/c/café daily chat thread for 3 October 2023
(self.cafe)
Welcome to our virtual third place, The Café.
Come on in and make a new human connection over a cup of coffee (or Teh Tarik). This is a casual community, do whatever you want, share your oyen pics, your frustrations, and even organize a weekend picnic with the community. The world is your oyster.
Rules are simple, be kind and civil with each other. As with any other café, rude patrons will be kicked out.
teaching my partner how to drive stick, it's really difficult to do it with a newer car. the anti-stall feature is super unintuitive for beginners because they couldn't appreciate where the biting point is.
for example, i brought her to a slight incline to let her experience engaging and disengaging the clutch, but really - she's just toggling the on-off switch for the ECU to add throttle to prevent stalling.
Learned stick but drive auto nowadays and probably forgotten how to drive stick. But I can feel your words, reminds me of learning my my Dad's old Saga where the biting point is very specific. Stalled it most of the time XD. Edit: grammar and double typed
i learned mine on the Perodua Viva, was clapped as fuck and the clutch was made of a bucket of shit and chewing gum or sth so loose.
during exam they had the new Viva and it was so tight and snug, stalled the car lol.
