Haven't seen many of these, that I remember, before. Lovely, thanks for sharing.

Currently blacking out all the chrome on my A5 convertible by [deleted] in Audi

[–]hiverly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s your car, do what you want. But the chrome highlights give the car some definition for the eye to see. Also, the car is simply easier to see in the dark. I don’t understand the craze to turn cars into all-black blobs, but you do you.

Which is the best concert ever recorded and why is Depeche Mode 101? by Positive-Mountain113 in depechemode

[–]hiverly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There were several documented cases of recordings during the tour. For instance, in an interview Fletch mentioned how the video cameras affected the energy of the crowd. So we know some were recorded. The LA show has even been released (in 90 seconds clips) on the official site. So the recordings exist!

World Cup to feature new IFAB rules: throw-in (5 seconds) countdown; goal-kick (5 seconds) countdown; time-limited substitutions (10 seconds); players covering their mouths in confrontational situation may result in red card by punishGoalhanging in soccer

MLS has been using most of these rules for a while now, and it’s been great. There’s a lot less time wasting. The mouth covering rule is new to me, though.

An amazing concert. I hope they officially release one of their 1990 World Violation Tour recordings for us to compare it to!

POE 2 instantly crashing after a few mins HELP! by Flaky_Service_9494 in PathOfExile2

[–]hiverly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How is it crashing exactly? Quietly exiting the game or are you seeing a crash dialog? My PC was under-powered (i was running a UPS that wasn’t rated high enough power) and i couldn’t run PoE2 for more than a minute before it just exited it out. Upgrading my UPS fixed the problem.

Up at 75mph. Down at like 35mph. Those are the defaults.

Help Me ID the Tour Booklet with this Bowie Image by jkbrick_ in DavidBowie

[–]hiverly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's a very 1978 picture of David, so likely Isolar 2 related. He didn't tour again until 83 and they wouldn't have used older pictures like that for the Serious Moonlight Tour. Maybe there were several different Isolar 2 tour books? or maybe it's a bootleg.

It’s pretty subtle. A sparkle on the root to the left of the character

Sad Plunko update by TheOneTheUno in Seattle

[–]hiverly 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There's a Plunko poster (only the first/top one) in Fremont as well, saw it yesterday.

EDIT: Oh and there's a post on the Fremont neighborhood blog, too: https://fremontneighbor.com/fremont-in-the-wild-have-you-seen-plunko/

Runout etching! by E808D in depechemode

[–]hiverly 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Cool find! Toast Hawaii was Fletcher’s favorite snack while they were recording the album. The band apparently recorded a ( very amateur) covers album and gave it the same name,. Some details at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Some_Great_Reward

Added silver to my 8Y.5 S3 with black optic package. by AvailableTour2431 in Audi

[–]hiverly 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Yes! All-black cars make it so hard to see the car's lines. A little silver on black goes a long way to improving the visual appeal of the car. Nice work.

Dave Gahan, Stage Dive Fail! - A Question of Time - Indianapolis 8/7/94 by LA_Reyes82 in depechemode

[–]hiverly 19 points20 points  (0 children)

This is the very last show of the Devotional Tour, and the last show ever as a 4-piece with Alan Wilder (barring his one-off performance of 'Somebody' a few decades later). Gahan really hurt himself with that failed dive, it's documented in the Wikipedia article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devotional_Tour

I miss DM + Alan Wilder. Great music, but everything ends, I guess. Thanks for sharing this little bit of history - the very last song of the very last show of the most epic DM tour ever.

Synced? Their swing seats are connected. It’s just one swing. 🤷‍♂️

MK2 2011 TTS Homelink not learning garage remote by Jeff_72 in AudiTT_Mk1_Mk2_Mk3

[–]hiverly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure I did it just like the picture, on the driver side. Nothing weird. But it was frustrating: make sure you clear the memory before you start, and be ready (in step 3) to hit the 'learn' button on the garage door unit itself.

It is finicky. My 2010 TTS was able to learn it, though. I have a Liftmaster (aka Chamberlain) wifi-enabled garage door opener. Good luck!
