My neighbor just finishing building a go cart using a motor from a washing machine.
He said he is going to take it for a spin later
It’s a great feeling to see what you’ve accomplished instead of leaving the computer looking exactly the same at the end of the day as when you arrived.
I recently left all large group chats.
There was simply no way to keep up, not even with one.
My DMs are much better now: a few smaller groups and direct DMs.
If I left one of yours, “it’s me, not you.”
The Epstein files will never be released because the entire fucking government would collapse. They are all guilty - if not directly, then they were complicit.
Change my mind.
The most common EV question... "But what if your battery dies?"
Dealers often quote owners $11,500–$15,000+ for a complete, installed replacement L87 when it isn't covered. EV is in a similar cost range to an L87 engine swap - often $10,000–$17,000+ out of warranty.
Modern EV battery full-replacement rates (outside major recalls) are substantially lower than the documented failure rates for the L87 engine, and lower than gasoline engines in general.
Battery replacement is overblown, just like these L87 engines.
It Took GM More Than 28,000 Failed V8s And Three Internal Investigations Before Recalling Its L87 Engines, the standard engine in Escalades, High Country Silverados, full-size Denalis, the trucks that people spend the big bucks on.
Seems these engines have defective crankshafts causing catastrophic engine failure. Over the past six or so years, owners of high-trim half-ton GM trucks and SUVs have reported engines conking out, sometimes at alarmingly low mileage.
Glad to hear these engines are finally getting recalled, but its going to take quite a while to get all those engines replaced.
I have even heard that some of the replacement engines are going bad also.

I told a customer today that his car needed the brakes replaced immediately.
He said no problem, as bad brakes have never stopped him before
