Tommychu posted:Yes, kinda. There are about 5 Chinese tire brands that are actually good and primewell is not one of them. They're far from the bottom of the barrel though, they're just not good. Nah, they aren't that bad. I think what I'm gonna do since these things blow in the winter anyway is just chuck 'em and get some new ones. I was thinking Hankooks, but I don't know for sure. They seem great for cost and reliability.

Terrible Robot posted:Oh yeah, as if the great day spent hanging out with goons wasn't enough, when I got home a small package was waiting for me in the mailbox, from someone whose name I did not know. Thinking it was my AISS gift, I swiftly tore into it to find something just as good: The Royal Nonesuch's hot sauce! It is incredibly good, with a really strong bite that is matched by its flavor. Seriously, this is really great sauce, it's going to be hard to ration it out.  Glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for the beer money! CSB sent me a positive review stating it really hammered his rear end  You guys will be the first to know when I start exporting en masse.

SperginMcBadposter posted:The greatest driving sim is coming soon: I would probably play this as long as that's not the actual voice acting. Holy poo poo they sound bad. Also the character animations and the car look pretty bad too. The combat looks a lot better than previous games; I tried playing whatever the most recent non-MMO one was (XII?) and I swear it was just "press triangle to do the next thing" over and over.

It won't be long now until they get Swery65 to do a Final Fantasy game so he can crank out a story of two best friends embarking on a roadtrip. Across the American Midwest they will discover more about themselves and each other than they ever thought possible. Final Fantasy XVI: Oregon Trail

I love the questions I can ask (and the answers I can get) on AI.  kastein posted:e: Some reluctor wheel patterns lend themselves to easy re-coding. For instance if it's just evenly-spaced, even-width pulses with one different width as the index pulse, and your source (the newer engine w/ reluctor wheel) has more pulses (preferably an even multiple of the number you need - for instance 58 and 29) you can just divide by two with a flip-flop and then add a little special logic with a PLL or microcontroller for the index pulse stretcher. If it's a wonky pattern it's going to involve more logic, basically. This makes a lot of sense - it's a lot easier to take a higher-resolution signal and produce a lower one, than to try and turn a lower-resolution signal into a higher one and do so accurately. According to some forum posts, though, Lingenfelter actually did make one that went the 'wrong' way around to connect 24x engines into 58x cars, but it never got past their internal prototypes. The thumbnail for this video shows both crank triggers next to each other:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mtm5MbvLyuw It looks like the old 16-tooth wheel doesn't actually have anything to identify where TDC #1 is - obviously you'd need to measure it out to be sure, but it sure looks like four repeating patterns of one long tooth followed by three short teeth. The 32-tooth wheel looks like it can identify TDC #1 by figuring out if you're either on the long tooth, or the long gap between teeth.

I didn't let my ex drive very often, because he would space out and I'd have to remind him not to rear-end other vehicles, and he'd miss stop signs.

My girlfriend is not very good at making turns. Generally, they're too sharp but sometimes they're too wide. She also has no idea where she's going even though she's driven around my town for years.

LloydDobler posted:My ex was (and is) a fantastic driver, and even prefers stick. My baby sister is the best driver I have ever known. She learned stick out of necessity on a long trip from Baltimore to Indiana. She can rev match, doesn't need a tach or idiot light to know when to shift, she can corner like a boss, it's disgusting. I recently let her drive the Miata after her owning her Insight for 3.5 years and not driving stick once in that time and she was driving it better than me within 10 minutes. It's really incredible how talented she is behind the wheel and I wish we'd capitalized on it like 10 years ago because she could seriously have become some manner of professional driver.

 Just got a letter from the council saying that the neighboring car dealership that recently closed down is going to be re-opening as a funeral chapel. You have got to be loving kidding me. Already talking about selling the house and moving elsewhere.

I tried to teach my girlfriend to drive stick in Ford Escort GT I bought just to salvage the rear bumper. She almost killed me before I was even buckled in so we gave up.

The only thing getting me through this nightmare day at work is thinking about picking up my truck tomorrow!   The paint guy will drop by today to give me a quote on painting the bumpers, headlight filler panels, and grill to get rid of the chrome. Then I want to change the headlights to the black projectors and the taillights to the fancy LED ones. And debadge everything. Holdbrooks fucked around with this message at 00:27 on Dec 16, 2014 |

That's big and orange. I'd be pissed if they parked my yet-to-be-delivered new car that close to the red piece of poo poo next to it, though.
