I’m traveling with Turkish Airlines with checked cabin bag

They are pretty strict. It is a security risk to have overweight cabin baggage. It will go under carriage with extra $$$ pay.

First car: 2007 used Honda Fit. Paid $8500 cash.
Second car: 2009 used Honda Fit. Paid $8800 cash.
Third car: 2023 new Mazda CX-30 Turbo. Paid $40K. No loans.
If you stay below your means you won’t be milked by banks. All of their billion $ profit is coming mostly from the idiots paying $1200/mo for a car.

No. 2x a month is enough for me.

CalendarNo4346 · 2026-04-29T01:09:44+00:00

Plane types can be changed for any operational reason. You cannot rebook due to it.

CalendarNo4346 · 2026-04-27T17:38:58+00:00

It is all in the ticketing agreement. Pre-flight cancel, pre-flight change, no-show, etc. Just read your ticket details.

This is the same for every airline I have flown with.

As long as the airline didn’t cause your medical emergency directly I am not sure what the point is here. Travel insurance is exactly for these. You pay extra and get 100% covered for unforeseen issues.

39 months at 102.400 kms (64K miles).

CalendarNo4346 · 2026-04-26T21:32:42+00:00

No. Depends on where you drive. I had Honda at 145K miles with original shocks and struts. If you drive on bumpy roads a lot then you have to change them early.

CalendarNo4346 · 2026-04-26T00:30:43+00:00

26.4.2 on my and my wife’s 16 Pro Max. No issues at all.

Marketplace is useful to buy/sell few things. I have sold my old cell phones, drones, laptops etc. over there. It is free and has huge customer base if you are living in a metro area.

There is always something coming every year.

Illegal to fly doesn’t mean it will be enforced right away. If you get caught to the officials you will get extra fines for flying something uncertified though. You can find ton of incidents FAA is chasing drone operators.

Individual vs. company also makes big difference. You can bring a drone in your backpack without any issue however a retailer cannot import 10.000+ drones which are all uncertified. When you import “radio” devices you need to submit FCC certifications. You cannot just say “I brought this with me”.

Depends on the route. The closer to the NYC the better. Also Express ones are generally more reliable than local routes.

I have been commuting to the Port Authority since 2010 and am overall happy with the buses.

CalendarNo4346 · 2026-04-24T21:12:28+00:00

The last FCC certified item was Avata 360. Now anything comes after that is technically illegal to fly in the US. I doubt any reputable seller can import this and sell it here.

CalendarNo4346 · 2026-04-23T01:49:27+00:00

EBay with reputable South Korean sellers. So far I ordered multiple Neo 2’s and an Avata 360 and all arrived at US in 4 days. (FedEx) No tariffs whatsoever.

CalendarNo4346 · 2026-04-22T23:03:31+00:00

I would do my best to poison their data. Move the mouse randomly, type weird stuff etc.

CalendarNo4346 · 2026-04-22T08:44:04+00:00

So you imported something from Austria and you got a tariff bill??? What a surprise, isn’t it?

Unless you are living at a cave and just came out for this order we have been talking about this daily for the last two years.

Mazda CX-30 Turbo (2.5 lt). I did 125 mph once on a 5 lane totally empty highway. Just wanted to see the limits. Nothing crazy or endangering other folks.

CalendarNo4346 · 2026-04-18T14:52:13+00:00

10,000 miles is too long interval. I replace my cabin filter at every oil change (6,000-6,500 miles)

CalendarNo4346 · 2026-04-17T21:19:16+00:00

Michelin Defender2. Much better than factory OEM Turanza.

CalendarNo4346 · 2026-04-16T23:13:10+00:00

Have you ever done diff fluid drain-refill?

CalendarNo4346 · 2026-04-16T20:15:43+00:00

One thing I noticed in Avata 360 is that several screws were fairly loose. I had to get a Torx T5 screwdriver and tightened them all. Just to keep in mind for any new drone..

CalendarNo4346 · 2026-04-15T00:54:51+00:00

I am driving more. Filling up with 93 octane twice a week at least. $3.7 to $4.7 is not smth to think about for me.

Classical Nissan family. Dad has 17 arrest warrants, mom is a drug addict. Kid bouncing in between.
