[06:08] DaemonFC It can cause excessive carbon buildup on some newer engines, but that actually started being a problem here with German cars. [06:10] DaemonFC MinceR, VW started using GDI before anyone else in the US market did. Most gas stations were using the minimum legal amount of gasoline detergent because all the cars sold here were indirect (port) fuel injection systems where carbon fouling is only really a problem with non-detergent gas, which was last sold in America in the early 80s. [06:11] DaemonFC So by 40,000 miles the car ran like shit and a mechanic had to take the engine apart and use "walnut shell blasting" to sand off the carbon buildup. [06:12] DaemonFC MinceR, The irony of it is that before 1996, when there was no federal EPA detergent standard, most gas brands competed by boasting about how much more detergent they had than the competitor. [06:12] DaemonFC Then the standard passed and they all reverted to the minimum, somtimes cutting their detergent levels by more than half. [06:14] DaemonFC MinceR, Gas detergent levels are minimal in almost every case, and besides, one advantage of driving my 3800 V6 is it doesn't really care about detergent. As long as it meets the 1996 standard, it's perfectly fine. :) [06:16] DaemonFC The gasoline delivery trucks all fill up at the same refinery. [06:16] DaemonFC So what gives? [06:17] DaemonFC Well, they pour about a gallon of detergent in many thousands of gallons of gas and let the truck bouncing around and then filling the station's tank mix it. [06:17] DaemonFC I usually gas up at Thornton's. [06:18] DaemonFC They have an app and every week they have a 10 cent off per gallon coupon. [06:18] DaemonFC So I just go fill up with whatever gas I need, usually on Saturdays. [06:20] IPFS () Planet Gemini updated.

[06:24] DaemonFC The older ones are the ones that need to warm up longer before you can ask much of them. They don't run very well with a cold engine. [06:24] DaemonFC You don't warm a car up for the benefit of the car anymore. Anything more than about a minute just wastes gas. You warm up the car if it's a really cold morning for you. [06:25] DaemonFC When the engine gets going from the remote start, it'll turn the heater on. I have mine set to 90. So by the time I go back out, it's melted all the ice off the windows.

[23:29] DaemonFC One person watches the scanner at all times and flags things for another TSO to pull and check." [23:29] DaemonFC "The TSA pretty much deliberately slows down the non-precheck lines to frustrate people into paying for precheck because it's how they make a lot of their budget. [23:29] DaemonFC If you don't pay, you have to show up two hours early, and take your shoes off, and a lot of other dumb things, when the precheck procedures could have everyone through the checkpoint twice as fast.

[23:30] DaemonFC "If you fly a lot and get TSA precheck randomly, though, it does mean that they ran a comprehensive background check on you (they won't say what they use, but it's fairly thorough) and they've determined you to be a low risk passenger. [23:30] DaemonFC If they give it to you even once, they don't consider you a threat. [23:30] DaemonFC Having any conviction for violent crime pretty much guarantees you won't get it randomly, but they also monitor things like Facebook and Twitter, and your iMessage conversations." [23:30] DaemonFC "Apple turns over iMessage conversations to the Department of Homeland Security in bulk, in real time, and they get scanned for key words and phrases just like the SIGINT coming in from Twitter, Facebook, Gmail, Outlook, and the file scanners that run on iCloud and Google Drive. [23:30] DaemonFC These get concatenated and used to build a risk profile behind your back, and then there's people who can get precheck, people who have to go through the regular line, and a list of people who get pulled and questioned." [23:30] DaemonFC "Most of the risk scoring is completely automated and the people who work for DHS don't even know how the software works or why they're pulling people out of the lines and taking them to be questioned. [23:30] DaemonFC It can get so bad that you can't fly at all and you don't know why, but I'm told that list has never been more than 47,000 people." [23:30] DaemonFC "One man got put on the Customs "yank him out of line for questioning every time he enters the country" list and it took him forever to find out why. [23:30] DaemonFC He ordered a designer briefcase on Amazon several years prior and it never came, so his credit card gave him a chargeback refund. [23:30] DaemonFC Turns out, Customs had intercepted it and put his name on a list of people notorious for smuggling counterfeit goods into America, because he tried to buy a briefcase and the seller wasn't legit. (Marketplace)" [23:31] DaemonFC "The Customs Shitlist is worse than the TSA one, because 99.999% of people the TSA can't "clear" just have to go through the normal line instead, but anything involving an International Border means you have pretty much none of your rights, even if you're a US citizen.
