I've gone through two periods of my life where I wore contacts regularly. Both times I came to the conclusion that I just don't like the maintenance required. I will gladly go get a set of trial disposables and wear them if I'm doing something like flying to Hawaii and intend on snorkeling a lot. Put them in right before I get to the beach, take them out and throw them away when I get out of the water. My brother (who didn't have nearly as strong of a prescription as me to begin with) wore contacts exclusively for years and years. He finally went ahead with LASIK and couldn't be happier. Me, I'm too unnerved at the whole "lasers in your eyeballs" thing. I also figure I've only got a few years left before I need reading glasses anyway.

There's a Vibe GT on Craigslist for $1500. hosed paint and high miles but still vaguely tempting.

I'd be more worried about what the coolant had done to the rest of the system in that condition, rather than the engine. Which is to say, BMW levels of GOD drat COOLING SYSTEM.

If it still had Dexcool in it when it started running low, it probably filled the cooling system with silt. That poo poo is evil.

Do they list different ac lines based on the compressor?

Cars 3 is excellent. Absolutely redeems Pixar for Cars 2, and is probably better than the original.

Rhyno posted:Didn't it come in far under expectations? You're the first person I've heard good things about it from. I've never claimed to have perfect opinions, but I don't really see anything to fault it with. It won't end up as one of their best works, but it's solid. It is pretty much the first one from different perspectives.

No need to. I don't think I saw a single throwback to Cars 2. Technically they killed off Doc Hudson (since who the gently caress replaces Paul Newman... nobody, that's who) but in Cars 2 it was a "oh he died a while back, we miss him, HEY HERE'S MATER" sort of thing. Cars 2 was basically a feature length version of those "Mater's Tall Tales" shorts they did. In 3, Mater is back to just a side / background character.

InitialDave posted:I don't think so. You can do the opposite, and block specific people, but I don't think you can allow only specific people. Given how many times I've seen absurd listing prices (like 5-6 figures for things that cost $20) I can only imagine this is the reason.

That tie rod doesn't know what the gently caress.

I was ogling the Saturn V on display at the Lego store in Chandler yesterday. Isn't that kit pretty much sold out already?

The Midniter posted:Was this a dick move? We're the customers and buying a car is a big decision and a major purchase, so I feel like we were within our rights to do this. What does AI think? Funny enough, we had this almost exact same thing play out buying our CR-V in 2013, except the first guy wasn't nearly as much of a dick in person. But he was pushing pretty hard to try and sell us the moment we walked in, and gave us a hilariously bad price. I fired up Truecar the next night and got a vastly lower price, though what followed was apparently a half hour of backoffice arguing about which salesperson should get the commission.

Yu-Gi-Ho! posted:Goddamn you aren't kidding. Anytime I fly anything other than Southwest I'm wondering why they're taking so long to climb or descend. Southwest pilots don't waste a goddamn second getting up to altitude or getting down to the ground. If you really want to see them have fun, fly out of SNA sometime. The rich folk surrounding the airport have crazy noise restrictions. They taxi onto the runway so they start as far back as possible, lock the brakes, hammer the throttle, and wait for the engines to spin up before they release the brakes. They climb out of there hard to 1000' or so. Then they pull the engines back to near-idle and glide out to sea as quietly as possible until they can get far enough to resume a normal climb. LloydDobler posted:Well it just got a lot less tolerable. "But this managerial course we took says we have to have people in the office from 9 to 5! It's important!" That's a load of horseshit. I can't stand management that doesn't seem to understand that a big part of the reason people work is because they have families to take care of, and might actually need to spend some loving time with them.
