It's August 31st. It's September somewhere. Here we talk about things with wheels, motors, appendages, babbies, poo poo and generally drive Adiabatic slowly insane. This month we'll find out: Did STR ever take a poo poo or what Whether FAT 32's babby has more hair than dad How many of Rhyno's friends end up on the news Whether slidebite's sunroof quits working More tales from tetrapyloctomy's emergency room If CommieGIR starts politics chat this month If Kaker can squeeze another kei into his garage If You Am I finishes his lego car Whether everdave's Camry keeps its fluids topped off If CAT INTERCEPTOR finally stops shaking his fist at the clouds What new vintage electronic MGS has bought Which automaker is winning the race for the bottom Which of the regular posters Adiabatic probes first And which irregular poster joins the cool kids club

I embarrassed myself nicely today at work. I was shooting the breeze in someone's office, told a great story, phone rang and I went back to my office to do work. I came back 30 minutes later, walked in and started the same exact conversation from the beginning again. My coworker asked me if I was ok, I said I'm fine. He was like, you literally just told that same story 30 minutes ago, are you sure you're not having a stroke. Geez. I'm in trouble if I'm doing this at 40.

I was scheduled for a work trip this week starting in Savannah this evening and ending in Richmond on Friday. Just cancelled it. Not getting in the way of that one. All the while, the remnants of Gordon knocked out power here this morning, just turned back on.

I can get a day out of my cheapo UPS running a modem and router. The fiber station is next door, so in theory as long as their generator fires up and the lines aren't damaged I'm good. Came in handy today as we didn't have power for most of it. Can always run out to the car to charge laptops and cell phones and use the LTE hotspot there too.

I thought I was having a bad day. The guy who lost is boat on i-40 is having a bad day. The 2 cars that drove into his boat are having a bad day. Anyone trying to go east on i-40 is having a bad day.

I couldn't sleep last night and started reading Consumer Reports online. They've started posting owner's feedback in with their auto reliability scores, and I don't know that I put any stock in their reliability scores anymore.    So then I flipped over and started looking at appliances. Same story -- along with their ratings, they let owners do their own reports. Same story -- the models they recommend frequently have low user ratings. Most start with "I bought this because it was recommended by CR and it's garbage". Followed by stupid anecdotes like 'My vacuum sucks as a dog grooming device' or 'My dishwasher doesn't get hot enough to bake my tilapia'. These are the people filling out CR's surveys.

I drove the entire length of I-40 in TN yesterday in pouring rain the entire way. We decided to play 'tally the cars without headlights on' The top 4: 1) Toyota/Lexus - 107 cars 2) Hyundai - 41 cars 3) Nissan Altima - 32 cars 4) Honda - 27 cars I mention the Altima because every Nissan without headlights was an Altima. Almost every Honda was a Civic, but there were a handful of Accord and CRVs in there too. Hyundai was mostly Sonata. And just about every friggin Toyota or Lexus had its headlights off. Almost all of the Lexus were ES models. edit: We passed 12 accidents yesterday Goober Peas fucked around with this message at 23:28 on Sep 24, 2018 |

64bit_Dophins posted:Don't most late model Lexusi have automatic headlights? I think all of those cars have stalk mounted headlight controls with 'auto' as a middle position. Altima's stalk for example:  Pair that design with DRLs and backlit gauges and most people never realize their lights are actually off.

64bit_Dophins posted:Ahh interesting - the only car I've driven with automatic headlights was my dad's 2009 BMW 335d and that's set to automatic by default (far left position on the dial). Nissan (and Hyundai) have pretty much taken up all of the rental car slack that GM and Ford used to do. So there are a lot of used ones on the road.

I've had a Dell all-in-one color laser that has bulletproof for years. The OEM toner is pricey but I found a local goon who keeps me well stocked for 1/4 of the cost and have had no quality issues.
