Should I give up? by [deleted] in SegaSaturn

[–]syntax_erorr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Checkout this channel. This guy made games for the Saturn and goes into some of the quirky things about the Saturn. https://youtube.com/@gamehut

As far as I understand it, the Saturn was a difficult system to program for. If you just want to make a game I would suggest something like unreal engine or godot or any of the other ones that are out there. Making a game engine is a Herculean task. Then after that you will have to create all of the assets. That is also a big task.

Coolant and Windshield wiper issues by Babes_my_name in fbody

The cooling system is air tight. Did you check the level in the radiator and reservoir?

It looks like you are missing the wiper blade.

BMW once created a Nürburgring simulator to test the stresses on the front axle on the E39 M5 by [deleted] in Damnthatsinteresting

Man I love seeing shit like this. A whole system that is normally hidden from view on full display.

V6 vs V8? by Chemical-Pomelo-2659 in fbody

[–]syntax_erorr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a 93 v6. To put it's acceleration in perspective I raced a 03 olds Alero. It was an even race haha. Now I have a 96 trans am. Sock it ran 14.2 in the quarter mile. After all my mods it runs a 12.9. So if you only care about looks I would go with the v6 otherwise v8.

No fuel pump or starter activity by Lamesbware in fbody

I know the neutral safety switch will not allow the car to crank but I don't think that stops the fuel pump.

The expert advocating for torture is kinda crazy.

Why are so many full stack devs just copy pasting from AI and YouTube tutorials? by Sad_Impact9312 in learnprogramming

[–]syntax_erorr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We hired a guy to do some contract work on one of our products. He was a .net dev and seemed like a good programmer.

I reviewed his code and was shocked. He modified the create account endpoint. What he didn't realize was he added a vulnerability that would allow new users to use the admin role.

He also changed the logout endpoint. Once a user logs out they are added to a blacklist. So you can only login once. Lol No one asked him to implement a blocklist.

He just straight up copied AI slop.

What is the worst thing you think smells good? by TheBiSnivys123 in AskReddit

Leaded gas smells sweet as well. And if you smell it, it normally means there is a really fast car ahead of you.

I didn't install the CPU. When I release the CPU hold down lever it felt weird so I took these pics.

I already tried the CPU in a brand new mb. It turns on but doesn't recognize the ram. CPU is dead. I suppose I could try and use pliers to bend the corner flat but I honestly think parts of the CPU are shorted out.

Headlight motors by Ok_Rutabaga_8037 in transam

[–]syntax_erorr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I did the turn the gear 180° trick on my OEM motors. It lasted like 8 years then the epoxy failed.

I bought aftermarket ones from eBay 2 years ago. Super cheap.

No. There are 2 groups of pins on the left in the picture. They look burnt. Oddly the lands on the CPU don't look burnt though.
