if they complained about something real it might actually have hurt amazon. so they didn't do that. things like the power draw. or, like, any of the things that AI is actually used for that are bad. water is a perfect complaint for making your opposition waste their time on bullshit

Ok, it’s definitely a short person thing. It’s not nearly as bad on a cyclocross bike. But swapping brake cables for hoses helps a ton even when you have more room to work with. Easier to do whatever with them.

And of course it’s really 1.999/gallon.

Seeing some people saying Wu could jump into this thing but a) there’s no way she’s gonna do that, she just got reelected as Mayor and even an “easy”primary isn’t something you wanna do 2 years in a row b) presumably Wu runs for Warren’s seat in ‘30 as her anointed successor.

Doesn’t look like Joe III wants to take another crack at this but he would definitely have a chance if he did (and if Pressley stayed out).

It was 100% the price of bread that was the most jaw dropping.

But the key there is buying commodity cars so you don’t end up in a deep hole. We have an Accord and a Corolla, both paid off.

It’s true, but we’ve bought new the last couple times and the peace of mind is so nice. Definitely not financially optimal. Though also not as bad as it used to be, used cars are shockingly expensive now.

It’s right up my alley and I kind of want one but $50k-$60k+ for a new car isn’t really my thing.

If there were actually old ones available I would say Crown Signia but that’s still a brand new car.

Yeah I wasn’t really asking you, I’m just baffled at the idea that commuting doesn’t count toward mileage.

How does commuting not count!?
