Not even an old mechanical carburetor has a linear response
ShankShill@sh.itjust.worksto 196@lemmy.blahaj.zone•I have a mouth and I must ruleEnglish3·21 days agoI had a wallpaper on my super cheap budget PC build in days of yore in this style of great value packaging.
It had the logo, white background, said desktop wallpaper, 1920x1080 resolution, had a picture of a monitor the same model as mine, and the bottom corner said keep frozen.
I found it blinding and hilarious.

That’s also been my experience on multiple systems. But one thing that’s seemingly inevitable for me with Arch, things will eventually become flaky and I cannot solve it without a reinstall.
For instance, when I first got my RX 9070XT on a 3 year old arch install, it worked great. Then Cyberpunk would crash the graphics driver, but only during the benchmark or moving around. 3 months later there was no change. Bought a new PSU cuz I was running one 100w under spec (PowerSpec 650w bronze… bought a Corsair RM1000x) and nope.
I eventually got fed up and decided to go the immutable route. Works great again.

The 2nd time I drove straight back to the dealership since I was nearby and they scanned again without shutting the car off and still showed no issue. All I know is it’d act like it was in neutral for about 2 minutes. Then it’d barely creep forward even at 4000 rpm. Going to park and back to drive didn’t help. Restarting the car didn’t help. After about 10 minutes of slowly getting better, it’d be back to normal.
ShankShill@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Tesla Robotaxi Stops Mid-Intersection After Running a Red Light… The Influencer Onboard Calls It “Impressive”English421·1 month agoNot related to self driving, but other shitty car design.
I had a Nissan with a CVT before it was widely known they were garbage. I hit the brakes to avoid someone that ran a red, and the CVT went in to some protection mode and left me and my family stuck in the middle of the intersection for 2 entire light cycles before it’d move again.
Dealership just kept saying it’s fine and it was protecting the CVT from damage after going from throttle to brake quickly. I don’t give a fuck about the CVT, I care about the squishy bits inside the cabin.
After it did that again and the power windows stopped working the same day, I traded it in for a Mazda with a proper transmission. 248k miles later it’s still great.

Sinclair Microvision MTV-1. It doesn’t work though. First released about 1978 according to Wikipedia.
Found it in a thrift store in a small town with a single stop light, in the middle of nowhere. That’s also where I got my sealed copy of Microsoft Flight Simulator 3.0 on 5 1/4 floppies. Total cost $7.

I got home and saw some pills and a demolished bottle on the ground. Vet tech friend said to induce vomiting with hydrogen peroxide.
Didn’t have any of that, but I did have some minty mouthwash with peroxide and no xylitol in it. Dog willingly drank it, puked with foam, drank a bit more, puked more foam, then I dug through the mess.
No pills or any sign of the color on the pills. She’s still kicking.
