I currently both daily and track/autocross my Miata, but driving that tiny thing over 200 miles to some events is getting to be a PITA (not to mention burning up my nice sticky 200tw tires). I also want to upgrade its suspension to a more competitive spec for its class, which would make it awfully stiff for daily duty.

I'm looking at getting something that can haul it to and from events in relative comfort, and replace it as a daily driver. My only hard requirements are a good track record of reliability, comfortable seating for 5 people, a >5,000lb tow rating and ventilated seats. Fuel economy, especially under load, is a big plus though, and has me looking at some diesel offerings. Lane k

Hi all. Lately, my M3 has been uploading massive amounts of data. Normally, I would not mind this. I bought a Tesla knowing that uploading data to the Tesla hivemind was part of the FSD magic. However, since the pandemic, my ISP has been pretty garbage. Specifically, sustained uploads bog down my entire internet connection. I first noticed this when my Tesla was phoning home with a large data package. I tried disabling all data sharing options in the UI, but my car kept uploading. I tried rebooting, but my car kept uploading. I tried driving around a bit, to disconnect from my home WiFi; as soon as I put the car in park, it started uploading. I even tried turning off WiFi in the car UI. You

I delidded my 3770k awhile back, but just recently applied CLU on both the die and IHS, resulting in an astonishing 30C reduction in loaded temperatures. What I'm finding now is that my temps are under control, even under some pretty ridiculous (>1.5V) voltages. I'm trying to figure out what a safe 24/7 voltage threshold would be on this CPU, but when I google "ivybridge safe voltages," it seems like everyone has decided their safe voltages based on temperature. Anyone have experience running Ivy on high voltages and low temperatures? Anyone experienced voltage-induced degradation over the last few years?

It's that time again, I guess. I don't know if we're worthy, in all honesty, but it can't hurt to ask.

My 5 Questions:

1. What are your favorite and least favorite songs you've written?
2. Could you just tell us some stories? Like we're children and you're an old subversive uncle our parents try not to leave us alone with? Maybe about your Coast Guard days, or something embarrasing about Jim Jarmusch?
3. Why are there so many references to Oklahoma on Swordfishtrombones? Not just that you say it a few times, but, like, specific geographical references.
4. Also, is it intentional that almost every non-instrumental on Bone Machine has the word bone in it?
5. Did you ever go fishing
