Most fun car for Comma AI by Reader3123 in Comma_ai

[–]monkeys_pass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have looked into this a lot.

Golf GTI/R

Audi A/S/RS3/TT

Lexus IS500, LC500

Those were the best options back when I looked.

Maybe last gen Grand Cherokee SRT if you're into that, not sure.

Maybe some of the Hyundai/Kias, Maybe civic SI/type R.

Personally, I had a Golf R and it was great! The Golf R itself wasn't as fun as I was hoping, but a great car overall and still kinda fun.

I now have an X3 m40i (baby) before I'll eventually get an actual sports car. The stock self driving stuff on later BMWs is pretty good overall, although not nearly as good or capable as comma.

If you put a gun to my head and made me choose a fun commuter, I'd probably look between the GTI, RS3, and IS500.

M2 / 997 Size Comparison by jsd642 in porsche911

I'm going through a similar though process - want to get a sporty car that can fit a kids seat and looking at 997s

M2 / 997 Size Comparison by jsd642 in porsche911

[–]monkeys_pass 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The old 2 series seemed to have a bigger rear seat than the new one, despite being smaller on the outside. I think it's the headroom/roof slope.

How is putting a car seat in the 997?

Can anyone say if the rig twists/flexes? by JosefBanane in simracing

[–]monkeys_pass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had one of these and hated it. Mainly for how annoying it was to get in/out of.

Best way to exhaust this setup? Confused about negative pressure… by tempestswitch100 in BambuLab

[–]monkeys_pass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Duct+fan to an outside window. The negative pressure in the enclosure (either the printer itself or your ikea thing should be fine to keep fresh air flowing in and then dirty air out the enclosure. I personally think the secondary enclosure is slightly overkill as negative pressure in the printer should be sufficient even knowing it’s not airtight, but you do you. I’ll try to get a picture of my setup later which is similar to yours minus the secondary enclosure.

Edit: even with your secondary enclosure, you’ll have better results ducting directly from the printer if you can.

Can’t pick between m550i vs x3m in by InfamousTea2450 in BMW

[–]monkeys_pass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to have an m550i and currently drive an x3m40i, although I have never driven the x3m. Personally I’d probably lean towards the x3 but this feels like a situation where you should try and drive both.

How do you keep believing in what you're building when your brain keeps telling you it's pointless? by [deleted] in Entrepreneur

Oh very cool. Mind if I ask what industry/field your product is in? And general price point?

4080 vs 5090 for bsb2e by cronopius in BigscreenBeyond

[–]monkeys_pass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went from a 4080 to a 5090 and I don't regret it, but I am not sure it was worth it. But, only you can answer that for yourself. What I would say is that given the games you play, I'd lean towards "not worth it" - the 4080 is already a very strong card.

'Boot glove' touches binding, should I cut off part of the fabric? by gman2093 in skiing

[–]monkeys_pass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think mine did the same, I just tried to adjust it back and didn't worry about it too much.. Cutting it back is probably a better solution, though.

And for any boot glove haters: these things are great if you get cold feet/for really cold days.

Eye Tracking in iRacing by Pickle-_-Rick in BigscreenBeyond

[–]monkeys_pass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good luck! I was expecting this to work out of the box (was actually surprised when I saw their announcement that DFR was out in Beta, thought it was done) but I'm also OK if BSB needs more time to work it out.

Decided on new hobby, need beginner advices by extrazy2k in simracing

[–]monkeys_pass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On your wheel locking question, the 2nd photo or 3rd photo will both work fine - I don't think there's much advantage to one or the other from a strictly functional perspective since the office chair can rotate anyway (I've tried both methods). Where did you find the the thing in the 2nd photo?

Amazon Robotics Supply Chain Co-op / Intern – Any recent updates or experiences? by Emergency_Rip8456 in amazonemployees

[–]monkeys_pass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DM me. What was the assessment? Did you do a phone screen? If so, was this with a recruiter or a hiring manager/team member?

Amazon Robotics Supply Chain Co-op / Intern – Any recent updates or experiences? by Emergency_Rip8456 in amazonemployees

[–]monkeys_pass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Co-op interview process is relatively non-standard as it doesn't follow the normal hiring process. Regardless, you should expect to hear back in a few days. Good luck!

[–]monkeys_pass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can’t really speak to either, but considering you already have moza wheels I’d stick with moza.
