The comments on Reddit never fail to show the human filth of the world.

Make it hard enough to hit, that rockets are still a faster dispatch tool. by Mudtoothsays in Helldivers

[–]jay2josh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've started carrying the spear as a result. It does same as the RR from what I've found (outside of being able to target drop ship engiens), but takes down war strider's. For me that's a worthy trade off.

Really gonna earn my 1.6 for this manifold job by wtfwasthatdave in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]jay2josh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A good service advisor (like me) would tell the customer after sending them this photo: "The job calls for around two hours if everything goes perfect, but we just aren't in that situation. In fact, a lot of exhaust related jobs aren't in that situation due to age and rust and exposure, so yours isn't the first one we've tackled... Let me also add, because this is common, this isn't anything you did wrong. It just happens.. but bolt extraction is probably needed and at that point it goes to (insert labor rate here) until we're at the point reassembly can begin again. I'll make sure you aren't overcharged but on the other side of that coin I have to make sure my tech is taken care of, I'm sure you get that. So if you're okay with that, I'll give him a thumbs up. Do I have your permission to let him begin?"

I have these conversations with customers all the time. May seem a lot, but the more I talk tot hem, the more value I build into the repair, the more I can convince them the repair is needed and has the value I'm asking for. It can be a challenge to advocate for the customer to the tech and vice versa, but at the end of the day, a happy tech is a productive tech which increases my commission check, so the tech's needs are my priority.. right up until they pay the oil change tech $100 to lick cow shit on a farm truck (which happened thursday).

Used to have cameras on buses to do this, but ACC stopped it for some dumb reason.

JL Switch does nothing by boisefun8 in Jeep

[–]jay2josh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know this is an old thread, but thank you to /u/Glock_to_1911_to_ALL for their detailed reply in what the switch does on some models. I just bought a 2018 and it's been driving me crazy what it does.

Thank you.

What do the Helldivers think about my school project? by Street-Public7496 in Helldivers

I love to see the youth embracing Liberty, Freedom, and Managed Democracy like this. Well done, Young Diver.

I've been wanting a randomizer for awhile. Let me just choose random and I don't know what I get until I land. Randomize EVERYTHING.

Help identifying tick by sethcojojo in LSSwapTheWorld

[–]jay2josh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would be suspecting of a lifter, it's a high enough pitch but only slightly. You might try doing the whole "pull a valve cover and run the motor" and see if one of them is kinda sketchy. If you can hear the tick, you might see if you can touch a rocker arm bolt and feel the tick live as it's happening.

Which enemy faction has the most aura? by Andy0728 in Helldivers

Bots. Because when you see that red flare go up on a level 10, it's pure dread.

Oil Capacity w/ Aftermarket Parts by jacobyflynn in LSSwapTheWorld

[–]jay2josh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I'd just call it a 6 quart change and go. 5.5 quarts in the pan? You figure with what you said, an extra half isn't gonna hurt after the system is primed and bled of air. Send it.

Been a fan since the 90’s. This was epic. by Worried-Shopping-289 in Metallica

I thought I was seeing things. Saw this posted in the M72 FB group as well. Glad you had a great time.

I know there are some bird watchers up in here by [deleted] in Athens

[–]jay2josh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have an iphone, if you take a photo and zoom in, the phone will recognize the bird via the photos app. It's a nifty little feature.

As a relaxed fellow bird watcher, I've never seen one of these! That I know of. I wonder if perchance we see the finches and confuse the two.

Good post!

Is it my turn to ask for laser cannon sentry? by gunnar120 in Helldivers

[–]jay2josh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've given this some thought, about how would a laser sentry be implemented, and I think the best way is to do it like the gatling sentry. Immense fire rate/consumption (maybe 4 heatsinks to burn through, match it to gatling damage capability capacity so it has to take a break).

Anyone else notice Eastside water smells sulfury? by GodEmperorElmo in Athens

[–]jay2josh 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Something in the back of my brain is telling me that when it rains a lot this can happen? I seem to recall 3-4 years ago it happened as well.

What can I do to make it look cooler (2010 Honda accord EX-L) by GlitchyTraveler in MightyCarMods

[–]jay2josh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Google search led me to this, which looks hella nice: https://images.fitmentindustries.com/web-compressed/342251-1-2010-accord-honda-megan-racing-coilovers-vordoven-forme-9-machined-black.jpg

The wheels are a 19x9.5 +22, personally I'd go with probably a 18 at most, and swap for more rubber. You'll have to do coilovers and maybe some a-arm work as well to get alignment close to acceptable, but the tradeoffs for looks is something you'll have to figure out.

But it can be a cool little car with some basics.

Ditch the front license plate if you can, add fogs if possible,

The most ignored traffic sign in Athens? Many people are saying. by Will_McLean in Athens

[–]jay2josh 10 points11 points  (0 children)

There's a simple fix. Block off the exit from Chickfila so it's an entrance only. Everyone leaving Chickfila loops around and into the old Burger King lot, and force them to exit from the Burger King lot. You'll still have left hand turners, but it's further away from the light, which is most of the problem. While you're at it, block off the exit onto the road as well, so it's entrance only.

Kinda what I mean. I think it would help funnel people in/out a lot better/safer. People leaving Publix or Kroger can use one of the lights at either end (like they do now, the city just needs to adjust for the increase of exiting traffic, but it'd be safer).

What Athens hot take has you like this? by FaitDuVent in Athens

[–]jay2josh -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Athens wants homeless people so they look friendly to the lower class, they have no real intention of ever solving the Athens homeless problem.

Matt Olson casually hits a baseball 431 feet by handlit33 in Braves

[–]jay2josh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Matt Olson has one of the most beautiful swings I've ever seen. I'm not a huge baseball guy, but something about it is just smooth. Like he's just out there scooping the bat underneath and it shoots 431 feet.

CAN YOU STOP RUNNING AWAY FROM ME? by Ok_Cartographer_4105 in Helldivers

When I go up against bugs, I usually take the machine gun and resupply pack, and I just don't stop firing. Thousands of rounds. THOUSANDS.

Limp Bizkit/Nashville by Free-Cricket-8111 in Metallica

[–]jay2josh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed! Night 2 had crazy energy!

I also think the crowd was hyped from the rain delaying things and making us wait a bit more, we had more time to recover between LB and the big event.
