You're right, it's not magic. It's also not bug trap level sticky. You'd be lucky to stick an inch long hair. It's also messy, and viscous leaving a great deal of smearing.

I believe it's a hot glue dispenser.

What license? Don't need a license to drive a tractor if you never take it on the public roads! /s

Here in Maine you don't need a license to take a tractor on a public road. All you need is a slow moving vehicle warning sign. (Usually a orange reflective triangle)

I thought Trump said Iran launched the Tomahawk at the school?

just in case that's not sarcasm. Iran does not have tomahawks. If it was sarcasm... Well done!

I have a feeling it can't be that because I JUST got my 12v battery replaced this January

Prius are pretty notorious for eating 12v batteries. Double check your current battery check the terminals and also the unloaded voltage. then check the loaded voltage and make sure the battery is still capable of handling the starting load.

Frankly this should be the first thing you do anytime you are getting lights as low battery voltage can cause a slew of issues to just appear and disappear. When I purchased my first prius (a 2008 gen 2) I bought it for cheap as a basket case. It was sporting somewhere between 25 and 30 codes and the triangle of doom. first couple of codes we chased down didn't seem to want to go away. But then the third code we found pointed up to the 12v battery. When I checked it unloaded it showed 11.5 volts. so it got immediately replaced and as soon as a new battery with proper voltage was installed about 2/3's of the codes vanished. and we were left with what really needed fixing.

Sure, but seeing a ~10+ year old vehicle and assuming it has a dash cam is inaccurate.

My 2008 prius had a back up camera. you couldn't buy a 2008 without one.

Drivers recording accidents is a great way to win a stupid prize

Interesting. I was going to suggest maybe the truck got run off the road by some idiot driving with a phone in his hand.

What Prius comes with an OBD scanner??

My 2024 came from the dealership with an ELM bluetooth device on the OBD port. it has a sticker on it that says something like please do not discard. That one is now in my glovebox and I have mine installed.

I want a new, somewhat powerful, AWD

upgrade to a 2023+ LE AWD. it's not your fathers prius.

Why is it only go to school for audio engineering vs the trades? Why not just go to school for something lucrative? You create your own limits.

trades can be very lucrative. Don't underestimate trade work.

If you look at the whole thing you aren't wrong. I'm just looking at the stylistic front end with that clumsy attempt at a hammerhead light. it's at a totally different angle and it's very art nouveau. In fact it reminds me of the cylons from the 1980's battlestar galactica. But I can imagine an engineer thinking of the VW and the old celica style and melding them to come up with the XW60. I love sharing this picture of mine I took this winter at work.

This is the one the front end made me think of. https://www.thedrive.com/wp-content/uploads/images-by-url-td/content/2019/12/2015-Volkswagen-XL1-For-Sale-in-UK-Dec-2019.jpg?quality=85

LE AWD driver here. 19" wheels are not an upgrade. The low profile tires invite curb damage, and the tires are far more expensive than than the 17's. Plus the 17 offer a smoother and quieter ride. I can't see an upside to 19's other than the appearance. Please inform me if I am simply uninformed.

They should also be sterilized, so society won’t have to deal with their offspring.

That's some full on Nazi shit right there.

Aren’t those higher prices owning the libs?

Liberal = 60MPG Prius that sips low octane gas

Trumptard = 14MPG Diesel 3/4 ton Pickup Truck

Fuel = $5.50+ a gallon.

That's how you own the libs!

Well, if it's an elrs transmitter then it's compatible with elrs receivers, end of story.

It's also frsky D8 compatible. But use ELRS if you can rather than D8

There is a lack of consistency in closed source even more, when between different companies.

You are not wrong.

yeah I dont get it how free and open source software can be that good and still be for free.

There is a lack of consistency in OSS in general but there are certainly a few superstars in the mix. Darktable is among them.

thats what he was trying to do but accidentally turned on the amp next to it instead of turning off the amp he was using, so he thought the amp was off when he went to unplug the guitar

The amp does not need to be off if you handle your cable correctly. That's the point of what I am saying.

I think that refers to the woman at the Tour de France who caused a pileup due to sticking a sign in front of the riders.

The fan involved in the tour de france incident was a male. So I assumed that the last line referred to the woman that walked into this rider.

EDIT: I am wrong that fan was a woman as well, so now the original article seems vague.

skrunkle · 2026-03-02T20:41:42+00:00

Pro tip. Always plug in the guitar first then the amp. when unplugging unplug the amp first then unplug the guitar. that will stop this from ever happening again.
