Probably. The funny part is that I looked up the rich/lean difference and what I saw made it look like running rich would have been the thing to say. Stupid Google.

It’s 1998 and I’m in Houston trying to convince my mom to buy me a new car to replace my beaten (but sadly missed, now) 1986 Nissan 200SX. I get the feeling she might be able to give me about three grand if I made the right pitch, so I start checking out Houston’s plethora of sleazy looking used car dealerships. And…

My guess is that the car was running so rich for so long it was overheating the combustion chamber and that’s what did the damage.

Sadly no pictures, but I have a fun (and #@$@ing expensive) story along these lines.

That’s about two thirds of what they really need to be doing, yes. If the industry gets smart enough to partner up with each other and develop a single charging standard and a plan to deploy a network together, Tesla could find itself rather fucked in a hurry if the other manufacturers pull it off quickly.

I feel like so many people don’t understand the most fundamental part of the Tesla situation: Anyone can make an electric powertrain, but it’s hard to make a *car*. I’ve been saying other companies will catch up, and fast. They are. Once they crack the nut of fast charging, Tesla won’t have any advantages aside from…

I would?

That looks like a super-early design test for the Pinto. The name even lines up. The headlights have a similar look complete with the body panel being streamlined behind them, and if you imagine the cabin being moved forward and given a hatch I think you’re pretty damn close to a 1971 Pinto.

I’ve got a Z in my garage that still won’t run after it’s *last* engine-out repair. Supposedly no air bubbles in the radiator, supposedly no problem with the water pump, but it will *not* cool down once it’s put in gear. Idles forever without overheating, but put that automatic transmission in gear and forget it, it’s…

I just searched to see if I could find any numbers for worker injury at another American automotive company like Ford and it turns out I came up with something rather interesting. People like you claim this stuff is common and that there’s nothing out of place, but this article paints a *very* interesting picture of…

If there’s a pipe leaking biological waste onto a production floor, that line better *stop* because that’s the definition of a high risk health hazard.

I know three people who work at the Sparks Gigafactory, and out of the three, they all have 12 hour shifts. Two of them are overnights from 6PM-6AM and one of the three is already looking for other work after a pretty short time there. I’ve heard stories about line managers being complete idiots and not knowing how to…

Bethesda would earn serious brownie points if they went ahead and hired Obsidian to just plain co-develop Fallout 5 or at least major expansions to 76. As a series fan, it always sucked to hear that they lost a bonus by one damn metacritic point and that was entirely because they got rushed on a super tight deadline…

How do you say “Y’all are brutalizin’ me!” in Canadian?

My first thought was “That looks like my Santa Fe Sport in red.” right down to the rear side windows having the same upward angle.

Bethesda would be such a great company to hate if only they actually acted shitty toward actual gamers instead of (to me anyhow) actually delivering what we keep saying we want.

As others have said... yes, yes it does. Code is copyrighted, and this code was work for hire which means Bethesda/Zenimax owns it.

I see large trucks in accidents fairly often here in northern Nevada, but the problem isn’t necessarily that the trucks themselves *get*in accidents, it’s that the reduction in visibility and road awareness they cause other drivers - needlessly IMO is the major safety concern. If I’m driving my Santa Fe Sport, I can…

Nope. Daily driver monster pickups are a safety hazard, they block visibility, are terrible for the environment, are rarely ever used for the intended purpose when used as a daily, and just plain make the roads a less safe place to be by being an obstruction to other vehicles. Also the owners are often dicks, as…

This really does seem like a strange omission. Google Play music supports five users in the same “household” but doesn’t seem to care about whether there’s a matching address or not. The music selection is pretty broad, I’ve almost never found a song they don’t have that’s ever been professionally mastered and made…
