    I swear, I feel like one of those guys where I discover something unintentionally and automatically like it already.

    Well, it's technically situational but that's what I'm noticing. I know this is quite vague, but it's only now I finally recognize that pattern.

    I would like to mention here that the only thing causing the r34 coupe here https://www.beamng.com/threads/nissan-skyline-er34.40092/ to not work is the r34_glass.jbeam file located in sukairain\vehicles\er34\coupe. I'm too lazy to check if anyone acknowledged this in the main thread and the thread is locked so I can't tell anyone to delete the file. I decided to take a look into what was causing Beamng to crash and I figured this out. Now it works perfectly!

    no, just that glass file. But there wont be any glass when you load up the coupe, and dont use the cabrio glass because that will crash the game. I've tried using a newer modified sunburst glass jbeam but the game still crashed.

    So my 528’s acting up.

    I changed the fouled iridium plugs for Bosch copper/silver ones, which are closer to factory spec. The gap is 0.8mm while factory specs are about 0.7mm.

    The car started, but refused to idle, it stalled, and now it won’t start again.

    Fuel pressure is fine, air filter is all good, intake boot and AFM are attached.

    Now the car tries to run backwards and only runs when the distributor is messed with.

    No obvious vacuum issues

    L-Jetronic was co-developed with Lucas and I can see why.

    What do you think is wrong with it?

    I'm going to make a wild guess, but maybe the gap should be 0.7mm as is the factory spec. Again, it's a wild guess.

    The opposite is true.

    When there's no such thing as privacy and everyone recognize that.

    1. There will be an eternal silence on every social network.
    By analizing the bahavior of the users, Facebook is cabable of manipulate the users - and already did that(such as influencing presidantial elections). Every word you said, incrase the amount of being manipulated by the data collectors, the more the data collected, the worse the life quality the victium. When everyone recognize there's no privacy, the social bahavior will be minimized.

    2. Every individials will do their best of making a poker face.
    Modern face recognition technologies are now capable of detecting people's emotion. When combined with data collections, they can conclude what makes him/her happy/unhappy. With pradatory techno-social engineering(search it if you don't know what it is), data collectors can manipulate the victium's behavior without being noticed. So the less the emotion expressed, the less the amount of being manipulated. Making a poker face (combined with not using social network) will make your emotion nearly undetectable, freeing your inner self from being manipulated.

    3. Chatting will be avoided in public places.
    Smartphones are also a smart spy device. It can see and hear(and analize) the surronding even when "switched off", the only way to avoid is to mechanically disconnect the camera and microphone. Since people don't know if a working microphone is near by, they(and us) won't say anything for the sake of avoiding of being analized. To chat without being techno-social engineered, go to a distant place where no digital devices is present.

    4. There will be a cessation of seeking a better life.
    When there's no privacy, first degree price discrimination will be widely used. Exercising first degree (or perfect or primary) price discrimination requires the monopoly seller of a good or service to know the absolute maximum price that every consumer is willing to pay. By knowing the reservation price, the seller is able to sell the good or service to each consumer at the maximum price they are willing to pay, leading it to be the most profitable form of price discrimination. When everyone's "willing to pay" is analized, shops could easily do that. For example, two individuals, A and B, A is rich and generous while B is poor and stingy. The shop will put a higher price tag in seconds where A is present, and a lower price tag where B is present, on the very same commodity, to maximize the profit.
    Thus, being poor and stingy will save your money when buying the same thing, so why be rich and generous?

    The list is endless......................There will be a dystopia, if any, future.

    Privacy is a fundamental human right and our future depends on it.

    Talking about Yakuzza thinking of starting with 0. Is that a good game to start with?

    I got something for Christmas that I've been wanting for a while: A steering wheel & pedal controller. Specifically, the model is a Thrustmaster T150, and it works very well. It's a very nice change from the binary nature of the keyboard.

    They're probably just trying to sell you random garbage. It's happened to me too.

    It seems a little obvious, you're getting an advertisement for a Google product while on a Google owned site. Perhaps Google's taking the opportunity to shoehorn their products into their pages.
