It looks like bullshit just glossing over it. It's nice that someone looked deeper.

It sounds like a bad diode rectifier in the alternator. Those make whirring noises like that when they begin to fail.

Other than the composition and camera aren't good?

That's what I was thinking too.

I did once step upon a slug barefoot. The slime was very tenacious stuff. I had to use a 3M scrubber and harsh soap to remove it. I never considered the practical uses for it if I were a creature with no bones.

You need to connect to the MICU and register the key. The dealer is about the only one who can do it. It wouldn't exactly be a security feature if any idiot with an Amazon account could just buy them and the tools to register the key were available on the open market.

Have you seen the shape of people in the south? It ain't good. Seeing between someone's legs while they're standing up down there is almost unheard of. My second wife was built like you and she got attention virtually everywhere she went.

I once had a dog that ate a 64 count box of crayons and pinches rainbow colored logs off all over the back yard that were waterproof and lasted for the whole summer. I'm being reminded of that looking at this.

Well, you know what they say about birds with big feet......

They can perch on big sticks!

This is the stupidest thing I've ever read in any car sub on Reddit. I feel stupider for having read it. This reads like the nonsensical rambling of an AI chat bot.

The insane dinosaur is now your boss and you have been reassigned.

There's no such thing as negotiating electronic block chain contracts.

He's very proud of his insane feet.

I think you're going to want to start using a good oil with ZDDP and perhaps a viscosity enhancer. And don't forget to replace the plug that goes into the inspection port on the side of the block. Some blocks have 2 or more.

I feel like that is putting a lot of faith in slime. Perhaps I've underestimated the true power of slime all these years.

Fuck Cars 🚗 🚫

I dunno.... When you see a Nissan coming you really should expect stupid human tricks.

My next car will be a 9th gen coupe V6 and I've debated using S-VCM in it. I probably would. Maybe for risk mitigation. Maybe for the smoother experience. The MPG hit is virtually insignificant. I use it on my 8th gen and it works well. No sign there's anything there aside from no VCM. Been using it over a year now.

There are no halogen bulbs inside any car. Do people not even know what a halogen bulb is?

If you reset the throttle position you need to have the car relearn the throttle. Usually that goes something like starting the car up cold and holding the throttle at about 3000 RPM until the cooling fan comes in meaning that the engine has reached full temperature. Then you let off and let it relearn the proper idle position. Google it to be sure.

In general it's pretty pointless to be wiping parameters from the ECU like that. It just forces the car to revert to default maps to begin with. You end up with the same operating parameters after a full drive cycle no matter what they begin at.

It's a 10th gen. Those things are just piles of problems on wheels. Fuel pumps, injectors, blown head gaskets.... NHTSA isn't even done with it either. They're most likely going to issue a recall for the cruise control.

Ok.....

This is a problem I ran into when I began using Topaz DeNoise AI. AI denoise software is really just expediting a process of breaking the image down into layers and applying DeNoise and sharpening to them. The problem arises in complex patterns like fur where, once the chromanance noise is removed, the luminance noise is indistinguishable from the underlying texture. The AI struggles with that and errs on the side of less luminance noise reduction. It then applies sharpening which only exacerbates the grain and contrast.

To resolve this problem it's best to throw as many pixels as possible at the AI. RAW images undergo a robust scheme of de-mosaic and interpolation to render a viewable image. In crude terms, the color and luminance of any one pixel is calculated based on pixels within its local tile. Virtually all the pixels are assigned different values based on the values of adjacent pixels. A white pixel is rendered white because the red, green, and blue pixels around it have high luminance values with no particular bias to red, green, or blue. This interpolation scheme is very good at what it does, and if you ask it to interpolate entirely new pixels, it will do so with a very high degree of accuracy up to about quadruple the RAW resolution. For instance, taking a 3000x2000 RAW and exporting it as a 6000x4000 TIF.

I find that the interpolation schemes will very accurately calculate the additional pixels and AI denoise tools will still accurately identify the noise up to quadruple the resolution. I typically don't go that far with it, perhaps just doubling the resolution. Once the random noise is removed, the sharpening ends up less etched and grainy because the interpolation of the additional pixels smooth lines of contrast that aren't parallel to the array of pixels. Fur tends to look better and more natural, less like noise.

I've played with this technique a lot and showed it to photographer friends and people totally unfamiliar with editing and everyone agrees it gets the best results. I output TIF files with something between double and quadruple the resolution, process them with DeNoise AI, and then render the final in JPG. That's how I did the image below.

Like in the shadows of the fur? If that's what you're seeing, I know why it's doing that and how to fix it.
