- Comment on Hyundai car requires $2000, app & internet access to fix your brakes - what the actual f 3 hours ago:
For us technician? It’s a very quick work. For you guys? It’s an additional 30min per side, give or take, and for a job that you’ll be only doing once per few years if you don’t drift. Rear brake wear significantly slower than the front, and this is a rear brake issue. That’s the drama. You guys are crying about additional work for something that you do once a few years.

Well maybe not all, but how many out of that 1 model have that maintenance mode? I work on many, none of them have it. Honda, toyota, subaru, vw, even chinese brand like geely, all required a scan tool. The good news? A generic scan tool is enough to set it, doesn’t have to be an expensive proprietary tool made just for that specific model that come with those bs. The bad news? Car maker only release it to aftermarket scanner after a few years or so, like the hyundai ionic 5 here.
And even then, like i said, you can just unbolt the motor and turn the piston. 20 years in this industry, this is the first time there’s this much drama on basic shit like this.

Yeah, i watched the video and the dude just yap and yap and yap non-stop, and the actual content is only at the front of it.
That trick works with all EPB, you can also take off the motor and turn the mechanism yourself, that’s how all backyard mechanic does it for every car with EPB without buying the tools meant for workshop. There’s nothing special to it. Dude could’ve save a lot by send it to dealership instead.

- Comment on If every video game was to be destroyed but you had the chance to save five games, what would you choose to save? 2 days ago:
Based on my currently highest time spend in the game, in no particular order: Terraria, Dark Souls 3, Factorio + expansion, Stardew Valley.
The last one kinda depend on some caveat: Fallout 4(assuming mods also survived), Project Zomboid(if the dev will still working on it), or dying light(assuming some mods also survived). Else Prey 2017.

What is the actual baseline for american to at least afford a cheap house and live a just-ok life, assuming you’re single? As in you can afford food, transport, and just tiny bit of saving? I’ve been hearing that it’s bad, but not sure how bad it is.

- Comment on Me when Valve releases a phone 1 week ago:
What the other comment said. Since Valve is already half way there with their Steam Frame version of SteamOS(which run on ARM architecture, where phone and tablet also use) and Linux phone iirc do exists, it’s only a matter on how much futher Valve wanna go. So as of now they “technically” already have half a steam phone.
- Comment on Me when Valve releases a phone 1 week ago:
Isn’t Steam Frame run in SteamOS made for ARM chip?
While there likely won’t be a steam phone, it technically exists as of now.
- Comment on Vacations don't fix your life because your brain treats time off like a free trial of being the person you want to be 1 week ago:
Vacay is the time you stop worrying about your work in order to lower your stress level, not a time to pick up a new habit. Habit cannot be pick up in a week, it need to be build and sustained for years. Vacation is best if you just enjoy what in front of you and let Albert picking up his fucking slack and not suffer the hell he put you in year round.
- Comment on While we eagerly await the second coming of Steam Machines, it's worth remembering what a gloriously awful mess Valve got itself in over a decade ago 1 week ago:
It is. “From failed product to global success” will also drum up a positive vibe about this particular hardware. What i meant by it is it doesn’t really matter if the previous iteration is a failure, what people really care and what’s important is the current iteration and what Valve learn from their past mistake, and the marketing team of Valve know exactly that. It’s marketing after all, turning negative vibe to positive one is part of the marketing strategy.
- Comment on While we eagerly await the second coming of Steam Machines, it's worth remembering what a gloriously awful mess Valve got itself in over a decade ago 1 week ago:
Does it matter though? You can put it as a failure that got so bad Valve eventually cancel it, or you can put it as a product that got good from countless iteration. Its kinda like glass half empty half full kind of situation which eventually doesn’t really matter.

- Comment on Goodnight sweet prince 1 week ago:
It’s great for up to 3 person household, as using convection oven mean slower cooking time. I could do roasted potato for under 15 min(not including the boiling part), but for convection oven it’s gonna be 45min or more. The small size and the way hot air directly blow at the food makes it a superior cooking ware for small portion.
The result of the food also closer to deepfry than baking. Though it’s not gonna be as crisp as deepfry, but it’s also not gonna be as dry as oven bake.
