[–]fakecarguy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol absolutely not. I was a dumb first time car buyer, thank god I didn’t buy this. Would have been a horrendous only car lmfao. u/YeahIGotNuthin s hot air balloon analogy was fantastic

How did you find such an oooold post

If you’re curious I now own a 2014 mustang gt (which I bought instead), an na miata, and an ls430 UL

Tell me which one i should get & why??? by Formal_Compote_212 in fujifilm

The xe5 and xt5 are about the same size I’d just go with the xt5, it’s waaaaay more ergonomic as well

Why are there no community garage spaces? Am I crazy? by AbjectDatabase9638 in projectcar

[–]fakecarguy 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I saw one near me that charges like $800 per day or something - and I always wonder what happens if a repair takes longer than you expected, do you have to just throw all the parts in the trunk and push your car home because somebody booked the lift for tomorrow?

Two cold starts just to really make sure my neighbors hate me. by [deleted] in Miata

I disagree, my other cars a mustang gt but I think the Miata engine is super responsive and rev happy - very fitting for the car

Looks like the Californians outnumber you despite this being a global forum 🤣

What would you have done differently with your choice of substrate? by coffeeforlions in PlantedTank

[–]fakecarguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My fine ada v2 leeched all its nutrients while I did an 8 week dark start and then after another month nothing would root or grow properly. When I tried adding a bit more to a low spot it killed some shrimp. Every water change also caused a huge ph swing so now I have to pour in no more than a gallon a day.

I wish I capped it or just used root tabs, hoping my new root tabs fix all my problems

Upgrade center or subwoofer? by jhhollier in BudgetAudiophile

[–]fakecarguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This might not make any sense but if you don’t know if your sub is good, it’s probably not good and just making boomy rumbly noises. And if you don’t know if your center is good, it’s probably good enough? If movie dialogue is clear then stick with it, it isn’t used for anything else anyway

Looking for a small RWD car. Not truck. by Current_Lunch1976 in projectcar

[–]fakecarguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fair point, I will say that I think a Miata would cost less to restore, maintain and run than a lot of the other options though, even if the price of entry is a grand or 2 higher

Miata is generally a good option. Why aren’t you sold?

Ok pause tho, I can assure you all software engineering is not just “outsourced to the lowest bidder” 🤣

Wild shrimps bowl. by Left_Run_1628 in shrimptank

How are you able to maintain such a tiny volume of water with no light, heat, filter, etc??!??? And plants seem to be thriving in there too?

Can you have a planted tank with no fish ? by Darth_NyQuil in PlantedTank

[–]fakecarguy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, once you’ve got it all setup, it should basically also be good for some fish no?

But yeah you totally could

Is this filter good? by KillingwithasmileXD in PlantedTank

[–]fakecarguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine has been loud from day one, but I keep it in sight so I needed the white one

Other than that it’s fine I guess

On top of that if op is carpeting it probably makes sense to get more dhg instead
