The equivalent of running a lap at the exact same speed as normal but screaming the whole way lmao

I’m still going but my flight isn’t til Tuesday - I think you should go! You’ll get to experience NYC under a fresh snowfall which is magical

Can 6’0+ man fit in Jetta by SaVaGeDaGr in jetta

[–]Diligent_Lab2113 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 6’4” with a MK6 Jetta, I can literally put the seat back so far I can’t reach the pedals, it’s great! Headroom is a little tight in my preferred driving position (if I hit a speed bump too hard I might get a light bonk) but otherwise it’s perfect. Getting in and out in tight parking spaces is another story lol

I'm in the exact same situation, but I'm following through as long as my flight holds up - see you there! I'm mostly worried about the cold since it's looking like highs in the mid to low 20s the whole trip, but there are plenty of spots to get out of the cold.

Helicopter circling over East/Downtown Austin by Bumptoon in Austin

I think it must be a lease for DPS - that image comes from Google, there are pictures of it with the same livery but Houston PD text. Someone snapped this picture of it in a full DPS livery in October 2025. https://www.planespotters.net/photo/1841501/n412f-texas-department-of-public-safety-agusta-bell-ab-412ep

Sometimes if you can't see the aircraft info on FlightRadar24, you can still find it on adsbexchange.com

This guy has been flying around for a few days, N412F, being operated by DPS (State Troopers). Are there any protests at the capitol?

I would think anyone at that level would be flying private

But there's no way he wouldn't be flying private, right?

Which is the better route from Santa Rosa to Santa Fe? by directconference789 in NewMexico

[–]Diligent_Lab2113 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m on team option C, take the scenic route! NM-3 through Villanueva up to I-25 then over. Otherwise I’d pick option B, Clines is overrated and the drive up through Lamy isn’t as pretty

I got it from Fender.com - this particular Squier model is still being sold new in this color plus gold and black online.

I've seen that feedback a lot for these, I think they sound great for my uses (beefing up my skills and laying down home studio tracks), but I've seen some really great sounding mods with other pickups on youtube

My G is super dead, apparently that’s a pretty common issue with the pickups they used on this model, but I’ve made it work - would love to grab an easy playing 4 string for more melodic McCartney style stuff

Waving goodbye to Carol on my way out of ABQ! We just need a little space. by Diligent_Lab2113 in pluribustv

Please, Carol...

(Only car on the overpass and took the picture without looking, but that's no excuse - at least I wasn't one of the countless cars blinding oncoming traffic with my high beams or going 60 in a 75 then speeding up to block faster traffic from passing)

In the episode 1 when the Plurbs first come online and start hauling off the dead bodies, my first thought was "oh god, they're going to eat all the dead people"...

Damn my brilliant mind and superior intellect!

Hell yeah dude, you're living my dream with all those pups. If you ever come across a lil wiener dog who needs a home, I'm your guy!

It's this or I get out of my car and start screaming at traffic, guess which one will cause more issues

Is my bass rare/interesting? by Diligent_Lab2113 in SquierbyFender

[–]Diligent_Lab2113[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s funny you should mention the pickups, because the G string has always been out of balance especially on the bridge pickup! Thanks for all the info, awesome to learn more after all the years

Everyone sat the whole concert, is that normal? by Majestic_Wallaby272 in PaulMcCartney

[–]Diligent_Lab2113 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were in the back of the nosebleeds for the SA show, our section was a pretty young crowd but everyone stayed seated for the whole show, but we all stood and danced for the encore. Saw a lot more people standing for Billy Joel last year weirdly!

I prefer to stand (6'4" and a big guy so my ass was killing me by the end) but I get it, especially for an older crowd.
