  1. I heard that there are extra ads or something now, but its only on the free memberships. Paid members dont gotta deal with it. Good business move i guess.
  2. Alright lol thanks man, ill just work around it. As for starbucks, i was a addict before lol specially because its right next to my job. One drink in the morn and one at lunch break, $17 a day atleast 5days a week. Had to cut that shit out so i could buy some car audio shit lol.
  3. So all the porno sites work on starbucks lol and diyma, idk what it could be. I tried diyma thinking maybe its some kind of block on "forum" style sites.
  4. Yah probably, just seemed weird that it started to happen the same time the lil redesign happened few days ago.
  5. Just recently, i think the site was updated right? Like within a week. Since then i cant get onto this forum at all with Starbucks wifi lol. I go there during my breaks at work. Did this update include some kind of restriction or firewall(if thats even a relevant term)? I can use every other thing with the starbucks wifi tho, like youtube, google, pandora, etc. Seems odd only this webpage wont load at all with that wifi. My regular 3g service loads it, but pretty slow. My wifi at home loads the page fine also. But at starbucks, nothing, not even half way. The loading bar starts then stops and never moves and no images at all pop up or any kind of "error" message of anykind. Anyone else have this problem? Maybe starbucks added something to their wifi security? But why would this forum be considered "restricted" or blocked by anyones wifi lol.
  6. Ive heard kenwoods dont distort at max volume. Also pioneers can be like that. Theres a thread around here some where, where everyone posts what volume their headunit distorts at. Maybe yours is on there.
  7. Its awesome to see real compassion being shown toward animals. Ive got WAY more compassion and understanding toward animals than i do for people. Glad to be a supporting member Steve.
  8. If ya'll got a family and kids, dont ride streetbikes/motorcycles.Everyone i know/knew that rode bikes passed away in a bike accident. And they all had kids. Sucks man.

      Sorry for your loss, man.

       

      If you live life worried about the what ifs you're gonna have a boring life, just my 2 cents.

      You could die of a fall while walking out your front door, doesn't you ever will.

      Just like anything else in life its a calculated risk.

      Situational awareness is key, along with being seen by drivers so they know who, and what you are, i will ride with my high beams on so a person does not mistake me for a car that is farther away than i really am. That one change has completely stopped the "OMG i didn't see you" quotes people use, cause they are used to looking for cars and not motorcycles. Listen, i may piss some people off with the use of high beams, and my life is more important than your discomfort for a few seconds, and i see other bikers doing the same thing as me and have no anger towards them as i fully understand what it means to ride as safe as we can.

  9. Ur in the wrong area bro lol. This is Big D Wiz's area, he posts amp tests vids and stuff. Go back one section and post a thread in the amplifier area with the other amplifier question posts.
  10. in Either i didnt use the dmm the right way or its more complicated than i thought lol. My dmm read 11.5 v on the battery while car completely off. Figured the battery was fine and something technical was wrong. Scheduled an apt at the dealers and a towing from AAA. Aaa said they could come take a look at it and see if they can help any. They hooked up a charge and the car started less than 10s after they hooked it up!? Lol wtf. The guy said the battery was really low, around 7v!? He said his machine simulates the car starting up or something, thats why my dmm read 11.5v but his charge machine read 7v??? Whats the deal wih that, can someone explain how that works just so i know a lil more. 

    His machine also shows the alternator is fine so he thinks i mustve left a light on or something and thats why it was dead in the morning. Glad thats sorted out for now. Hopefully thats all it was. How do i make sure my battery is good? If it went down to 7v is it gonna be able to hold this charge? After a few mins of being hooked up it was back to 12v. seems super fast .

      Yah i was checking out that video. Apparently the cheap walmart dmm i got wont be good enough to get accurate readings, testing the probes on ohms it was all over the place and high. So just gonna wait till im off to go get a fluke dmm. I also got a battery charger  so ill be charging the battery the checking for a parasitic draw. Hopefully its that easy to find.

      I can tell you right now that dodges of that era had a shit load of wiring problems, ask me how i know......

      Mine ended up being a bunch of faulty wiring underneath the dash.

      Take it to a GOOD auto electric shop and let them figure it out.

      Thats messed up broke lol. Yah ive gotten several "recall" notices over the years and had to take the car in. The best shop i think i have around here is the dealership. I have an appointment with them on Wednesday if i dont figure it out by then.  

  11. pens agaDamn car crapped out on me this morning. Went to leave for work this morning and the car wouldnt start. Could it be because my battery is low? I dont know if its low but its never not started. 

    Since my rear seat is removed i can hear the truck compartment where my stock battery and fuse box is. When i turn the key over the dash lights come on and the trunk area makes a "click click click click click click" sound really fast for a couple seconds then everything goes off, then if i try again it does exactly the same but shuts off even quicker. What do ya'll think it is??? I gotta try to fix it when i get home from work.

      Yeah check battery first. Next would probably be a starter solenoid. I only work on older vehicles so I'm not even sure if newer ones have the solenoid.

      Alright ill pick up a digital multi meter. Would the dmm be able to tell if my alternator is putting out sufficient power to charge the battery? My coworker brought up a good point to check the alternator. I dont beleive the battery should've died. I think maybe becuase i dont drive alot (works less than a mile away, maybe even a mile round trip) that my battery weakens a lil from not being driven for long periods of time to keep it charged. The car is running for maybe an hour- hour half total per week on average. 

  12. Did anyone elses "Equipment" section get combined with the "For Sale" section???

      Aww shit, thats gonna suck too. Keeping arms above shoulder height for extended periods is weakness of mine. 

  15. This app seems like itll work, pretty simple too, WAYYYYYYY easier than doing imgurl and copy pasting links and all that BS. You open the app, click all the pics u want to shrink (still looks the same). Then it shrink all the pics u selected and is automatically deleted ur huge data pics and replaced them with ur small data pics in ur gallery. So now u can use the direct post feature buy chosing photo gallery. Still cant take a live pic and post it, but this will do for now.
  16. Alright its all good Steve ill figure something out. Maybe theres a camera app that can take pics at a certain file size that will work or something. Just tryna keep as little steps as possible from "taking a pic" to "posting a pic". Direct uploads from Camera wouldve been perfect. My iphone 6s plus doesnt give any info like the data size on the pictures specs and stuff. I tried looking for pic settings or something but couldnt find much, nothing that helped anyway. Lol and nah bro, no need for a refund, i still dig the forum and the Tools and stuff u supply, ill still support. Ill post back if i find an app that helps out so others can use it too. I use the imgurl app and its good but to post a build log with lots of pics, that would be a pain goin back and forth and copying links and posting links lol. Thanks again for responding Steve i found the file size my camera takes from another app, 3.5 mb is the size of all my regular pics. This app shirks them down to 91KB....wtf is iphone doin lol the pics look exactly the same. Apple tryna get u to use up space quick so u buy those 1,000,000gig iphones lol.
  17. That would be cool for the mobile users, audiofanatic said the desktop version resizes HUGE files automaticaly. But i dont use a comp, just my phone. Mayhe the mobile version didnt get that feature.
  18. No prob man, i appreciate ur help alot. Damn, only two mods taking care of business here. Just keep me posted on it when u got time man, much appreciated.
  19. Ive messaged audiofanic and steve tho, hopefully they let me know whats up. Either way its all good, i just wanna know if it can be done or not.
