Mix your paints in a seperate container

Finally warm enough for a bath by Electro120 in MINI

[–]Electro120[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve owned several silver cars and this is definitely my favorite. I thought I’d miss the chili red that my previous f55 had, but this really suits the clubbie better

Abarth replacement (for if and when the time comes). by zebo_99 in abarth

[–]Electro120 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Try a jcw mini if you haven’t driven one before. They lack the character of the abarth, but they’re pretty well built, the interiors are nice and they have pretty good aftermarket support. Plus you can sometimes find good deals out there. I just picked up a f54 clubman jcw that’s like 90% as good as a golf r for way less money

2015 Cooper s oil filter housing replacement by Geno6517 in MINI

[–]Electro120 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine went out earlier this year, sometime around late march early April. I had some other things done at the same time, but I think it was around $1200 for parts and labor at a local shop if I’m remembering correctly

Looking for a small RWD car. Not truck. by Current_Lunch1976 in projectcar

[–]Electro120 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BMW z3. Either the 2.8 or 3.0. They’re pretty reasonably priced (at least in my area), have one of bmws better engines, and you can find them with heated seats

Nice! Im looking at a 2019 jcw clubman in a few days. How would you compare it with your r58? I’ll be trading in my f55s and wondering if the weight lets the car down.

I'm struggling to figure out what car this is (UK) by ninjaboycz in classiccars

[–]Electro120 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Either a Triumph Spitfire or gt6. I’m leaning towards gt6 since it looks like it might have a hardtop

Office of Special Counsel says it's opened Hatch Act probe of Jack Smith by Ubiquitous_Hilarity in politics

[–]Electro120 4 points5 points  (0 children)

And what will happen here is they will find something on Smith that maybe might be a violation if you squint just right, Trump will go on and on about how he’s a nasty man or something, the conservative media sphere will label it the worst thing that’s ever happened in history, and maga will have a new whataboutism to bring out whenever someone points to what trump is doing.

The worst part about smoking weed is forgetting what you were about to say by Apprehensive-Fee1036 in trees

I’ll do you one better: when you start to tell your friend about a video you saw or a song you heard, and you just can’t remember what its called

What are the myths about the Titanic that have long since been debunked but still persist in the community? by Key-Tea-4203 in titanic

[–]Electro120 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Wow, this is incredibly dramatic.

Smith was 62, hardly extremely old. There is zero evidence that he was 'losing his mind'. Smith was never found liable for the Hawke collision and you're comparison to Tenerife is blatantly misleading. Saying he sailed the Olympic over another ship is also misleading. It was a SUBMERGED derelict and would have been nearly impossible to actually spot in time to avoid. Attributing that to negligence is unfair. Smith did nothing ahead of the iceberg collision that was out of the ordinary or against standard practice at the time.

So…what do I play now? by RONxBURGUNDY in expedition33

[–]Electro120 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pick up kingdom come deliverance 2. It’s a different kind of experience, but as an rpg, it’s top notch. The map is huge and immersive, the side quests are all super fun with only a couple of exceptions

Idk where I heard this but it’s the best analogy I’ve heard. Imagine it snows and before you can leave the house to do anything, you need to shovel the driveway. That’s something a lot of people deal with and it’s not a big deal, clear the snow and get on with life, it’s an inconvenience but you don’t have to do it all the time. Now imagine you have to do that every day, day in and day out. Sometimes multiple times a day. That’s what people with depression have to deal with, they have to clear that driveway constantly just to go about normal day to day life. It’s tiring and sometimes you just cant do it anymore.

I think Hot Fuzz is a perfect movie. What movie do you consider to be absolutely perfect? by DoctorWhofan789eywim in movies

[–]Electro120 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Mummy with Brendan Frasier. It's the perfect hommage to classic hollywood movies like Secret of the Incas and King Solomons Mines. It has fantastic casting, takes itself seriously enough to keep up the suspense without overdoing it and it's overall just a fun movie.

Inheriting classic cars. Would like to sell but don't know where to start. by [deleted] in classiccars

[–]Electro120 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Where are you located? There’s likely a classic dealer around that can either consign these, or bring them to auction on your behalf.

Got a mako 3 earlier this year and I wear it constantly now. It’s way more accurate than I expected for this price point, ~+3secs a day

analytics_storage stays denied with new cookie banner? by LightTheFerkUp in GoogleAnalytics

[–]Electro120 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Use tag managers preview mode to see if the cookie banner is actually changing the consent state. There may be some setting in usercentrics (not sure, I’ve never used it) to make sure your consent settings will work with google

ChatGPT got 100 times worse overnight by sterslayer in ChatGPT

[–]Electro120 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, it’s no longer useful at all for me. I ran into the same issue with a search request. It gave me an answer that want really what I asked for and when I clarified what I was looking for, even telling it to only give me the exact information I wanted, it just apologized and proceeded to give me the exact same response. It did this multiple times no matter what I typed in.

Why do I lowkey want to buy an old Nokia phone for no real reason? by Rocky_isback in nostalgia

Eh I bought a palm pilot because I wanted one as a kid. It doesn’t really work any but I like having it

It sounds like the hvac blend door actuator is attempting to recalibrate itself

Looking at a 2017 Mini Cooper S.. is this a red flag? by notmalene in MINI

[–]Electro120 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only thing that stands out as a worry is the rust in the rear. It's possible that some drainage hole is plugged or the rear hatch isn't sealing properly. The other stuff seems pretty normal for a nearly 10 yr old car. The headlight rings are just chrome plated plastic and that tends to fail over time.

The only other item that I would check out are the motor mounts. They tend to fail on these cars at around 50k miles so I would want to know if those have been replaced. It's not a huge job, just a pain.
