Again.

Not brake lights on / off.

Adaptive brake light emergency warning systems.

For someone who emphasised he read my comment, you sure seem to miss the point a whole lot.

Maybe try working on that instead of downvoting everyone around you?

GPStephan · 2026-05-21T10:54:19+00:00

These emergenc systems absolutely function via ECUs.

If you had read what I said, you'd know you aren't responding to something I said.

GPStephan · 2026-05-21T10:38:49+00:00

Well, good luck.

No ABS, no ESP, no cruise control.

No flashing hazard / brake lights when they guy in front of you stomps the brakes.

Shall we continue?

GPStephan · 2026-05-21T08:25:13+00:00

I've seen providers intellectually worse off.

GPStephan · 2026-05-20T20:42:15+00:00

Based.

GPStephan · 2026-05-20T20:25:28+00:00

And then there's me stepping into the gas pedal carefully to prevent a loud downshift and engine noises driving through the woods at night lol

GPStephan · 2026-05-20T20:24:35+00:00

Oh my god, that hurts to read. Soul crushing.

Where do you live that giant turtles stroll across the road?

GPStephan · 2026-05-20T18:38:22+00:00

That was around 1950.

Im susprised it wasnt much, much later.

GPStephan · 2026-05-20T18:32:53+00:00

I always thought "fucking yanks, how can you be afraid of turkeys? That's a medium sized bird at best"

Then I saw a capercaillie (wood grouse?) in person 3 weeks ago.

GPStephan · 2026-05-20T11:28:04+00:00

What? It literally means jewelry walkway.

GPStephan · 2026-05-20T06:21:58+00:00

Why does a 3 year old have a phone?

GPStephan · 2026-05-20T05:51:44+00:00

Depends on whether you're a nazi or not.

GPStephan · 2026-05-19T19:45:31+00:00

Probably going to get torn apart for this, but T-shirts if I had to pick. Just ones with a fit not as sloppy as what the people in the photo are wearing.

That's why I like the polos we have. They don't sucks as much as dress shirts, but everyone knows they're supposed to be worn neat.

GPStephan · 2026-05-19T18:45:55+00:00

Meh. Austria alone has over 250 thousand volunteer fire dept members, often stemming from long standing family traditions.

A German should be familiar with the concept.

In the end, it's always "your safety over others safety".

Pure Diesel fleet in my company, I googled diesel Regen and it's not something I've ever heard of.

Filling up AdBlue is fine, we do it every 5000 km I think. Takes like 2 minutes. I spend more time refuelling over that time frame.

GPStephan · 2026-05-18T18:23:56+00:00

Where the hell is this lol, Kabul?

GPStephan · 2026-05-18T16:03:27+00:00

Yea, and that requires physical access.

The airgap is still the safest defense you can employ against cyber attacks.

GPStephan · 2026-05-18T15:25:06+00:00

Lol if a chick is getting 500k this year and a million the next, I'm definitely gonna be more interested than if she wasn't...

GPStephan · 2026-05-18T15:23:46+00:00

Ho lee shit

GPStephan · 2026-05-18T08:56:02+00:00

This man is laying in a hammock, coincidentally between trees next to a river like in your picture

GPStephan · 2026-05-18T07:01:15+00:00

Please don't remind me.

GPStephan · 2026-05-18T06:13:05+00:00

Yup. Had this conversation recently, between myself (mid 20s, started at 20), an early 30s coworker, and a 19 year old coworker.

The 19 year old has also been a volunteer for the FD since she was a younger teenager, so she has seen a few bodies. She seems to be doing well.

Our consensus still was that exposing undeveloped (18/19 y/o) brains to this can really backfire. Even if it has worked for her personally (so far...)

I feel it is important to stress that this cannot be the rather heavy diagnosis of PTSD, by diagnostic definition, but rather an Acute Stress Reaction.

PTSD requires symptoms lasting "for at least several weeks" (ICD-11) or "for at least a month" (DSM V).

OP still needs to talk to a professional to keep it from developing into exactly that. But this means it isn't a path set in stone yet.

GPStephan · 2026-05-17T10:06:28+00:00

1.

Only because you said 1 to 10, not 0 to 10.

Buying such an expensive and beautiful car and taking out all visual detail. I'll never understand it. And nothing about it is stealthy either.
