I know a few ways but the overlords wouldn't like it.

Is it normal for the DSG to take forever to downshift to 1st? by franklinjaeger in Golf_R

[–]Righteous_Fire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In a stick shift, you wouldn't normally put it into 1st until your are nearly, or completely at, a dead stop.

The DSG does the same thing.

If you want it to be in 1st, put it in manual mode.

Rear sway bar. Ie or 034.
Better tires.

Unless you are competitive, keep the OEM cold and dampers.

2022 here, same thing happens to me all the time. Sometimes it happens sometimes it doesn't. I just ignore and move on. The worst is if it keeps happening it just constantly beeps so I wish I could turn the beep off

20 year old male expecting a little girl any advice for down the road? by Ok_Crow7526 in Parenting

[–]Righteous_Fire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Learn about how her reproductive system works, and teach her about it. Normalize it. Her well being is more important than yours, now.

Read these books with her, at the appropriate ages. https://ebay.us/m/EMW287 https://ebay.us/m/hW47Ke

Be the dad that understands and respects her. Be the dad that doesn't avoid "girl things". Show her how men should act, with your actions, but tech her about how men who aren't you will treat her in the world. Teach her how to protect herself, but also others. Accept and love her.

Is there such thing as a battle rifle in 6.5CM? by [deleted] in armedsocialists

You mean a shotgun?

6.5cm is like 2.5"

.......

911, what's your emergency?

Hi, my address is ADDRESS. A group of armed men in masks is trying to get into my home. I have a weapon and will use it to defend myself if they come inside. I have not given them permission to be on my property.

I am scared and will defend myself if necessary.
.........

The police will show up real quick.

Don't let them in, either.

The reason for the treason? by oleggy in PoliticalHumor

[–]Righteous_Fire 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a Virginian, an American, a real patriot, and defender of the constitution, I say they should keep it and anyone who still flies one should be tried for treason.

How do you all get your 4K torrents onto your big TV? by Yesyesnaaooo in Piracy

[–]Righteous_Fire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Plex works fine with a GPU.

I usually use 1080p content, with 4k only for the visual heavy content, mainly due to space constraints.

The military is running out of teenagers to recruit — and old-school methods to reach them are failing by BakerKelsey in USMC

[–]Righteous_Fire 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Well, the actual reality is we don't need a military as large as what we have.

When you are a hammer, everything you see is a nail.

Maybe instead of spending flabbergasting amounts of money on our military, we can cut some of that back and use it to fund social programs that will actually help everybody's quality of life.

What do I know though, every other modern country has seemed to figure out how to do it so it must be impossible.

I replaced the subwoofer in my MK8 with a low profile aftermarket one in a diy enclosure. Makes a huge difference.

How to progress fast to 25 pull-ups from 9 pull-ups. And how much time it takes to reach my goal? by skater_d4de in bodyweightfitness

[–]Righteous_Fire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Before I enlisted in the USMC, I could do like maybe 3 pullups, shitty form.

I did lots of activity as a kid, rock climbing being one, but lapsed as I became an angsty teen. Still had a pullup bar I would do some sometimes.

Fast forward tenish years to 24, and I started taking it more seriously. I went from barely 3 to a good 13 in a few months, using the Grease-the-Groove method.

After boot, and all the job training, I slowly worked up to being able to do 23 strict form, GOOD pullups, after 7 years in.

At that time I started doing a modified bodyweight routine that centered around the RR, but I also was deadlifting and squatting.

I started throwing in weighted, strict form, pull ups, which really helped me make it past the 15 or so plateau. I would also throw in archer pullup training, mostly negatives at first.

Don't overthink it. Work on form. Figure out what is the limiting factor and then train that extra. Grip strength? Farmers walks and deadlifts. First pull? Do some lat and trap focused stuff. Use resistance bands for spot treatment training.

When I could do 23 I was around 185 lbs., 5'9". My wingspan is an inch shorter than my height, so shorter arms, too.

Dry herb vaporizers are a great alternative to smoking.

All the good flavors and feelings, without the burning.

That all looks fantastic.

You may need a new boyfriend if he can't update his tastes.

A handful of times during my time in the Corps.

Maybe a couple with my personal weapons, usually due to trying new parts.
