Hey kbin! Have you ever driven a fast car, and I mean a really fast car. What’s it like? (kbin.social)
 

Hi friends, I have a question for you out there. What is it like to drive an awesomely fast sports car. Like a Porsche or Ferrari or Lamborghini? My question is more about the accelerator pedal. Is it more sensitive? Or does it depress a further distance than your typical Ford or Buick would? How do you control the speed around town if the machine is built to go so much faster so much more quickly than your average daily driver?

Thanks for indulging me.

Where would one stream (be a streamer) live sports? in c/[email protected]

There has been quite a surge of sports on the ‘net as of lately. I do wonder why that is?

what are some of the most beautiful cars in your opinion? in c/cars

Right on. Sure the interiors might show their age. But for a car that’s pushing 30 years old, it is still incredibly sharp.

Have you replaced your iPhone battery, and was it worth it? in c/apple_enthusiast
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I had my battery replaced by Apple on my XS. I was down to about 80% life, maybe less. I have seen a very noticeable improvement in battery life. It seems to charge faster when I’m using it on a charger. And before I was losing like 40% of my battery overnight while my phone sat here. Now it’s maybe 2 or 3%.

If you go with Apple they also replace your speaker since it’s integrated or something? They also accidentally cracked my screen when replacing battery, so I got a new battery, new speaker, and brand new screen for like $80 or $90. Definitely breathed new life into my phone.

What is meant by:

In a Threads post, Zuckerberg took a light jab at Twitter while optimistically predicting that Threads could become the first online public square that attracts a billion users

Doesn’t Facebook already have more than 1 billion users?

How do you maintain walking / biking trails in the woods? Recently purchased a home with more than 4 acres of property. The majority of that is fairly dense woods. in c/[email protected]

I mean I’d like to be able to drive a Gator or something back there to make landscaping easier. I envision having a clearing with a little gazebo and small fire pit for the family. A man can dream, right?

Hey, I appreciate all suggestions. Im new to home ownership and I’ll weight my options.

Interesting perspective, I was thinking I’d just eyeball what looks to be about 6-8 feet wide and start hacking away. This is definitely more nuanced than I thought.

If they aren't walked often they will overgrow and become wild

Yup that’s my problem! My woods slopes downwards. We had such a rainy and wet spring I wasn’t confident I could drive a mower back to the woods without getting stuck. So Mother Nature did her job and took over. I’m sure the animals appreciate it! Haha

Appreciate the suggestions! I’ve found a local John James Audubon group and they have many recommendations for native flowers and bushes and plants that will attract local animals / insects.

Clearly the previous owner had some trails at some point. I have a zero-turn mower, but I’m hesitant to drive it through the woods and risk hitting a large stump or a rock.

If I open a federated community I see this in kbin : https://imgur.com/a/oFQnMqj

And there is no option to subscribe without creating an account on that instance.

I think I might have read you need to search with a specific phrase but I can’t find where I saw that.
