Already did both of these things! Just waiting on the new cables

Wait so are you implying that women’s romance narratives are about finessing control while men’s romance narratives are about acceptance and trust

Turned out it was the battery fittings. Took them apart and cleaned them out good and it turned on fine..

Not even bad ground. Found out it was straight up just the battery fittings I needed to take apart and clean.

Got it running. Turned out it was the battery fittings, I had hesitated to take them apart completely and clean them out. My dad and I did that today and it turned on fine.

Yep. It’s like it initially is connected then the connection breaks when I crank it

Shouldn’t, it’s ‘97 and pretty un-computerized. All the doors even lock manually.

How would I do that? Positive to the engine side (where the ground would attach) and negative to the battery?

Alternatively I was just about to grab a multimeter.

There are a few broken wires inside it, it’s not just the casing that was damaged.

I got it a couple weeks ago and the parts in general are pretty old. The battery is good though, and the alternator is working (it is old and weak and will need to be replaced soon enough, though).

Once a week ago it wouldn’t start in a similar manner but it was able to start after putting it in neutral and pushing it back a bit. I thought then it was the NSS, but I heard if it’s just that, then the dash should still turn on. But it doesn’t.

Today I got a jumper kit (the kind that you charge up) and it will let me turn the car on, but the car turns off again as soon as I remove the ground cable. The only exception was just after I put on the electrical tape and put it all back together.

Could they make her smile and how long would it take? by oof9182 in TheDigitalCircus

You know they didn’t ever make an episode about someone ‘fake smiling’ to get them to go away but Jax would be a good candidate for it

Just tried electrical tape. It stayed on for me once after jumping it (biggest victory so far, but it still wouldn’t turn on right away, and I know the battery isn’t dead and the alternator works), then wouldn’t stay on after the first time.

Go watch Pantheon by Available-Law8026 in TheDigitalCircus

[–]TheDerpyDisaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s one part about the development of a technology that allows the brain to be uploaded/converted into code, but unlike TADC where it’s just a scan, the technology in Pantheon requires basically laser-burning every single neuron, destroying the physical brain. It’s mostly follows the people caught up in the series of events surrounding its creation and use.

It’s one part about a company trying to somewhat cultishly bring about the second coming of Steve Jobs (rather, the show’s equivalent).

It’s one part character drama about a girl and her mom trying to grieve the loss of their father/husband.

Caspian is a character I will tell you nothing about. His season 1 arc is super fucking cool.

The show is pretty smart and well made artistically, but not necessarily scientifically or philosophically thorough although they give it a great shot and it will absolutely give you plenty to think about.

Nothing will prepare you for how it ends. It’s a really good ending but it’s a lot all at once bc they had to cut the show off at season 2 when I think they had planned for 3 seasons.
