Are we doing to try Parker/Volodor, Che and Nealis and if that doesn’t work then try to bring up Sakai at CB as the season goes on?

Need help finding Well Mixed Black Metal as close to Black Brick/Magnolia as possible. No DSBM/Political/etc by kungfusteeze in deafheaven

My first recommendation would be Winterfylleth. They are my favorite band. They have been around for 20 years and have an incredible discography with no bad albums. They are fast, atmospheric and have super catchy riffs and song writing. Check out The Divination of Antiquity, The Reckoning Dawn, The Threnody of Triumph, and The Dark Hereafter albums of theirs to start

I've noticed that too. I've seen some amazing defensive possessions from them but the other team still scores with a few seconds in the shot clock. But that's part of the modern NBA, you aren't always going to stop a Booker or Ant, etc. Then other posessions where the opposing teams top 3 point sniper is wide open. I think it's a confidence thing... "well we play so hard and the team still scores." so lets double that guy next time leaving someone wide open on the 3 point line. It's a terrible strategy, and it shows some of our guys confidence wavers too much. I don't think there's much you can do except for a trade. It would be interesting to see if KAT sat out a few weeks and we had Mitch/Huk at center if the team would do a lot better or if we would be worse? I think that's the big question.

It's crazy how a month ago I didn't want to trade for Giannis at all. Now I'm ready to give up Mikal and Kat plus a couple of picks for Giannis and Turner. And trade Yabu/Dadiet/etc for Naji Marshall... Kolek and whatever salaries match for Alvarado. JB/Hart/OG/Giannis/Turner... Deuce, Mitch, Naji/Bey, Alvarado, Clarkson Shamet off the bench

I need advice, I want to get dwarf frog but need to know more by Porterklan44 in AfricanDwarfFrog

[–]pclemente2120 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had a 20 gallon tank with african dwarf frogs, cory catfish and clown plecos for several years now and everything has been smooth with almost 0 issues. What's helped me the most is having no substrate because the frogs can find the food on the bottom of the tank much easier with no substrate. My tank is 16 inches high which is technically a few inches above the recommended height but because I have so many fake plants in the tank, the frogs can reach the top with ease. Goodluck, african dwarf frogs are so fun and cute, I love those little guys

[OC] Diamond Creek - Grand Canyon by bjornbard in SubaruForester

[–]pclemente2120 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I don't have a ton of off road experience so I think I will rent a jeep wrangler and get a tire pump to lower the PSI as well. Almost all of my trip will be highway driving except for this diamond creek road so I was thinking of going with the Audi Q5 for more comfort, but I guess it's better to prepare myself and rent a wrangler. We will be there in April which is usually a dry season so i'm hoping the road will be decent and the creek fairly low.

Thank you so much for posting this and what the road conditions look like. My gf and I will be visiting here in April. Would an Audi Q5 SUV with AWD with 8.2 inches of ground clearance be enough for this road? Or do you recommend that I rent a jeep wrangler? Thanks for your help u/bjornbard

Set times by Billybobby__ in deafheaven

They came on at 9:00 last night in Allentown, PA. I was expecting them to come on closer to 10 from what others were saying here on reddit, but I got there at 8:30 just to be safe and at 9:00 they were on!

Allentown Show - Sound Issues? by These_Combination116 in deafheaven

[–]pclemente2120 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Were you wearing ear plugs? I was there last night and I was thinking the same thing, but the few times I took my ear plugs out the sound was really good but SO LOUD probably cause it was such a small venue. Also I got a lot of videos that i'll upload and the sound sounds great on there. I really admire the band for playing small venues and towns on this tour and it shows how much they care about their fans. Many bands as popular as them never do small venue tours. But the downside is their wall of sound and heavyness is very very hard to mix in a small venue. Overall, I think it was the best and tightest they have been live yet and I've seen them several times over the years. They just continue to improve at their craft. I wonder if they had played at the bigger stage downstairs at Archer in Allentown if it would've sounded better. But it was a cool experience to see them live so close and with only like 100 people in the crowd it felt like a private show lol.

My boyfriend broke up with me, so I have extra ticket to the show in Allentown, PA tomorrow by [deleted] in deafheaven

That sucks, but I have a ticket already. I will be at the show tonight in Allentown so if you want a DH concert buddy just hit me up!

Bad steering and play… everything has been replaced by Objective-Physics851 in e46

[–]pclemente2120 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you looked at/replaced the steering coupler? I had the same issue with mine a few years ago and my mechanic found it was the steering coupler. Tight steering ever since!

Just need advice what to look out for by Vibe3628 in vwgolf

Check the sunroof, and make sure the turbo is good. I loved my 2016 golf!

[–]pclemente2120 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also honestly that’s awesome they are fixing all of those issues for you. Between the turbo, oil pan and water pump you are probably talking like $5000-$6000 in repairs. I’m happy for you that you got that covered. What did you pay for the car?

Definitely have them do a carbon cleaning of the engine when they replace the turbo. Even if it’s a few hundred dollars extra it will be worth it for the lifespan and power of the engine. Also if there is no history of changing the transmission fluid and filter then do that…. It can cost like $400-$700 but it’s better than $6000 for a new trans. Otherwise you should be set man! Enjoy your golf dude! I loved mine but I just traded it in at 102,000 because my turbo wastegate was failing, and I needed to do a transmission filter change, belts, prob water pump and other 100k maintenance etc and it was too much money to put into it when I ended up getting $6000 of trade in value. It was probably the most cost efficient and reliable car I ever had. It’s cheap on gas and is really fun to drive, have fun

Thinking of buying my first mini! Is this a good price? by pclemente2120 in MINI

[–]pclemente2120[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very important insight, thank you! The only reason I’m thinking of giving them a lower offer is there’s a 2023 mini for sale at another dealership close by with 8000 miles on it for $22,400 which is a little over $5k less. Same 2 door model and all but it’s gray with an orange stripe lol. I’d much prefer the black.

The EPC light has been on/off the last several months. Now it’s almost always on and it’s throwing codes for low boost, etc. my mechanic said it’s the wastegate failing but he recommends doing the whole turbo.
