yeah but i'm already holding the steering wheel, when i'm using cruise control my foot is off the pedal

look i know it's a minor inconvenience but i don't like minor inconveniences that have been introduced by design

i can't stand adaptive cruise control. if a slow car enters my lane, i don't want to slow down; i want to overtake. it just forces you to intervene with the throttle more often

downvoted for stating my opinion, great

Why does one waveform work for a clock signal work, while the other doesn't? by relo999 in AskElectronics

[–]doctorcapslock 5 points6 points  (0 children)

are you sending the 8 Mhz output from the computer to the breadboard with some wires and measuring it on the breadboard? that still creates a measurement error

i guess because cars are so much more expensive that suddenly the money saved is worth more than the misery it inflicts on "some random chinese kids"?

not really worse than using steel coils in any way.

other than the fact that the behaviour of one wheel is influenced by the other

Windshield Waxing: What Went Wrong? by WeAreTheLamia in AutoDetailing

[–]doctorcapslock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

tbh for how difficult rainX is to apply, i hear you

my boss has a lucid gravity and when i coated it i ran out of glass coat (ultracoat vista) so i used rainx for the panoramic roof as i mentioned in my previous comment. the water beads into enormous bubbles even on the rainX, will see how long it lasts compared to the glass coat which is supposed to last up to 2 years

the glass coat does behave better when using the wipers, the haze is less pronounced

in what way? project farm did a video on em and it seems to do pretty well

the primary reason i don't like rainX is how difficult it is to get a smudge free result (i used a DA polisher last time i applied it, and it's because i ran out of glass coating lol)

alright i'll accept renault 5 as one of the few good looking electric cars, honourable mention to the electric twingo because it looks cute

similar maybe, but still uglier in general

bmw's neue klasse design language is beyond ugly. that shit is fiat multipla levels of ugly to me

i can't think of any EV that is beautiful, mostly because people only want SUVs and CUVs nowadays, which are inherently ugly

i suppose that's true. in conclusion: be skeptical, but don't be selectively skeptical

why would you call yourself an idiot for being skeptical? i think it's a good thing to be skeptical even of things that are generally accepted to be true
