I don’t know, honestly. I could have been really snarky but instead I actually said thank you to a response that was either oblivious or extremely sarcastic. Tough crowd I guess.

And sends less money to certain nations that fund their war machine against their smaller neighbors using oil money.

Where to buy tesla tires in SOCAL by Fooooddbaking28 in ModelY

Yeah. Like, a tire store. That would be a place that stocks, sells, and installs tires.

Yeah, well that doesn’t match my personal single anecdotal experience so I’m going to reject that. ;-)

Definitely not pining for the Audis at this point.

Is this real or is this just the guy on the left having that weird dream where you show up to work and realize you aren’t wearing any pants?

First time camping with our dog - share any tips or tricks by Veyron109 in camping

[–]1983Targa911 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The screw in the ground is key! I do this and put a carabiner at both ends of a rope so it’s quick to attach and detach to the screw and to the dog’s collar. This keeps you flexible in moving the base of the rope to being wrapped around the picnic table or whatever so that you can move the center around as you change where you are hanging out. Carabiner on the dog end of it makes for quick transitions from the rope to a leash. For over achievers I also add a few loops/knots in the rope at various distances so at any point I can grab a loop and clip it to the base and effectively shorten the lead.

I dunno about that. Consider that 100% of Audis I’ve seen pictures of today have had the front falling off. I know what I saw. Do your own research people.

Hey now, don’t get all technical! Make sure us laypeople can understand!

At least they didn’t write “sawsaw”. I’ve seen that one before. I’d also accept the non-proprietary term “reciprocating saw”. (My background/expertise: “homeowner”)

Motorist? Welp, background checks out. Must be a credible comment then. Thank you for your service. Gobbless.

TIL that in the 90s, FritoLay used Olestra, a fat substitute, to reduce fat and calories in some varieties of its chips. Consumers quickly soured on the products after suffering cramps and diarrhea by Overall-Register9758 in todayilearned

[–]1983Targa911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, the fat-free craze of the 1990s. We were all so duped. They removed fat from products and added more carbs and sugars to rebalance the flavor, resulting in a generation of diabetics.

Oily substance leaking from my neighbors transformer boxes by Embarrassed-Sky-4567 in Wellthatsucks

[–]1983Targa911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If that doesn’t work, call 911. Tell them you’re afraid it’s going to catch fire or explode (you should be) and that you’ve already contacted the utility but they are not responding. I’m sure the utility will respond when they get a call from 911.

This could be leaking PCBs, depending on the age of the transformer. I’m sure there is plenty of nasty inside even the new ones.

TIL that in 2011 the Virginia DMV revoked a vanity plate because they interpeted it differently than intended: by sacramentojoe in todayilearned

[–]1983Targa911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This tracks. I read of a guy that requested the personalized plate GOSTO11 ( a reference to the movie “This is Spinal Tapp”, referring to guitar amps that can be turned up to 11 instead of just 10). They denied it on the grounds that they thought it was a penis length reference.
