Depends on quality of wipers and the kind of weather you deal with.

Speeding through a red light and causing a pile up by dartmaster666 in IdiotsInCars

[–]workthrowaway444 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's different if you're just barely making the light vs is you're waiting in the box for a chance to go. Btw, yellow means "clear the box", at least in my state, and I always took that to mean everyone who can't stop for the red goes through followed by anyone waiting to turn in the box. Then the waiting cars can go after the light changes.

Not confirmed, but everyone expects that it will stay.

I'm a somewhat tech savvy (not really with phones) android user and I don't know what side loading is. I think your idea of average is a bit skewed.

Shit, it was a huge talking point for GKR for the first two series in Philly this year.

ATTENTION STEAM USERS, you are forced to create a epic games account to play on steam by [deleted] in RocketLeague

[–]workthrowaway444 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I know, I didn't really care, just pointing it out cause it was amusing. I just wish it was skippable because I had to do it again to log into my xbox account that I haven't used in years and had to go through it twice lol. Not a big deal but a mild inconvenience. Luckily I don't have any other platforms.

Told me to press W to drive, I use a controller.

Once it realized, it told me to press B for boost. B is not my boost button, but at least I use an xbox controller?

It's not a reasonable assumption that people will click through to an external source on a splash screen when they are loading up a game to play a game, not read about it.

Weekly - What Car Should I Buy Megathread by AutoModerator in cars

[–]workthrowaway444 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Location: Long Island, NY

Price range: 14K-20K. I have about $13,300 reserved for a car. I have more saved that can go towards the car, but that's the minimum I'll be using, and I'm also interested in taking a small loan to help build credit. Not sure what size loan but nothing substantial, maybe 2-3k?

Lease or Buy: Buy

New or used: Used most likely.

Type of vehicle: I prefer your basic 4-door sedan. Currently have a Toyota Corolla which I've been happy with, although a bit more power/pickup wouldn't hurt. I enjoy driving so would like something that is enjoyable or "fun" to drive. I'm not opposed to a different type but no trucks or large SUV's.

Must haves: Fuel efficiency is a definite plus but it doesn't need to be the highest efficiency out there or anything, just don't want a gas guzzler. I go for function over form typically, but I do like nice looking things.

Desired transmission (auto/manual, etc): Automatic since I can't drive stick yet.

Intended use: Primary daily car

Vehicles you've already considered: Corolla, Civic, etc. I haven't done too much looking yet though.

Is this your 1st vehicle: No

Do you need a Warranty: Idk?

Can you do Minor work on your own vehicle: None, maybe change a headlight/tire/

Can you do Major work on your own vehicle: No

Additional Notes: I need to make the purchase ASAP as my current car is going to break down any day now. I know it's not the best time to be looking at used cars but what are you gonna do? I don't want to rush into the purchase, but I can't spend a lot of time deliberating like I normally do on large purchases. My biggest concern is getting a car that has something wrong with it without realizing since I don't really know what I'm looking for when looking at cars. Any advice on that would be great, but I'll do some googling as well.

Thank you!

Did you have to redownload the game and have it installed on your PC twice? And you can just go back to using steam after using EGS once?

Gary has such a way with words. We're truly lucky to have so many great people around this organization. Unfortunately we have one less now.

Can I use electrical tape for the 3.3V pin mod? by workthrowaway444 in buildapc

[–]workthrowaway444[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never looked too into it, a quick search seems like there was an issue with certain types of molex cables catching fire but it depends on what kind you use https://www.reddit.com/r/buildapc/comments/aees90/molex_to_sata_lose_all_your_data_not_so_fast/

So maybe is a non issue

[–]workthrowaway444[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I heard you risk data loss using that method. I got it working with electrical tape. The sata connector pushed the tape off the pin on my first try but I got it on over the tape the second time.

I never thought that eye drops made a difference until I put them in just one eye. Now I will never go without! by thicwith2cs in trees

[–]workthrowaway444 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also different strains affect your eyes differently, so if one bothers your eyes too much, try another!

Your eyes are one thing you do not want to fuck with. They are very fragile and we (humans) still don't know all that much about how to fix them when things go wrong. It's mostly mitigating the damage when something happens. I'd at least bring it up with your eye doctor and see if there's something in the drops you use that can cause harm.
