Just because you are making 100k+, 250k+, or even 500k+ a yr doesn't mean you've made it. This is still earned income, not interest or dividends. A $2.5k+/month lux apartment or a leased BMW is not something you've "earned" as you are still in the rat race. Do not buy golden shackles. by Koolaid-Chugger in overemployed

Except if you want to, you can do both. I was on r/fire for awhile until it got exhausting being told I needed to hoard money like a dragon and never spend anything on anything at all. They take saving to an extreme that literally sucks the fun out of life.

Life is for living, I’m young and still have my mobility. Just last week I spent three days driving all over Big Sur in a brand new Aston, something the FIRE community would have screeched about. But I scratched an item off my bucket list and have the memories for a lifetime.

Company is "inviting" for a 1 week in office to meet each-other by Sovietyr in overemployed

[–]Mochashaft 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not all of us are subject to shitty ones.

I like both my teams and in the past year have been to Monterey, Lake Tahoe, New York City, and London. All paid for by the employer and had a great time.

My biggest complaint with the S650 center stack is that the Max AC button appears to be replaced with Max Defrost. Max AC will surely be on the touch screen, but still. That and the cool pilot switches are gone :/ by junkerz88 in Mustang

Good thing our cars don't have any missiles.

The HVAC controls are permanently at the bottom of the screen

The drive modes are still available via steering wheel buttons and the row of buttons just above the gearshift.

Are the screens integrated well? No not really, so I get the aesthetic complaint. But as far as functionality people are just whining to whine.

I was referring to all the whining people are doing about screens aren’t fighter jet inspired.

100% Agree, even living in hot ass Arizona. I hardly touch my climate controls at all.

I like the toggle switches in my current car, but the thing that stands out to me about the new car is how many fewer pieces there are. Buttons, trim, etc, all the shit that squeaked and rattled in my car is gone. I'll gladly take that over aesthetics.

Shhhh. From what I'm seeing here and on the forums, people are constantly adjusting their air conditioner every 5 minutes, and can't possibly use a digital button that's directly in their line of sight.

I had to remind the old folks at the mustang forum that unlike us car enthusiasts. Fighter Jets have modernized....

I get that people like the retro, but we've been playing that tune literally since 2005, it's okay to do something new.

Mercedes To Keep V8 Engine After 2030 If There's Enough Demand by stevennn__ in cars

[–]Mochashaft 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is super odd. But honestly Jalopniks reporting has been going downhill for awhile now so it wouldn't surprise me.

Mercedes themselves have confirmed that the 2023 C63 (that launches tomorrow I think) is a 4-cyl hybrid. All the prototypes and mules that are out running around are clearly 4-bangers as well.

Maybe they pull a switcharoo and put the V8 back after this first year but that would be a huuuuge slap in the face to anyone that buys the first ones.

Mercedes To Keep V8 Engine After 2030 If There's Enough Demand by stevennn__ in cars

[–]Mochashaft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm assuming it's an older article that they edited and that kicked the date.

The 4.0 "63" motor has been back for at least a year now, and the article mentions an SL63 is "coming" when it's already here. It also mentions "2023 C63 Coupe" when we already know the C coupe is dead and being replaced with the CLE in the coming months. This article is definitely talking about previous gen.

Here's the drivetrain for the upcoming model https://www.topgear.com/car-news/electric/official-new-amg-c63-will-be-4cyl-hybrid-electric-turbo

[–]Mochashaft 50 points51 points  (0 children)

That was the previous gen C63, when there was a brief pause put on those motors.

The upcoming C63 has already shown off its hybrid 4 drivetrain.

Although maybe they’ll do a V8 black series?

Why is everyone mad? by TheClassyWomanist in BlackPeopleTwitter

Who said you couldn’t? I’m gonna go check with the FAA to make sure I got the appropriate clearance since the point flew way over your head.

Why is everyone mad? by TheClassyWomanist in BlackPeopleTwitter

[–]Mochashaft 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Point me to where I mentioned Black anything. I was simply pointing out that I prefer to learn from and teach my partner(and honestly friends, colleagues, etc) based off of the experiences we don’t have in common.

That’s like… literally how learning and progress works irrespective of race, gender, religion, etc.

Also miss me with that “Oreo” bullshit. Tearing each other down based off “you’re black but not black enough” qualifiers sure as shit doesn’t help either.

I think what's even more interesting is the tribal hypocrisy that seems to be inherently built into literally every group.

We absolutely see people up in arms over both, its just always the inverse group. This whole "It's fine when we do it, but you can't" mentality is not helping anyone anywhere.

[–]Mochashaft 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Alternatively I enjoy being able to learn from, and teach, my partner via the fact that our life experiences were wholly different.

I'm not gonna learn or progress much talking to someone who had the same experience as me.

[–]Mochashaft 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s not gonna kill ADM’s. Dealers were still asking for crazy shit like this back in 2017 well before any supple chain issues.

Dealerships are cancerous middle men that need to be removed.

Not just the Tremec they’re gate keeping either. Dark Horse is the only one without the awkward thick-bottomed grille.

Most people that do this probably don’t fly often and don’t know when they will be called

A really wild solution to this is to.....wait until you're called.

Do you consider 2018+ S63 coupe to be “boring”? Considering it but is it worth the pricetag by [deleted] in AMG

[–]Mochashaft -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The seats on the vantage are superior. The infotainment system is a little lacking compared to the GT but it's a much more unique and fun car in my opinion.

Can someone please tell me what the fuck “east side Diego” means? For some reason that had me cracking up.

I tore my 17 apart and placed sound deadening foam underneath all of the cables, clips, etc. It's a whole different car now.

Where did the Super SUV Buyers come from? by RazingsIsNotHomeNow in cars

[–]Mochashaft 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I absolutely despised the G63 AMG until the precise second my foot touched the loud pedal and she lifted her front wheels off the ground.

These super SUV’s are stupid, preposterous, and defy all reason. This is precisely why they’re incredible.
