  • The brightness is one thing but also the alignment. These people install new headlights or the manufacturers just do not adjust the lights alignment correctly at all.

    I installed entire new headlight assemblies in my car upgrading from weak stock crap bulbs to LEDs with running lights, but I FUCKING ADJUSTED THEM afterwards.

    If I am ~50 feet from a wall there is a hard line where the top of my lights do not shine. That line is purposely placed so it won’t shine until cars in front of me unless I am every far away from them or there is an elevation difference. Sitting behind a car at the lights my lights will cut off generally right below the top of the trunk of most sedan models.

    I have never seen a headlight that could not be adjusted up and down with a little screw. Maybe the newest cars need an app or something stupid but I would be willing to bet they can also be adjusted.







  • Honestly thank God.

    I was really worried about how this was only going to drag down Honda.

    I used to love Nissan. They made several of my dream cars.

    Unfortunately it’s been quite some time since they made anything very good imo.

    Currently have a reputation of meh reliability and meh driving experience.

    They don’t offer anything to entice someone away from Toyota or Honda.

    I hope Nissan can come back but idk how they do that without a serious overhaul of their whole business from the ground up.



  • First computer I ever used was probably some crusty old gateway with windows 95.

    I pretty much only had access to my parents old desktop computers until I hit highschool when they bought me some dell POS that could barely run cs 1.6 in windowed mode.

    First PC I built myself was a 770 and some first or second gen i7 that my buddy sold me for 20 bucks lol.

    Been building my own computer every few years since. I am currently on a 3080 and i7 10700k that I have overclocked on all cores to 5.2ghz.

    I’ll probably build a new system in a year or two when the 6000 series cards drop. I am foolishly hoping that Nvidia has some change of heart about pricing by then lol




  • I had two fairly old reddit accounts (10+ years and 100s or thousands of comments and post karma) get nuked without them giving me a reason. They just said I broke TOS. I appealed and asked what rule I broke and it was instantly denied. I still have no clue what rule I allegedly broke.

    I tried making a new account with a different email on a new device using a new Internet connection and it got banned after 30 minutes.

    Fuck reddit. Banning people and never giving them a reason or a chance to correct their mistake (if they even made one) is ludicrous.

    What are they gonna start a major war with? Their one “functional” 5th Gen “stealth” fighter that has the radar cross section of a Boeing 747 and no replacement parts?

    They gonna start shitting out t-34s again like it’s WW2?

    They have lost the majority of their best vehicles and their trained soldiers.

    If nukes didn’t exist they would already have been obliterated by now.



  • Yeah at some point you just say fuck it and limp along until the problem is big enough that it’s time for a completely new house or you move.

    In our situation it’s one of those things where it just doesn’t seem worth it to properly address because if we are gonna have an electrician cut a bunch of holes in our walls to redo all the wiring we may as well have a plumber cut a bunch of holes in our ceiling to insulate all the pipes they installed in the ceiling crawl space without any insulation. And if we have them cutting holes in every wall and every ceiling we may as we lost have them tear the whole goddamn house down and start over properly lol.
