Oh yeah. Was thinking "did they do a face lift". Didn't remember the prison murder tear drop tattoos on the LFA. It's an LC, isn't it.

CAT INTERCEPTOR posted:The 3.8 is a cockroach motor....? Man do I ever beg to disagree on that - They aint got poo poo on Falcon I6's for sheer how the gently caress do you kill em. depends on the version, some of the sohcs were a bit turdy with headgasket issues and a buddy had an ef that was always having coil pack issues. the barras, ohv and the later ohc engines were great tho. edit: also everything except the barra on those later falcons were utter poo poo, awful rear suspension (a step back from the au). the gearboxs were especially awful except for the t56, the t5 was far too weak for the aspirated engine and they stuck it behind the turbo (wtf) and the autos were too weak (the zfs are great when they work but when they dont its pure agony to fix) SOURCE: worked at a ford dealership as an apprentice mechanic in 2009 before deciding that it was killing my passion for cars big dong wanter fucked around with this message at 15:36 on Aug 25, 2019 |

There's a Spec V Sentra rolling around here and the owner plasti-dipped his sidewalls bright green. I saw him earlier but I couldn't catch a light to do a u-turn in time to get photos. It's a pretty odd look.

My cobalt has 217000 miles now.. and speaking to the inherent cockroach style 2.2/getrag 5 spd combo’s resiliency it is still going strong with a seemingly compromised head gasket. It came back from the brink when I poured a can of irontite in it.. although now my cold oil pressure has gone from 70 to 40. And it has a weird burble when I start it that it eventually clears.

I drove that cheap Camry on Friday, it smelled really bad inside. One of my best buds, the dude who started our local Cars & Coffee group, was nominated for the Bachelorette by his sisters and he is flying out tomorrow for the in person interviews.

Hyperdrive is a hell of a lot of fun. I'm in episode 5 and they really pull back on the commentary. Way better than other reality shows. I like that it's well represented by women too. I cried like a baby when the BMW engine gave up on Stacey from South Africa. Pulled all my dad strings.

Maybe make the penalties smaller, but have more targets? Dunno. Still, it's a hell of a ride. tetrapyloctomy fucked around with this message at 01:41 on Aug 26, 2019 |

Just finished it and while Diego was one of the best drivers up there, and definitely deserved his win, the child prodigy with overbearing father thing made me not like them all that much. Still, better him than the "I'm here because I'm rich and ruined a Lambo" guy.

I’ve got it running at my place off our server- I have zero idea how it works or how it’s set up because my mate who manages that server did it but it’s really efficient- kills a tonne of ads and also works great on the YouTube ads too- and cos it’s DNS level it means it works on your mobile devices too- I don’t get ads on ether my iPhone or iPad watching the toob.

My Laptop is 10 years old today  Specs: 2.0ghz quad core Intel Q9000 8gb of DDR2(upgraded from 4gb) 2x500gb SSDs in raid 0(upgraded from 1 500gb 7200rpm) Nvidia 260m GTX 1gb It's still quicker than cheap laptops today. in 1999, the best laptop you could buy was 10 grand with a 300mhz PII, 128mb of ram, and 4mb video memory, which in 2009 would have been completely useless. Amazing how much everything sucks today

2019 continues: last day of our trip to the UK, after hundreds of uneventful miles of motorcycling, friends’ wedding in Wales, etc etc somebody broke into our AirBnb flat while we were eating dinner and had themselves a profitable 5 minutes. Both of our notebooks, D500 + 17-55mm f/2.8... and both of our headphones. Right before a 9 hour flight. Bastards. At least they did it while we were out and nobody was hurt, but gently caress I didn’t want to deal with this poo poo now. Oh, insult to injury: they stole my last Coke out of the fridge and it’s a heatwave here. 😔

I'm in a lounge at Dubai drinking Fosters! (which is not available in Australia unless you really look, and then, why would you?). I haven't slept properly in days, I've got a killer throat infection and airline food always messes with my... digestion... I purchased a Priority Pass membership for this trip and I'm not sure how I feel about it so far. The bathroom is out of order here and they don't have a shower. They do keep bringing me free (crap) beer and there is some decent food that's also included. It's probably worth the $32 USD to not be stuck in a McDonalds foodcourt with the seething mass of humanity I've been trapped on a plane with for 15 hours. Still, I'll be in Rome in a few hours, so life isn't so bad.

drat. Went out to buy a charger and came back to reading on the news that a couple with an infant with them got attacked and the woman was shot in the head. Happened very close to where I live (like 150m). loving horrible poo poo.  Edit: Lady was a doctor. Gunned down while holding her infant. Either gang related or witness related. gently caress.

A $500 laptop here gets you a ryzen 3 2200u or i3 8130u SOC which average 2716 and 3797 in 3dmark cloudgate to this pig's 4713. So yeah, it would suck if i used it for single threaded video rendering, but for a media machine or using N64/PS2 emulators it is still more capable The only thing that i really need on it is hardware HEVC decoding because watching h265 stuff pretty much pegs the cpu.
