Also, I'm going to ping @clamhurt_legbeard.

Sometimes, capitalization is important. I love the font choice, but when someone types i8 into a title, it should probably show as lowercase. I'm CSS illiterate, or at least too lazy to load developer tools in Firefox.

First, what are your thoughts regarding this? Second, is it worth the effort to change it, when it's probably never going to be an issue that causes serious confusion?

clamhurt_legbeard ago

problem solved

as for me being a mod

i only just freed up a mod slot a couple days ago

thats why i had you do my alt for designer lol

TheBuddha ago

LOL I had to free one up for this sub too. I'll go ahead and rescind the invite.

It's not like there's anything to moderate. 'Snot like I give a shit enough to delete or ban.

clamhurt_legbeard ago

lol

i had a free slot

TheBuddha ago

I'll not be even remotely offended if you someday resign for a useful sub!

My goal is to build the foundations for a good automotive community on Voat. It's actually coming along better than I expected. I'm surprised in a good way.

clamhurt_legbeard ago

useful

i moderate very few useful subs

im a designer on a couple useful subs and moderator on v/thegunclub

everything else is shitposting lol

TheBuddha ago

I don't expect this sub to be very useful, though I suppose I could do an 'ask a mechanic' thread, except I'm not actually a mechanic. It's not like someone else is going to step up and do it.

Hmm... Maybe a weekly ask an autotive question thread...

clamhurt_legbeard ago

my ac clutch wont go

tell me how to make it do go

TheBuddha ago

Replace it.

See? I'm helpful!

clamhurt_legbeard ago

inorite

TheBuddha ago

I've never once had that problem, so I'm not going to pretend I can help. I've replaced a compressor and I've recharged working AC systems.

I drove my tractor!!!

clamhurt_legbeard ago

it wouldnt let me recharge it

im puzzled

TheBuddha ago

What's it doing or, conversely, not doing?

clamhurt_legbeard ago

i click the refill nozzle on

i push the trigger

the pressure jumps up to like 160psi instantly

instructions say make sure ac compressor clutch is engaged

if not maybe its low on gas so keep refilling it

but it wont go

i havent bought a repair manual yet so im just going off youtube

TheBuddha ago

I have a stupid question.

Is the car powered on and the AC turned on, and to max, when you try to charge it?

clamhurt_legbeard ago

Yup. AC set to max with engine running but not actually engaging clutch, while I click the nozzle on and try to put gas in.

Stupid questions often reveal easy answers.

I wish you'd ask a stupid question I didn't think of.

TheBuddha ago

I suspect it's seized or just plain worn out. Again, I'm not a mechanic.

Do you have a "Pick and Pull?" What vehicle is this on? (Make, model, year, and probably engine size are important.)

clamhurt_legbeard ago

ya thats what im wondering too

we have a number pick a parts around

its an f150

itll be easy to replace

TheBuddha ago

Oh, fuck yeah. There will even be a broad range of years that they used that specific setup. You'll have no problem finding a replacement for cheap.

LOL I have a buddy in PCB, FL that owns a Pick N Pull. I've spent all sorts of time there, playing with the equipment and smashing cars in the crusher. I have to do it on the weekends and after hours, 'cause they expect people to be quick. Not me... I enjoy watching 'em get smooshed and just smashing stuff for my own amusement.

clamhurt_legbeard ago

lol

good stuff man

ive never smashed a car on purpose lol

TheBuddha ago

Oh, it's awesome. First, I get to smash 'em with a giant tractor type of deal with forks on it, then I put 'em in the crusher.

zyklon_b ago

thats not harvestor of sorrow....

TheBuddha ago

Nope. Had you heard it before? I've shared it a couple of times in the guitar thread. It's kinda rednecky, which you might appreciate. It was even done in a real studio and with a real sorta sound engineer.

I got paid in room and board for coming up and recording on that album, and I got paid in beer. The band had been in MA, but relocated to Maine. I was still living in MA, and came up to do the studio work for two of their albums. I trundled my way back to Cambridge with a trunk full of beer, as I recall. I'm pretty sure my pockets were laden with 'Maine skunk' as well.

zyklon_b ago

i had not heard it but yeah was rednecky and very entertaining. production of song was good.

beer and weed is our friend

TheBuddha ago

LOL I've done a surprising amount of studio work in exchange for drugs and alcohol.

zyklon_b ago

im making reservations for big cedar lodge at branson righr now...woohoo. you wanna meet me there?

TheBuddha ago

When? I also have no idea where that is. Chances are, I won't have time.

TheBuddha ago

zyklon_b ago

TheBuddha ago

zyklon_b ago

TheBuddha ago

It's good that she wants to go, yes?

zyklon_b ago

Of course is good. it shamez me the way i have not been there

TheBuddha ago

Maybe you can use this as a start to get her to maybe spend some weekends and stuff like that?

zyklon_b ago

she already spends the weekends unless im too far.into amphetamine psychosis

TheBuddha ago

That has to have changed. You'd told me otherwise, unless I was high and completely invented that in my head.

zyklon_b ago

naw ma just dont let her come over due to crazy shit of i am too spun out

TheBuddha ago

Does your mother have parental rights?

zyklon_b ago

temporary guardianship

TheBuddha ago

Do you still also have parental rights?

I'm not sure how the system is there, thus my questions.

I'll also be a bit responding. The sun is out for a few minutes. Well, at the very least it isn't raining.

zyklon_b ago

no rights

TheBuddha ago

I drove my tractor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

zyklon_b ago

Robbed?

zyklon_b ago

TheBuddha ago

Hmm.. Okay?

zyklon_b ago

its not okay but i gotta be sick for a month due to only having 10 mg hydrocodone a day

TheBuddha ago

The "okay" was in relation to your not being able to discuss it.

zyklon_b ago

i will in private some day. too enraging at thr moment.

TheBuddha ago

I would be livid if someone stole my meds. I need those meds.

Granted, I get more than I need and I may have elected to share a few here and there (I'm not admitting a damned thing in public) but I'd still be livid.

zyklon_b ago

whats bad is they were not even abused just flushed to make me suffer....

TheBuddha ago

No need to say anymore. I've got it.

zyklon_b ago

TheBuddha ago

Understood. Need me to delete mine?
