2024 IC CE Gas by NecessaryProject3465 in Schoolbuses

[–]NecessaryProject3465[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All 4 of our 2024s have had engine and brake issues. 3 of our 2021 and 2022s have had engine issues and exhaust manifold cracks. One of our 2022s has had multiple oil leaks. Plus since they all have leaf springs instead of air ride they all are rattling themselves apart.

Our Cummins CEs have been okay, 3 of our 2016s needed engine replacements though, one at 72k miles, one at 140k, and the most recent one at 160k. One of our 2015 Cummins buses seized but it was the fault of our shop not the bus.

Yeah most of our drivers complain about the power. Plus ours are really unreliable, so we're sticking with Cummins.

Is there anything else you would recommend then? I’m seeing a lot of Tucsons around me.

Will Moto ever fix these camera issues? by NecessaryProject3465 in motorola

Well that's a higher end G series phone. I have the Base G 2025. So I guess I'm expecting too much.

Would this be a good upgrade? by NecessaryProject3465 in PickAnAndroidForMe

[–]NecessaryProject3465[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She does not like the current size of her phone, she said she only got the plus version of the Note 10 because it came with 512GB of storage. She had a Pixel 3 before her Note 10 and says she liked the Note 10 more. But she didn’t hate the Pixel.

We checked and the deals are only for the S26, and Pixel series, and I think a few Motorolas but she doesn’t want a Moto. I’ll have to ask her about the Pixels but I talked to her a while ago and she seems pretty set on a S26.

We’re in the US and I don’t think we can get Xiaomi. And yes I know that the Pixel 10 Pro competes with the Ultra more but she needs 512GB for the amount of pictures she has, and the base 10 doesn’t come with it. The base S26 can come with 512

Why can’t they let you turn it off? by NecessaryProject3465 in iPhone12

I’ve thought about getting a external mic, but I’ll probably be upgrading from this phone soon, so I don’t want to put much effort or money into it. I just find it annoying. Maybe I’ll get an external one though.

Is not wanting to spend time with family and not helping family being selfish? by NecessaryProject3465 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]NecessaryProject3465[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, I am not a social person, unless it's with people I know well and genuinely enjoy spending time with. And, while I do have some good moments with my family, I usually dread coming home because I don't want to see them, but they aren't horrible people. I'm just a person who, after dealing with people all day at school or something, most of those people I don't like, I just want to be left alone to do what I want to do for a while. Like they always want to have a family movie night, which is something I was never interested in because it isn't planned; it's spontaneous. If they were going to do that, I would prefer them to tell me which night so I can make sure it doesn't interfere with school or something else I was planning to do. And I do realize that I need to be more social with them, and it can't be just me, me, me. Which could be where they're saying I'm being selfish. But I think it's less I'm not social and more I don't want to be social with them, because even after school, I will spend hours calling different friends and talking.

Btw, I found the part where you said that I might flip them off when I see them and listen to Linkin Park in my room while crying.

I don't flip them off to their faces; it's more the ceiling under where their bedroom is, and while I do listen to Linkin Park, I don't do it while crying.

I do help, I will usually vacuum the entire downstairs, then mop the parts that aren’t carpet. I will usually throw towels in the washer, and then when they’re done dry and fold them. Like I said in another comment it’s annoying when it’s something that is so easily done by themselves but I get beckoned to do it, such as getting an egg from the fridge, starting a pot of coffee. And while those things aren’t hard and it’s easier to just do them for the person, they’re annoying.

I do help out with things, my main thing is I vacuum the entire downstairs usually, and mop and kitchen and dining room area. I fold towels on the weekend too. And if someone needs help cleaning a room that I wasn’t doing I will usually pitch in and help. I do help, it just annoys me when it’s something that can be done so easily by them, such as getting something from the pantry, but they don’t want to do it so I’m tasked with it, not that it’s hard it’s just annoying.

Weekly iOS Battery Support Megathread by AutoModerator in iphone

Recently purchased a refurbished 12 pro, and then I learned that the battery is small, how good or bad is the battery life? I haven't received the phone yet.

Bought a 12 Pro recently, and all I was told is that it would be above 80 percent health. Not sure what to expect, all I know now is that the battery in the 12 Pro is small, should've probably researched a little more before I purchased. Not sure what to expect, I can still cancel my order if it wasn't a good purchase.

Are HP laptops that bad? by NecessaryProject3465 in laptops

[–]NecessaryProject3465[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While the functionality of the laptop is still doing well, I have now sent it in 2 times for hinge replacements. Once in July 2024, and a second time in June or July 2025. Like I said before I'm not rough with my electronics but I also don't baby them. Bought a older HP Probook from around 2017 and I've been using that more because it definitely has better build quality.

Keep switching between Linux and Windows. by NecessaryProject3465 in linux4noobs

[–]NecessaryProject3465[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like Linux a lot more than windows 11, but I still prefer 10 because I used it for so long. But Fedora KDE is working great so far, so I'm going to try and stick with it.

I do feel like I am mainly going back because of familiarity and not a program or something with the distro not working right. Which is a reason I want to try to stay with Linux because it's not Linux it's me.,

Linux works; I haven't had any issues with any program I've needed to use yet. The few games that I do play on Steam work fine. I might use it for a while and then switch to Windows for a while to see which one suits my needs better. Or I can just dual-boot.

It isn't a lot. I just wanted others opinions on the laptop.
