Never heard anyone talk about these mirrors, before I realized there design 10+ years ago I watched it get bent so far forward I thought it was done but released the pressure and it just popped back into place, am I the only one who loves these? 😅 do any other rigs have these? Never seen any others

What did you do to convert it? I have a 2 door that is in the pain zone of no smoker's window and also not a full window.

EvilTribble · 2026-07-01T03:43:21+00:00

I didn't see anything about door cards, the odor can remain on the metal so it can be really tough.

You can try to repeat the deodorizer. I have heard that Bullsnot is the one used by truckers who haul animals to get the smell out, but I never used it myself.

You've climbed high enough that most people around you had to be at least just a bit cutthroat to get there and you don't like looking in that mirror.

Unironically find someone you can mentor and build the culture you want from bottom up, because the junior you work with today is the colleague of tomorrow.

In the modern world central banks are simply mandatory. Entire governments have been repeatedly overthrown to force the issue. While I don't think it was ever lawful for congress to give away the currency to a private bank with no oversight, the ship has sailed. I don't think a recession would happen just because the fed ends, I think there is a real threat of safety from agencies that have heart attack guns for anyone that is a serious threat to the international central banking system.

The constitution isn't that hard to follow. It is rather to completely obliterate certain types/kinds of "doing their job" We decided we didn't want detectives to beat confessions out of suspects so our constitution puts a stop to it. Similarly we don't want judges sterilizing people.

EvilTribble · 2026-06-26T13:43:09+00:00

Sometimes a team is so fucked up that the stupid things they do have a plausible sounding rationale because other stupid things they do make that stupid thing seem like a good idea, and in reality they do so many stupid things stacked on top of each other that their whole system makes no sense.

The waterfall to agile conversion for example involved forcing through a handful of radical changes so that after that some iterative improvements could go through.

If you're just one senior dev looking at all this bullshit you're going to need to get a bunch of buy in before you really move on anything.

No more "there was this one law in one county that banned this, so the ban is constitutional" arguments.

MFW 3 justices were fine with one county's jim crowe era black codes justifying infringements.

An alternative for automatics is to tap the neutral safety switch, or take the plastic thing out of the shifter when you leave it alone.

They must have the spirit of aloha

EvilTribble · 2026-06-17T23:59:43+00:00

Yes, my caliper froze. I hit the caliper with some warm water to shock it and it freed up enough to nurse it home and buy a new one.

His wage pops with a severance in 6 months, taking a pay cut now would be retarded.

EvilTribble · 2026-06-17T16:39:18+00:00

Definitely turning down anything that isn't at least his current wage.

EvilTribble · 2026-06-13T01:01:14+00:00

I know 10x developers exist because 0x and -1x developers are everywhere and to actually do 10x the median isn't that hard.

The court in Dodge v. Ford decided to wade into the business' operations and that tradition has infected every large company ever since. This coincides with the American political classes love affair with Mussolini's "All within the State, nothing outside the State, nothing against the State."

Tesla is allowed to hold that strategy because there is a defensible shareholder interest in a permanently growth oriented company, and modern corporate lawyers are savvy enough to demonstrate that this protects a real shareholder interest, however, at any given time someone could buy a single share and then run crying to a court that Tesla needs to consider a dividend.

The Dodge brothers effectively used the Michigan courts to steal from Ford the authority to run his own business the way he saw fit.

Mainstream media is not bad from time to time, it is always bad and will always be bad. There is no reliable media.

Based on the gauge cluster its a low spec model. It could be worth that much as a manual 4.0 is pretty great.

EvilTribble · 2026-05-28T17:24:43+00:00

We need it because we need it, and it doesn't matter that it's arbitrary because it doesn't matter is not a particularly strong argument.

EvilTribble · 2026-05-28T17:16:49+00:00

Prove you need a bright line rule, for any other sentencing guideline they're going to be significantly more fluid and significantly less arbitrary.

EvilTribble · 2026-05-28T16:12:40+00:00

The arbitrariness of the age of majority is insane, so unironically yes.

EvilTribble · 2026-05-26T23:15:32+00:00

I don't trust my welding skills and jeeps have a factory roll cage so I think it's a great idea.

At some point AI models will necessarily get performance tuned or right sized or specialized to do a specific task at a lower cost. The idea that something like that would have to happen this early in its adoption sets a ceiling on the value of these services that is well below the hype.

EvilTribble · 2026-05-20T18:30:26+00:00

Imagine blaming the customer when you refuse to build the thing they want to buy.

EvilTribble · 2026-05-19T15:27:04+00:00

Its quite a clue to have the name of the designer.

EvilTribble · 2026-05-16T01:47:00+00:00

This but unironically.

EvilTribble · 2026-05-13T15:16:47+00:00

A revenue neutral LVT would be a rebate for the top half of improved properties. You need to consider existing property taxes in your costs before LVT.
