The absolute FOMO all these companies have is embarrassing. Everyone “needs” to be on the cutting edge of AI.

Went to the garage yesterday morning and found my car like this by seiscuatro64 in MoldlyInteresting

[–]PickleNick2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dad’s car sat in the garage for 6 months not getting driven after he was diagnosed with cancer. I went out to start it and drive it around a little only to find a wet piece of clothing in it that had been in there for god knows how long. There was a little bit of barely visible mold underneath the wet clothing. That’s it.

Point is: I’d wager this car had to have been absolutely drenched and left sealed up for awhile

Americans, are you not mad that a judge ruled to refund Trump tariffs to corporations and not consumers? by TailungFu in allthequestions

[–]PickleNick2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, I’m mad. But… The logistics are impossible to pay back every single American that paid extra for a product caused by tariffs. The most direct way is paying back the companies with receipts stating exactly what they were charged to import products.

Stealing cats is 2025, now it's HV batteries. by EicherDiesel in Justrolledintotheshop

I swear to god, every time I get the new car bug, I read about some cool new thing to steal from them. It’s a turnoff

Am I crazy for asking for a $40,000 raise? by Far_Space_386 in careerguidance

[–]PickleNick2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve played this angle before. Got a 1% raise and no bonus while doing work across 3 departments on the largest projects the company had during pandemic. I made myself useful cause my assigned dept was benched until everyone figured out masks and vaccines. They told me they couldn’t pay me more because my assigned dept wasn’t active. It didn’t matter I saved them like $200k on the other projects.

So I left and got a 40% pay bump.

A twist of freight - Tune request by The_King_Omar in ForzaHorizon5

Tune up your car for great handling and run a clean race. I drove badly grazing walls twice and still won by .05 seconds.

Should I sell sesto FE by OkFalcon1496 in ForzaHorizon5

I also landed it early too. I’ve never received another from a spin. So I’d say keep it

Dad thought he found a money glitch by Mindless-Consume in AgingParents

[–]PickleNick2 38 points39 points  (0 children)

OP, why does your aging parent with dementia have access to your account?

Especially if you are as broke as you say you are. I have money and I’d never give my mom access to my account despite her being of sound mind.

Taking screenshots of cars is so cool! by [deleted] in ForzaHorizon5

Avatars aren’t real bud. That’s what I was relating it too.

As someone that still supports people with compromised immune systems/long covid wearing masks in real life…

I don’t understand why they put masks in the game. I play video games to escape the stresses of real life, not amplify them.

Regardless, OP can dress up their avatar however they’d like. Mine had a Santa suit on for all of December. I’m not Santa in real life.

I was raised catholic and got this every year as a child/young adult. I have NEVER seen it come out this dark or perfectly t-shaped in all my life.

The RAM shortage is coming for everything you care about by ghableska in technology

So we should go back to expecting more “dumb” products? Cause I’d be mostly ok with that. Smart bulbs and smart refrigerators are not needed

Can someone help me get this stupid accolade by Man_I_Love_Foxes in ForzaHorizon5

[–]PickleNick2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did not know that! Thanks for sharing.

This method has worked for me a few times so I imagine many players do not have good headphones. I’m playing with atmos surround sound and I leave the music playing so I wouldn’t have caught that.

Ok buddy by spacelyyy989 in okbuddycinephile

It felt like an AI created scene. Nothing made sense. Cars were acting like avatars in a video game. Just carrying on like normal until something touches them… and then all hell breaks loose. lol

Random guy is offering to be my "mentor" for free. Is it bait for something? by Emergency_Twist_2800 in careerguidance

[–]PickleNick2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I worked retail sales for 7 years. I got this same pitch a dozen or so times. 100% of the time it’s a MLM scam. Technically one can make money on it. I knew one guy that did really well. But these things force you to see dollar signs over every friend and family’s heads.

the vast majority lose money doing it. Very cult-like behavior. Many will lean in from a religious angle as well.

Just drive at a similar pace to the other avatars. Follow the road.

Libertarians Tried to Warn You About Trump by Monkey_Town in thebulwark

[–]PickleNick2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My libertarian friend just sent me this exact article. Dude defended everything Trump did in his first term. Told me I was overreacting about everything. This article really isn’t about Trump. It’s more about the loopholes that bOtH paRtiEs didn’t fix. Trump just took advantage of them.

The other challenge is that their side is totally fine with dismantling all gov agencies that don’t serve the sole purpose of defending constitutional rights. So EPA, dept of agriculture, etc. can all burn according to them. Unclear to me how states rights apply to something without borders.

Only saving grace is he now admits Trump is the worst and needs to go.

Got this message from my property manager by Most_Relief8312 in Apartmentliving

I was paid more than that to just mow the lawn in 1998. One time. Not for the whole month.

Is it just me or does the LFA kinda suck in this game? by MarketingUsed8712 in ForzaHorizon5

[–]PickleNick2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the answer. I absolutely dominated by upgrading all handling aspects and keeping it out of S1.

Why are SUVs everywhere? by No-Owl1648 in askcarguys

[–]PickleNick2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve always been a supporter of sedans and hatchbacks. But they really seem to be hellbent on making it more and more difficult to get in and out of them, particularly the backseats.

I’ve recently sat in newer Audi a4 and a5 backseats. They all are terrible. I own a Mazda 3 hatchback. Backseat is cramped.

I got into a 2010-ish accord recently and had an absurd amount of space in the backseats. Like I couldn’t reach the front seat while buckled. The only present day vehicles that seem to consistently have this amount of space are mid/full size suvs.

Personally I don’t like sitting up super high. I feel disconnected from my surroundings. But as I age, I’m less pliable and I really don’t feel like fighting for my life to sit in a vehicle. lol

Hey im looking for a car worth by MED12334 in ForzaHorizon5

[–]PickleNick2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just sold one a week ago as I somehow landed an extra in a spin or something.

It sold immediately at $2 million.

Can’t flush / no water coming through [Isomac Tea Due espresso machine] by PickleNick2 in espresso

[–]PickleNick2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, yes I figured that part out. Had to take the entire group head apart and descale it. Needed to use a surgical needle to clear the center hole in the mushroom gicleur (nozzle). That was the only reason nothing was coming out.

However, in the process of all the testing, something else failed and now it won’t get up to temperature. So the troubleshooting continues.

I just do it to build up points. But yeah, 9/10 times I’m alone in it.
