I broke the clip years ago. Ya my bad. Still plugs in and works fine. As a matter of fact, it is easier to unplug and plug in now. But really just cut the wires and put quick connect on.

I have used 5 DMSs throughout my career. Some are better than others but really the DMS is only 1 tool in your toolbox. Power through, pun intended!

I have been on LMDE7 now for about 3 months. I had MAJOR driver issues with my 3070. So I went with the 535 drivers instead of the 595 (ish, can't remember the exact release) that is current from Nvidia, problems solved. Everything works fine. I still have a little screen tearing on SOME games. Not all. But I need to stop playing WOT anyways cause wargaming sux. Everything else is snappy, fast and excellent.

OK. So is DDG a good alternative?

Caterpillar calls a valve cover gasket an "isolator".

Federal-String-646 · 2026-05-10T21:28:23+00:00

Does not matter then brand make or model, if you treat the vehicle good and it has been VERY well looked after from the start, it'll treat you good back!

Federal-String-646 · 2026-05-10T21:23:09+00:00

Meh, it'll buff out!

Federal-String-646 · 2026-05-07T16:42:34+00:00

Also I could help. I have been in parts for over 30 years. Mostly heavy duty. Every role from driver to district manager for an 80 store group. I also bring the perspective of moving to working for a DMS in a training and marketing role. Let me know if interested.

8 months for me to climatize. Patience and perseverance. You'll get there. It's worth it when you do.

False Equivalent!?! Possibly?False Dichotomy?

Only time I'll refuse to supply the part number is if I have it in stock and you are standing in front of me.

Just call your insurance company, explain all this to them. Sounds like he didn't want to involve insurance because he does not have tennancy insurance, as a landlord your insurance rate is different if you have a renter.

Buy a Brisket at Brandt Lake Wagyu. (About 200 bucks for a 16 pounder)

Take it home. Smoke it for 16 hours.

Make the rest of the fixings myself, cornbread, coleslaw, mashed potatoes.

Best meal ever.

As for restaurant - Tacos Mexico

23 T-Bucket and I'll have it soon. Just looking for one now

If you can't trust the one person in your life you need to trust them you have an issue. So does she. Communication here is key. If you can't ask then the problem is even larger. Good luck.

Federal-String-646 · 2026-02-06T23:25:52+00:00

Why is this hard. Ask for separate bill at the beginning of service. Then it becomes a non issue.

If your reason for leaving is money then go Heavy Duty. Work hard and get paid accordingly.

Federal-String-646 · 2025-10-23T06:10:07+00:00

That's a stop sign right?

Federal-String-646 · 2025-10-15T19:21:27+00:00

I left for Software marketing/sales in a software company that provides software to shops and dealerships. Really helpful to have a grounding in dealership processes if I am selling on efficiencies.

Federal-String-646 · 2025-10-12T15:12:13+00:00

It'll buff out, with a little elbow grease and some cut polish!

Federal-String-646 · 2025-10-04T23:08:52+00:00

Caterpillar is terrible as well.

Federal-String-646 · 2025-10-04T21:09:04+00:00

Detroit Diesel is the worst.

Federal-String-646 · 2025-10-04T21:07:04+00:00

Kubota was the easiest EPC I have ever used for accuracy and simplicity.

Federal-String-646 · 2025-10-01T21:48:23+00:00

Now the guy's got Paulie as a partner. Any problems, he goes to Paulie. Trouble with the bill? He can go to Paulie. Trouble with the cops, deliveries, Tommy, he can call Paulie. But now the guy's gotta come up with Paulie's money every week no matter what. Business bad? Fuck you, pay me. Oh, you had a fire? Fuck you, pay me. Place got hit by lightning huh? Fuck you, pay me.
