Didn’t initially vote on the tire pressure poll because there was no option for “I have an automatic tire pressure sensor system which warns me when it drops too low”, but it’s been malfunctioning lately. All four of my wheels have slow leaks (as in they will lose air no matter what tires I have on) so I have to refill them weekly one way or another, so that is what I eventually went with.
I can’t remember the last time I checked my air pressure. My last few cars had pressure sensors.
In the hotels it’s typically only the balloon crews, though I guess there could be some passengers.
Balloons are some of the smoothest form of travel there is. We’re moving with the wind so you don’t even get wind in your face. The basket is suspended from the envelope (fabric part); depending upon the size & configuration/manufacturer you might get some slight rocking as people move around in the basket in the smaller balloons; though I believe this happens less with the big ride balloons as they are compartmentalized so there isn’t as much movement. You really get the sensation of floating between the slow movement & lack of wind.
I guess someone could get nervous & toss their cookies but I’ve never heard of motion sickness in a balloon.
Why? This is literally the easiest form of car maintenance you can do. Most gas stations have an air pump & some of the convenience store chains still have free ones.
I hate the stoopit thumbs up/down likes of social media.
How are you supposed to respond when someone posts something sad/tragic? - Here’s a picture of my dog who just died. Lemme give you a 
for that just seams to me like, “Yeah, he’s dead, how awesome!” & sooo wrong
This, for the car. The system alerts early, so I usually wait till I get home and check it there (having looked at the tires at the first plausible stop, just in case), and top off from the home air compressor.
The work van has no such alert system, but it isn’t driven in the winter, to keep it out of the salt (it’s amazingly unrusty for its age and model in this state, but that’s unlikely to last if I drive it on the salty winter roads.) So I check the tires before starting to drive it in the spring, and then intermittently occasionally through the season on no particular schedule.
ETA: Other: I don’t know why they became an asshole, but I wish they’d stop being one. Whether I want them to fuck off or not depends on who we’re talking about and what sort of assholism it is; but if they’re still going around being an asshole it may not help much if they’re just not being one around me.
Well I am handicapped and have great difficulty with bending over & contorting. It’s a free and quick service so why not?
I used to do all my car maintenance myself but my body has deteriorated significantly and I have to rely on others for a lot lately.
Life is hard for some of us.
I don’t think that the poll meant you have to respond with either a thumbs up or a
thumbs down.
I’m not a huge fan of the thumbs up/thumbs down of reddit. But i like being able to react to posts the way it’s implemented on other sites i use.
I like the “likes” that are disabled on this instance of Discourse. There’s no “dislike”, but if you “like” a post, it displays a little heart 
, and if multiple people “like” a post, it displays a heart with a number next to it. A heart is a suitable reaction to “my dog died”. It’s also a nice way to acknowledge that sometime answered the question you asked, without cluttering up the messages. And it is also suitable if sometime says something you agree with.
On Discord, you can react to a post with any emoji. People use that feature for simple ad hoc polls. (Click the yellow circle if you prefer vanilla, or the brown one of you prefer chocolate.) People react 
for good news, or 
or 
if you write about your dog dying, or 
when someone talks about their horrible bus ride, or 
to say “thank you”. If you agree with a post, you can react with 
or 
. It makes a text chat feel more like an in person conversation, using emojis in place of facial expressions.
I’m another with pressure sensors in my tires. I do pay more attention around this time of year, because the cold weather can and does often drop the pressure below the recommended if the car has sat outside for very long. I rarely drive far enough for them to warm up, and the little warning light annoys me, so I’ll top them up when that happens.
I will just add as a reminder (not directed at @silenus) to also check the spare if you have one - spares wont have the monitoring device. Even if your car has a donut emergency spare, it needs to be checked and topped-off just like the other tires. Don’t find out the hard way the spare is flat right when you need it.
Mine does. My low pressure light came on once, and all the tires were full, but the spare was low.
Shepards Pie and Beef Wellington. I’m assuming Sunday Roast is similar to the roast beef dinners I’ve had but there may be some nuance that I don’t know so I didn’t vote for it.
I am gonna have to look up some of those dishes. You left off spotted dick (no, I haven’t had that one).
Spotted Dick is more of a sweet than a savory to me.
I can post another poll for sweet dishes if people are interested.
For the tire-pressure poll, first, I apologize as several categories were not as well written as intended, it was done between ques for content in WoW and was getting later in the night, so errors were made.
I did it because the car I traded in in September was old enough to have NO sensors, so I generally checked it quarterly (I was too lazy to do it monthly). The one I’m driving NOW is still old, and while it has sensors, it just has a warning indicator - no note of which tire, and it’s notoriously inaccurate or the sensor burns out. I’d only been driving the car for two months, so I hadn’t checked it yet, and the warning light came on. So I checked all 5 tires (it’s old enough to have a full sized spare!) and they were all low by about 4 PSI, so I brought them all up to the manufacturer’s recommend levels.
But it’s still giving the idiot light. 
So who knows how much faith to put in such things, or rather, how much and how accurate is the information given to you by the automated systems.
Thus the poll was born.
My car has sensors but they’re all defunct and I’m not paying to replace them. I check the tires quarterly, when the weather changes, or if I’m going on a longer drive. 5 minutes at Les Schwab.
I’ve only had a handful of the British dishes - full breakfast, shepherd’s pie, fish & chips, Scotch egg, black pudding.
If you’ve never had a Scotch egg, I highly recommend them.
mmm
It’s not necessarily beef, could be lamb or chicken or something else. Usually with roast
potatoes, Yorkshire puddings, gravy, and Oxford commas with a selection of seasonal vegetables.
It could be a bad/dead battery in one or more of the tires. I had that; replaced two of 'em & a week or two later, the new battery signaled I had a problem. I didn’t like spending the money but it was well worth it. Go to a local tire place, they have a tool that can quickly read each tire & tell you which one(s) are still good/dead. It’s a handheld device that they hold up near the tire stem/valve & it reads wirelessly; literally seconds per tire; I would expect this to be free. If they try to charge you for it; go somewhere else.
I consulted with my mechanic about that and he said that sometimes those lights go on when the pressure’s still a pound or two above the recommended amount; but he recommends a slightly higher pressure anyway. So I fill mine to two or three pounds above the recommends, and the light goes out – which makes the light useful again, because even if it goes off early it’s telling me that at least one tire is losing air; and if a tire’s lost enough air to be significantly below recommended I’ll also have the warning light to tell me.
