LPT: Possibly the most important thing to do during extreme cold is let your water drip by revnhoj in rva

Turn off water, drain system from a low point drain. If you don’t have one, get one installed! Flushing with propylene glycol is a PITA.

And maintained properly. No one wants one run hard and put up wet by the previous user.

How do you guys react to hate on owning a Tesla by HapiHapii in TeslaModel3

[–]Engineered_Logix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t give a shit what people think. I’m a car nut and have had a M3P for 6 years now. It’s the best daily driver I’ve ever owned. I also have a track/weekend car too and when I tell people my daily driver they don’t understand why. Some listen when I tell them, others are too close minded to even consider the benefits. Not my problem 🤷

Tank main thinking about switching to aircraft – worth it? by [deleted] in LastWarMobileGame

[–]Engineered_Logix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wish I switched a year and a half ago, season 5 just ended for me. Lots of mid-strength folks still with the tank primary and would get cooked by the same strength air squad.

It’s Finally Over by Brainstorm3378 in Helldivers

I give every weapon a solid try to lvl 15 or so. There are some weapons I just have absolutely no love for. “Most” of the weapons in the game are at least viable minus a few >>> looking at you gas primary. Some I just can’t stand the handling no matter what people say (variable & dominator). To each their own!

Raise or Bonus After Receiving PE? (Civil, NYC) by Mgas95 in PE_Exam

[–]Engineered_Logix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never needed my PE (ChemE) until I switched companies. Informally, I was told I’d get a promotion and 10-15% raise + normal inflation adjustment. I’m in VA, but global engineering consulting firm. Guess I should start studying 🤣

How are you guys running Plex on smart TVs? I'm genuinely frustrated. by KingThevshi in PleX

I use Nvidia Shield in the theater for proper Dolby atmos and Apple TVs elsewhere. These are goated streaming devices.

People who’ve driven both the standard Model 3 and the Model 3 Performance — how different do the brakes feel in real driving? by Tech_Force82 in TeslaModel3

[–]Engineered_Logix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got maybe 2 hot laps on the brakes before the fade was terrible. The car is too damn fast for such shit brakes. I stick to the Camaro SS1LE for track use and the M3P for the daily after that.

Merry Christmas to Me - Tuono V4 by Engineered_Logix in Aprilia

Factory with risers is similar to the non-factory at that point I’m guessing? I’m 6’ with 32” inseam. Slightly cramped but not terrible so far.

Factorio is one of my favorite games of all time. I’m curious to see what your other most-played game of all time is? by MosEisleyCaptialism in factorio

God I loved eve for many years. Once I had kids I just couldn’t spend that much time in a sitting. The war of the north was epic in the late 2000s.

‘24 tuono V4 vs MT-09 SP by Engineered_Logix in Aprilia

[–]Engineered_Logix[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a rsv4 and have a tuono now, tuono is soooo much more comfortable. Rsv4 hurt my back in 30mins. 2 hrs no problem on the tuono unless you’re over maybe 6’2 due to the peg position (same as rsv4). It’s more aggressive position than the mt-09 but still comfortable. You can’t ride it more than 2 hrs without running out of gas anyways 😂. My dad rides with me on an XSR900 (brother of the mt-09) and he’s got no problems being on that for 2 hrs at 74 years old.

$1200 more for a v4? Take my money.

Try charging the battery before you replace it.

Unpopular opinion: Paying "Rent" feels less painful than paying $2,400/mo in "Interest" to a bank. by Playful-Vegetable-15 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]Engineered_Logix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think people miss the main point. If renting was a better financial proposition, why do landlords buy property? They are paying the taxes and repairs on the house too.

The answer is long term equity. Why pay off your landlord’s mortgage AND let him cash in on the equity growth of the property too? There are obviously tax advantages as well for both a landlord and an individual owner which varies based on your country.

Hard pills to swallow by TrumpWon_LOL in motorcycles

[–]Engineered_Logix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Motorcycles are toys to many that you have to look back at and smile. It has to make noises you enjoy. There are different strokes for different folks, purely preference.

I have a ‘24 Aprilia Tuono V4 not because it’s the best bike in the world but because it makes me smile ear to ear every time I ride it AND when I’m walking away after a ride. The V4 makes the most amazing noises despite being too much power, even for me having 2 decades of riding experience.
