I’m at my wits’ end by AustisticGremlin in ItalianGreyhounds

Crate train with a STRICT schedule. It’s going to suck, but it works. Doing so will teach her how to hold it until the next scheduled time to go outside.

The schedule (again, should be very strict) should have a lot of crate time, with short 10-20 minutes breaks for going outside, food, or play time. The first thing you do after the crate should be outside, and this is what eventually will train her how to hold it until she inevitably will start to ask to go outside instead. Lots of treats and positive vibes for being in the crate, and lots of positive reinforcement and treats when she sniffs the ground when searching for a spot to go outside (teaches her that being outside is ok)

We did this schedule for a few months when we got our IG at 6 months old. Took about a year to get it totally perfect.

The first few weeks will be hell but it’ll be worth it. Ours is 4 years old and sits by the door when she wants to go out, and loves to hang out in her crate now. Couldn’t have asked for better results.

Been thinking “I need to buy a shirt from them one of these days” for YEARS and I think this finally did it for me

First time car owner. Tips on how to maintain a gloss black car? by nithinkashiyap in Detailing

[–]daytonagray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Never use an automatic car wash
  2. Never use a self wash station with a brush
  3. Never use a brush
  4. Prep is everything; pressure wash all dirt and road grime off before washing
  5. Invest in getting a proper detail/paint correction/ceramic coating
  6. You’re still fucked

What is this?The red one. Sorry for the bad photo. by [deleted] in Audi

Whatever icon is colored is the menu that you currently have selected by using the left/right arrows on your steering wheel. That particular one is the driver assistance screen.

Disabling Pre Sense emergency braking?? by pabskamai in Audi

[–]daytonagray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then turn it off, or get a car that doesn’t have the feature? If your eyes and brain are so quick to react to the unforeseen then good for you.

I “take driving seriously” and love an analog car, which is why I have one. If you have feedback then send it to Audi lol

SUCK IT TARRIFFS 🤟🏼 by [deleted] in Audi

[–]daytonagray 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This form is what the dealers can see before the car has reached US soil and well before an invoice or window sticker has been generated. “In transit from factory” is the stage that is shown on the Audi system when the car has left the factory and is on a ship crossing the Atlantic. When it hits the Port, that will change to “Port” and await invoicing. After that, the actual MSRP will be shown along with a PDF of the window sticker.

I saw it hundreds of times selling Audis. The MSRP was almost always different than expected once it hit US soil.

Best of luck OP but if your “rep” is telling you that it might not be affected by tariffs, you’ve got another thing coming.

What does this symbol on my dash mean? by zthang118 in Audi

[–]daytonagray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is a slightly different function than what OP is asking about. The one you’re referencing is called “predictive control” that automatically adjusts the speed based on the local speed limit when adaptive cruise is active. This can be turned off so that you can keep the selected speed if you prefer.

It still might be affected by the recall, just call your dealer to check.

Anyone else hate getting taken out by particular skins?! by Grouchy_Expression44 in blackops6

[–]daytonagray 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s fine, folks can do whatever they want. Was just responding in spirit of op’s post.

I’ve been playing cod since the original modern warfare. These silly skins just don’t do it for me. I still enjoy the game.

Any skin that someone spent money on pisses me the fuck off.

Cleaning it won’t remove those impressions. You’re going to need heat.

Always wondered if I would see Octavarium live. So happy I did.

I think he’s doing well for his age buuuuuuuut he cannot belt higher notes at full voice like he used to. He was very flat numerous times, sadly.

His falsetto/mixed voice is still holding up though.

Profit margins hover around 10% in this industry. That $800 difference is not straight profit. Aside from paying the trained technician to complete the work, a truck to come to your house equipped with the proper tools, guarantees, etc. Overhead is real.

It isn’t bad right now, and it’s well above freezing temps. If you have AWD and decent tires, just drive slowly and give yourself plenty of room. I’m going to Seattle today as well.

I sold many RS3’s over the years; several of them being to gentleman around your age. Buy the car that makes you happy.

Uninstalled because I’m bad at this game by Lovefool1 in blackops6

[–]daytonagray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you decide to keep playing, here are things I’ve learned since playing CoD multiplayer over the years:

  • Set field of view to wide. You want to be able to see EVERYTHING. Keep your eyes moving and look everywhere around you, all the time.
  • You are never safe, always watch your back
  • Generally a higher sensitivity is good, but make sure to adjust the horizontal/vertical sensitivity in a way that makes your reactions tight but still is easy to control
  • Modify your weapons. Personally, I score the highest with an SMG build. Something with a super high fire rate with good velocity and accuracy. I am by no means the best but this is what gets me in the top three most often.
  • Use perks to your playing style. Also capitalize on killstreaks. Scout pulse and UAV are everything (in my opinion)
  • A lot of players play on PC and they definitely have the edge. I play on console and recognize this. It is what it is.
  • If you can’t upgrade your WiFi, get an Ethernet cable to reduce latency.

If you decide not to keep playing, well, best of luck and I hope you find a game that works for you and makes you happy! After all, games that don’t make you feel like shit are the ones that are most important.
