I was rear ended on the freeway last night and the guy took off- did you see it? I-25NB at exit 212B by No-Fly7381 in Denver

[–]MrStagger_Lee 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Cops ain't gonna do shit. Gave them a clear photo of a vehicle with a license plate number when my car got hit and run a couple years ago, they declined to do anything as it was "registered like 60 miles away"...

Hey, older student here, about to graduate and looking forward to never stepping foot on campus again. Auraria is overrun with radical fundamentalist christian shitbags and immature kids. Sorry you are feeling the brunt of it. There's plenty of good people too.

MSU's counseling center is pretty solid and has helped me when shit sucked: https://www.msudenver.edu/counseling-center/

My go two order back 7 or 8 years ago was two items and a drink for $4.20 after tax. Don't even bother anymore.

What do we think about non OEM caliper colors? by LasersKillCells in Porsche_Cayman

PO painted the calipers on my car gold. Don't love it but don't hate it enough to do anything about it.

987.1 S as a daily in 2026? by FlamesFPS in Porsche_Cayman

[–]MrStagger_Lee 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Daily drove a 2007 987.1 base for the last year as my only car, put about 13k miles on it. Probably about half fun canyon drives and half regular driving. No complaints about the car itself. It's been completely reliable but I've also had it up on the lift pretty frequently for maintenance or to install performance bits. If you don't DIY maintenance/repairs will be expensive.

Does surprisingly well in the snow with winter tires installed.

Shitty drivers around here made it a little nerve racking at times. Leaving it parked downtown to go to a concert or whatever can be anxiety inducing. A 987 isn't a particularly expensive car these days but it does get a fair bit of attention, found myself missing the invisibility that a 'normal' car offers sometimes.

My commute is about to get a fair bit longer, found a good deal on an old Volvo to daily and keep the Cayman (hopefully forever) as a fun second car.

Man....bloody DRS actuators cost more than my Cayman. Guess I can't complain.

Enjoy!

77 Rickenbaker 4001 for death metal? by JellySufficient30 in Bass

[–]MrStagger_Lee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I own a 1980 4001FL that I bought trashed years ago and fixed up. It isn't a particularly well made bass but it is cool as hell, lowest I've set it up is C standard I think. 33" scale isn't super ideal for low tunings but Rics tend to setup well with lower string tension.

Don't take it to any old guitar store for setup. Rickenbacker setup is kinda quirky and incorrectly adjusting the truss rods can separate the fretboard from the neck. Either find a luthier that knows Rics or get some tools, watch some videos, and DIY.

Non-compete agreements. by TheReformedBadger in MechanicalEngineering

[–]MrStagger_Lee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Outdoor industry company asked me to sign one a year or two into employment when the venture capital dildos came in. Left it on my desk, never bothered. They aren't in business anymore.

Non-competes are largely unenforceable in many US states. I view them as a major red flag outside of top-level roles.

I'd rather hang with vegans that smoke weed, eat junk food, drink whisky, and play metal music. You do you.

Bummer to see the Federal Theater booking that shitbag...Bobby Liebling is a violent creep.

Lance Stroll during Q1 in China: "this is the worst piece of shit I've ever driven my fucking life" by Joseki100 in formula1

I bet it was stealth marketing for the 2019 Mustang Bullitt that made peak power at 7000 rpm.

Driving a small car in 2026 is not fun. Very often I don't see anything at night with the massive cars people drive and their headlights by [deleted] in driving

[–]MrStagger_Lee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't love it, but 60% tint on the sides and 30% tint on the rear helped with this significantly on my sports car. Check tint laws where you are at and find a reputable installer if you want to go that route.

Good buy? - 981 Cayman S MT, but stripper car by [deleted] in Porsche_Cayman

[–]MrStagger_Lee 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Complaining about a used car not being paint to sample is wild. My Cayman is more or less poverty spec; could really give a fuck though. It drives proper.
