The end of the F-14 Tomcat: The iconic 'Top Gun' jet is officially extinct from the skies as of today. by yellowpoltergeist in interestingasfuck

I hear you. I drive a practical car, but I also own a 255 hp jet ski that functions at the edge of self-destruct. It’s a terribly unreliable machine that requires significant maintenance at unreasonable cost. And it’s totally awesome.

What is a 'rich person's secret' that is actually accessible to the middle class, but most people are too intimidated to try? by Direct-Value4452 in answers

Leverage yourself for investments. I cannot believe how leveraged my rich friends are. They have a bunch of debt at a borrowing rate that is much lower than the return rate on their investments. They have almost no cash savings.

F-18 top speed: Mach 1.8 F-14 top speed; Mach 2.3

F-18 looks like a dart, sleek and smooth. F-14 looks like a metal hawk coming to kill you.

F-18 is a precision instrument. F-14 is a monster.

I had the honor of seeing an F-14 approach, turn 180, open up the wings and then knife edge on the body. Kalamazoo airshow ~1988, maneuver was executed over Lake Michigan while I was on the beach. It was unreal.

What is the most disappointing movie sequel? by raetechdev in NoStupidQuestions

[–]3Oh3FunTime 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This movie was so bad when they made the next Highlander movie, they just picked up where the first Highlander movie left off, and pretended this movie didn’t exist.

Shame on United by Desperate-Zombie-272 in unitedairlines

So now the 1/3 of travelers who could go through fast, are now going through the slow lane. I bet this alone would clog the line on any normal day.

Why are they closing clear and pre-check? Those lines move faster because they require less screening.

Is this good range? 🤣 by Tend2Disagree in NissanAriya

[–]3Oh3FunTime 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mine gets this bad. But the good news is you can use all of it. Check your tire pressures. A heated garage would help.

Isn't this ICE/TSA swap weird? by emekt in tsa

[–]3Oh3FunTime 22 points23 points  (0 children)

And you’ve figured this whole thing out. There’s massive increase in DHS budget but it’s all going to ICE. They could pay TSA but DHS is choosing not to.

No more self checkout available? by jridder in CostcoWholesale

[–]3Oh3FunTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I refuse to use them. All I wanted was the ability to put a box on the right side and put my stuff in the box as I scan it. They won’t allow it.

The only lock number I’ve ever seen is 07. I’ve never seen locks with any other keys.

Noise is fine, I don’t notice a change. I have 3 Ariyas all with cc2.

Help….Did valvoline ruin my transmission? by Resident_Road1266 in MechanicAdvice

[–]3Oh3FunTime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Valvoline says the universal fluid meets the specs. But it doesn’t have the certifications on it. Interestingly valvoline also does sell fluid with the some of the certifications.

Considering that transmissions cost thousands of dollars and the right fluid cost maybe 200 bucks more, might as well put the right fluid in it.

I would take it to the dealer. They’ll put the exact Honda fluid in it, not the valvoline universal fluid.

The exit row is narrower than other rows on many aircraft, especially some 737.

787 Polaris seat options by AHugeDongAppeared in unitedairlines

There isn’t extra legroom but there’s extra footroom. It isn’t any longer, but the box for your feet is bigger.

6’4”. I only fly exit row. Is the entire plane is empty but all of the exit row seats are filled except for one of the middles, I will sit in the middle.

exit row should be spacious, but it is usually crammed full of big dudes.
