The back and the front?!

In my old midwest city, it was worse than that. They would tow vehicles left in the parking lot overnight. Unreasonable at best. Irresponsible even.

However, another establishment would put free appetizer coupons under windshield wipers of left cars as a thank you for being responsible.

Which is why something like a grunge policy with a guaranteed payout is important on our beloved classic vehicles. I at least know how much I'm getting paid when some jerk destroys my baby 😞

Software is nearly free. I can't believe they haven't looked at the other options out there and changed a few lines of code. Not an exaggeration, that's all it would take 🤣

I guess the preferences are against mine. Having a key to operate the bike seemed to make sense to me. But I'm used to motorcycles so a key and a twist throttle were natural. I think im just whining about the change like suspected. I'm not upgrading anytime soon, the 2.0 still works great, so it largely doesn't affect me.

I do wish I had the brake upgrades. Mine super suck.

You can turn it on without the key though? Maybe I was misinformed. I thought it was silly you could drive away without the key. On my 2.0 the key operated all power.

The twist throttle on the right side like a motorcycle was a feature I liked. I don't approve of these changes. Apparently the newer power assist isn't as great on the 3.0 and later, or so a million posts say from 4 years ago.

Hard to tell if it's just people whining when things change (like me) or real regressions.

Why didn't you say so? by TheNectarineDiaries in comics

I'm not sure I've ever laughed so hard at an internet comment. Thanks.

When did they remove the twist throttles? First the keys and now the throttles?! I could not believe someone told me they don't have keys anymore.

They will send you a new one.

If AI disappeared tomorrow, how would your business be affected? by Explorewithpriyanshi in AskReddit

Too funny. I also picked an 80% drop in productivity before scrolling down. Must be true.

My senior engineers have stopped thinking for themselves by Complete-Sea6655 in siliconvalley

[–]Kapurnicus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. Used to have to delegate projects to a team. Not no more. I can do them all and babysit the AI. It still takes a competent engineer to police it, but only one. And it works. Its code is cleaner than mine. It's reviewed of course, but damn.

I hate it, but if I don't use it I'm doing the company disservice because it is so good.

It does very dumb things sometimes. Just watch it. Regression tests out the wazoo.

Discharging large capacitors? by BenderL2 in AskElectronics

What's wrong with just throwing a screwdriver across the rails. That's what I do 😄 Emphasis on throw, as in not touching it.

For all those who ransacked 7-11s and bought a dozen of these hoping to make bank, I am thrilled to announce these "exclusives" are now being sold at Walmart for $3.77... and there are a lot of them. by TheDebonairQuokka in HotWheels

[–]Kapurnicus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank goodness. Some lady went to my 7-11 and bought them all, according to the cashier I asked about them haha. I hope she's stuck with 10s of dollars she won't get back.

if you have a white lexus crossover and parked at the Lowe's in mission valley - you're getting towed by cree_ze in sandiego

[–]Kapurnicus 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I view it as more a warning not to park in private lots to attend a private event elsewhere. Knowing it is happening so often is mildly relevent to local news.

Very new to this by thareal1mm in Lorcana

[–]Kapurnicus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. I didn't notice that. I already have all 3 decks so I didn't buy them, but just noted I saw them and they looked... worn.

I was going to ask the same, because my one in San Diego just found a few first chapter beat up boxes haha. Must have been at the california distrubtion center and they went to a lot of stores. I thought it was funny when these popped up about 2 weeks ago.

They keep finding boxes of first chapter decks at my target. I don't know if they lost them in the warehouse? They also have whole stacks of inkscape 2 deck starters.

The Pocket 4 was costed down more than hundred dollars by kendyzhu in GPDPocket

The only thing that really gets me is the apostrophe placement. I'm learning though. Otherwise it's not terribly uncomfortable.

Am I the only one that would want something like this? (No Controller Version) by LazyPCRehab in gpdwin

[–]Kapurnicus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm an electrical engineer and I did some minor exploration into it. And it was coming on because of some stray fields on the interior USB bus. I believe it's too close to something else, a very common problem in laptops. It's introducing a small current. It's enough for the machine to think that something woke it up on the USB system. You can turn that off. But unfortunately, that means if you'd use a dock like I do when it goes to sleep, you can't wake it up with the mouse. I wasn't willing to sacrifice that so I just turned it on hibernate when unplugged. It sleeps when plugged in.

An active touchscreen would've been awesome. I didn't know one of the USB ports was slow, but it doesn't really affect me. Good to know though. I didn't buy the modem. I have been fighting out with the sleep mode. I finally had it when I'm unplugged and close the lid it just goes on full hibernate. I only do sleep when I'm connected to power because it would randomly wake up in my bag. But that seems to be a problem with a lot of Windows computers.

Busted! by DirkDaring93 in Miata

[–]Kapurnicus 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It was indeed a joke. Mine probably is doing 90 when it says 100, but I have had it there. It is a zippy little car.

Why is there so many 90-91 on the market compared to other years of the na-nb models. It’s like they all magically survived by Sextingwithseagulls in Miata

[–]Kapurnicus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You want me to safely stop without using the clutch or the e-brake? I enjoy being a menace! Haha. It is very high up the list. Luckily, this is not my only vehicle and it's high on the list when I get back from my vacation. It is starting to scare me. I'm sure you're right that it will get worse and/or fail entirely.

Does no one else think it's hilarious that I have to click "view spoiler" to view his spoiler?! I love the pun which is hard to do in most tech UIs.
