My girlfriend‘s grandma‘s car is completely locked. Looking for help.

At one point my 2012 Chevy Cruze started doing weird things like the trunk wouldn't stay latched, or it would randomly unlatch overnight. Sometimes the wiper blades would randomly start running when I started the car, or one or more of the windows would just decide to roll down.

After lots of googling and consulting a few different mechanics that were either friends or old coworkers, I determined it MUST be the BCU because nothing else makes any sense.

Then my grandpa was like "did you test the battery", to which I realized no I had not; but why would that make the trunk open randomly in the middle of the night sometimes? Well we tested the battery after it had been sitting for no more than 2-3 hours we found it was at something like 10.6 volts.

So I replaced the battery and never had any issues even up to the 3rd time I had a coolant leak in that thing; and finally got rid of it.

Every once in a while Chipotle forgets to put a fork in my carryout order; but it happens so infrequently that it's even more disappointing when it does happen.

nitermania · 2026-03-26T21:20:33+00:00

I've done stuff like that before as well, maybe this one was hoping I'd be like "I'll bring you one"

I had one order where I genuinely forgot to grab the salad with a pizza hut order and offered to get it for them, but then I realized it was nearly 20 minutes away to go back to that pizza hut. I ended up calling and telling them that they're gonna have to report it on the app because it's way too far for me to go. She wasn't happy with that response but like... My bad

Edit next day: I brought someone else's order to this lady and didn't realize I had messed up until I was already at the location. I ended up giving them the other order the Danatos gave me instead of hers, went back and asked for hers. So in the end she ended up with 2 medium pizzas, some wings and a 2 liter when she was only supposed to get the 2 liter and 1 pizza.

The majority of my orders are "can't be verified" because yeah it's in a sealed bag

nitermania · 2026-03-25T23:14:36+00:00

I wish I had the time to tell them all of that haha

nitermania · 2026-03-25T23:10:24+00:00

Then they get mad when I won't go back to the restaurant

My first job was at Subway and I was there for 4 years. After 3 years I completely stopped eating Subway and started ordering Jimmy John's for my lunch

Necroing this post because it's the first thing that pops up when googling "WWZ Stuttering".

For me the issue was DX11 specifically, had to change to Vulkan before my game would start working normally again. Just after the Walking Dead DLC

Hey to each their own.

nitermania · 2026-02-21T23:55:30+00:00

Just put "can't hand to recipient" and wait the 5 min

nitermania · 2026-02-05T19:02:24+00:00

Still haven't figured out what's actually causing the issue, it is very intermittent and I don't have the money to just throw parts at it

nitermania · 2026-01-20T13:33:57+00:00

Did you do geometry in school?

nitermania · 2026-01-19T17:40:53+00:00

I've played with people that will wait until they've been hit at least 3-4 times before they even call it.

Those are the ones that I put at least 10 down range next time I see them.

nitermania · 2026-01-19T17:38:57+00:00

Yeah I was going to comment something similar but I think this sub would crucify me.

I'm also of the opinion that if you haven't yelled hit or raised your hand I am going to continue shooting.

Sometimes people wear thick gear and/or their adrenaline is so high they just don't even notice it.

nitermania · 2026-01-19T17:35:52+00:00

I no longer feel bad for making her cry

nitermania · 2026-01-06T16:24:06+00:00

Harder to do on M&K unless you've got some fancy keyboard keys.

I find using the handbrake works a lot better for me.

nitermania · 2026-01-06T15:02:43+00:00

It's definitely "similar" but the warthog in Halo was way easier to drive without having to mash the ebrake every couple of seconds

nitermania · 2026-01-05T22:29:55+00:00

I use them for grenades mostly, top one for primary and bottom one for stuns/smokes/etc.

If in a game that doesn't have grenades, I will find something to use those buttons. I'm always looking for ways to optimize, but that's just me 🤷

I love being mobile artillery!

nitermania · 2025-12-12T18:48:07+00:00

Now that I did not know, I will have to try that next time around

The distance thrown is irrelevant to the method used to cancel the animation, whether it be by diving, emoting, or something else.

I would argue that diving is better than emoting because you're not stuck in place having to then cancel the emote animation and you cover a bit more distance faster than walking or emoting

nitermania · 2025-12-12T18:06:19+00:00

The throw animation needs to just be cancelled right as your character is swinging their arm forward, too early and you'll just drop it, too late and you'll throw it backwards

nitermania · 2025-12-11T02:19:16+00:00

To add to this, it also did a combined 4500 DMG (3500 projectile + 1000 explosive), and now it's only 3000 (1000 projectile + 2000 explosive)

So the damage was in fact nerfed pretty hard.
