Not the military - yet. That will be an even bigger bloodbath.

Ugh mercator getting us all in trouble again

I figured that’s what you thought. To be fair, using Microsoft also makes me want to kms. Luckily I don’t have to.

Kms is key management services.

Why massgrave is called that, I have no idea.

I’m gonna guess (and could be wrong) that your partner is doing it to relieve the tension but libido is too low to perform sexually. Masturbating alone can be easier to accomplish in this case.

He might be trying to avoid losing the erection while literally inside you because that just feels bad for both of you

Idk, I stay away from it for a day and my libido is back.

Haven’t been on antidepressants but there was a time I was suffering under soulcrushing stress. For months, my libido just wasn’t there. Porn just doesn’t compare to that.

Here’s the link OP didn’t know how to add

TEHU

Ios lets you mark a Bluetooth device as a car stereo and it stops doing that. Maybe other device types too. Just make sure it’s not set as headphones.

I’m sure Android has a way out too

Mm well that depends on how you define right in the middle of. You might be looking for a median dish instead.

It’s disgusting that this is a thing, though I do think we all get judged by appearance in most interactions with strangers. Women probably more than men of course.

How far past D we talking here? Just so I know to make sure never to accidentally fall in love with a woman whose boobs are specialty consultant bra big

Second time here. First was a post about ICE so I figured hey, maybe a crypto enthusiast.

Nope, this is just a shill, probably a bot at that.

The neutswap thing must be the scam they’re hoping to promote. 7% a week would what, 33x your input in a year? Yeah fucking right.

If you had the facelift with the LED DRLs, that would’ve been the superior 239 hp one and if you had a pre-facelift 3.0 tdi, that would’ve been either 230 or 224 (ish) hp.

I can’t say I’m a huge fan of the Tiptronic either, but I do like its longevity and relative simplicity if I need to rebuild it. In a BMW it would be possible to flash it for higher line pressure and faster shifts, but unfortunately not the case for Audi.

For my next car I’m looking to ideally get something with an 8HP or 9G-Tronic box. Aisin 8 speed as a backup option. Haven’t actually driven either of those 8-speeds somehow, but I had a W205 C-class with 9G for over 2 years and it was sublime. Kicking down even 4 gears at once was quick as hell and outside of sport+ you couldn’t ever feel any of the shifts, even though they were always quick

ChatGPT didn’t gaslight a guy into killing his mom. A mentally ill man killed his mom. If a fucking chatbot is the thing that triggered it, then anything could have.

ChatGPT provided encouragement to do it, claiming it analyzed the description of a situation and the mother is an imminent danger to his life. If a human being does that, they’re accessory to murder. If OpenAI does, it’s fine. If OpenAI can’t be held responsible for the things ChatGPT says, ChatGPT shouldn’t be allowed to be offered to the public. Same for all other LLMs of course.

The “safeguards” you want in place are not feasible because you want them to account for people with mental illness, or people so stupid that something else would have killed them first.

I don’t want safeguards in place, I want this bullshit to not exist. Why are we accelerating climate change for THIS? Or on a more selfish level: Why do I now have to pay 5x as much for RAM because of THIS? It’s not useful for anything where being wrong is an issue. Most art production is being replaced by worthless slop.

Just fucking ban GenAI altogether if it can’t be prevented from giving advice that kills you or generating nudes of kids.

Hell, these days if ChatGPT gives you bad advice on drug dosage and you go google it to make sure, the results there are going to be AI too. First the AI summary, then most content everywhere else is generated by LLMs too… You literally can’t trust anything on the Internet anymore, yay.

Yea but the product that’s pretending to be a super smart conversational partner that can give you advice, should not tell you how to kill yourself. Or advise you to kill your family members. Yeah that happened, ChatGPT gaslit a guy into killing his mom.

It’s just not a product that should be available if safeguards don’t work.

Tbf the 230hp diesel isn’t great. If I hadn’t bought this thing for under 2000 EUR in a pinch, I would’ve preferred the 239 hp (176 kW) version. Better fuel economy, more torque, little bit more reliable chain tensioner. Or quite honestly, I would’ve preferred BMW or MB’s inline 6 diesel engines.

But mine’s still going strong at 400k km, original chains AFAIK. Transmission stopped working altogether 2 weeks ago. Opened it up and saw a 2007 date on the filter. NEVER changed before, fluid was probably original too. Changed the mechatronic seals (14€), transmission fluid and filter (~180€) and it behaves like new. I was very sure I’d have to rebuild the transmission. I’ve done about 20k km on it myself so far.

My only gripes: Would prefer the newer engine variant from the facelift; Would prefer a manual transmission.

As for snow - I don’t know, I haven’t been able to get it stuck. We’ve got a whole bunch of snow here in Estonia this winter, but the plows are working fine and the ability to raise it has been nice. I have exceptionally good studded winter tires fitted too.

I’ve also had a 4matic car which performed pretty decently in snow, but not as good as Quattro. But then I’ve done mild off roading in snow with FWD cars too lol, key is great winter tires, skill and (this is important) patience.

If I could have a Levorg with the turbo engine AND a manual transmission, I’d prefer it over the Audi any day of the week, fuel economy be damned. Unfortunately I don’t see any turbo models on sale here and apparently they were never made with manual transmission :(

I guess for anyone buying the car new, the CVT likely wouldn’t be an issue. I just don’t have faith in them lasting long term. And I like to buy my cars used and depreciated.

That’s not a company’s product giving you advice.

No company should sell a product that tells you different ways to kill yourself. User being stupid isn’t an excuse. Always assume user is a gullible idiot.

I love/hate Subaru

They’ve never had a good diesel engine. The one they did have would split crankshafts IIRC.

Their petrol engines are pretty boring unless turbocharged… And in Europe they don’t do a lot of turbos outside of the WRX and STI models

Oh and CVT longevity kinda sucks too

But on the other hand, the AWD is excellent, Outback as a taller but not too tall wagon was very comfy (now it’s a crossover sadly), especially in the slightly tallet USDM version. Etc.

My ex got our Outback and I replaced it with the cheapest available A6 Allroad. Much better vehicle in all but reliability though in its defense it has twice the kilometers and is 6 years older (2007 vs 2013). Better driving dynamics, fuel economy, comfort, and ride height can be low or high. Also has a traditional autobox.
