jazzyhattrick posted:Reddit is the Sebastian Vettel of internet posting, whereas SA is more like Jos Verstappen in that very few people born after the 90s are even aware it exists, and those who are only know about it because of its more successful offspring. I guess that would make 4chan the equivalent of Max. What's the F1 equivalent of that one bodybuilding thread where they couldn't count?

From what I understand from the arguments about cspam and from what gets posted in gbs it seems that anyone making 1 dollar more than the poster is bougie and deserves the guillotine, and that an awful lot of posters are really creepily into guillotine jokes. Also there was one who said they were talking 100% seriously, even when called out on guillotine "jokes" being creepy.

That’s a pretty concise summary, I could go on but ya that hits are the core of what’s wrong. I don’t think that feedback look of “look I’m right and the rest of the world deserves to die if they disagree” is particularly productive.

Worse than that, it's success means anything replacing it will inevitable follow it's template, and has ergo made all of human discourse and interaction online worse as a result. Vettel to /r/f1 is Lennart Poettering to /r/linux. You can't say a loving thing or they'll go apeshit.

The problem is they believe they are unquesionably right, which makes them terribly dreary even allowing for the fact they're tacitly aware of being wrong about absolutely everything. Idealogues in the thrall of failed ideologies are all pretty similar.

don't post about guillotines unless you're willing to follow through on it imo, and if you're willing to follow through on it you'd probably best keep quiet before someone puts you on a list

Gonna do a remake of Animal farm where at the end instead of the pigs playing cards with the humans they’re making a podcast that pulls in $160k a month off of patreon by parroting variations on “kill the rich” and none of the other animals on the farm are will to acknowledge the irony but instead diligently listen and applaud every word they say.

i went to my lockup to see if my car would start after sitting for 3 months and either the battery was dead or i just left it disconnected and I noticed that almost all the tyres are flat which probably means all the valves in these wheels are poo poo which I kinda suspected so i ordered a ryobi cordless inflator and another battery hopefully they get here on monday

# ? May 24, 2020 01:15 |

the battery is the wrong size, which I found out just after I bought the exact same wrong battery again cuz when I took the battery out the previous owner from like 9 years ago put the wrong battery in it and just propped it up with some bits of angle iron to prop it up at the right height. i honestly don't know how it never fell off those two bits of metal after 6 years of trackdays(bro)

I forget what car it was but there definitely was a car where I had the wrong size battery but just spaced it out with some off cuts of 2x4s.

the guy who owned my car before me had a gigantic subwoofer in the passenger seat, also every speaker was blown and the coilovers it came on were wound down right to the bottom. he'd removed the subwoofer before selling it tho, it also had 'the shocker' sticker on the rear bumper which immediatly came off i probably shouldnt've bought it but I made him do a compression test on it which is what I cared about most and I had an entire suspension from the car i'd just broken for parts so eh

I spent all day trying to clean out and reseal the expansion joints in my driveway only to run out of both backer rod and sealant not even like a third of the way through, then learn - through three trips to various hardware stores - that apparently every single person in Western Pennsylvania is doing the exact same project because all the supplies I need are sold out. Car is fine though.

When I got the Scirocco it was lowered by taking a hacksaw to the springs. I threw some cheap coil overs at it which I proceeded to blow out my first TSD event lol.

We've been gardening and I'm taking my wife's car to the glorious capitalist cathedral that is Costco next week to get new tires installed. I also mowed the yard today with my cool/good Swedish lawnmower powered by a cool/good single cylinder Honda engine.

I finally finished building 2 Bar Top MAME machines for my kids, and then built a Box/Shelf thing to put on top of my TV unit at the other end of my house to give me space to put all the old consoles I have. Was given an old Original XBOX the other day so I've proceeded to mod it, upgrade the hard drive, and load it with games and emulators. I should do some gardening but its coming into winter here and there is so much overgrown stuff I just cannot be bothered, may just go the lazy route and pay a gardener to come clean it all up for me. I don't do anything car related anymore after selling my previous car and getting a sensible family car.

Would Bilsteins spec’d for my car be stiffer than a set of KYBs or would I need to look for a different strut spec? A set of B6s would be cool, but I’d like to know more of what I’d get out of them.

My day was studying for the CFA exam in the morning, rode my motorbike to the bike shop to receive a $50 gift card, go to the grocery store. I took my dog to the dog park and now I’m loving around on my tiny synth while enjoying a beer from the brewery down the street from me.

If I was going to do any car racing for those I’d reach for them straight away.

lmao 'oh 81 new posts I wonder what breaking f1 news just happened' I guess at least you've stopped talking about loving pans. In F1 related discussion, I've been enjoying the old races their sticking up on YouTube. I was pretty young in the 90s and remember watching a few races but aside from the big names I missed most of their actual careers. It's not a great selection but I appreciate it.

If I was going to do any car racing for those I’d reach for them straight away. Bilstein do market the B6 as a "performance upgrade" over OEM shocks and struts, so it looks like I'm set. My other options are B8s which are to be paired with lowering springs or three sets of their coil overs (B12, B14, B16). Full Collapse fucked around with this message at 03:51 on May 24, 2020 |

Ya there’s the B6 and the B8. I don’t remember which one is better but you want the one that doesn’t lower the ride height. For the Scirocco the front struts were an inverted design which helped with the heavy duty poo poo
