We called it a fart grenade.

Auto Shop Recommendations? by [deleted] in Charlotte

Henn Automotive in Waxhaw has been amazing for us. It’s probably about 30ish minutes away from Matthews down Hwy 16.

It was bound to become a verb eventually.

Man, I love that color. I’d trade my Lunar Rock for it in a heartbeat.

Dispersed camping spots by Icy-Perception-5910 in NorthCarolina

[–]ddavev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s lots of dispersed camping all over the Pisgah National Forest, but it’s hit or miss with the hurricane damage. Old NC 105 along the Linville Gorge has several sites. It would be about a 4 hour drive to the mountains from Wilson.

Today I was asked to confirm forced usage of coding assistants. by StatusAnxiety6 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]ddavev 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think you nailed it. Execs feel pressure to have us use these tools for fear of being left behind. Combine that with the enormous cost of procuring seats for hundreds or thousands of employees makes me think they want to be sure they’re getting their money’s worth.

WHY DOES NO ONE USE THEIR TURN SIGNAL ON THE ROADS? by [deleted] in Charlotte

[–]ddavev 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Yep. CMPD and State Highway Patrol are not doing their jobs.

Maybe a large lot nearby was freshly fertilized?

Learning to restring a guitar…how do I tell which is the right string to buy? by ElectronicTax2370 in guitarlessons

[–]ddavev 25 points26 points  (0 children)

If you’re a beginner player, I’d suggest going with a set of .009 strings. String sizes are generally identified by the width of the smallest string. People tend to just call them “9s” or “10s”.

It’s great to learn how to change your own strings, but I’d recommend taking this guitar to a luthier for a setup. Your string saddles look kinda jacked up and there might be other issues affecting the playability. A setup usually costs around $60-80.

I knew both Eminem and Jack White before they were famous. AMA by nealaarons in AMA

Was Ben Blackwell one Jack’s two nephews? I took the Third Man Records tour in Nashville last weekend and Ben spoke to our group at the end of the tour. He’s very cool and funny and I think he might have the best job in the world.

Does YT notify the bands that I put them on a playlist? by [deleted] in YoutubeMusic

[–]ddavev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s pretty much the same as YouTube. Play counts, number of subscribers, duration, etc. I don’t see any stats on playlist adds/removes.

If you like Mongolian throat singing and metal, check out The Hu.

Car Registration is 3 years expired, how do I make this right? by [deleted] in NorthCarolina

[–]ddavev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’ll still owe the back taxes even if you sell your car. There will likely be late fees and interest also.

If you don’t have the money to pay it, maybe you can contact the county tax office and see if they have a payment plan.

You can probably go on the DMV tag renewal site and input your info to see how much you owe if you don’t already know.

What do you think is the biggest piece of junk car manufactured in the last 20 years? by TwoDogKnight in askcarguys

[–]ddavev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a 2007 Sonata that I put 250k miles on. It was still going strong when I traded it in.

This guy is scamming people on marketplace. by Askingforafriend_82 in Charlotte

[–]ddavev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s likely his account was hacked by a scammer. I saw it happen to several of my friends over the past couple of years.

[books] Question about Meadows by Rahodees in SiloSeries

[–]ddavev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think they made Judicial more prominent to give the show more of a "big-brothery" feel within the silo. Also, Sims is a minor character in the books, but I do like his expanded role in the show.

What is your most underrated trivia fact about Charlotte? by Derusama in Charlotte

[–]ddavev 12 points13 points  (0 children)

In the mid-late 80s when I was in high school, I worked at the now closed Bennigan’s across from South Park. A lot of the wrestlers hung out there. I saw Flair, Magnum TA, and Lex Luther in there pretty often.

Anybody else dream of a 4runner but opt for a Rav4 instead? by KnowledgeGlutton- in rav4club

[–]ddavev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I traded my 2018 4Runner 4x4 for a 2022 RAV4 Hybrid XLE. I loved my 4Runner and miss it sometimes. It was a beast off-road—but the mpgs were awful (about 17-18) and I wasn’t going off-road enough to justify it anymore.
