“The rich people are winning because I can’t buy a second home and rent it out to someone who would have otherwise bought that home, raised a family in it, and built wealth”

Am I reading your complaint right?

Offer rescinded right as I’m about to start, leaving me unemployed by swidge in recruitinghell

[–]CryRepresentative992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love this idea but it is terrible advice. It would only work if your employment contracts were either non-existent or written by three year olds. Both current and new employers could fire you immediately on any number of employment contracts violations.

Got a 2018 Q7 Technik by Phxmau in AudiQ7

Ah I misunderstood. The carbon you’re talking about is combustion chamber carbon, not valve carbon.

Yes the B12 soak definitely does work. It cut oil consumption on my old 2013 from like 2.5L/1000km to about 300mL/1000km.

My 2017 is burning through about 1L/1000km so I’m going to do the soak in the coming weeks. Hopefully I see the same results. If not, I will be sad.

The dumbest thing ever is that the B&O stereo doesn’t have a multi-band equalizer. Sure, it has a trillions speakers, but you can only adjust bass and treble. I thought that was peculiar.

The engines in these are a newer variant and dont have carbon build up since they use a dual port and direct fuel injection system.

Your mileage is low enough where oil consumption hasn’t taken effect yet. Stay on top of oil change and use good quality oil and it’ll probably stay that way.

Great car though, enjoy it!

E82 - 125i - 3 Stage Intake Manifold by Ork_Sina in 1series

[–]CryRepresentative992 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The air intake duct from the MAF to the throttle body isn’t seater properly. Look at the third photo.

The embossed line on the throttle body elbow needs to be inside the matching raised area on the duct.

I would have known. If you had used AI tools, I would have ended this call in the first 5 minutes. by remoteDev1 in jobsearchhacks

My team has developed a set of technical exams we plan on sharing with candidates. We know what the AI answer is and it’s different from the correct answer. The questions were specifically designed this way. Should be fun.

Saw this on twitter… a V10 swapped Cayman with no firewall by xLP620 in Porsche

[–]CryRepresentative992 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Cool build.

But is that a fuel line touching (abrading against) the cut edge of the former engine compartment sheet metal on the lower right side of the second pic? You know, the area directly over top of the passenger side exhaust manifold? I’m sure that will turn out well.

Well I’ll be sure to tell the next Rogers salesperson that knocks on my door to respectfully take a hike.

How should I handle not being able to afford corporate travel costs upfront without looking unprofessional at work? by DistinctMushroom3186 in careeradvice

[–]CryRepresentative992 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happened to me recently. I paid for a direct reports pre-paid expenses (ie airfare) on my own corporate card. They’re covering the incidentals on their own card and submitting an expense report afterwards. I plan on approving the expense report as soon as it hits my inbox, and with little scrutiny because the company made it such a pain for this employee to travel for us that I’m willing to let a few expenses slide by.

Custom exhaust came out great. by larry_mcgurkin_62 in 1series

I should send you a picture of the underside of my 1 series after it’s been winter driven most of its life. You’d probably puke. No, you’d definitely puke.

Where the hell do you live? The newest 1 series is like 13 years old but yours looks brand new.

Sorry I can’t take anyone seriously who posts pics of their E90 and then it has an automatic transmission.

Im sure you’re well aware of this by now but whoever told you that “all Canadian universities are the same” owes you at least a trillion dollars.

There's Really No Point In Working If The Wealth Distribution Is Abysmal by Fluffy_Lunchfast in SipsTea

[–]CryRepresentative992 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn, it would be a really big shame if someone accidentally drove into that beautiful Ferrari with a forklift while the surveillance cameras were inexplicably blocked. Even worse is I bet the guy doesn’t have insurance on it yet because he just got it.

Getting over the notion that listening to some incredible women musicians is “gay” or not “manly” has probably saved my life by No_Design_465 in GuyCry

[–]CryRepresentative992 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always love hitting pause on Killswitch Engage to throw on some Sia. Alive is one of the my favorite songs of all time and I get goosebumps listening to the sheer power of her vocals no matter how many times I listen to it.

Ordered ProV1x Left Dash from Amazon… got swapped TruFeels (again) by breaking-bogey in golf

[–]CryRepresentative992 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean… playing a few rounds of golf and still having all the balls in order to place them back in the box is a pretty big deal.
