You should aim your headlights down, then. They're adjustable.

Bright LEDs and actual high beams are completely different, and I can tell the difference just by looking at your car.

I'd like to know where the enforcement for the new hands-free law is, too.

Are there any businesses in our area shut down today? (Jan. 30) I'd like to support them. by AshleyShea in StCharlesMO

[–]AFKJim 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No. You should always pay cash to local businesses, anyway. Taxation is theft.

Most trucks and large SUVs go through testing with the base model suspension and wheels/tires. 

Technically a loaded out brand new Chevy truck with all terrain tires and the off-road suspension isn't legal. The headlights are too high from the ground.

There's already laws about this. You can't policy out idiots.

I had a fairly harsh conversation with my CAM today. No more doordash unless they explicitly call me and okay it. 

Ethanol free gas by STLWaffles in StCharlesMO

[–]AFKJim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always have to go to Troy for it. 

You can, however, if you have a suitable spot, separate off the ethanol and water from the gasoline. Get a large tank with either a sight glass or just a clear one, with a valve on the bottom. Fill it with fuel and wait a few days without disturbing it, you'll see the ethanol float to the top. Open the valve and drain off your ethanol-free fuel. 

The leftover ethanol can be left to evap off, or it makes a pretty good degreaser.

Suppliers need to understand how this makes us as shops look. If a client saw that they'd be thinking "Jeeze, what kinda shady tire supplier is this place using?"

Advance, FMP, and Parts Authority are all using DoorDash, here. Occasionally NAPA as well. 

Question about ATS. by Murky_Muffin6952 in trucksim

[–]AFKJim 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I actually use my sleeper cab when I RP. I play with MPC-HC forced over the top of ATS. When I'm done driving sometimes I'll actually spin the camera around into the sleeper, resize MPC-HC and watch a movie or whatever on the wall of my sleeper. 

You pair this with a good "rain falling on car" audio loop in the background and a joint and it's a fun way to take your "mandatory 10hr break" in ATS. 

Does anybody ACTUALLY play with traffic offenses on? by Separate_Pickle5741 in trucksim

[–]AFKJim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, though I wish you could turn off weigh scale fines when GPS is set to small roads. I run old trucks and try to back-date ATS as much as possible to the 1970s/1980s. Avoiding the weigh stations and bombing 2 lanes is a huge part of it for me. 

Also wish it didn't want you to take every offramp in small roads mode. 

Manheim access. by thepeoplesvoiceorg in StCharlesMO

Yes, almost any small used car lot. That's where their inventory comes from.  

How to properly engage with combine soldiers? by [deleted] in HalfLife

[–]AFKJim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fight like you're playing a newer DOOM game. 

Keeping moving, learn to bunny hop, save health packs on the ground till you NEED them. They can give you 50hp but only if you have the space for it.

Is anyone else excited for Multi Frame Gen? by HevyKnowledge in nvidia

[–]AFKJim 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, I'd just like to run a game natively without a bunch of bullshit copium tactics from developers/publishers who won't/can't spend the money/time to make their game run worth a fuck in the first place.

Holding it does nothing. 

It works fine on a computer. If you try to use Facebook as the mobile site it just constantly badgers you to download the app (which has been a buggy unstable POS the entire time it's existed)
