Earlier last month I had my car's fuel pump go out and didn't have it for 2 weeks. The guys at the dealership said that the computer needed an update and they did that. My dad was driving it back home and my car died on him on the freeway. Thankfully he was able to pull to the side of the road without getting into an accident. They towed it back and then that's when they said it was the fuel pump. I was annoyed that I didn't have my car but everything is back to normal now. She runs like new now pretty much. Took her on a road trip to Nevada where she ran good and I ended up fixing my MPG by 1 from the trip lmao
I'm going to wait until next month I think before buying any new mods. A guy from work told me I should get some fuel injectors which I've been looking into. After that it's definitely time for a new throttle body and then the tune. All of this is going to be really pricey and judging by how things at work have been, I might have to wait even longer before I can acquire all of this.
God dang stitched up on the diagnosis. You’d think the techs would do a road test and run a scan to check for codes before returning it. If you’re going bigger injectors car might need to be tuned to accommodate the upgrade, but I dunno how adaptive modern ECUs are compared to old school.

Stock suspension is getting tired after 22 years of life. Also Australian roads are shithouse so the car has always felt super rough and bumpy when driving as the suspension is quite stiff (since Japan actually puts some level of care into their asphalt surfaces).
Getting a good deal on a Tein Super Street/G4 Racing front/rear combo. This should be the last thing I do before converting the body. Got a GT-R rear half cut lined up for body panels and other parts that should complete everything I need for widebody goodness. Looking forward to seeing how it looks afterward tbh

Melbourne got like 8 suburbs locked down again because nobody was following social distancing after restrictions eased, leading to like 100 new cases in the city overnight

Thinking of updating my PC soon once I’ve got my car at a point I’m happy with. Currently got one I built myself in 2011 amd it was good for its time, but horribly outdated now and I doubt it even has the specs to run half the games released in the last 5 years.
Been feeling the itch to get back into Halo and tryhard on H3.

1991 Gibson Motorsport R32 GT-R. Singlehandedly ended Group A in Australia it was that good. Only after setting the highest ever speed recorded in that discipline.

It turns out people want $2000 for the triple gauge cluster I posted earlier. Found that out after offering a dude $350 for his and he started acting like I’d just banged his wife. So I decided fuck it and stretched to a GT-R MFD instead. This bad boy is from a V-Spec II with the Nismo V2 upgrades, it features all the bells and whistles. Should be installed in the next few weeks once parts come in to make a custom loom. Pictures show test fitting where triple cluster was. Sits well on GT-T brackets, which leads me to believe it was planned to be fitted to a 1998 model initially (R34 GT-Rs weren’t made until ‘99). pretty pleased with it tbh

The porting fails to take into account some engine-specific character traits like H2 Hunters being immune to Melee damage, but it’s neat nonetheless. CE Sword Zealots are dumb overpowered.

Dunno if you guys have been keeping up, but Smash has been cleaning house on predators lately. It’s been wild. Cinnpie, Keitaro, ZeRo, Nairo, Anti, The Moon, Sky, DJ Nintendo, Xzax, D1 and others all been outed for Pedophilia/predatory behaviour. Shit’s wild.

I’ve actually made a tonne of progress on this since I posted; seeing a psych has helped in terms of understanding the mechanics of my panic attacks and what they mean. Essentially I just need to process some shit that went down way further back in my past every time I get in a bad headspace, which helps explain why I had such a hard time dealing with them in the first place. They tell me I can essentially be better and free from such a state of hyper vigilance within a month or so

Seemingly only a fraction of people that were outraged about Kavanaugh care about the Biden allegations.

https://www.nationalreview.com/2020/04/new-york-times-unequal-coverage-sexual-assault-allegations-against-joe-biden-brett-kavanaugh/
The links describe the very different reactions in media coverage but it can really be extended to everyone. All week I've been seeing progressives described as "privileged" for if they won't support Biden. We'll see if trying to cover this up and basically gaslighting their own voterbase will be a winning strategy.
tl;dr:
>Kavanaugh is accused of assault when he was a teenager
>National outrage
>Biden is accused of rape when he was a Senator
>Error 404: Not Found
Imagine wondering why conservatives don't trust the media.
Imagine wondering why conservatives don't care about issues like this.
But I guess the ends justify the means :-)
edit: great video:
Honestly from what I’ve seen of USpol in my news feed, it’s actually the biggest talking point among progressive voters. This is actually a big reason for the disillusion of Sanders dropping out, so I’m not expecting a DNC victory this time round.

I've grown to oppose universal health care. Our taxes would be much lower if it didn't exist.
I was under the impression the funding would come from closing loopholes big companies use to avoid paying taxes altogether. Unless your last name is Bezos you won’t notice a cent of difference in your tax.

