Your First Car


Recommended Posts

1989 Ford F-150

Pros:

Two gas tanks

One helluva of an off road truck, Drove it in some swamp land and at some points the water and mud got up to the bottom of the door even with my 4in lift. Never got stuck (Y) I still have it just for playing around with.

It was my first car and was great fun to drive :D

Cons

No AC

Wipers got hit by a tree branch and were never the same :pinch:

No front bumper- Well a modded POS

No tailgate

When I first got it the passenger door worked, but one day the handle got stuck and could not close I had to tie it shut. When I got home I took the whole thing apart and got it to close, but then it got stuck again and I could not get it back open, it ****ed me off so much that I jerked the inside handle and broke it in half. :wacko:

No inside paneling for driver side door, just the frame ?you don?t want to know w:whistle:tle: Since it was just the frame for the door, the driver side window was being held up by a 2x4 piece and leaked in the rai:p :p

I will take some pictures and stick them up tomorrow

1992 Chevrolet Cavalier RS

My parents got it used (after being totalled and fixed) and gave it to me when I got my license. Since we got it, it has had numerous new parts put in (probably more than the car was worth) including a new CD player and speakers :D. We sold it a couple of months ago and I'm now looking for a new car. If you know of any, don't post them here, visit my thread at https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=270106.

98 Chevy Malibu

I still have it. It was my dads car and then he gave it to me as a graduation present. His replacement was a 2004 Grand Prix..******. I havent had the best of luck with this car so once I hit 100,000 (if I even get there...) I am going to replace it hopefully with either a Mitsubshi Lancer or Audi A4.

Ha-ha. Good luck with that! My parents have a 1998 Chevy Malibu and it's in the shop nearly every month.

    • Microsoft releases Visual Studio Code 1.124 with smarter autonomous AI agents by Paul Hill Microsoft has just released Visual Studio Code 1.124 with a focus on faster agent workflows and improved agent autonomy. Microsoft outlined the following features as the key items in this update: Autopilot: Autopilot, enabled by default, is now smarter to determine when a task is truly done. Background sessions: Quickly send a request in the background and keep composing the next session. Session navigation: Search, jump, and step through agent sessions with the keyboard. Browser history: Revisit and search pages you've already opened in the integrated browser. With VS Code 1.124, Microsoft has enabled Autopilot by default. For those that don’t know, Autopilot is a chat permission level that you can pick to give agents permission to take initiative and act autonomously, without needing explicit user approval for each action. Also related to Autopilot, Microsoft introduced Advanced Autopilot, which changes how Autopilot decides when to keep iterating and when to finish. This helps you get more complete results without manually monitoring loops. This feature works using a small utility model that reads a transcript of the chat and decides when the task is done. Another new feature in 1.124 is the Agents window, which lets you easily explore, iterate on, and review agent sessions across projects and machines. Previously, starting a new agent session meant waiting for it to load before you could compose the next one. With this update, sessions can be requested in the background. This VS Code update also brings session navigation updates to switch between them more quickly. The update also lets you reload or reopen the Agents window so that it no longer loses your layout, so you will land back where you left off. If you use the integrated browser in VS Code, you will notice that it now retains the history of visited pages. Suggestions will now show when typing in the URL bar and can be managed by using Ctrl+H within a browser tab. The browser now also lets you customize the toolbar more; just right-click on the toolbar area to the right of the URL input. Finally, the browser has faster agentic text entry. Another improvement is experimental enterprise-managed Copilot plugin policies that allow admins to centrally control which chat plugins and plugin marketplaces are available to developers. If you have VS Code installed, 1.124 should install automatically, or you'll get a prompt. If you don't have it installed, get it here.
    • Ray-Tracing is the Radeon RX 9070 XT's biggest weakness. The Radeon RX 9070 XT might not be able to match in the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti in ray-tracing, but it can beat the GeForce RTX 5070, which is around the same price.
