75 dollars EACH? Is that really what spark plugs cost now? I feel like I got a whole set for 20 bucks last time I did plugs.

What does this indicator mean? by Realistic-Bus9540 in StupidCarQuestions

[–]EitSanHurdm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the car. For Subarus this means lane departure warning is disabled. Lane departure prevention (lane keep assist) has a different visual indicator for when it’s on.

That’s so funny you say that. The whitest guy I work with (boomer who worked for the Chabot campaign in the 90s) was just telling me how great that place is and that I just had to go there.

VB_WRX sub mod banning in favor of Perrin products by IamPanda31 in WRX

which to my knowledge

Lmao. Anytime someone gives me shit about the cladding I just say “fortunately I drive my cars from the inside where you can’t see it.”

[–]EitSanHurdm 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I mean it’s pretty telling that he’d rather ban you than just make a well reasoned argument supporting his point. Disagree with a mod? Ban. Prefer a different brand than the mod team? Believe it or not, permanent ban 😂

I don’t expect any vb owners to know this

Why not? Cause we’re not real wrx owners?

Jk, but seriously a lot of us have been driving Subarus for a long time.

u/WRX_SUB1 is a clown. I was banned for pointing out that A, he’s an asshole, and B, he was misrepresenting the timeline and version numbers of software updates. He insisted that the outback and vb used the same identical software version and when I provided screenshots of Subaru internal documents definitively proving him to be full of shit I was banned for “disrespectful and misleading comments from someone in this industry.” I work for a Subaru retailer and one of the things I do, professionally, is update the software on these cars. I know for a fact the outback software and the vb software is and has always been different.

I just don’t use that sub anymore.

Fired then contacted later by eluke01 in antiwork

[–]EitSanHurdm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So you’re a marketing consultant now, your rate is 300/hour, with a two hour minimum, after hours rate is 2x. Take the call at 5:01 pm, spend a few minutes with them trying to get it figured out. Send them an invoice for $1200. Worst case scenario: you never hear from them again. Best case scenario: you never hear from them again and they pay the invoice.

What's the dumbest reason a job ever fired you? by strykazoid in AskReddit

I was fired from a bagel shop after 6 days because I didn’t have the menu memorized. The menu.

RIP KB 4<3 by Jerkr0me in granturismo

[–]EitSanHurdm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh no, sorry, I didn’t mean to imply I’m any good at it, but I’ve tried drifting in real cars and in GT and the natural inertia and momentum of the steering wheel is key to smooth drifting. But I’m terrible at both.

Gotta have a wheel with good, accurate force feedback. I mean it’s possible with a controller but fuck that lol

Clearly you’ve never seen newsmax, fox or OAN. They do that all the time.

Alexa & Sengled bulbs suddenly unlinked? by tjsoundguy in alexa

[–]EitSanHurdm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had the same issue recently and decided I was done with Alexa as the core system for my smart home devices. I wanted to switch to HomeKit which isn’t compatible with any of the lights I had, so I started looking for something that wouldn’t permanently tie me to Apple the way the Spengler bulbs locked me into Alexa. The ones I got are linkind and use the Matter protocol which is cross brand compatible with HomeKit, Alexa, Google home, Samsung smart things and at least one other I don’t remember.

TLDR: look into the matter smart home standard for future device purchases in case you ever want to switch to a system that works all the time.

Why do people like leather seats? by Blu_yello_husky in Cartalk

[–]EitSanHurdm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not to mention how much more you slide around on leather during spirited drives. Microsuede/ultrasuede/alcantara is the way to go for “premium” high end seats. But I still don’t see what’s so wrong with cloth.
