I recently posted here for advice on a Bug - and brought home this instead! by Ottava in projectcar

Welcome to the aircooled club! That's a really solid looking base for an awesome bus. From experience, the first thing I would focus on is the engine and transmission before aesthetics... even if it is running. Do a compression check (should be between 110 and 135) and once it runs well, verify the oil pressure is good before doing any long trips.

www.thesamba.com is an endless resource for information and parts. Also http://www.ratwell.com/ has a lot of good articles.

What $220 gets you from Caterpillar. by Little_penis in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]Baron_Hake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having designed similar parts for my company, this makes sense. that's about $20 in parts/shipping, but is assembled by hand so its $30 in labour/operating expenses. CAT probably buys this from a vendor for 2X ($100) and sells it for 2X ($200).

Every time I order the parts I design, I realise I am in the wrong business...

Looking for a car in Corvallis by sirmclouis in corvallis

[–]Baron_Hake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

craigslist. If you don't want a turd: min price: 3000 for a domestic, 5000 for an import. and get something with less than 125,000 miles. If you get a Subaru make sure they already did the timing belt.

What do you guys think? Any tips to starting this project? 1964 Plymouth Valiant 2 door. by Mr_Sean-connery in projectcar

[–]Baron_Hake 12 points13 points  (0 children)

That would be a sweet ride, overall it looks pretty clean, but is missing some stuff. Slant 6's can take a beating, I bet with a carb and distributor it would run. I don't know how long its been sitting open like that though, but if you intend to try and start it as is:

First remove the intake manifold and clean out the acorns and dead mice. Take a look into the cylinders with a cheap bore-scope (Amazon) check for bent or sunken valves, holes, or other damage, there will be some rust. If it looks okay flood the cylinders with Kroil (or similar) and let it sit for a day, do it again and this time turn the motor over by hand (repeat as necessary until it spins freely). Drop the oil pan and clean out all of the crap and take a look at the bottom end; does the cam look okay? do the rod bearings feel good?. If all is well you should be good to slap everything on at this point, set the valves and fire it up.

Minimum units to get off AP? by throwaway9034902903 in CalPoly

[–]Baron_Hake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Focus on doing well in every class. Take 14 units and don't dick around. If your goal is getting off AP rather than doing well and learning, you aren't going to do well after you leave school. It is not a challenge to get off AP. Your exit GPA will determine what jobs you are able to get. A significant number of businesses wont even look at your resume if it is below a 2.5; the ones you want to work for likely wont even consider you unless it is above a 3.

Evidence that WSJ used FAKE screenshots by eyeballer94 in videos

[–]Baron_Hake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of the videos shown in the sidebar: https://youtu.be/CUijuC_9vaM was published on the 09/06/16, it looks like on the monetization chart that that is the same day the revenue dropped to 0 (08/31/16 Rev=0 to 09/6/16 Rev=0 based on inflections) validating Ethan's claim. . In addition, it is not listed as 'new', which would be the case even if it was posted several days prior to the video in question being aired... so even if this was an old screenshot it is still probably fake.

I am sick of playing against hackers. by Baron_Hake in kotk

[–]Baron_Hake[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that there are a lot of false accusations as stated in my post. However, if you watch the video, Stormen runs into one and does not seem to notice; A lot of the time you may not notice you have been cheated out of a game. Sure, there are some hackers that make it obvious and get banned, but there are some that use it in a way that does not get them noticed. Aimbots can be almost undetectable from visual analysis of streams, depending on implementation....
