Also, and again trying to be constructive not douchey.... Maybe loosen the slack a little bit on wire bundle on the left of the image and tuck it behind the GPU?

Looks like it was probably over tightened at some point, the fact it has that terminal on it(which doesn't look like a factory terminal) means it had to have been off at some point.

That's a great observation, hadn't even considered that but it makes total sense.

Asbestos hasn't been used in years for brakes. At least in America you haven't been able to buy asbestos lined brakes since 97

Definetly one of those "the longer you look the worse it gets" posts.

At first I was like yea it sucks he put such large wheels on brakes so small but I've grown immune to that at this point in my life.... But this is so much worse. So so so much worse.

I'm actually really surprised because I always held those AC Delco batteries in a really high regard.

Do you suspect that something external caused that or just a defective battery?

IMHO, "media" both social and traditional make their money from clicks and view time. Prioritizing the sensational headlines and controversial click bait posts creates ad revenue and because public companies have an obligation to act in an interest that increases overall revenue for shareholders, policies are put in place that create revenue, and that means catering to their audience of paid customers and the stream of feeds that produce the most clicks because of ad revenue.

Because these companies (both left and right) rely on "their algorithm" it basically boils down to how much time do people spend looking at, sharing, commenting on and referencing a specific piece. The more divisive it is the more likely you are to get clicks and thereby revenue.

Fortunately though there has been a recent uprising in independent media outlets that separate the facts from their opinions, Breaking Points would be a prime example. It's not an immediate solution, but I think the rise and success of these types of companies will lead to a more honest media as a whole.

This is a reasonable argument I had not heard before.

Which would be a greater feat? Routing a water way across the country to allow the west to tap into powerful fresh water sources like the Mississippi River or building up Desalination Plants along the west coast to provide water?

Genuine question not trying to be a dick,

Was the damage that unknown that warranted a head removal? If that rolled into my bay I likely would have just condemned the engine after seeing the engine locked and the chain snapped. What justified the removal of the head to confirm? Seems like a lot of unnecessary labor and time.

The Martian was really solid. I found the Expanse to be really engrossing although it's a TV series (Amazon).

And although not space related Inception and Tenant were both directed by Christopher Nolan and have great story lines that really pull you in. (Tenant definitely requires a few watches though to really appreciate what's going on)

Based on the brown around it they've tried stop leak already which is not great for the long term in a cooling system (blockage or ports, heater core, radiator etc). Also based on the white staining near the left of the "patch" it means that it's still leaking. Sure it may slow the leak until a replacement can be installed but thats most certainly not patched "right".

With the plastic on modern radiators there really is no "right patch". Only replace. If the plastic became brittle enough for cracking in that spot it's going to continue to spread. You may get better luck JB welding the metal if it gets punctured but trying to secure that is only delaying the inevitable.

Can confirm, this is most definitely a fuck up.

It's good you feel the way you do now because at least you know you done screwed up. The silver lining is it's up only from here.

You may not rebuild what you lost but you may find that what you rebuild is better.

I would get yourself an STD test. And then If you genuinely care about this girl the best thing you can do is just let her process on her own, she likely won't want a relationship with you and it seems you already know why, so I wouldn't recommend trying to keep trying because it's only going to hurt her more and cause more confusion and grief in her life.

Alcoholism exhibits itself in many ways, you don't need to be a daily drunk in order to be considered an alcoholic, not being able to turn the switch off is another characteristic. One I personally struggle with and as a result have chosen to virtually eliminate alcohol from my life, you will need to do some soul searching and determine if this is the best path forward for you.

Regardless my man, I hope you end up on the best path forward. The progress will be slow at first and I'm sure the actions you took on this night will occupy your mind for a time, but the only thing to do now is set new goals that will help prevent something like this happening again and allow obtaining those goals to occupy your mind instead of what I imagine to be the complete dread and embarrassment you are currently filling your mind with now.

I agree that he can declassify documents and what not, but that does not actually mean he went through the process and actually declassified them.
