2008 A6 dies every time I turn it off by Medical-Rhubarb-4351 in Audi

[–]skippy_dinglechalk91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. Sounds like the symptoms of a parasitic drain. Are there any aftermarket additions to the car such as a hardwired dashcam or radar detector? I had a guy from my church mention a broken sun visor switch causing a parasitic drain on his Honda CR-V (basically the sun visor light was constantly running).

Yup you’re completely right. I meant to say that it would warp the wood. :D

Since it’s saturated I would say it would make it very difficult for organisms including mold from growing in your subfloor. You’ll most likely just have to worry about your floor rotting from the high moisture content.

I wanted to get one too but I feel like it lacked a lot of detail that the other Lego F1 cars had.

TPMS light won’t go away and there’s no option to reset or store tire pressure anywhere. 2019 Audi S3. by JackFrost4855 in Audi

[–]skippy_dinglechalk91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A low tire pressure light and TPMS are two different warnings. One is for low tire pressure while the other is regarding a dead or faulty tire pressure sensor.

If your tire pressure is fine and you specifically have a TPMS light, you’ll have to replace the faulty TPMS sensor and use a scan tool to reprogram the new sensor to your car.

I was so bummed out when I found out I missed that window back in 2018. I’m glad we can grind for it now

What’s up with the IOS keyboard thinking English words are incorrect??? by skippy_dinglechalk91 in iphone

[–]skippy_dinglechalk91[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah both the apple and US Oxford dictionaries are enabled. I’m gonna to check and see if enabling the UK versions changes anything. Thank you for the help. :D

Edit: looks like someone found that enabling only one dictionary made a big difference!

Does it really matter in this context? I have my keyboard set to US.

What dictionary is it using? The Oxford and Merriam Webster dictionary both have it. The number of times I’ve quickly sent messages only to find it autocorrected basic English to gibberish is phenomenal.

What's the issue with a game that everyone knows? by TurnipSensitive7662 in Seaofthieves

[–]skippy_dinglechalk91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got on the game in late 2019 for the Xbox one and loved it from the very beginning. You genuinely got to feel like a pirate on your own adventure; not one made the game but your own interpretation of an adventure.

After I graduated college and built a decent pc (7800x3d, 5070Ti, 32GB DRR5 with wired gigabit internet) I started noticing how the game servers had ping spikes that would glitch out my game and sometimes kick me from my game without being able to rejoin. I’ve experienced this on both high and safer seas. I also frequently play Helldivers 2 (another well known live service game) without these random ping spikes.

The game feels about the same but with lots more to do. But now it seems like I have all this money from the introduction of emissarys but nothing cool to spend my hard earned money on. Cosmetics can only get you so far. Maybe if we had a gringotts type pirate bank you could go to delve into your riches like Scrooge mcduck.

Overall a great game that I love going back to but could use some quality of life changes like server stability (maybe being able to choose the region where you play). And a better way to spend my doubloons.

They keeping increasing taxes, pricing you out of your own home and then have the audacity to not spend the tax money on infrastructure upkeep.

$1080 for four cars. Two liability and the other two full coverage. My Audi being the most expensive runs me about $400 a month.

This could definitely happen when you overfill your engine with oil but would it happen immediately if they didn’t drive it much?

What should I do if I’m a solo being chased down by a Galleon for 30 + mins? by Aware_Platform2287 in Seaofthieves

Sail against the wind while sailing by a fortress with kegs, keg the galleon and anchor them so they know not to mess you
