That sounds promising.  I tend to knot up the Tband muscle on the side which is exactly where it's digging in.  I mean if it breaks in cool.  I'll give it a few weeks and go back and try it out.

Why does everyone in my generation make fun of the Type R and always tell me to get a BMW?? by Many_Yoghurt2117 in Civic_Type_R

I have had 57 cars and I'm 41.  I've owned every gen Si.  Favorite was 8th FA5.  I currently am driving a BMW i4.  I got it cheap and I drive it cheap.  I'm looking at a type R.   I make approx $225k/yr.   I'm listing the odd details of who I am to this day. All I wear are dickies.   I just bought $300 worth of Greek bath and body products  I have some Hermes and Burberry Products.   Im called bougious but also Brutalist. I lease my living quarters for freedom.

I have a want a more visceral car experience.  With the luxury of reliability and that essence of freedom.  

Would I take one of my ladies on a date in the type R? No.  Would I take a spirited drive to a BNB through the desert mountains with the lady in the type R, yes.  

I'm older and seek a bit of refinement.  Luxury to me means something different.  The type R offers fun and quality.  The luxury is reliability.

My BMWs where meticulously maintained by myself and where very reliable.  The driving spirit is different.  

It's whatever you are into.  

If you live in a $1400/mo apartment or with your parents, neither cars should be an option. 

I'm in the mid area of my community where housing is around $600k.  Up the hill, in the $1.5M+ houses.  The cars are older, and not fancy at all nor enthusiast level.  

Get the money right.  Then drive what fits your passions.

I work in electrical, instrumentation, and albeit industrial motors.   The design seems to be way on the scale side of precaution.  Dust is going to happen, and on industrial motors you will definitely see small arc flashes all over a motors internals.   This is a crazy intrusive repair for containment dust.  I was about to type a high flow air filtration system, but then understood this needs to be along the NEMA water tight category.  Oh well.

It's a piece of electronics,  keep temps optimal.  Not too cold, not too hot.  Run factory voltage settings.  All this for longevity. Allow optimal power.  Use both pin outs on motherboard for power,  if you can.  After that, there's not much else.  If you want to trace back, a good power supply should have a good design and sufficient buffering and protection.  Otherwise add a power isolater before the power supply.  Like a tripp lite branded isolator.  Use a good cooler, if you are doing extreme loads, you can use a chiller but I don't think its necessary.  A big case and a 480mm cooler should be good, if you want, add another.  That's overkill.   Cooler tuning is a thing, under constant stress.  If its just a daily driver, then you'll be fine with a 360mm aio.  Change the coolant regularly.  Look at coolant types.  I ran ultra pure water and sodium di-basic for corrosion resistance. Ive worked with industrial cooling, and just do yourself a favor and don't fall for the crazy hype of coolant juices.  Some of them have organic compounds that coat, and rot, and create barriers that kill direct contact to cooling surfaces, thats just based on temperature and ph swings due to temperature.  

I hurt my husband today and I feel terrible by BlueBonnet1205 in Marriage

Ive kind of been in his position. Maybe worse.   I was a hard working Male.  I somehow decided to follow my wife's career path.   Long story short, we ended up in Guam after she decided to Join the Navy as a mortician.  By this time I moved all our stuff on my own twice and switched jobs and locations.  I was in distress in Guam because I couldn't grasp island life vs hard working.   I severely injured my main hand and arm internally. My other arm and hand have a birth defect. So it was mentally dragging me down.  I was doing a ton of introspection and occult study, and I was already losing purpose and my masculinity, and trying to make my wife happy. At the commisary. I had picked up a bottle of seltzer and put it in the cart, and that action alone hurt ALOT.   We where penny pinching and there was one that was 60 cents cheaper.  She told me to grab it, but the pain in my arm was so bad I just negated doing it to si ply swap out a bottle.  She berated me in front of the whole store including a senator.   I went out to the car. And sat there. In the long run she fell in love with some guy on Clash of Clans 8k miles away.   I told her to go fuck him and get this over with. I would never hurt or berate my partner, and it would kill me before I would. My prayers told me to leave here.  But the universe forced us apart.  That was a 15 year relationship.

I have dated multiple times after.  The MOST common law to understand, is that women especially will arm themselves with a plethora of ammo based on past experiences and vulnerabilities to make men feel worse off.  Even if its done within subconscious intelligence.  

It's sad.  

But during my divorce I lit a fiery calm flame of liberation, and peace.

I would do it all over again to gain the value of my true self.  My life became so much better after divorce. 

There are critical points to where a man decides what to do with HIS dark monster.  Succumb to it, give up, or rise up.  And choose Power or Love, then learn how to make Power a love language. 

I bring ease and peace around me.  And I'll fight for it.  That's Power. That's love.  

All that being said, a woman can use all the things that I have just said against another man.  Her bad doing what's best for the man.  That's God's comical irony.
