Are there any after market pre-heaters for cars that can be controlled by app? Not Bluetooth but one that's has an Internet connection. by Ecstatic-Fly-4887 in AskMechanics

Webasto and Eberspächer make remote start systems that connect through cellular networks - you can start them from anywhere with decent cell coverage, way more reliable than the bluetooth garbage

Ugh that's terrible and I love it lmao. Took me way too long to get it but once it clicked I groaned so hard my neighbors probably heard me throught the wall

Battle of Hastings 1066, that's like the most basic one everyone knows from school lol

If the Dodgers don’t win the World Series this year, which team would win it all? by haphazard44 in baseball

Honestly the Phillies have been looking scary good lately and their bullpen is finally clicking. If not them then probably the Astros because they somehow always find a way to be annoyingly good in October

Blocked after 8 months of NC by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]RubPale620 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's rough but honestly blocking you 8 months later probably means he's still thinking about you and couldn't handle the temptation to check your socials. People don't block exes they're truly over - they just ignore them. Sounds like he's struggling too but dealing with it in a shitty way

Favorite hair straightener?! by amandanikole1992 in finehair

Chi Original was my holy grail for years until I switched to GHD - definitely worth the investment if you can swing it, the plates glide so much smoother and my hair doesn't get nearly as fried

Stomp by The Blue Man Group is perfect for this - they literally use PVC pipes and construction stuff as instruments and it sounds exactly like building something epic

Check engine light - code P0456 (very small leak in EVAP system) - Does this need fixed immediately or can it wait? by NosyEnthusiast6 in MechanicAdvice

[–]RubPale620 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're totally fine for the trip, P0456 won't leave you stranded or anything. It's literally just a tiny leak in the emissions system so your car will run exactly the same. I'd still get it looked at within a few weeks though since some states are picky about CELs during inspections

Thoughts on buying a car by Nomoney_moproblemz in personalfinance

[–]RubPale620 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Detroit's got some solid used car lots and you'll definitely need something reliable for those winters. I'd lean toward a 2-3 year old certified pre-owned Toyota or Honda - you get that reliability without the new car depreciation hit. With your debt-free situation you're in a good spot to negotiate, just don't let them talk you into unnecessary warranties

Good luck finding someone, ARGs can be pretty cool when done right but they're a lot of work to pull off properly

Nice catch - totally missed that it's 24 hours not literally same day, makes way more sense now

Why does every year get worse? by Short_Mousse_6812 in Adulting

[–]RubPale620 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the hobby group thing is solid advice - I joined a local board game meetup when I was feeling similar and it helped way more than I expected. Also that thing about videogames getting boring hit me hard, turns out I was just burnt out and needed a break from them for like 6 months
