I’m totally done with windows down on the freeway and have been for ages. If I’m driving < 45mph, it’s 70-80, sure. Had a few cars with AC that crapped out on me over the last couple decades, and that was when it was time to dump them.

I drive a Tesla now, and I make FULL use of the climate controls in that thing.

Didn’t grow up prior to the 90's did you? It’s the 4x60 AC unit. 4 windows, 60mph!

If you’re stuck somewhere without much to help, go find a ton of sticks. Line up a zillion sticks in front of and behind the drive tires (the ones that turn in cars without traction systems, or both/all of them) like little log bridges. A few feet each way is ideal. Kick the sticks under the tire to wedge them in

Paid advertising or we wouldn’t see all these advertising words.

This will likely dramatically interfere with, if not completely block most of the higher frequency bands (read “all consumer wifi”). While you’re likely not grounding the ferrous dust in the flooring, it’s still a very nice setup for a faraday cage.

Rules are rules

That’s entirely fair. Now that I think about it, I forgot about the fact that I lived in Florida for a while the closest thing to a hill being a freeway overpass.

While with some somewhat granola friends, I pointed out that a lot of the guys at the really big farmers market where we used to live were just pulling crates of produce out of their truck that they got at the same place that supplied local grocery stores.

Spin bag, place open end under loaf. Done

Everyone should know how to downshift to slow their vehicle. It should be standard for all drivers going down long hill/mountain roads.

Addendum for #4.

This has been going on for months. My brother has to park on the street, and in the last four months has had to pick up his Hyundai at the impound TWICE. After the first time they put a steering wheel immobilizer in the car (the club) but that didn’t stop them from jumping in for a second ride.

I forgot the SB was going on, forgot about the party. meh

I still have the originals. I wanted the Wii trilogy, but found out that the quality of the games was reduced so passed on it. I literally just finally purchased an HDMI converter for my GCN so I could play these games on a newer TV. Which was also $40...

F-Zero GX on the GC was pretty sweet. Not sure I could dedicate that kind of time to a successor these days but I’d keep an eye on it.

Advance Wars was indeed a good game, and as much as I love strategy games I SUCKED at Advance Wars. LOL, like, I was AWFUL.

Yeah, that will happen if you’re not sweating it out. I generally start my day by making a full pot of coffee, around 11 I switch to water. After lunch I often have the final cup of coffee in the pot (I’m not above microwaving coffee that wasn’t burned) and keep drinking water into the night.

ABSOLUTELY

“I’m not eating <thing> right now” is always met with “oh, but you can cheat” or some similar attempted hamstringing! I can maybe count on one hand the number of people who didn’t follow up with some attempted short circuit to the temporary phrasing. 

My personal water intake is as it needs to be. I drink 2L of water most days because I’m very active most days. I also drink a bit extra when I’m bored-hungry and combine it with unsweetened banana chips.

One of the easier things I’ve done when I need to cut things out for whatever reason is change my internal monolog from “I can’t” and “I have to” to “I don’t” and “I always

I don’t eat extra sugar
I don’t drink soda (diet or otherwise)
I don’t drink during the week
I don’t miss workouts
I always eat a giant bowl of

A ride with a specific size limit isn’t really “excluding” anyone when it’s about safety, space constraints, etc. Unless some guy in a board room said “If they look fatter than Mario, they can’t ride”, that is.

Free ride or just cannot afford the service. Someone logs in at their house and doesn’t log out, they enjoy some shows for a while, then it’s cut off. They never have the money to subscribe, so they don’t.
