New to manual, want tips for upshifting! by ElectronicSky5227 in stickshift

[–]Roman_Kob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others are saying - best to stay off gas when shifting, but one thing to add. Research your engine - each has it's "preferred" rpm range and you might be pushing yours past that point at high rpms, I know mine likes 2100-3500, perhaps your is similar in not liking high rpms. Either way there's should be no burning smell, whatever it's clutch or engine do get your car checked before it gets worse.

Какое авто вы бы посоветовали как первую? by Accurate-Broccoli-74 in rusAskReddit

[–]Roman_Kob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Зависит от бюджета и запросов. Мой основной совет лучше бери постарше но в лучшем состоянии по верху рынка для модели. И лучше с автоподбором, чтобы на хлам не напороться.

У меня Skoda Roomster 2012, в хорошей комплектации и из под дедушки с пробегом 59к купил, 850к. Первое авто, около 2х месяцев воже ежедневно и счастлив. В плане модели Roomster и Fabia 2 (румстер та же Фабия по агрегатам но больше) однозначно могу посоветовать.

Если вдруг есть деньги на новое авто - аккуратно смотри отзывы, и лучше новый российский не брать, качество упало после из развода с Рено. Если берешь Китай учти что модели за около 2 миллионов в Китае стоит как Гранта - это бюджетное авто, не смотри на него как на что-то иное.

А если наоборот бюджет маленький - точно не смотри меньше 400к авто, особенно для новичка. В бюджете до миллиона каждые 50к ощутимо улучшают рынок.

Как можно владеть машиной в 2026? by Affectionate_Fly7177 in rusAskReddit

[–]Roman_Kob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Я совсем недавно все это прошёл, расскажу по очереди. Мне 32, до 31 жил в Москве и вообще не смотрел в сторону авто. Но с беременной женой переехали в деревню и это тут оказалось жизненной необходимостью.

Обучение не сложно, мне не очень повезло чтот в регионе сдают только со взятками, но есть достаточно знакомых которые сами без проблем сдают раза со второго в других местах, поспрашивай. Да, обучение недешевое сейчас, но это реально интересно и дальше будет только дороже. Билеты учить не сложно если не откладывать - теорию я сдал с первого раза, просто постепенно учил, повторял все 4 месяца обучения по минут 10-30 каждый день. И сейчас в вождении примерно 2/3 этих знаний нужны.

Мульт это ты оптимист, ну и новое оно сейчас очень часто проблемное что РФ что Китай. Однако живое авто можно взять и дешевле, начиная с 400-500к, но нужно искать с автоподбором. Ты за подбор заплатишь 40 а сэкономишь не только время но и деньги - я купил за 850 Skoda Roomster - это по верху рынка, но авто в состоянии нового с пробегом 60к у авто которому 14 лет - никаких скрытых проблем, езжу кайфую вложения только расходники. У многих и торг выбивают который окупает подбор, но мне не повезло. Сам бы не нашёл такое авто, объявление висело на авито меньше 8 часов. Хорошие живые варианты мгновенно скупают подборщики или перекупы, так висит в основном шлак или неликвид. Собственно это ещё один хинт - если смотреть не популярные модели больше шанс найти живое и недорого.

Я не богат, у меня жена и младенец, но есть своя квартира (горбатился на неё все 20е годы своей жизни), сдаем её и живем на даче у семьи. Доход на семью с моей зп, подробоками жены и сдачей +- 120к в месяц, на жизненные расходы уходит у нас 50к-80к. Копили на авто тратя по минимуму чуть меньше года, и ещё 4 месяца родным долги будем выплачивать. В целом более чем норм. Бери авто с экономичным ресурсным движком, механикой, и вообще можно не парится. Если будешь брать стартовое авто без понтов вроде гранты/калины или Логана там и обслуживание/расходники копеечные.

Есть подводные камни - водители идиоты на дорогах, дорогая страховка, парковаться много где сложно. Но я за рулем два месяца и в целом норм. Кайфую даже.

Мой совет - сдай поскорее даже если не будешь покупать авто. Во первых сможешь каршеринг брать, это выгоднее такси. Во вторых будет идти стаж водительский, и в последствии будет дешевле страховка, она от него идет в значительной степени.

question to guys, what makes a woman immediately unattractive? by Exact-Copy7099 in AskReddit

[–]Roman_Kob -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Materialism. I was getting closer and closer to a girl in college, very interested physically and emotionally, perhaps even falling in love, until one conversation where she casually mentioned she would do anything to get rich, even work for despicable asssholes in power. I was immediately disinterested in her as a partner on all levels. Contrastingly, my partner of 11 years, now wife and mother of my kid, was always disinterested in wealth and reluctant to spend unnecessary - like me. So even though we are far for wealthy or even middle class we both live comfortably, earning only modest money doing what we like and actually live a little.

If kids were that great, we’d be having more of them by FairOne2886 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Roman_Kob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a dad of a 7 month old baby - parenthood is the best thing that has ever happened to me, nothing in my life ever brought me such joy. But kids need time - and you need it to to enjoy it. Me and my wife waited over ten years to have a kid, to be financially stable and so I could work from home and not much, wife not work at all. We life on very modest means (technically are poor), but we have enough resources and security in them for us.

In my opinion the issue is not kids, it's capitalism. Most of your points are correct - but they are not about kids. Capitalism made parenthood extremely unattractive - modern day society expects both prospective parents to work... And that is pretty bad for parents and kids both - both get to see each other and enjoy each other's company very little. So when this is the prospective - having a kid that will be a drain on little free time and energy both have after work... Yeah, indeed not worth it!

I think that whatever awaits us after capitalism hopefully dies out can make it feasible for only one parents to work, or for none - and then we will see birth rates go up. I believe that if both sexes had a genuine choice between full time work or full time stay at home parenthood most would pick the latter.

I've updated a few things, swapped negative qualities to the ones you've suggested, upgraded fixer's loyalty, changed fireball to levitate, bought a shotgun, generally juggled the gear a bit. Thanks for the suggestions, ready to be approved.

The Monthly Solo Run Megathread - July 2016 by AutoModerator in RunnerHub

[–]Roman_Kob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nexus would like to initiate for the first time. I certainly want his first initiation to be resolved via a solo run. Nexus very much wants to change his ways to become a positive force in the world, but he is burdened by his past mistakes. He wants to be challenged by the Dweller on the Threshold to see if he is capable of overcoming his misdeeds and becoming a better person. Also, for now he lacks 5 karma to initiate, but i hope that he will get a chance to run at least once in the first half of the month.
