I lightly chuckled.
Dead Eskimos and the Pope? Heckuva thing you got going on there dude, obviously you've got better weed than I do.Quote:

Yeah, not sure I buy the reasoning that because the car might not start every 100,000th time or whatever that it's bad technology.
If I sit stationary in traffic for long enough, the ASS will turn the car back on (without any action by me). Doesn't seem like a particularly complicated bit of programming.
Dunno about ASS, but the remote start with auto-shutoff on my Chevy half ton works just fine. Don’t think the tech is all that much different.
I don’t worry about turning the vehicle off at traffic lights, but drive-thru’s or other such stop and start traffic, you bet. Haven’t stalled a vehicle since learning to drive dad’s ‘81 Toyota (carbureted) pickup.
ASS can be rough on batteries, it has to use juice for every start and unless you mix in some long cruises the alternator often can't keep up with use.If you mainly use your car around town and there's traffic you're putting a hurt on the battery.

Again, bullshit. The CCA's of modern batteries are more than adequate to fire off a 4 banger at every traffic light in Manhattan. Also, I have yet to be in a car with ASS that doesn't have a decent handle on where the capacity is and thereby defeating the system if necessary.Quote:

Can't you get a dimmer switch compatible with LEDs? I thought the issue with dimming was generally the switch, not the fixtures themselves...Quote:

You can also buy a complete retro led trim with light built in. The shitty thing with those is when the led dies you have to throw the whole trim piece out. Wasteful af, but thats more norm than not now. We're going backwards. Thanks ObamaQuote:

Hah. Just spent a dry frozen week at Altabird. Drove to Truckee from RNO at 1 am in a fucking slush storm. At least there was minimal traffic except for the 3 identical semis that seemed to be having a contest to see who could spin out first while their spray blinded any car unfortunate enough to be driving a sane speed next to them as they passed.Quote:

I think the problem was your expectation that people can actually read.

Poison oak annoys me. Didn't touch any that I know of recently but ended up with a big patch of rash on one arm. There must have been some PO oil on the cuff on an old pair of gloves I wore a few days ago doing trail work.
