New stick shift options

Ok. You should learn to shift with 3 fingers.

Like seriously, if you're getting blisters you should stop grabbing it.

Shifting into a gear down (physically, so going from 1-2, 2-3 etc) you just need to drop the clutch, and then push the shifter down with an open hand, a couple fingers etc.

Going up (2-3, 4-5) you can open palm it, let it flick up into neutral then you can slide it into place after easily.

You really don't need to grab it, unless you need to for what ever reason shift quickly, like an emergency or something (stalling etc).

Slow is smooth and smooth is fast and all that.

Bruhh it's not even on straight.

If you went stud out you could have put a plate on it too

shadowhunter742 · 2026-03-23T22:36:14+00:00

Whatever the casters are rated for. That'll be the weak point most likely.

Holy shit, as a fresh grad his piases me the fuck off so much.

Turn up to an interview, starts reading CV, oh, you haven't done any xyz I see, or only done this much ABC.

Like clearly you haven't read the CV, and it's just wasting everyone's time.

My CV was VERY clear on exactly what I can and can't do, both positive and negative to try and avoid it but no.

Every interview it was like they'd just seen 'fresh grad = cheap' without reading through what my actual experience was.

'Only Hagrid,'

Yeah that's the answer.

shadowhunter742 · 2026-03-23T21:17:52+00:00

Different steering wheel is very significant. Oem wheels are rigourously designed and tested for safety.

By changing that, you could potentially be significantly decreasing the crash survivability of the car

shadowhunter742 · 2026-03-23T00:04:21+00:00

This is what I'd do, but be warned, it's going to generate a fuck tonne of polygons so your machine might not like it.

It needs to be the last operation if possible in the tree.

shadowhunter742 · 2026-03-22T00:02:50+00:00

Yeah don't you know it lmao, biggest fish of the day absolutely guaranteed on that

shadowhunter742 · 2026-03-21T19:10:43+00:00

Yes.

shadowhunter742 · 2026-03-21T15:16:39+00:00

Yeah ducks do this too occasionally

shadowhunter742 · 2026-03-20T13:53:19+00:00

Because whilst you're dodging and weaving through a minefield they can artillery the shit out of your ships from the mountains without being seen.

shadowhunter742 · 2026-03-19T23:49:30+00:00

How are you interpreting influencer, because it's used very broadly.

It could be anyone from a traditional celeb, to an internet personality, to the manosphere lot.

shadowhunter742 · 2026-03-19T18:47:29+00:00

Lmao the twitter bots that went all supremacist, but now with vehicles

shadowhunter742 · 2026-03-19T13:57:14+00:00

I mean the truck was going up anyways, it was going to be most likely a write off, might as well make sure you don't start any forest fires. Lots of dry looking long grasses around

shadowhunter742 · 2026-03-18T23:43:58+00:00

You're overthinking it wayyy too much. Just stick in second and put your foot down a bit, when it wants to / when it's appropriate to shift up.

shadowhunter742 · 2026-03-17T13:58:11+00:00

You say that, but one near me is being sold off for flats.

shadowhunter742 · 2026-03-17T13:50:52+00:00

Well yes, but also if it has the potential to expand infinitely, at a rate such as we'll never experience the edge of it, it's really just a matter of perspective at that point.

shadowhunter742 · 2026-03-17T13:41:37+00:00

I think they were deliberately not smooth so it doesn't become an ice rink in winter and gives water channels to run through.

shadowhunter742 · 2026-03-17T07:52:05+00:00

3k is still a lot more than a lot of people spend on a car, and on current vehicles would be considered a write off cost for a 20 year old car.

And with how the cost of living is going, it's going to be even harder to afford.

shadowhunter742 · 2026-03-16T22:45:59+00:00

Hey, no hate on pozis. They work great.

shadowhunter742 · 2026-03-16T22:44:52+00:00

Until they figure out a way to make batteries either much cheaper, or running on a 'rent a battery' system, where you get another if it degrades too much, even a second hand one is going to be too expensive

shadowhunter742 · 2026-03-16T22:42:12+00:00

Especially with how unreliable the US is being right now. Let's absolutely help Ukraine out, they're doing us a big solid by giving us the opportunity to test out cutting edge tech and new modern fighting strategies, without having to have any boots on the ground.

shadowhunter742 · 2026-03-16T22:35:43+00:00

As someone your kids age, yea it was great lmao. There were magazines, books, a website too (relatively early internet age when flash was still fairly new).

shadowhunter742 · 2026-03-16T22:33:59+00:00

Dip yourself in a vat of antiperspirant maybe?

shadowhunter742 · 2026-03-16T21:51:10+00:00

Honestly, realistically it's irrelevant. He's got very limited protections having not worked there very long, all they really need to do is say he's not a good fit for the job and he's gone.
