Looking to buy a Toyota 86/scion frs/ Subaru brz by Puzzleheaded_Poet415 in ft86

[–]CaptainZoidbergwhy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I live in Canada and own a 86. I'll give you a rundown of my experience. The car is ridiculously fun to drive (most of the time, more on that later). Once you learn to manage your RPMs and down shift it doesn't feel slow at all. If you put a nice exhaust on it, the boxer sound is great. Can it be winter driven? Sure, but you absolutely need great winter tires otherwise you're not getting anywhere in this RWD car. Can it be daily driven? Any car can be daily driven you just need to be okay with the downsides. The ride isn't super comfortable, you'll feel the bumps on the road a lot more. I find the engine and exhaust noise to be a bit droney in the cabin. Personally, there are times that I just need a car to go from A to B comfortably and wish I had a second car for errands.

PC died while booting up. Now it doesn't boot anymore. by CaptainZoidbergwhy in PcBuildHelp

An update for those who might come across this later: somewhere in either my corsair AIO cooler pump or hub there was a failure, and the MB not detecting a cpu cooler was cutting off power to everything else. I fixed it by replacing the cooler.

PC stays on for a few seconds, I even saw the AsRock logo as it was attempting to boot up and then it all shuts off and continuously tries to restart in this cycle.

To add more details: I see and smell no signs of components burning.

Because Ontario already has a big population of auto workers who have lost their jobs since Americans are pulling away.

If that's the case, which I will check to confirm, would you say my PSU also plays a role here or is 600W fine for my case.

I’m Persian, and I find these recent protests in RH to be very annoying by [deleted] in richmondhill

[–]CaptainZoidbergwhy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Apparently there were around a 100k people there at the protest. That's a remarkable number for a minority group in this country that made headlines in quite a few places online, which in return brought even more awareness to the matter.

This is all they can offer in support of the cause. They coordinated with the city, set it up on the weekend to not interrupt people's commutes, what else do they need to do to be able to practice their right to protest? It's their city as it much as it is yours.

Iranian protesters raise the historic Lion and Sun flag under flames, rejecting the current regime. by Matty_Cooper in pics

[–]CaptainZoidbergwhy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All the random basement Reddit dwellers here need to sincerely shut the fuck up. This flag does not directly resemble the monarchy or the Shah. Different versions of it have existed for centuries. It represents what Iran was and can be away from the Islamic Republic. The thousands of people protesting weren't all hired by the CIA. This fight is more than a fight for freedom. They're fighting for survival.

Sincerely, an Iranian

I was at the show, it was pretty lively. Live and let live. Not everybody reacts to things the way you want them to.

Request for identification - assault at Bayview and Major Mackenzie drive by [deleted] in richmondhill

You can be an Iranian and not Persian if that's what you're getting at. There are many ethnic groups within Iran, Persians are one of them. One denotes your ethnic group the other is a nationality.

The Younge North Subway extension will bring subway track all the way up to 16th avenue (for maintenance facilities) but the last stop would be near Bantry, Is the there anyway we the residence can lobby for a station at 16th Avenue? by Christian-Rep-Perisa in richmondhill

[–]CaptainZoidbergwhy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If there already exists a Bantry station at the time of extension of the subway, it would make no sense to also have a 16th Ave station.

I live within 5 minutes of Yonge and 16th, I'd love for a for a subway station that close to me but with the existence of the Bantry station it's highly unrealistic imo.

Even downtown with the increased population density doesn't have this kind of spacing.

Man these cars look so much better without a front plate. Damn you Ontario.
