“I want to be able to use my expensive hardware for the reason I purchased it in the first place” seems like a pretty solid argument to me.

It sounds like a lot of people here are incorrectly assuming you are going to wear the o ring as jewelry, instead of using it as a keeper for your jewelry.

The o rings are the same. Wash them and use them.

Mine is an NA, '95. I really dig the popup headlights. 1995 was a good year IMO. First year with the bigger 1.8, and still had OBD1.

My brother has an NB for years, so I’ve had plenty of seat time in one of those as well. They feel really similar to the NA, with better suspension travel. Great cars!

Preludes are awesome! I’ve got an old Miata that I’ve had for years, similar situation. I’ve thrown a ton of money at it, full well knowing I’ll never see it back. But she’s mine, she runs great, and I have no intentions of selling.

Steps to becoming a car person: Step one - like cars. Step two - pick up a drug habit because it’s way cheaper than restoring cars.

I’m gonna take this opportunity to plug the nuknives u23. As a lefty, finding a utility blade knife that is lefty friendly is near impossible. This thing fits the bill with flying colors. Bonus: They sell tons of replacement parts, should you damage it. If you have a job that’s hard on knives, this is the one for you.

Appreciate you finding the one thing I wanted to know from the article.

I’ll tell ya the secret sauce. It’s so we can easily filter out people like you in public without having to start a conversation. I like what I like, and don’t give a shit what others find presentable.

Nothing quite like being technically correct, and completely missing the point.

Lemmy is my only online presence. I use…

My phone.

Someone mentioned antifa at work the other day, and I said, “Antifa? I’m in. Shitting on fascists has been an American pass time for a century or better.”

The looks of shock and horror on my coworkers faces was quite the sight to behold.

This is such a low effort answer that does not even begin to consider the complexity of people’s lives.

We did one of these in elementary school. One day while I was back in my hometown, I remembered it and decided to swing by the school to see if they ever did anything with it.

The school was bulldozed.

Long live the manual transmission!

I think you drastically underestimate the number of gearheads in the States. Makes sense, given we have incredibly limited public transport. Currently have 3 manuals in my driveway.

The only thing that I can tell happens every update is that I have to tell my start bar, yet again, to show all program icons instead of hiding them. Individually. Oh, and Skype occasionally decides it’s important at startup again.

Almost forgot! My computer also randomly forgets how to sleep until updated.
