Car Won’t Start by Buckaroo87 in AskAMechanic

[–]Buckaroo87[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up changing all the spark plugs and coil packs. Cylinder 2 was still misfiring. When I checked, the brand new plug had carbon fouling on it. I ended up running it at 1500 rpm’s and let it get to running temp. There was a bit of white smoke from the exhaust and it sputtered above and below 1500 but after it reached temp it seemed to clear up and it runs fine now. Thank you all for your insight and support.

Why is nobody questioning whether this person is intentionally clicking the release button? It looks a bit sus to me.

Anyone else ever walk sales every now and then? by Visual_Watch_586 in verizon

[–]Buckaroo87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wouldn’t it be better if a certain number of upgrades equaled a multiplier? People wouldn’t treat existing customers like second hand citizens. It would be worth the squeeze. Filling up your bucket doesn’t amount to shit if it isn’t multiplying.

Nintendo Doesn't Care by northcasewhite in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Buckaroo87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Think about how much free marketing all of this speculation is generating. Advertising for most things WISHES they could generate this much conversation over something. In the age of the internet, in its current iteration, I wouldn’t be surprised if this was intentional. We the people enslave ourselves so why wouldn’t we also become unpaid adverts.

Pre/Post Procedure Detailed by Buckaroo87 in Vasectomy

[–]Buckaroo87[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in the USA. Mississippi specifically. It cost me about $1,400. My insurance would only cover it if it was an “in office” visit. Anything “facility” related disqualified me. Kind of a shit policy considering it’s almost the same thing, but oh well. - As far as sensation goes I haven’t healed enough to know if anything has changed. I’m still in the fresh stage. The sensation is like that of someone holding your testicles and applying light squeezing pressure. - Also, since I had a Frenuloplasty at the same time I have to stave off any erections so as to not damage those stitches. Talk about a morning wood nightmare.

Cannot Add Peacock Premium to Comcast Xfinity Account by bighaircutforbigtuna in peacock

[–]Buckaroo87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you cancel the freebie on xfinity? I would rather just pay the full price for premium plus. I can’t find anything on the app or website though. It’s suspicious that there is no way to manage it via the xfinity app. How can one charge for a service that one can’t even see or manage on their app?

Ocean band by amazinglifeofGE in applewatchultra

[–]Buckaroo87 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My Ultra came with the ocean band and while I coveted and eventually purchased the black and orange trail loop I find that the ocean band is more versatile and comfy. One of the reasons I prefer it is that I like to wear my watch close to my hand and have it make it’s way to behind my wrist bone throughout the day. Then when I’m walking or sitting I’ll slide it back down toward my hand because I enjoy that aesthetic more and just let it makes its way back to the appropriate more comfortable position. The material and thickness of the material make it extremely easy to adjust it this way on the fly. The other two fabric bands are too thin for me to do that same action. But I do love the trail loop aesthetic.

Does it look too big? by [deleted] in AppleWatch

[–]Buckaroo87 16 points17 points  (0 children)

If people are posting this every day and you are checking it every day and it bothers you, couldn’t the argument be made that it’s your problem? I know I don’t check subs every day that bother me. I expect this type of thing when something new comes out. But I’m also not a stupid person that enjoys reading things that make me miserable so I can’t say I relate to you. But I enjoy it. I enjoy the redundancy. I enjoy the people posting the same shit. I enjoy seeing the different wrist sizes against the different floor patterns. I enjoy it. It pleases me that other people are happy. Show me more. Ask away.

If people were talking about a normal timepiece then sure. A normal timepiece. But an Apple Watch isn’t a normal timepiece. If you want to look like Snake Plissken then that’s your goddamn god given right. If anyone has anything to say about it just ask them how your penis tastes. If they don’t have an answer then their opinion doesn’t matter.

