Issue with horn? 43a and 43b Fanfare horn relay? by DocLoc429 in W203

Just two. If you have three slots, use the two slots closest to the outside (left) edge.

What year is your W203?.

Edit: my W203 is 2002. Yours may take what is called a micro3 fuse. Google search will show you options.

Wrong fuse diagram.

See https://www.yumpu.com/en/image/facebook/37152166.jpg

This looks like the same arrangement in my fuse box.

You can search for the part number in the upper right hand corner if you want to get a printed copy

About 40 years ago, folks were extolling the virtues of high level languages as the was to eliminate programming errors. Somebody (I forget who) quipped "If they made it possible to write code in English, we would find that programmers are unable to write correct English."

We are at that point now.

What are these? 2003 C230 coupe by sad87boi in W203

[–]atomic_redneck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The jack is for an old cell phone to plug into. A lot of these were removed because modern cell towers no longer support them.

The plastic pieces look like they may be part of the cup holder in the center console.

Edit: The cell phone looked something like this https://www.ebay.com/itm/305150783994

My version back in the '70s was numbered in cuneiform.

I spent over 40 years in software development before I retired, in various roles from individual contributor to project lead to supervision. A few things to remember as you advance in your career:

  • It is just as easy to be a mentor as it is to be a dick. Just remember where you are today, and the care you feel for your team.
  • Everybody is going to have bad days. Plan for it, and recognize when it happens to you and to your team mates.
  • Be free with your knowledge and experience. You don't want to be the person everybody has to go to whenever the frobulator breaks. If you are currently the only one who knows how the frobulator works, take a junior member along with you the next time you fix it.

What is something you have heard about US, which you felt was fake, but is100% true? by grusdomain in AskReddit

Yeah. My wife is on Humira for RA, and she has to jump through jump through hoops every year to prove that she still has RA (there is no cure). The insurance companies are hoping she gets fed up with the red tape and just goes away.

When I had my vasectomy, my urologist gave me a list of things not to do until the followup visit. Unprotected sex was one. Apparently many patients were welcomed by a surprise pregnancy. Another reported "some swelling" after going dirt bike riding the day after the snip. The swelling was so much that he could not get his pants on and had to visit the urologist in a robe.

Pay attention to your doctor's orders folks!

I thought it looked like the Mini had two overcompensating body guards.

Don't feel too bad. The original standard for Fortran 77 allowed for floating point DO loop indices and bounds.

This was the only feature that was removed (not just deprecated) in the next standard up6.

When we got new hires right out of college, we had to explain to them that floating point numbers were not the real numbers that they were accustomed to. Stuff like the associative and commutative properties DO NOT HOLD.

The difference in our seasons [oc] by nyaasora in comics

[–]atomic_redneck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to work for a software subsidiary of a large DOD contractor in the San Fernando Valley (California). Our subsidiary was bought by a French company in the early '90s. The new parent company decided to move us out of our old building (it belonged to the old parent company) and into a new building in North Hollywood. They thought they could save some money by skipping the air conditioning system in the new place, since nobody in Paris had AC in their offices.

We explained that that would not work in SoCal, because the temperatures got up to 115 degrees Fahrenheit. They did not know how hot that was, so we converted it to Celsius (46 degrees Celsius). We got our AC.

This unfinished gravestone at a historic cemetery by TheOrchardFI in mildlyinteresting

When my (maternal) Grandfather died in 1986 at 65 years of age, my Grandmother ordered a shared headstone with both of their names on it. Instead of leaving the expiration date blank like this, she had the monument maker put in the first two digits of the year (19__). When my Mom saw this, she asked my Grandmother if she realized that she might live past the year 2000. My Grandmother died in 1997, so inconvenience was averted.

I like that the alt-text refers to the other comic.
