Frequently Asked Questions

Why does the TrailTech Endurance take a few seconds to show speed changes?

FAQs
With any digital speedometer, it takes two wheel revolutions (sensor triggers) before the computer can make an estimate of speed. The more samples acquired before displaying an update, the more accurate the number (at the end of a ride, the average speed number will be very accurate). For rapid stop/start riding, the digital speedometer will not display accurate numbers. If riding at a "pace", the displayed speed number will be accurate.

What is the relationship between reloads and kB!s?

Glock kB! FAQ v1.35
Successive re-sizing and firing of a case result in eventual weakening of the brass, increasing the probability of case failure. The partially unsupported chamber in the Glock exacerbates this problem. quot;Hard crimping" or overseating of bullets, particularly in the .40 S&W, can cause dramatic increases in pressure almost to the same degree as a propellant overcharge.

Why do I still sit in jail when I have 0 seconds left?

TEC Frequently Asked Questions
The jailers make rounds and let people out approximately every ten minutes. You can wait up to 10 minutes longer than your jail term depending on the timing of the rounds.

What is the difference between KB/s and Kb/s?

Konnections.com - Support - FAQ
When transmitted over a modem, there are ten bits per byte (eight data bits plus a start bit and a stop bit). So if one modem seems ten times faster than another, it's because different units are being used.

Why do I only get credit for one start page every 20 seconds?

AdSwappers: FAQ
Offering only one credit per 20 seconds helps prevent fraud by ensuring that users do not open large numbers of windows in quick succession. Programs that do not have a time limit for start pages will offer lower quality page-views, as there is no incentive for the user to actually look at the site once it has loaded. Since our service loads ads in a maximized window and encourages users to spend time there, visitors will get a better feel for your site.

What is the upload speed?

Charlie Chan Printing: My Documents
Uploading speeds on most servers are roughly 3 times as slow as downloading speeds, so do not be alarmed if your document seems to be taking a while to upload. With high speed internet access, a 1 megabyte document should take roughly 1 minute to upload, and a 5 megabyte document should take roughly 5 to 10 minutes to upload. Speeds will vary based on the speed of the customer's internet service provider's web server.

Why do kB!s occur in these Glock models?

Glock kB! FAQ v1.35
Reports compiled by Speir from various independent laboratories are inconclusive as to one single cause for the catastrophic failures. There do, however, appear to be several contributing factors which collectively may induce catastrophic case failures: Firing out of battery. Most Glocks will do this to some degree, especially those improperly maintained. Significantly overpressure rounds.

Why can't I download at more than xx kb/s?

NoGrip :: FAQ
Due to a combination of factors, namely the high amount of downloads each day, and the availablity of high speed internet connections, it has become necessary to impose an artificial limit on the download speeds for normal users. Also at peak times its not unknown for the download server to have its connection 'flooded' because of the amount of users downloading at once.

How many videos can I upload to the 15 SECONDS group?

What is a kB!?

Glock kB! FAQ v1.35
Coined by firearms journalist Dean Speir, kB! is shorthand for "kaBOOM!," which is the written representation of what happens when one has a catastrophic explosive event in one's Glock. (See also Sidebar Addendum.)

Why Is My Upload Speed Limit So Slow?

Send big files the easy way. Files too large for email attac...
We allow uploads without speed restrictions. In fact, some of our users can upload files at over 400 Kilobytes a second! However, if you are connected with a typical broadband connection you should get around 20 KB per second for send/upload speed. This is because broadband providers set a much lower rate for upload speeds than download speeds. This will depend on your broadband connection and is in no way related to sendspace or our servers.

I'm only getting 50 KB per second speed, why is this slower than my 56k dialup?

Sboca Wireless Network - Support
Actually, you are getting almost 8 times the speed of your dialup! This is a common misconception with how dialup bandwidth speeds are reported. On the Internet, or any network, bandwidth is reported as Kb (kilobits). However, in almost all operating systems (all Microsoft Windows included), bandwidth and storage are reported as KB (kilobytes). The difference being that there are 8 bits in one byte. For example. A 56kbps dialup modem will have a maximum download speed of about 4 KB per second.

Why does Emacs take 20 seconds to visit a file?

GNU Emacs FAQ
Old versions of Emacs (i.e., versions before Emacs 20.x) often encountered this when the master lock file, !!!SuperLock!!!, has been left in the lock directory somehow. Delete it. Mark Meuer says that NeXT NFS has a bug where an exclusive create succeeds but returns an error status. This can cause the same problem. Since Emacs's file locking doesn't work over NFS anyway, the best solution is to recompile Emacs with CLASH_DETECTION undefined.

Ok, I have a modelling package, now tell me everything you know in 20 seconds or less?

Motor World Online - FAQ
BWAHAHAHAhahaha. I actually know very little, I'm what you call a 'HACK', and wouldn't presume to try to instruct anyone since that would result in YOU being as goofy as ME when YOU go to model. Instead, take one (or more) of the packages you've downloaded, and try to make something simple at first, like a chess piece, a stop sign, a wheel, something like that. All of the packages I've mentioned above either come with documentation, or links TO documentation.

Why am I required to spend at least 20 seconds on each site I visit?

AdSwappers: FAQ
We want to ensure that each visit is valuable to the member whose site is being visited. 20 seconds is ample time to get a feel for the site and see if its content interests you. Requiring a minimum time spent on each site also helps prevent fraud and increase the quality of visits.

Why does my radio keeps bleeping at me every 20 to 60 seconds?

Oxfam Stewards :: FAQ
You need to contact the Oxbox ASAP to request a fresh battery. This is very, very important so don't just ignore the bleeps thinking you might have broken it. In extreme circumstances, you may be told by your shift leader or shift deputy to turn your radio off to save your battery, and only to turn it on to send URGENT messages until a replacement battery is sent out to you. (NOTE: This is the only time you should every turn your radio off while on duty).

What on earth are these Kb/s and Mb/s you talk about all the time? What do they actually mean?

Connect 247 - Broadband ADSL Internet Access in the UK
Connection speeds are measured in units of "bits per second", usually Kb/s (Kilo bits Per Second) or Mb/s (Mega bits Per Second). This 512Kb/s means 512 Kilo bits Per Second, 1Mb/s means One Mega bit Per Second and 2Mb/s means Two Mega bits Per Second. In contrast, data transfer (and computer data in general) is measured in units of Bytes. One Byte contains 8 bits.

After I pay for my album(s) or music video(s), what changes can I make?

TuneCore: FAQ
Unfortunately, once an album or music video is paid for, you can make ABSOLUTELY NO CHANGES. However, once the album has finished being delivered to the stores you chose, a link will appear on your My Discography page next to the album giving you the chance to add more stores (not currently available for music videos). If you absolutely need to change something, you'll have to request it specially.

My upload speed is exceeding my upload limit, why?

Emuleplus-FAQ
Check to make sure you have entered the correct limit value for uploads in settings. This might have been changed by you sometime and forgot to return it back to the old value. Values in the capability field have no effect on connection speeds, they are only used for statistical graph purposes. If not any of the above, and the speed is only 1-2KB higher then you might have a huge overhead being made. This can happen and shouldn't be reported.
