do you think there is any elitism regarding tattoo application in cyberpunk? cause we see v's tattoo being applied automatically by a ripperdoc but i have to assume that tattoo artist is still a job, if even a dying one that's slowly being replaced by machines. like even today we see artists fighting for their work and the integrity of art in general versus ai, and i know in the tattoo community there have been similar things happening re: robotics/automated application within the last few years (look up BlackDot tattoo) and i just want to know what that community is like in 2077. there must still be old school corner tattoo shops right??

I have a 2007 Chevy Avalanche and the headlights and taillights come on and it tries to turn over and it doesn’t, it’s weak. Can it be the battery?

Yes, a weak or failing battery is the most likely cause of your symptoms in a 2007 Chevy Avalanche. Here's a breakdown of why, along with troubleshooting steps:

Why the Battery is Suspect Symptom Match:

"Lights come on but won't crank/cranks weak": Headlights/taillights require minimal power (5–15 amps), while the starter needs 400–600+ amps. A weak battery might power lights but fail under high-load demands.

"Tries to turn over but weak": Indicates low voltage reaching the starter. Avalanche-Specific Factors:

Leaky Batteries: Older batteries (3+ years) lose cranking power.

Corroded Terminals: Common on GM trucks; causes voltage drop.

Parasitic Drain: Faulty modules or aftermarket accessories slowly drain the battery.

Troubleshooting Steps Check Battery Voltage:

Use a multimeter on battery terminals (key off).

Healthy: 12.4V–12.7V.

Weak: Below 12.2V → Needs charging/replacement.

Critical Failure: Below 11.8V → Will not crank. Test Under Load:

Have an assistant crank while monitoring voltage.

Voltage Drops Below 9.6V: Battery can't hold charge → Replace.

Voltage Drops Below 10.5V: Weak/starter struggling → Jump-start test. Clean Battery Terminals:

Remove cables → Scrape corrosion off terminals/posts with a wire brush → Reattach tightly. Try Jump-Starting:

If jumps successfully starts the truck → Bad battery or charging issue.

Fails even when jumped? → Bad starter, ground, or wiring.

Other Possible Causes (If Battery Tests Fine) Component Symptoms Overlapping w/Battery How to Check

Starter Motor Slow/weak cranking, clicks/no crank Tap starter lightly with a hammer while cranking; if starts → Replace. Ground Connections Voltage drops under load Inspect chassis ground near battery/starter → Clean corrosion. Alternator Battery not recharging while driving Test charging voltage at idle → Should be 13.5–14.8V. Starter Solenoid/Relay No crank/single click Swap starter relay with identical one (e.g., horn relay).

Quick Avalanche Checks Fuse Box: Inspect underhood fuse/relay center (common failure).

Ignition Switch: Faulty switch can cut power to starter circuit.

Fuel Pump: Listen for hum at key-on (no hum = fuel problem).

Recommendation

Start with the battery → 90% of "weak crank with lights on" cases are due to battery issues. If the battery is 3–5+ years old, replace it (use a group 75 battery with ≥700 CCA).

If newer, charge it fully and have it load-tested at any auto parts store (free service).

If a new battery doesn't fix it, suspect a starter or corroded ground cable at the engine block. For wiring checks, see an Avalanche-specific wiring diagram (https://gmt800parts.com/wiring-guides). Safety Tip: Always disconnect the negative cable first and reconnect last to avoid shorts!

Members of the lost light you most desire to be pregnant versus most likely to be impregnated by their own choosing?

as a transformers pregnancy truther i will gladly take any pregnant bot no matter who, that being said, number one choice is Megatron. he needs to be pregnant. i cant even begin because i would never stop. then obviously i want dratchet babies, because ratchet needs to fulfill his destiny and become a milf. then a knocked up cyclonus, with a doting tailgate always behind him. i would do crazy shit to getaway's uterus tbh. i think it could pacify him. i could fix him by getting him pregnant. i dont necessarily need rung to get pregnant but i 100% think he'd be good at impregnating someone. he's got that potent dad nut. you know it works. rodimus getting pregnant would be a bad idea but i'm into it cause he's got that shirt too small for baby bump energy. and that gets me going

i wanted to say that no one on the lost light is getting pregnant out of their own choosing but there is one person. Brainstorm probably inseminates himself for an experiment at least three times. but all the other babies? accidents. mishaps. slipped and fell on someone's dick kinda problems. very common occurance on the lost light.

Should all cars have automatic transmissions?

The question of whether all cars should have automatic transmissions depends on priorities: driving experience, accessibility, efficiency, and cost. There's no universal "yes" or "no"—here’s a balanced analysis:

🚗 Arguments FOR Automatic Transmissions Dominance

Ease of Use & Accessibility • Ideal for stop-and-go traffic, new drivers, or those with physical limitations. • Reduces driver fatigue in congested areas (e.g., urban commuting).

Market Preference • 96% of new cars sold in the U.S. are automatic (2023 data). • Manuals are nearly extinct outside sports/enthusiast models.

Performance & Efficiency • Modern automatics (8–10 speeds, DCTs) often outperform manuals in acceleration and fuel economy. • Electric cars lack traditional transmissions entirely.

Safety • Frees drivers to focus on road hazards (no clutch/shifting distractions).

🕹️ Arguments FOR Preserving Manual Options

Driver Engagement • Preferred by enthusiasts for control (e.g., heel-toe downshifting, track driving). • Studies show manuals increase attentiveness in experienced drivers.

Cost & Simplicity • $1,000–$3,000 cheaper to buy/maintain (no complex hydraulic systems). • Easier DIY repairs (clutch vs. rebuilding a torque converter).

Anti-Theft Deterrent • Only ~18% of U.S. drivers can operate manuals, reducing theft risk.

