I'm not so sure that motorcycle emissions are much better than a car's, even if they do consume less gas. Cars have very complicated emissions systems and are under stricter regula…

Exactly right. OP determines value differently than a mega corporation.

I was surprised cause I thought the Focus was fairly reliable. Turned out the post was about an Escape. Title is wrong.

Must be viral if it says so in the title.

Sounds like an Ayreon song.

If they could remember they wouldn't keep making the same mistake multiple times. But I guess no danger of that.

I may be in the market for a new car soon, which I hope to keep for at least a decade, so this kind of thing bothers me. I don't want to buy something that's already years behind o…

I think that's the point - to discourage (certain) people from living there at all. Except it turns out people are capable of never-ending suffering and persevering through it. You…

Grieving for a pet is totally a thing. Comparing its importance to that of a child might be taking it a little far. Nothing would compare to losing a child.

Been using Zoho for years with no issues. Both via the web interface and IMAP.

I thought about this too - own a small electric vehicle for 90% of the family needs and rent a bigger SUV when the need arises. Until you do the math and realize that the 3-4 annua…

My guess is Jerome Powell.

My wife was recently re-hired by a place she had previously left. The director who wanted her back was given a hard time by HR precisely because she had pointed out issues during h…

Especially on the Tesla he drives.

My last problem with pihole was that I had forgotten the root user password on the system I installed it on. Exactly because I had set it up and then literally forgotten it...

Only if you use them in conjunction with an HTML5 supercomputer. (Sorry, I couldn't resist with Nikola in the news again)

Been using opensuse for both my personal laptop and a server for many years now. Still don't understand why it's not more popular.

The vast majority of WordPress sites are static sites with no use for comments.

Only if you already have a narcissistic personality.

Reminds me of the Pilatus PC-6. Another ugly duckling (in some people's eyes) that's a workhorse.
