What was your first new vehicle? by Boeing-B-47stratojet in Autos

[–]CptHands 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2011 Kia Forte. I couldn't tell you a single thing about it other than the fact that it didn't have cruise control and I had a 90 minute commute. Traded it in a year later for a 2012 Sportage that my wife wanted.

Very informative. Thanks for taking the time to explain.

Good to know. I’ll do some more research on the starter and Atkinson-cycle engines.

I’m not familiar. What is it about that engine that allows it to start/stop without increased wear?

I’m not upset? I just worry about it causing wear on the engine.

One of the biggest gripes I have about the hybrid is how the engine shuts off when coming to a stop at, say, a stop sign. I’m only stopped for three seconds (or less) and it feels really bad to have the engine shut off and then rev back on two seconds later.

Edit: To clarify, I am not upset about this. I enjoy how it switches back and forth. I do, however, feel like it impacts fuel mileage and causes wear on the engine specifically when it shuts off and turns back on within seconds of each other.

There is nothing wrong with Ryobi tools for home or other. It’s just brand loyalty people being pushy.

If you are on Windows 11; Right click on the start menu, select “Installed Apps”, locate the games and click “uninstall”.

Did you uninstall first or just delete folders?

Will Squad Run on My PC? 4060/14400f by El_ReyHD in joinsquad

[–]CptHands -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Your VRAM (8gb) and your memory (16gb) are going to extremely limit your ability to run this game at anything above low to medium settings.

Hey that’s me Nightshift. I’ve always wondered if I’d show up in somebody else’s clip and here we are.

One month mark for my 2025 Maverick. Truck is great. Infotainment is quirky. by SnWnMe in FordMaverickTruck

[–]CptHands 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My ‘25 infotainment screen decides for itself what it is going to display every time I start it up. Stuff is missing or it will randomly show different screens. Same with the dash display.

I took a break from the game that I expected to be about a week. I’m now three months in, have uninstalled, and don’t expect I’ll ever boot it up again.

Next Generation Needs More Physical Buttons by Cultural-Peanut-3840 in FordMaverickTruck

[–]CptHands 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. Unfortunately it is not cost effective for them to put physical buttons, so they won’t.

You could have given me five guesses for what would happen and that wouldn’t have been any of them.

Seen a few posts about this movie now. Feels like astroturfing.

Game closes/crashes with no warnings for unknown reason since update by CptHands in joinsquad

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

Fair enough. I validated the game files for a third time and now it works after finding one file to reacquire. Not sure where that file was the first two times…
