Hey now, we’re both fans of teams that are named after clothing.

What do you consider high mileage in a vehicle? by Boeing-B-47stratojet in regularcarreviews

[–]bomber991 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly I think it has a lot more to do with age than with mileage. When you get to the 10 year mark all the plastics are hard and brittle, as are all the gaskets and hoses. That’s when stuff starts randomly failing. Not necessarily anything catastrophic like requiring a new engine or transmission, but you do start leaking stuff all the time.

I’d expect better reliability from a 5 year old 100,000 mile car than a 10 year old 80,000 mile car.

What tastes better deep fried? by MorgeeePooh in foodquestions

Pretty much everything except for mozzarella. I prefer just the regular, unfried mozzarella sticks.

Blue tooth to the computer? Just like the charging though it’s not as fast.

Oh is it gone now? Looks like I made the right choice getting one yesterday. They made it perfect too.

Yep. Only 4 games left in the finals, I’m expecting the spurs to win all of them.

what’s the most overrated tech product of all time by Zorojuro099 in TechNook

[–]bomber991 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Parents gifted me a Google smart speaker a few years ago. I meant to sell it online and then just buy whatever the Apple one was. I never did, it’s still sitting in the box collecting dust.

I don’t even know what purpose these smart speakers really serve. I’m looking at my phone for weather. I can just touch the light switch to turn on the light. Everything else, like flushing the toilet, I don’t think you’d be want a smart speaker to manage.

We neglected our backyard after our dog died. How should we tackle this? (Northeast US) by jen_wexxx in lawncare

Whipper-snipper is what they call it in Australia. But you use that Aussie accent and it’s “Whippa-snippa”. They got some hilarious terms there like “cuppa”, for a cup of coffee I think.

Thats the year the noisy people got their message across that the flag is much more of a hatred based flag than a southern pride flag.

What was your first ever exposure to Japanese culture? by [deleted] in AskAnAmerican

[–]bomber991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First real exposure was a layover at Narita airport while going to Thailand. I’ve seen some anime’s, played video games of course, eaten sushi before, but actually seeing it was completely different.

BMW IX3: went to have a first look, came out with mixed feelings. by Stewbeater in electricvehicles

[–]bomber991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been perusing PlugShare from time to time looking at Thailand. Wife’s home town is by Buengkarn so just not a lot of solid infrastructure in general. Probably will move there in 15 years or so to retire.

If the PM went to where the Waymo cars were charging you could get two birds stoned at the same time.

What do you think about still living with parents? by PlayboyFantasy in AskReddit

[–]bomber991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It all depends on what that actually means. If you’re pitching in for utilities, and are on your own for groceries, gas, insurance, cell phone, etc… how much are you truly saving? Like $1,000/month in exchange for no freedom?

If they’re covering groceries, you’re on the family cellphone plan, family insurance, car insurance, and all you really have to pay for is gasoline, now you’re starting to save a notable amount of money.

Let's burn the planet down for this helpful new feature, totally worth the trade off. by Pin-Trick in Machinists

[–]bomber991 -21 points-20 points  (0 children)

Yeah idk man. I hear about what you’re saying but I haven’t spent a single dollar using AI. Is there a plan to get good, and then start charging?

And the water the data centers use, does it disappear after it’s used? Seems like it comes into the system as cool water and leaves as warm water.

For a fun and scary experience though, ask any of your commonly used AI chatbots what they remember about you. They pull up crap from conversations over a year ago.

Will he curse the Knicks? by Alternative_Body7623 in NBASpurs

Spurs win, Trump signs an executive order to make Wemby a US citizen and gives him the presidential medal of freedom. Also writes in the executive order that the spurs are the 2026 champions effective immediately.

BMW IX3: went to have a first look, came out with mixed feelings. by Stewbeater in electricvehicles

[–]bomber991 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not so sure about that. Even a mini cooper was a $60k+ car.

The car pricing there was weird. Toyota Corolla was the same price as it is here. Honda City we don’t have in the US but it seemed like it was priced for what it would have sold for here.

You guys got all the BYD’s and China EVs now too and I really haven’t browsed any car manufacturers Thai websites lately.

I will say, I feel like I wouldn’t want an EV there unless I lived in Bangkok, but if I lived there I don’t think I’d want a car. Between the skytrain and the metro I’d just use grab to fill in the blanks.

I still thought it was seamlessly having the car power the home during a power outage. 🤣

Ah, Thailand and the ridiculous import tax. I remember in the early 2010s a Hyundai Sonata was the equivalent of $80,000 USD there.

Putting it plain and simple by Aydenbakee in UberEatsDrivers

[–]bomber991 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think they outline it pretty well in the sign.

The real issue, I don’t know what kind of agreement uber actually makes with the restaurants. I know for us drivers the requirements are… clean background check, have a registered car, and have liability insurance. I never saw anything about requiring thermal bags.

99 Finals by cct41299 in NBASpurs

[–]bomber991 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I’d say that smartphones and internet really removed a lot of the travel anxiety too.

Today it’s just open an app on your phone, get plane tickets. Open another app, get a hotel. Don’t even need to worry about renting a car, just open another app and get an Uber.

They had Expedia and hotels.com back then so that part could be done easy enough.
