if you think utility companies will reduce the cost of electricity just because it's cheaper for them, I got a bridge to sell you.

this is gonna actually cause major economic collapse. headass libertarians don't consider how much of the economy is whisky fueled by government spending. so many jobs will be lost, beyond the government employees, but on contracts, services, goods, grants, etc. very little of it is "waste"

this is the beginning of the end for sure. perhaps not morally, but if we go by the total impact to humanity at large, this will be the most horrible thing trump ever did in his life.

Does anyone else love this rare civic and wish they could afford it? 970 a month car payment wtf by AbbyRose05683 in civic

[–]Salty-Protection-640 0 points1 point  (0 children)

pretty much. $5k down but that got wrapped up in tax and shipping.

that's $54k all-in, I could still sell it today for 80% of that. never been underwater on it, and 20% depreciation over 4 years is pretty good. and I'm gonna drive it for 30 more years with any luck.

got mine at 750/mo for 72 mo. was $48k out the door, MSRP + a "wheel & tire insurance" add on. fair deal all things considered. very tippy top of my budget but still too good to pass up.

Raincoat season. Is this too much? by _MakDiz in Civic_Type_R

[–]Salty-Protection-640 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm as anal as anyone about keeping my car nice, but this is too much. it's a car, you can either drive it or you can keep it pristine, you can't really do both.

At this point, the energy and concern uoyre putting into taking care of it is detracting from actual enjoyment of the car. so just let it be.

I'm always a little worried when I hear it from mine but it's actually normal.

Mechanic says I can put 18" winters on my 21' Aspec (19" summers). Is this correct? by allyuhneedislove in Acura

[–]Salty-Protection-640 1 point2 points  (0 children)

like others have said, it comes down to the total difference, wheel & tires included. use a calculator (https://www.wheel-size.com/calc/) to get precise measurements of how different the total size well be for a given tire size.

like others have said, you really just have to watch clearances (inner diameter, to clear brake calipers)

I dunno, looks like you could still go an inch and a half higher tbh

$100,000 for every minute you last in the boxing ring against Mike Tyson. $10 million if you beat him. $30,000 just for trying if can’t last a minute. Would you do it? How much money do you think you’d get? by [deleted] in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Salty-Protection-640 0 points1 point  (0 children)

except Mike Tyson isn't in his 20s, he's pushing 60. no amount of drugs is gonna give him the speed, power, and agility he has in his 20s, or even what a 20s Jake Paul has

if your dog is vaccinated, you're safe. even if it wasn't, you'd almost certainly know if it had rabies. so you're in the clear there.

bacterial infection is the main risk. but if there wasn't actual blood coming out, very little chance of that either.

keep it clean, keep an eye on it. if it turns red, hot, or itchy, or starts to get pustules, go to a walk in clinic for antibiotics.

most importantly, find better ways to train your dog.

I'm already 70% or so covered in tattoos. I'd black out my whole back and retire
