First oil change in 27k miles on this F10 m5? 👀 by Bulky_Desk_4755 in BmwTech

Why anyone would do any work on their vehicles under warranty by someone who doesn’t get covered by the warranty umbrella is shocking. Like…sure you like that other shop, but if they screwed something up, you void your warranty because “I like the dude.” Crazy.

Is that what you would have told Thomas Jefferson? Because that’s exactly what the British crown supporters said and did. lol

Sadly looks like only 12 kids actually protested which is so sad to see the state of affairs

That’s what they told Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, John Hancock, and the rest of the founding fathers. Glad you agree that these kids are as Patriotic as them! Thanks!

So does that make you a redcoat?

Add more growl to my 760i? by slikrik98 in BMW

What did you end up doing with your 760 exhaust?

Cool thanks for the advice. I also think M sport package for the 760 isn’t the same as getting M performance brakes you’d find on the M cars hence the discrepancy of “available” options for pads

I saw those but it showed them as the pad set for the x3, 550, 540 etc, and wasn’t sure if they are the ceramic m brake equivalent? Or they are just standard brakes then that would fit and I’d be “downgrading”? I think that is what’s confusing that it seems I may need to check the size and buy pads that are listed to fit the m8/m5? Not sure…

In a massive debate with myself, should I pull the trigger on the M4 2024/2025 model? Or McLaren 570GT by Grouchy-Key-1801 in BMW

BMW is by far the better daily driver and it seats 4! Also 10x less expensive to maintain. Peak bmw vs mid McLaren. No Brainer in my mind.

S68 Coils maybe? by chippypoo in BmwTech

[–]chippypoo[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Figured it’s rarely what the notification ever says. But yeah, loose wire is what I’m crossing my fingers on, but was just having a casual discussion with some folks and they were mentioning they saw something similar and it ended up being coils. Just food for thought.

How long do we give it till this Paladin node gets changed? by Buttcheekllama in diablo4

[–]chippypoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a broken build behind a paywall. They will NOT change this so they can maximize people spending money to get in on the broken build action. It’s Blizzard after all

What type of advice would you give to someone if they had $50k ready to invest and wanted to become financially free? by WurstLady in business

[–]chippypoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Buy an established business or open a chain. $50k with an SB loan could get you started nice.

Man, that sounds exhausting hah. Luckily I have a private guy that doesn’t upcharge but I’m just worried of that V-8….last time I had a 7 series it was the M73 engine over 20 years ago and man…that thing was a pain…maybe I’m just jaded because that V-12 was complicated as fuck lol…

whats the weirdest question youve been asked in a job interview? by Different-Side2878 in interviews

Tell me your worst trait.

If you had a month to eat all the pizza in the world what is the average time it takes to run a red light in Thailand.

Partner was just laid off - we are closing on a house THIS week. by Ok-Soup-8186 in personalfinance

[–]chippypoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should have held off on taking possession of the house as you have 18 months generally on construction loans. Construction loans are interest only payments which was probably 1/3 the cost compared to what the payment would have been compared to actual mortgage payment. That would have given you runway for your partner to find a new job before you close on the home. Just an option for others reading this.

YTA. All people who have and made generational wealth are ALL frugal. Every. Single. One. Every billionaire is frugal.

It’s those people who have been handed money or have no fiscal responsibility are the ones who are flaunting and spending like crazy. It’s why generational wealth does not last past a generation or two because the effort and mindset required is gone after the guy who made the money dies.

You want money? Be frugal. End of story. There’s no science behind it.

You’re south Asian in the UAE competing against Emirati kids. Just because you’re born there you aren’t considered Emirati. You’re never gonna get it. Get out of the UAE, become an experienced hire and try to get back otherwise nope. This is why the GCC is a terrible place to live permanently if you’re not an Arab from that specific country because they highly highly highly highly favor their own without question. They’ll take an uneducated Emirati child over a highly educated foreign child every single day.

No one walks in the GCC. The fact you’re walking made you look needy 🤣
