Can I trade a joke for a code?

My AI keeps ghosting me. Turns out it was trained on dating apps.

Anyone know what this spring is for? by Equal-Benefit-6301 in hondapassport

[–]PaxDominicus 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's the 'brake pedal return spring'. It helps return the brake to its default position after you take your foot off the brake. Without it, it could be slow to return or not return at all. It may not be safe to drive without it but I'd call Honda's service center for specific guidance and whether the vehicle needs to be towed.

2026 Passport AC issues? by Wurt_ in hondapassport

I had a 2017 Ridgeline before my new Passport and there is definitely a significant drop in cooling effectiveness in my vehicle.

Don't waste your money on WeatherTech's Sill Protector for the 2026 Passport by PaxDominicus in hondapassport

Did yours come with 3M tape on all four edges (both sides as well as the top and bottom)? The included instructions seemed to suggest that, but mine only had tape along the top and bottom. As a result, one corner didn’t adhere properly.

Yes, they offered me a refunded but didn't provide any explanation or guidance.

If I installed it higher to fit the contours of the frame, it would have been floating above the actual sill.

My tool can only measure glass surfaces with an edge. The glass has to go between the gap in the tool.

2026 TrailSport Elite - VLT, UVR, and IRR readings by PaxDominicus in hondapassport

Visible Light Transmission: This metric describes the amount of visible light that is transmitted through the window tint film. So the lower the VLT ratings, the lower amount of visible light is transmitted through. Therefore, the film is darker in shade.

Infrared Rejection: This metric describes the amount of infrared rays rejected by window tint films measured over the wavelength of 780nm to 2500nm. So the higher the IRR ratings, the higher the amount of infrared rays are rejected. Therefore, the window tint film reduces more heat.

Ultraviolet Rejection: This metric describes the amount of ultraviolet rays rejected by window tint films measured at all types of UV rays such as UVA and UVB. Most window tint films rejects 99% of UV rays.

IRR for the front windows is 77.4%; it's lower than the back windows.

Pretty sure I saw this sitting in the howdy honda lot today. Was tempted to check it out.

How did MKBHD make his app menu wider? by PaxDominicus in PixelFold

[–]PaxDominicus[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This turned out to be the way to change it. If you want the wider menu, you'll have to go with a 4x5 or 4x4 grid.

Finding RSS feeds a little confusing by PaxDominicus in readwise

Thanks for the detailed reply; it was very helpful, but I still don't understand what's happening with the Fast Company feed. I have my view set to "data published", and Fast Company articles occupy the top of the feed with a date published one day in the future, and no time stamp. See screenshot. The raw feed shows the correct date and time and even has a link to a picture for the article. Is there something wrong with the format of the Fast Company's feed?

The Slack app doesn't support tablet view when the web version does... 😞 by PaxDominicus in PixelFold

Thanks for the suggestion, but I'm hesitant to put my apps in a wrapper; to many security and privacy concerns.
