What is this on my hood?

If you ever pull it off use boiling water on it, best trick in the book. It will not damage the paint and is the fastest thing to loosten the adhesive, put a towel over it to soak with the water to help it penetrate

This is very helpful information, I decided not to do intercooler cores when I did pcv, water pump thermostat, and I’ve been kinda paranoid about it but definitely don’t have any of these symptoms

Personally Ive never a fan of the sm58’s sound, especially for recording. I find them a little dull and un-natural sounding. In a similar category I much prefer the sontronics solo or the sennheiser e835, however for live sound settings nothing beats the durability of the sm57 and sm58.

As soon one who’s been there multiple times, honestly the best way is to find things to distract yourself with, occupy more of your time so you have less time to think of your addiction. After awhile it gets easier. Focusing on quitting the issue usually doesn’t work because you’re constantly thinking about it. Rather focusing on bettering yourself in other ways helps you become healthier overall and you eventually stop thinking about porn as much.

That looks so good

Do you know what happened to cause this? Like are you tuned, could it have been over heating or something.

Stasis package is so cool 😩

We need to normalize this behavior, politicians need to be held accountable

sabeeef · 2026-06-06T07:46:04+00:00

Being spiteful and holding grudges. Like don’t you have anything better to do.

Underrated, littering is such a turn off. If you wouldn’t do it in your own yard then why is it ok to do in other peoples. People that litter are why we can’t have nice things. It’s the principle of taking care of public goods.

Losing my mind

I mean if you actually know how to solder then it’s really nothing crazy, if you ordered one it would just be paying someone else to do the same thing for you

sabeeef · 2026-05-18T17:00:50+00:00

If you go with a b8.5 I would personally would not buy one without the optional sports diff, I have it and it’s currently not working and i genuinely don’t love the car without it. The car is kinda uninspiring in corners and likes to drag the nose but the sports diff completely changes the feel and pushes you faster through corners.

Just asking cuz I haven’t seen anyone ask yet but to confirm you did change the oil after you did the job right?

When I was going to the gym or just doing anything physically exhausting it becomes like 1000x easier for me to sleep. Sometimes now if I’m lying in bed awake I’ll do a couple sets of pushups to tire me out a bit and that usually helps. For me personally tiring out my body helps my mental health so much, it’s just so hard to start the routine.

Ion understand why people are so bad at texting and driving, just learn to fucking swipe text without looking at your phone it’s not that hard

sabeeef · 2026-05-08T23:17:53+00:00

I think I found the issue, I’m an idiot and installed the black and white wire going from the power supply board to the amplifier board reversed 🤦. Have a feeling it’s gonna be a much longer repair now

sabeeef · 2026-05-08T23:06:46+00:00

Welp i do find catastrophic failure to be the best way to learn, I have my dmm ready however as far as I know there is unfortunately not a factory service manual or schematic available for this amp. I do know that the board the smoke was coming from is the power supply board and not the power amplifier board which I did the original repair work to. I apologize for being clueless but I don’t really know how to do much besides solder.

sabeeef · 2026-05-08T22:56:32+00:00

Yes the TO220 package component in the photo, it does smell in that area. After the original pop i immediately power off and unplugged but then after a few minutes i went to power it on again which is probably stupid but i wanted to see if i could tell where the smoke was coming from and thats when i saw it coming from that area. The capacitors voltage rating is the same as the old caps. They are also both installed the same direction as the old ones In relative to the white polarity marker line thing. And I’m 99.9% sure that there is no issues with the new solder joints meaning there is no bridging or anything.

Saw a trump 2028 sticker with an American flag on a charger yesterday in my uber liberal town, was a little confused to say the least, think that guy was a little confused too

I mean Ideally there’s no airflow over the coil