There are some impressive wheelbarrows ITT. How do you people afford them? Loans or just saving for years? Were they new or used? How many previous owners? Are there mandatory vehicle inspections in the US to check for roadworthiness etc?
For me it was a combination of savings and a personal loan. It cost $10k in 2017. I’m finishing up repayments and even with interest the car has paid for itself, with Manual GT-T Coupes fetching $20-25k aud (not that I’m treating it as an investment lol). We only need a roadworthy certificate for initial registration, but another may be needed if you let the registration lapse by 3 months or you get issued with a defect notice. (used - manufactured in 1998)

I am also glad to hear that you are okay. I also would like to say that it was very smart to reach out to a psychologist in trying to sort out your problems. It was too late to fix things when I went to a councilor back in 2018 but I was at least able to make things somewhat right a year and a half later.
I’m glad you were able to at least help things to a degree. Hope things start going your way a lot quicker than my case.

I'm glad to hear that you're doing better, I had no idea. Stay strong.
Thanks my man, it’s really weird to talk about it after this time. But very relieving for some reason. The experience definitely made me grow a lot, but I can’t say I’d recommend it.

Things were different in 2014. I remember logging back in to b.net earlier that year after a hiatus from the reach days to check out what the hype was about surrounding destiny. No surprises the forum for the game itself was an absolute shitshow and I was instantly turned off the game by its prospective community, but Offtopic was pretty cool and I found myself becoming a regular. Nearly everyone was a familiar name and I had a pretty cool group of friends to have a group chat with, including the resident 5-year old Ender. Memes were aplenty and I can honestly say the community as a whole had a really nice vibe to it.
I was 18 and unemployed at the time, so I had all the time in the world to surf Offtopic to my heart’s content. I was in all of the biggest groups on the site and enjoyed reading countless shitposts and drama from the usual suspects at the time. Even the trolling seemed to have a creative edge to it, and I was sad to see it all go the moment the July update dropped around the launch of the Destiny Beta. Usernames disappeared, never to be seen again and groups fragmented. During the teething problems of this group when it was on Proboards I became convinced it was some concotion of the worst of bungie’s toxicity for a time (mostly in part due to everyone labelling sep7 as traitors for some dumbass reason) but signing up pretty quickly dispelled that feeling. The users who crept back in to offtopic after its silent period were the biggest fuckheads in existence and I’m convinced 2 of them in particular are singlehandedly behind the worst of the later site updates (such as needing a destiny account just to post there now).
Fast forward to 2015 and I think I made the biggest mistake of my life. I was playing Mario Kart 8 and after a series of cheesy losses, I fell into the habit of hitting myself in the head when I was angry. This culminated in breaking a GamePad over my head hard enough to see nothing but red as it impacted my skull, dazing myself for 5 minutes (I am fully aware self harm of this manner is NEVER okay) and I haven’t been the same since. While there was no sign of injury to my head or brain, that moment marked a tipping point where I began to have anxiety attacks of an intensity I’d never experienced before, and still do to this day. For about 8 months this was a nightly ocurrence. I would develop a migrane, then worry I’d caused permanent brain damage or gotten a neurodegenerative disease and I was fully convinced in that headspace that I could never function again. I felt I had a really hard time thinking, I constantly lost trains of thought and got migranes really easily.
It went away for a bit and, while shit went sideways in a completely different way, late 2016-2017 were pretty normal years in terms of headspace for me. Around 2018 I found even seeing the word ‘Dimentia’ written on a pamphlet briefly brought that panic straight back and convinced me I had something like that. Co-workers always asked me what was up because one day I could be talkative, and completely silent the next. The real kicker was I wasn’t aware of what this panic was really about, so when I zoned in I couldn’t even tell what was wrong. Talking to a psychologist was helpful, but again our conversations never got to what I saw as the big issue.
2019 was a similar story in terms of mental health, but I was able to keep such instances brief, even if I was more zoned out than usual I was able to function pretty normally at work and make life decisions and plans. The Panic attacks still happened but on a milder level and passed quickly, in part thanks to getting a brain scan and being told everything is normal on that front. Earlier this year I’ve gotten comfortable with existing with this, and zeroed in on what sets me off. It’s hard to put it in to words even now, but basically I’ve come to terms with the concept of having such a disease as a workaround for my anxiety not letting me believe that I’m actually fine. And I feel better fams. Like, not 100% but I feel more like my old self than I have at any point in the last 5 years, and I just want to say I’m glad to be a part of sep7agon. Browsing this place can really take your mind off introspective worries sometimes, and I hope you’re doing well too.

is warzone firefight still kinda cheap? i remember the bosses have ludicrous amounts of health
then again, it might be because people didnt like to use reqs in ff
Yeah you can still get mega cheesed by enemies spawning in while you’re trying to kill a boss and legit everything can one-hit you, especially Promethians or Banshees. The 30 second respawn timer is the dumbest addition I’ve ever seen too. I’ve died so many times to peeking a Knight with an incineration cannon when they pre-fired a fully charged shot.
Aside from that even Solo Queue you should make it through 99% of the games you play, more people are willing to use good reqs than in 2016. Mind you I only play heroic
Have you completed the CP? Do you want to do some co-op?
I’d be down. I’ve completed it twice solo but never co-op

A lot of people do; I’m in a few groups where the left leaning members expressed disillusionment at Sanders withdrawing his campaign and Biden being the Democrat candidate. They pretty much all said they’re just not going to vote, their main reasoning being the allegations.