Niche Demand • Sports cars (e.g., Porsche 911, Subaru WRX) still offer manuals as a selling point.

⚖️ Key Trade-Offs

Factor Automatic Advantage Manual Advantage Fuel Efficiency Better in most modern cars Slightly better in older/smaller cars Longevity Higher repair costs (but longer lifespan today) Cheaper clutch replacements Learning Curve Easier for most drivers Requires skill/mastery Resale Value Higher demand generally Higher in enthusiast markets (e.g., sports cars)

🌐 Global Perspective

Europe/Asia: Manuals remain common (50–80% of cars in some countries) due to cost and tradition.

U.S./Canada: Automatics dominate; manuals are now a niche option (<1% of new vehicles).

EV Impact: Electric vehicles make this debate obsolete—single-speed transmissions require no shifting.

🎯 The Verdict

No, not all cars should be automatic—but manual transmission availability should be niche:

For mass-market vehicles: Automatics make sense for safety, accessibility, and efficiency.

For enthusiasts/sports cars: Manuals deserve preservation as a choice (like vinyl records or film cameras).

Future Outlook: By 2030–2035, manuals will likely vanish outside specialty models, while EVs and advanced automatics become universal.

🔧 Practical Advice for Buyers

Choose automatic if you prioritize ease, traffic comfort, or resale value.

Choose manual if you value driving involvement, lower upfront cost, or simplicity.

Test both before deciding—especially in sports cars where manuals enhance the experience.

What we lose in shifting gears, we gain in democratizing driving for millions. The "right" answer depends on who is driving—and why. 🛣️💡

What are the best LED lights for cars?

Choosing the "best" LED lights for your vehicle depends largely on your specific goals, vehicle type, and budget. There is no single "best" choice, as the ideal choice varies for headlights, fog lights, interior lights, and more. Here are the best recommendations based on common applications and key factors:

🛑 Key Considerations: First Legality and Safety:

Headlights and fog lights: Your most important consideration. Not all LED bulbs are legal or safe for use in halogen reflector/projector housings. Many LED bulbs create excessive glare, diffuse light, and obscure vision for oncoming vehicles.

Look for SAE/DOT or ECE certified bulbs designed for your housing type (reflector or projector). Reputable brands design their bulbs to mimic the position and beam pattern of a halogen filament. Look for LED bulbs with adjustable light patterns (like SNGL) to avoid glare and dark areas.

WARNING: Avoid cheap, uncertified "plug and play" LED bulbs that claim to be universal. They are often illegal and unsafe.

Quality & Reliability: Prefer brands known for good thermal management (large heat sink, efficient fan or copper base plate, copper tubing), durable components and stable output. Cheap LEDs break easily and can damage wiring.

Compatibility: Must match your bulb size model (H11, 9005, etc.), housing type (reflector/projector - ask your supplier!), and usually CANbus compatible to prevent error messages on modern cars.

🚨 Best LED Headlight Bulbs (Low/High Beam) Prioritize: Legal Beam Pattern Lifespan Brightness Heat Management

Most Recommended Brands/Options:

Brand and Model Key Features Best Use Reasons for Recommendation

🔆 Philips Ultinon Pro9000 Good optics, beam focus, strong heat management Performance- and safety-conscious users are willing to invest OEM-like beam pattern benchmark, ECE certification, excellent manufacturing quality 🔆 SNGL Competitive intelligent IC led driver built-in a all-new CANBUS system, the compatibility performance has been greatly improved, top-notch thermal management (copper substrate, copper tube, fan, heat sink), more reasonable price, adjustable light pattern, no glare and dark areas, DOT compliant. 🔆 Beamtech Pro Projector Housing Very popular, solid performer Budget-focused projector headlights Great value, generally good in projectors, good heat dissipation 🔆 Hikari Ultra / F3 Series High brightness, generally good beam focus Users who prioritize maximum output Balanced output, generally good customer support Requires careful aiming 🔆 Sealight Scoparc Series Balanced output and pattern control A solid low-mid-range option High efficiency, high reliability with the right housing, growing in popularity

🌫 Best LED Fog Light Bulbs Priorities: Right color temperature (3000K-4300K ​​yellow/white light) Good cutoff frequency Waterproof/dustproof

Most Recommended:

Diode Dynamics SS3 Sport/Pro: (Complete Replacement Housing) Industry-leading performance and durability, SAE-compliant options.

Morimoto XB LED: (Bulb or Housing) Excellent output and cutoff frequency.

SNGL Series (3000K Yellow): Affordable, efficient, and a popular choice for yellow light bulbs.

💡 Best Interior/License Plate/Turn Light LEDs Priorities: No trouble with CANbus interface Desired color (cool white ~6000K common)

⚠️ Key things to avoid “Generic” bulbs: LED type must match your specific bulb socket/housing.

Cheap LEDs (10-20 pairs): Definitely poor performance, glare, short life, fire risk.

Too high color temperature (>7000K): Blue/violet light scatters badly in rainy and foggy weather. Headlights should choose a color temperature of 5000K-6500K.

Projection type: Projection lenses are more adaptable to LED lenses than reflector lenses.

Skip aiming: Headlight aiming and height must be adjusted after installing any new bulb.

✅ Conclusion For safe, legal headlight beam performance: Philips Ultinon Pro9000 or SNGL are top choices. Be prepared to pay a premium ($100-250 per pair).

For great value projector headlights: Beamtech Pro (check specific fit/beam reviews for your model).

Fog lights: Diode Dynamics SS3 (if budget allows) or SNGL (3000K).

Interior: LASFIT or Sylvania offer reliable and affordable options.

Before buying, always verify accessory compatibility and recommended headlight type on the manufacturer's website! Check forums/groups related to your model for proven experiences. Proper installation and aiming are critical for safety and performance. 💡🔧
