Yea that’s like smoking a few packs a day, drinking like a fish, and eating baconators for every meal and then wondering why you’re dying at 30…gotta do the bare minimum at least lol
Though I did know someone who would basically buy a car drive it until the tires were bald and trade it in for the next one… pretty sure they didn’t change the oil either.
O yeah thats got the 1GR in it. You can do 400k miles with no issues in that thing.
Yep. Probably why trump is saying Israel and Iran are in a ceasefire now
What Toyota? A lot of their engines will do 500k miles with normal maintenance easy. My LC had 300k miles right now.
We stopped mowing our farm a few years ago. The insects that returned are crazy. Lightning bugs, bees of all kinds, tons of butterflies and our bat population for the few tiny caves we have has increased tenfold. It’s been a crazy transformation by…not doing work lol
Price of cars has increased massively. 2000 average price of new car was like 20k now it’s around 50k. Dunno about you but most people’s salaries have not increased 150%.
They didn’t make that clear in the comment then. Maintenance is always required for basically anything that gets used on a regular basis but saying a entire car is done after 20 years is insane.
Yea, cars aren’t cheap, and it’s way cheaper to keep them running than to buy new. Tons of people drive 20+ year old cars, and as that other poster shows 14+ is the average now. It’s going up because cars are just insanely expensive now. At least here in the USA.
Most of my vehicles are 20+ years old…the fuck. Telling someone they should buy new because the old ones are degraded is dumb.
You know who steps into that place? China and the CCP…the US has its faults and I’m no way trying to defend them, but you do not want China ruling the global markets.
Yep, grabbed a 6900xt for my wifes PC build a few months ago here in the states for $400 and got an AIO and some free ddr5 ram with it. New isn’t always worth it. Older cards still have a ton of life left in them.
I just want Hyundai to actually produce the N74.
Lemmy.ml needs to be defederated. It’s a cesspool of hatred and propaganda.
They do, just repubs do it way way more.
I must be missing the joke or something? That’s literally what this is. It’s an AP not a directional antenna. I have used a ton of directional antennas. Hell I have one that I’m using to get my network to my garage which is 1/4 of a mile away.
That’s just an AP. That’s not a directional antenna for a wireless bridge. You can even read the AP sticker on it.
It’s not understandable at all. The telcos took nearly a trillion dollars from tax payers back in the 2000s to get broadband to everyone in the USA…and they basically stole it.
Lemmy.ml needs to be defederated from all other instances. It’s literally an extremist instance of hate and bigotry.
