  • Honestly thank God.

    I was really worried about how this was only going to drag down Honda.

    I used to love Nissan. They made several of my dream cars.

    Unfortunately it’s been quite some time since they made anything very good imo.

    Currently have a reputation of meh reliability and meh driving experience.

    They don’t offer anything to entice someone away from Toyota or Honda.

    I hope Nissan can come back but idk how they do that without a serious overhaul of their whole business from the ground up.



  • First computer I ever used was probably some crusty old gateway with windows 95.

    I pretty much only had access to my parents old desktop computers until I hit highschool when they bought me some dell POS that could barely run cs 1.6 in windowed mode.

    First PC I built myself was a 770 and some first or second gen i7 that my buddy sold me for 20 bucks lol.

    Been building my own computer every few years since. I am currently on a 3080 and i7 10700k that I have overclocked on all cores to 5.2ghz.

    I’ll probably build a new system in a year or two when the 6000 series cards drop. I am foolishly hoping that Nvidia has some change of heart about pricing by then lol



  • This must be why all the shows feel like they were written by a high schooler. Constantly repeating information like the viewer isn’t paying attention. Constant visual AND auditory exposition.

    Netflix and streaming as a whole enjoyed a brief reign at the top, but unfortunately they never learned their lesson and we ended up right back where we started.

    Too many tv channel packages=more sailing of the high seas. When they made it so almost everything could be found in one place for a small fee we all rejoiced and many got off the ship. But then they went right back to too many channel packages (just now in the form of a hundred individual streaming services) and now we return once more to the high seas.

    Nope. These people are going to continue to froth at the mouth with every tiny little comment and joke Trump makes for the next 4 years just like they did for the last 8 years.

    I didn’t believe TDS was a real thing until I saw it happen to my own family. Normal, logical people turn into obsessed psychos whenever Trump is even mentioned in passing.




  • Yeah at some point you just say fuck it and limp along until the problem is big enough that it’s time for a completely new house or you move.

    In our situation it’s one of those things where it just doesn’t seem worth it to properly address because if we are gonna have an electrician cut a bunch of holes in our walls to redo all the wiring we may as well have a plumber cut a bunch of holes in our ceiling to insulate all the pipes they installed in the ceiling crawl space without any insulation. And if we have them cutting holes in every wall and every ceiling we may as we lost have them tear the whole goddamn house down and start over properly lol.





  • What’s the famous quote? “Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.”

    I think there is a certain accuracy to that statement, but I feel it also fails to recognize the human element involved. We know history now. The average person today knows far more than anyone in the past knew about history ever and yet … We continue to make the same mistakes as a species.

    Some people just want to make change regardless of direction. We feel restless when things are going too well for too long. Even if it’s bad change we seek change regardless.
