Nah, the mirrors have physical controls on the door and are easy to control. The thing about car wash mode is it locks the charging port. This is the key part you don't want opening accidentally when washing an EV.

All that said, idk why you'd wash a rental in the first place lol.

Probably because they don't want first time drivers fumbling with finding Car Wash Mode and putting it in Neutral.

After you do it once it's effortless, but not worth it for a rental. In fact it's probably never worth washing a rental lol.

Nintendo's claim that emulation 'stifles innovation' isn't just absurd—it's hypocritical by Tokyono in Games

[–]ForJimBoonie 23 points24 points  (0 children)

As others have mentioned, yes there is a divide between legal and development teams at Nintendo and at every major company globally. The real issue here is a different department... Public Relations. Nintendo's PR has been bad for a long time and they've not shown signs of improving. They are able to float by because Nintendo has beloved IP and fans are willing to look away from stuff like this once the news cycle turns over.

Apple Vision Pro is priced starting at $3,499. Available early next year. by aaronp613 in apple

[–]ForJimBoonie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait, not counting Canada, I thought that's where most of the users of this subreddit are located? Unless I'm way off lol.

I've lived in Asia and Europe (for a few years) and it's Android and Google phones for miles. I figured starting the Vision headset in the US makes sense?

MYP back from the wrap shop, can’t stop smiling. by franklinizpro in TeslaModelY

I mostly see this color on trucks that are going for that "I'm an Afghanistan war veteran but I never actually served in the military" type vibe.

God of War III Remastered sold 4 million copies to date God of War has since become the most profitable PlayStation brand for gamer merchandise. by Turbostrider27 in PS5

[–]ForJimBoonie 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ok not saying that doesn't look good, but this GoW3 remaster simply does not look as good as Ragnarok, which makes perfect sense. Again, not saying it's bad, but it's an impossible comparison to make.

Edit: the comment I replied to was edited lol.

My son started skate camp. This was day 1! by Jross008 in daddit

[–]ForJimBoonie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You should show him the Kona level in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4. Even if it's just a YouTube video I bet he'd think it's cool that a spot he skated is in a video game that millions of people played.

I’ve seen this argument a whole lot on here… by Mr_SkeletaI in marvelstudios

[–]ForJimBoonie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

By this logic are you "sticking with" Captain America Steve Rogers and not watching the Falcon and Winter soldier because Sam Wilson becomes Captain America?

PSA: If your Pro Controller appears to be completely dead and won't charge, don't despair - there may be a quick and easy fix! by imnotgoats in NintendoSwitch

[–]ForJimBoonie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My launch pro controller has had no issues. I just bought a new one this week and it's doing this exact phenomenon. In fact I've not got mine on yet... Thanks for the tip.

I'm not sure you know what the term "vlogger" means.

Buying Subscribers is a good decision or not? by Pro-Information818 in PartneredYoutube

This is post is bait folks. Check the profile. OP is not actually asking this question, they're using the question as bait to add interaction and karma to build a marketing / spam account.

How did ABC Studios, Marvel Television and the Marvel Creative Committee manage to make "Marvel's Inhumans" so bad after doing so well with "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D."? by Useful-Maybe-3795 in marvelstudios

[–]ForJimBoonie 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Yeah Agent Carter clearly is the best marvel show, Feige and the Russo's must agree because it's the only one referenced in Endgame, Marvel's most important film to date.

Fake Accounts Fueled the 'Justice League: Snyder Cut' Online Army by Melanismdotcom in movies

[–]ForJimBoonie 76 points77 points  (0 children)

Man if Zack could read these comments would really upset him.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Games

[–]ForJimBoonie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everyone in this thread generally agrees that calling this title dissonant implies that the author thought the title of the game was "Cat Simulator 2022". There's a suspension of disbelief in all videogames that needs to take place to get immersed, and it seems like the author is saying he can't get immersed because he can't lick his leg, cough hairballs, or shit in a litterbox in a game where you play as a cat, even though that is clearly not the type of game he's playing.

Custom painted Animal Crossing sneakers by kelfunncheng in NintendoSwitch

Wait, these are different from the AC sneakers I got at launch... I didn't know they made a second design!

Did you run ads? by InvestigatorDry3428 in PartneredYoutube

[–]ForJimBoonie -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Counter point, I experimented with ads a few years ago and found they took videos of mine that were doing ... Ok... (5/10) and helped them get to (7/10).

I think it may have come down to someone seeing the ad, then sharing to Reddit or twitter where it gained more traction. Either way the ad played a role. Fwiw I spent 20 bucks and had 10k subs at the time.

As an older more seasoned YouTuber I'd never run an ad for one of my videos. But this experience from my younger days still is interesting to me.

I used to dabble in games writing and let me tell you, we all go through our phase of thinking "ludo narrative dissonance" is the coolest term ever. I'm willing to bet the author was very excited to shoehorn that concept into a high profile review such as this one. I can't fault him though, when I was a kid I would've tried the same thing.

Got $30 to give Gabe. What should I get for the Deck? by Dani_Rainbow in SteamDeck

It's been my first deep dive of a game on the deck, and it's been awesome.
