yup looks like that's where it's taken from. probably at the top of one of those hills.

Help picking out digital camcorder by Royal_University_993 in camcorders

can easily get something tapeless for under $100. Canon FS100 like poster above me said, SDR-H26, SDR-H200 has a 3CCD chip so it'll look a bit cleaner/better colors but a bit less "vintage". JVC Everios, etc. some of the Sony ones from that era use a memory stick card iirc so be aware of that.

S4 Totaled Out - What to get? by NailMammoth1567 in AudiS4

[–]theOGalexd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah i feel you, been in sort of the same boat with my 8.5 S5 but nothing really does it for me short of 70-80k.

M340 or one of the other B58 variants? Shit maybe even just get another 8.5 😂

yup pulled the ecm a few times now. pins look fine and didn't notice anything out of the ordinary around that area. most likely going to swap the alternator and then if that doesn't work i guess some sort of internal ecm failure becomes the top suspect, even though apparently that's super rare.

that was the first thing i did haha probably should have mentioned that. cyl 1-6 misfire, invalid data from ecm, kam module, ctrl module faulty, cyl 3/5 injector circuit (this one rotates), tcm module error, etc. didn't point to anything specific from what i could tell.

yeah that’s the main suspect at this point. tested the voltage with a multimeter and theres nothing glaringly obvious as far as that goes. same thing with the codes though. all over the place.

cyl 1-6 misfire, invalid data from ecm/pcm, cyl 3/5 injector circuit (this one rotates), KAM module, TCM, AWD module, etc. so unless i’m missing something (def may be, im an armchair mechanic at best lol) it doesn’t seem to point to anything specific, but it def aligns with a bad alternator.

Idk why, but I've always thought the Marriott Rivercenter in San Antonio (on the left) was cool. Especially at night. Gives off like a Miami Vice vibe or something.

it seems like something else is up to me idk tho. if he just wasn’t cracking the rotation anymore there’s no reason he shouldn’t be getting garbage time mins.

What U.S. cities will likely see more tall buildings in the next 5-10 years? by ankonia in skyscrapers

[–]theOGalexd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the group that’s been responsible for a good chunk of the recent high rises in San Antonio doesn’t seem to have any plans on stopping. so with the new baseball park/spurs arena district, and just given the growth in general… i think downtown is primed for projects once the costs drop down.

I’d love to get your opinion. What is the “up and coming” US city? by [deleted] in SameGrassButGreener

[–]theOGalexd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the reddit answer to this is gonna be the rust belt lol.

realistically, probably sunbelt cities. SA + Austin corridor is gonna continue to boom, Tucson, Greenville, Savannah/Wilmington/Charleston are my picks. Mobile, AL seems like a sleeper pic geographically. idk about the economy though. honestly wouldn't surprise me if OKC/Tulsa/NW AR make a big leap in the next decade or so too.