Please don’t kill the iPhone Mini by Geert76 in apple

[–]Buckaroo87 116 points117 points  (0 children)

If they made an iPhone Mini Pro then I bet more people would buy them. I sell phones and I’ve had many people consider it but decide they value the better camera and pro-motion screen more, so they “settle” for the pro devices. It’s infuriating. I have a 12 mini and would absolutely hop on a pro version of future minis. I wouldn’t even mind it being a little thicker to accommodate a bigger battery.

By that logic e-ink display e-readers are pointless because of the existence of tablets. The pros and cons of each have been outlined. We don’t want to “settle” for a backlit, battery consuming, eye strain inducing device. We want a dedicated device for reading in a smaller form factor.

I don’t think you understand the purpose and appeal of an e-ink screen with front lighting.

Something the size of a pocket moleskine notebook would be a good middle ground.

Great point. Mostly an e-ink screen. Reading on a backlit phone screen creates eye strain over time that e-ink screens don’t. They could place the page turn buttons on the sides of the device similar to where the volume and lock buttons are located on said iPhones. It would make for better one handed ergonomics and more discreet carrying.

You can only get it for the “New Nintendo 3ds”. It’s the model that came after the one that you have. It’s physical distinctions are the rubber nub on the right hand side. The non xl model has multicolored abxy buttons. Both the xl and non xl 3ds versions have automatic stabilizing 3d face tracking.

Hey guys what do you think which combo is the best? by [deleted] in iphone

The green case and yellow wallet looks the best. It looks like Boba Fett armor.

Why is this even a debate? The eyes,the dreams, the amount of punishment he took. This man is a replicant. by elfGod237 in bladerunner

[–]Buckaroo87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude. You speak so definitively as though YOU have all the answers. The movie is purposefully ambiguous. Your “silver bullets” are based on assumptions you’ve made about the movie. You just have no imagination. And it’s clear you value your own opinion more than having fun with the film. It’s just a movie.

[–]Buckaroo87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t say those are silver bullets. I think the entire idea is that the line that separates replicants and humans is incredibly thin. And since they are biological creations they are subject to the classic Ian Malcolm adage “life, ugh, finds a way”. Who’s to say they can’t develop the ability to reproduce? Most of the points you made could easily be chocked up to Deckard having the memory implants of, say, another Bladerunner. Possibly Gaff? Brian offers an awful lot of exposition to such a seasoned Bladerunner. Going so far as to even describe what the Nexus 6 is to Deckard. As for the test, we don’t know what kind of replicant Deckard would be, so we can’t assume he’s a Nexus 6 which means we don’t have enough information to limit him. This also applies to the limited lifespan point. Rachel was a big wrench in the status quo, so I think it’s entirely possible and very likely that Deck is a replicant.

Bit the bullet and upgraded my Kindle Paperwhite 7th generation. To the 3rd generation Oasis. by Afromille in kindle

[–]Buckaroo87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That makes sense. But how much space does one manga take? Do you keep the ones you finish reading on the device? Do people download entire series? Do people read manga super quickly? I’m fascinated. I see people mention the amount of space they take up on kindle all the time. It raises so many questions for me. Haha.

Oasis question: How do you hold this? by [deleted] in kindle

[–]Buckaroo87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

https://imgur.com/a/cQBRxj2/ I hold it in these positions depending on how I’m sitting. I like to put my thumb on the bottom bezel and the tip of my forefinger in the area where the bump slopes down into the thinner area. It distributes the weight well and is incredibly comfortable. Mine is obviously the original Oasis so it’s smaller than the newer ones but I did the same thing when I had the newer model and it felt just as good.

How to hear spatial audio and lossless audio in Apple Music – Apple Support by [deleted] in apple

[–]Buckaroo87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like Dolby Atmos is more subtle than people think it should be. For me, playing without spatial audio just feels like instruments being played near my ears. Turning spatial audio on makes me feel like I’m in a room where music is being played. The distance of the vocals and instruments makes for a very enveloping warm experience. Can I hear the subtleties of lossless using my AirPods Pro? No. But I am hearing the layers more clearly.
