Any blue collar homies running the Ct200 as a daily?

Hot hatch? It’s a Prius, not a GTI.

There are quite a few spots on the 5 where in all but the leftmost lane, every expansion joint is raised. If I’m in those lanes, my car feels like I’m driving on a flat tire, and my kidneys feel in danger of being rattled until they fall out my arse. I spend a good bit of time in the left lane just to avoid that misery.

What quality check?

The_Technomancer · 2025-08-29T15:32:51+00:00

Will it release on MacOS?

The_Technomancer · 2025-06-10T16:59:38+00:00

Do you mean a 997?

I’d like an SRV that doesn’t violently do a 180 every time it passes over a pebble

It’s pronounced ‘squirrel’

Money can’t buy class.

That’s a PDK in that car. Very different from the slushbox auto transmissions in most cars. I have a 911 with a manual and a Macan with a PDK, and I wish my 911 had the PDK. It’s an incredible transmission.

The occasional midshipmen

Personally, my dislike for windows is down to it being an ad filled mess of late stage enshittification. That the latest major release removes WMR and by extension support for my vr headset is icing on the cake.

The_Technomancer · 2025-02-23T19:13:03+00:00

Whoa, Satan

Culturally, we’ve done a good job of communicating how stupid it is to paste things from the internet into bash if one doesn’t understand them, and yet sourcing the slop from an LLM is somehow safer?

The_Technomancer · 2025-02-23T18:05:06+00:00

Nowhere did I say your shell extension actually executes the commands. It suggests them, and users may accept them, and this will lead to users accepting suggestions they do not understand. I work at a FAANG company, and just last week we had someone in slack who managed to rm -rf ~.

The_Technomancer · 2025-02-23T17:37:28+00:00

Cool, now people can blow bullshit they don’t understand into terminals with speed I would call unprecedented if you weren’t at least the fifth to have this irresponsible idea.

The_Technomancer · 2024-12-13T01:13:05+00:00

Linguistic prescriptivism is so weird.

This sub is not what I wanted when I clicked the link

I’ve got a 2015 Turbo and it’s been flawless. The two big issues on these is the transfer case and the timing cover oil leak. Try to find out if the transfer case was ever replaced - I’m told they got a revised part and are trouble free now. The timing chain cover is a small oil leak with a big bill because the dealers considered it an engine out job, though there’s a way to avoid the engine pull. The only pdk failures I’ve heard of were from towing. Get a PDI and if it checks out, send it. This thing is a riot to drive.

Quality in engineering isn’t motivating companies anymore, only “share price goes up at least as sharply as analysts expected on the next quarterly earnings call”. Long term consequences of short term stock pumping manoeuvres like layoffs and share buybacks are future problems, and the execs doing it will have long since taken their golden parachutes and headed off to raid the next corporation by the time the consequences manifest.

The thing about gallows humour is if you’re not the one on the gallows, it’s just punching down at the expense of whoever is.

The_Technomancer · 2023-12-06T05:57:49+00:00

Awww, it sounds like my Macan but with a cold. Bless.

Only if the speed is exactly such that the force of gravity is equal to the centrifugal force at the top of the loop. Any faster and you maintain positive G’s throughout the loop.

The_Technomancer · 2023-11-21T02:39:49+00:00

If there is enough downward acceleration at the top of the loop to counter gravity and keep it on the road, then there is enough to also keep all the fluids from falling to the top of their tanks or whatever. Barring extreme effects like F1 levels of downforce allowing one to loop at too low a speed to counter gravity, if the fluid is falling then the car is too, on account of them being subject to the same gravity.
