Love how car dashboards have high-resolution LCD screens now that can show as much arbitrary info as they want to but still refuse to break away from the "single idiot light LED with a dictionary of secret codes that can only be read by a diagnostic device and map to readable problem diagnoses", I guess to protect the dealer mechanic network

Turn your key to on 3 times fast. You probably get some codes where your mileage displays!

Contrary to that, you have Mercedes whose dash tells you exactly what is wrong, but you have to go to the dealer to get it fixed.

This is kind of not true. A check engine light can also mean "I've just poo poo out all my oil and you need to do something about it RIGHT THE gently caress NOW or you're not going to have a car anymore"

Anyway, funny picture

My Opel Omega from the early 2000s would tell you exactly what's wrong on a dot-matrix LCD display too. It's pretty sweet - your pads are worn out, your brake indicator bulb is out, washer fluid is low, etc. Never had a CEL though so I don't know if it would show like misfire on cyl 3 or whatever. E: looks like this:





Well that's my funny story.

It's more to not be relying on another piece of equipment that can fail too to get your diagnostic. It's always been like that with many electronics and I think it's good practice

But half the fun of the vaguely threatening warning lights is going to pay for the diagnostic and nothing showing up!

Wrestling fans don't have massive blind spots when it comes to their thing & inappropriately bring up wrestling and how it has a great example of progressive views on X real world issue in mixed company, accidentally outing themselves as massive perverts\weirdos in the process.

ANIME
1: feminism intersects with leftist politics in many fundamental-
2: DID YOU SAY FEMINISM? One of my newest intellectual repasts, "Oh! My Feral Princess" has some rather interesting things to say on the subject, with the titular princesses themselves being paragons of female power.
1: *googles it* so wait, the men turn the women into dogs with dick shaped wands, then let them be human once a week if they do their bidding? And they have sex with the women dogs?
2: Yes... well, it IS a complex narrative...

WRESTLING
1: I like headlocks
2: I also like headlocks
3: feminism intersects with leftist politics in many-
1: woah, wait, we were talking about headlocks
2: yeah, not that other thing
3: oh, sorry
1: s'cool
2: yeah, s'fine

Anime is media veganism, vis a vis not being able to shut the gently caress up about it, except most vegans don't accidentally come off as pedophiles.

E: I hope this short presentation has changed your mind, picture on the internet.

Oh, if you only knew my roommate from college. He'd bring wrestling into every conversation, because he was so dumb that he thought his obsession intersected with everything. At one point he thought wrestling invented the term "clusterfuck" because it was used in his wrestling forums regularly.

In my experience someone just has to say "I'm vegan" to be labelled militant.
