jammin' while making some tunes for hours! Anyways as long as you have your health and family. It's not that bad. A lot of people right now are doing a lot worse and would kill to be in the position we are right now. Cheers

Sorry guys, I am not creative or talkative these days, due to the situation. Moved in 2017 to the UAE. First 2 years I had no car, rented a Yaris when needed and later I used Udrive or Ekar. Not being a daily driver due to work, don’t need to drive to work, they are picking me up and dropping off home for duty. I like sportcars, thats my thing. When I rented a Mustang and they flashed me after 10 minutes, I was sure it will not be a sportcar in Dubai for me. Looking for a car that I could utilize as much as possible, so I ended up with a 4 x 4. A choice of practicality. Friends took me out to the desert, I came home with a very big smile and big eyes like a kid. My fiancé that time asked me, wow what happened? You really look amazed/ happy! That was the moment I start searching for a club, and here I am.

Ok Since the Mrs is working from home we physically brought her desktop home as the office is also closed and entire company is working from home. Problem is it's some old ass HP which doesn't even have wifi but has a USB WiFi card which worked at the office but won't connect to the home Network. And it's not a number of connected devices issue. Ive watched many YouTube videos on trying to fix this issue but the problem is Everytime I try something like updating the driver or anything there is an admin password and the guy who did this is long gone so nobody in the office knows the password either So anybody know how to hack the admin password on Win 7 professional? I've been fighting with this for over week now with no luck so please don't link me any YouTube videos or anything. Tried them all.always at the last step it stops and asks for the password. Just to clarify, Mrs can log on with her ID and password and use the computer just can't connect to wifi. It connects to the router but say no internet access. Any help? Just need to connect to the internet. Tried using my other two laptops as hotspots no luck, phones as hotspots no luck.

Thanks, let me try the boot cd, first I'll have to check if any of the CD drives on any of my machines are still working. I can't even remember the last time I used those! lol

OMG Hiren's boot CD. I didnt know this even still existed. I remember using either BartPE or Hiren's Boot CD to recover operating systems.

Hope this help, advice from Senior Sys Admin.

In some Windows 7 setups, there is a hidden Administrator account (only if activated prior). You can Google on how to access it and this account doesn't have a password.

They had Epson 3150 now.

Hi @Gaurav I am using Epson L355 since April 2015 @Aed 500. Same technology. Amazing & very economical option for home use. Claims are correct as I only refilled the ink tank in 2019 (after 4 years). Printer is 3 in 1 (scanner, printer & copier). You can even use photo paper for photo printing. Other option with dual printing and paper tray (automatic) is little expensive around AED 800. Is also on promotion at Cr4’s. 10/10

A very happy happy birthday @Rahimdad

Thanks @Frederic I am in the same boat that uses inkjet print out very less like once in 2-3 months but ink dries up faster and I keep getting 50-75 dhs cartridges every few months. Im currently using Canon Pixma 5200, pretty solid all-in-one but hell thirsty. I myself was thinking of upgrading to B/W laser and checked that Samsung M2020 for 300 dhs, but delivery was also 2-4 weeks, seem something wrong with Amazon atm. In the meantime, lulu and carrefour sales guys perfectly brainwash me for this ink tank printer and as per my yesterday research, they seem to be good to try now. Launched in 2015, first retail printer came in 2017-2018 in UAE and all companies have had 4-5 upgrades so far. So it seems it is in stable technology mode with reasonable price tag. It might reduce by 10-20% more in next few years, but I don't see a big drop, as they cleverly need to sell inkjet more than inktank. So price gap in all technology must be maintained.

Because i hardly print anything at home but had an inkjet printer that was always giving me troubles because the cartridges would dry out from sitting idle, i decided to buy a Samsung M2020 Black and White laser printer for 300dhs: https://www.noon.com/uae-en/xpress-sl-m2020-laser-printer-white-brown/N18407072A/p I was so happy with this little thing that i bought a second one later for my house in Belgium. Mainly to printout mails, flight tickets, concert tickets, and stuff like that while i am on vacation in Belgium. If Black and White printing is OK, i highly recommend this one. Its super fast, print quality is laser so very good, and was really cheap. The toner lasted a very long time too.

From childhood I have been more or less an indoor person. My first offroading experience was the GNFD 2012 in Liwa. It was a fantastic experience to see the vastness of the desert. After that I did the GNFD 2013 in Lisalli. It was a real struggle through some of the technical dunes and it turned me off from offroading. Then in Jan 2017 I received a notification from Carnity about an Absolute Newbie drive in Maliha. I had a rough week at home and office, and just wanted to get away. That's when I met Gaurav and Rahim Bhai for the first time. That drive showed me how beautiful nature is, if we are willing to step out of our comfort zone. The two of them not just became off-road friends but brothers for life. They were there for me when I had an incident on my second drive and ensured that I reached home safely. It's been 3 years and I have been out with the Carnity family every weekend. Drives for me these days are just to meet everyone, chat, have karak tea and ofcourse have Aloo Parathas

For me it all started 11 years back when after my fourth desert safari I saw a bunch of Jeep Wranglers and realized people have clubs and can venture out on their own. I had a Toyota Echo at the time and with a greed of saving around 45 minutes by doing a little desert stretch. I almost made it once, but with a stuck situation I decoded to read, some clubs at the time had awesome posts and was good for 6 months read. But just reading was not going to be sufficient, I needed some hands on experience. My wife had a Mitsubishi Outlander AWD, I had my first mountain drive in that and soon realized how important a proper offroad vehicle was. At this point I sold my Toyota Echo and went for a Jeep Commander 5.7 Hemi. It was just to get some experience and save my 45 minutes on that Sharjah to Dubai stretch. With my holiday cancelled by my office and no family in the house, I used to do up to 4 desert drives a week for 4 weeks. By now unknowingly I had been addicted to offroading. Desert had become my best friend and with the measures put in place by Sharjah police my saving 45 minutes was short lived. It's been since that I have not looked back and been around the desert. Honestly my love of the desert has survived, but not to push my boundaries to discover what I can or cannot do. My passion is to make more like minded friends on the way I can teach and learn from to have a safe passage through our beloved terrain.
