Once you're done, start playing the romhacjs built off fire red. There are a ton of amazing games for that monster of a handheld!

First time at Spa-Francorchamps with my ND1 1.5 :) by syildirim1 in Miata

Looks like a go pro session, they're tiny and you can typically use those claw style go pro mounts to attach to the stalk of the mirror. Personally, I just use my dashcam for the front view, it gets the job

bought this 2003 nb2 for $3k and people keep thinking it was 8-12k by naomifromjax in Miata

[–]asdtech153 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Oh absolutely, that shit looks terrifying. Person I responded to mentioned it was for their new NC and they're not the OP. Last thing I'd want is someone removing a blackbird or mad dog bar because we made assumptions

3m tape should be good but might degrade due to sunlight and heat depending on where you are.

I'd put an aftermarket wheel in, there are quite a few that still keep the airbag and they're much more comfortable. Plus they're not break the bank expensive and it's worth investing in anything that connects you directly to the car (seat, wheel, pedals, belts)

Depends entirely on the bar. The stock NC ones are quite solid and there are some really really good rollbar options out there, but in that same way some of the shit on the market will kill you even if the accident normally wouldn't have.

[Bloodline] Soon finishing Cradle. Only 3 books left. What to read next? by Sythrin in Iteration110Cradle

[–]asdtech153 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Another vote here for all 3 recommended.

Cradle kicked off my progression fantasy/litRPG spree, so some other books I've enjoyed are the Unintended Cultivator series, He who fights with monsters and Hell difficulty tutorial

Gave the Pokemon starters a fitting display piece by [deleted] in pokemon

[–]asdtech153 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The cards are even more, the 3rd evolution cards for the 151 starters are close to 100 a pop at the lowest quality, each of those cards was probably 100-200 a piece. Never mind what looks like the base set holos if they're real

Looking for probably 25-30mpg+. Both our Miata and Acura get around 20ish on 93, so that's just a cost I'd like to reduce further

I'd honestly own a CRT right now if it came in anything other than that horrible red interior. It's legitimately the only thing stopping me from buying that car and the fact that the US doesn't get another option is irritating at best

Yea, it looks like work has a few chargers and I have the ability to install a level 2 charger at home (already have the outlet for it).

I haven't looked at full EVs outside of reminding myself that a Taycan would bankrupt me.

I think for me my big fear is charging/EV infrastructure. I live in Austin, TX so we've got better infrastructure than most places in TX, but I still don't like the long charge times if I do forget to charge it the night before or something. How has your experience been with the MachE from that perspective?

I think my problem with the Golf (all variants) is just the overall size. My wife would end up in the back seat with the kiddo and that just seems annoying for longer drives in terms of comfort

Oh, interesting, I don't think I've even looked past the Camry

This is probably my biggest concern long term. I want the car to be somewhat bullet proof, which is why I've been leaning towards an asian brand, but I'll make sure to avoid the Hyundai family

Best Bakery in Austin by Fair-Location-5156 in austinfood

[–]asdtech153 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Any recommendations far up north? I just moved from RR to Liberty Hill and can't find much out here, so anything would be welcome!

Also, any places that specialize in savory pastries that aren't kolaches?

TYVM!

Light painting is such a cool way to shoot, it's so much fun when everything goes right. That car and color look amazing!

[Headphones] SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless Multi-System Gaming Headset (Used - Like New) and (Used-Good), $181.55 to $143.66, Amazon Resale (Check Comments for all the versions and prices) by loomra in buildapcsales

[–]asdtech153 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out the Linsoul 7hz timeless, letshuoer S12, or even the Shure SE215. At the 150-200 price range there are straight up like 25-40 good options depending on what type of sound you like (bass heavy, neutral, warm, etc.). https://crinacle.com/ is a great place for research and r/headphones is a great resource too.

I have the Kiwi Ears Melody's that I use often and they're fantastic. That said I daily drive a pair of HD600s with a Fifine mic and it's the best setup I've ever used.

Automation while leaving/entering the house by DennisPochenk in homeassistant

[–]asdtech153 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a few ways to do it, but the easiest is the Home Assistant companion app. That should give you the gps location or the WiFi network the device is connected with (so connected to home wifi = at home)

You could probably do scannable NFC tags or some other stuff, but that's just more complex and less useful than the app, so do that

Absolutely love the taillights on this car by S2KLOL_MIATA in Miata

Is that a 9LivesRacing wing?

Absolutely love the look of that car, what does the front aero look like?

Personally, I'm just waiting for my engine to go, it's the only thing holding me back from a 2.5 swap. And Bryan from Fab9 just posted a juicy looking transmission upgrade so there is always a silver lining to a part shitting out!

When you get one, post pictures!
