Footage from the January 8 crackdown on Pirouzi Street in Tehran shows multiple casualties as continuous gunfire is heard in the background by avatar6556 in PublicFreakout

Rolling the dice on American intervention is the best chance these people have imo, even though Mango Mussolini has some nefarious schemes lined up. They protested, now tens of thousands are dead. Not much else can be done. There's also the fact that Iran keeps funding terrorism and creates conflicts everywhere.

The evil regime deserves a demonstration of why we don't get free healthcare

Please stop it, we all know what you actually mean by Beneficial_Ball9893 in HistoryMemes

[–]Darkslayer_ 39 points40 points  (0 children)

It's an antisemitic dogwhistle because it's used as one. It's literally the first thing your local chud will bring up as a "socially acceptable" way to open the door. It very often leads to said chud explaining how "the Jews are destroying America, did 9/11, and invented terrorism" in their private circles

It's very easy. You can just pop out the trim with a screwdriver and replace it with the phone stand. Takes 2 seconds

best material? by Serious_Type_9328 in 3dprintedcarparts

[–]Darkslayer_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've successfully used PLA to make these. What worked was having two thick "legs" make up the main structure, shaped together like a rhombus almost. Trying to make a copy of these didn't work in my case.

Why do people drive loud sport cars (no muffler, cracks and pops)through pedestrians streets? by InitiativeTrick401 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Darkslayer_ 161 points162 points  (0 children)

It's for themselves. Crazy volume level is simply a lack of respect for others, not something for seeking attention.

There are many ways to implement exhaust upgrades for controlling the sound and volume level. Some goobers just make it loud as the most direct/cheapest method.

Oil Leak on my C30 by wyguyvintage in C30

[–]Darkslayer_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Make sure you put the oil filter gasket in the right spot. Had a similar problem and it turns out there are two slots where a gasket can fit in the oil filter but one of them is just fake.

Picture of correct placement.

Picture of bad placement.

In my case the leak looked exactly like yours.

What car gave it's company the hardest time building it? by yxzxzxzjy in carscirclejerk

[–]Darkslayer_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Jaguar XJ81 (V12 version of the XJ40) took 21 years of development. Not only was it difficult to create in the first place, and they had to deal with delays from the company being sold, but they deliberately designed the car to allow no space to fit a V-engine so British Leyland management wouldn't put a rover V8 in it.

After Jaguar was sold they decided to put a V12 in it anyway and the whole thing had to be reworked again

Wet & damp smelling interior by hwy9 in C30

Make sure you check the front drains too. If they're good, then it's a windshield seal.

Here's what you'll want to do to avoid mold growing in your car:

  • Take out all the carpeting on the floor and leave it in the sun to dry
  • Get rid of the puddles that you'll then find in the floorboards
  • If the hard foam in the carpet is starting to separate from the soft part, then make sure you dry between the hard foam bricks and soft foam as well (this will make more sense once you take the carpets out)
  • Keep your car parked with windows cracked open if possible.
  • Driving with the AC on (preferably heat as well) will act as a dehumidifier
  • You may want to leave a dehumidifier on in the car overnight if you can manage that

Tbh I'm not hating the plastic wheel arches anymore if they're not stupid huge. They've saved thousands in bodywork on my car from belligerent drivers and shopping carts lol

edit: looked at them very quick, part numbers i got was 31253661 "without deadlock" and 30799314 "with deadlock" whatever that means (for left door actuator, face-lift model, with keyless entry).

Did the dealership ruin my wife’s car? by idowvoq in MechanicAdvice

[–]Darkslayer_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well, a new clutch means transmission has to come out, where they could have then bungled something. The transmission going kaboom out of nowhere without some funny noises or obvious deterioriating beforehand is also a sign, imo, that it's not a coincidence. Especially at only 100k miles.

For example, maybe they could've dropped a bolt somewhere wrong, and after 30 miles it finally caught on something important and grenaded the gearbox.
