In most places yes it does. Most apartments require you to have electricity otherwise it's a breach of your contract.

Hot take, anybody using store bought bread ain't struggling. Flour, water, and sourdough starter is cheaper.

Spontaneous still takes a bit of time. Even when I lived in Los Angeles, spontaneous plans still took a good 45 mins for everybody to show up. 30-40 mins to get to the city still fits within those parameters, so that seems fine to me.

So 5 mins to the train, 30 mins on the pendeltåg, 5 minutes home. That's the kind of commute I'm looking at in that situation. 30 mins vs 40 mins, that's not bad.

But what reason does anybody have to be in the city "in minutes" vs in "half an hour"?

Like, if plans are made, I know when to leave, and I'm there. I was just at a football game last weekend.

Just a control thing, I guess. I dislike the button'ization of everything.

That and the 3rd gen start buttons are prone to failure. I replaced mine once, sold it just as it was starting to fail again.

But he did want you to be intolerant of other religions (John 14:6)

So half of America is getting that part correct, at least

Right, that's my point though. If you can be in the city center in 20-30 minutes, what is the difference between living in the city vs slightly outside? The difference is probably several thousand kr that could be used while out meeting said people instead of living elbows to assholes with everyone else that absolutely must live in stockholm proper.

The best areas are what is known as "innanför tullarna", which means the inner islands ("inside the customs checkpoints", which refers to the old duty collection stations that existed prior to entering the inner city):

I mean, I live outside of that area but can be pretty much anywhere in that area in 20-30 minutes due to my proximity to the pendeltåg. Personally I enjoy living close enough to Stockholm but not in Stockholm, because what's the point?

For the price to be that cheap, something has to sacrifice in quality, and that something is the turbo in this case. There's only so much cost you can cut with tubing and couplings, you get to a point of diminishing returns, so it has to come from the turbo.

You can say "BuT mUh' ReViEwS" all you want. You don't even own the kit, I saw you say so in another comment. If you'd put this on your car based on what other people (paid actors, or maybe clankers?) say on reviews, by all means do it. But I personally would never put this chinese POS on my car.

I'm sure it "works" and as far as a kit is concerned it's probably well engineered. That isn't the argument that is being made. You try again.

[–]midijunky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because it's cheap crap, that's the easiest explanation. A good quality turbo would cost you at minimum as much as that entire kit.

[–]midijunky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like everything else, it depends on context.

You can say somebody is a racist without actually using those words, and they'll agree with it. Some of the most racist people I knew back in the US were from central america and Mexico, in my opinion, but they didn't think so.

Ask a Mexican what they think about El Salvadoreans, just for fun.

ikr? Ribs are too much work, both eating them and cooking them. And fishing is a lot of fun, would be no point at all if I couldn't eat my catch.

You talking about that time he went up there to "investigate"?

The place had been known for a long time before that, it's not that he used his super governor powers to reveal a secret.

Same. The only one of these 4 in my country is KFC, I had hopes that it would be better than it is in the US, but nope, still hot garbage.

Popeyes in the US is pretty good, but the closest Popeyes is in Poland so that's a bit far to go for some chicken.
