Double space :(

Otherwise I love it

CIRA is absolutely based, as always.

Unfortunately Valve is a US company, but I’m willing to put that aside to shaft Nintendo and give Linux marketshare a boost.

Yeah it’s a first for me as well

n e v e r get your oil changed at the dealer or at a quick lube place. Never. Stop it. Please.

They don’t care about your car, they will round off your drain bolts, and they will charge you up the ass for it and give you trash quality oil and filters (if they even change your filter at all).

I got an “end of warranty” inspection at my Hyundai dealership thinking it’d just be a quick thing where they look it over for anything they could cover under warranty, and they changed my brand new oil and oil / cabin and intake air filters without asking me first, and charged me $400 for the pleasure.

My independent mechanic charges me $110 for an oil and oil filter change using high quality synthetic oil. He tells me what he puts in/on the car, and he shows me on the car if there’s anything I need to know.

Also, changing your air filters is dead easy on most cars. Just do it yourself, and check them every 6 months.

p.s.: transmission fluids are not forever fluids. Get your CVT fluids changed every 100,000 km.

And for warranty purposes, you want receipts and a “fall guy” if anything goes wrong.

You can document your own work and keep your oil / oil filter / crush ring receipts, but some dealerships will fight you on it.

Heck yeah, friend hugs are awesome

Look into the Shavian alphabet

They’re crushing Spanish in their own country.

The US conquered land from Mexico some centuries ago, and thus there’s a large population of monolingual Spanish speakers in the south of the country.

Didn’t you hear? The world is only made up of Canadians, Americans and The Chinese™

Yeah, with OP’s attitude - skill issue

No, I manually replaced the words one by one with what I thought it was supposed to be, only then was I able to understand your post.

No offense, despite your points being valid, I can’t understand your broken English as it doesn’t read out in my head.

Translation in case others struggle with reading this reply:

I don’t know if this is the point of the post, but I’m pretty sure the comic is generated.

My reasoning, in case anyone cares:

• Painting isn’t the same in first and last panel
• Small imperfections in the ears in the second and third panel
• Second and third frame look almost identical, but are not. It doesn’t make much sense to redraw a scene when it’s exactly the same… at least to me.

So like— what is the point of this post? AI image bad? I agree, but is there another point?

EDIT: Sorry if it was obvious to everyone that the comic is fake… to me it was not, so I thought I share what I see.

Given the context, it wouldn’t be surprising if the comic was at least partially AI generated.

I think their request is fair, we come to Lemmy for news rather than old information, though a reminder of how much we pollute without necessarily collecting extremely fresh data is also good.

Indeed they are Canadian, but there’s unfortunately nothing consumers can buy from them at this moment.
