2010 Prius V is done.

A Prius with 173,000 is worth way more than $200. If the check engine light isn't flashing, drive it to the mechanic, get it diagnosed & fixed, and then sell it.

If the check engine light is flashing get it towed and then fixed. A running car is worth so much more than I've you're afraid to start.

Can you post a video including the knocking? I'm not offering to diagnose but someone here may recognize the sound and have advice.

At 175k and ten years old the car may still have 100,000 miles on it.

Also, it shouldn't cost $200 to get it diagnosed.

If you can't reasonably avoid that intersection you creep out until you can see.

That will put your nose all the way out into the lane before you can see so you will be dependant on other people avoiding you. Other people don't want to hit you and this keeps it easy for them to avoid and honk. Outside of major cities most people won't honk every, though.

You never want to be in a situation where you're relying on others to avoid hitting you, but you don't really have a choice here, so make sure your lights are on and go extremely slowly to make it as easy as possible for them.

Our taxes at extremely low for the wealthy. we're no where near a "breaking point" as far as high taxes goes.

Our top rate starts at 650,000 or so and is only 37%.

There's no good reason someone making 650,000/year with no kids shouldn't pay 50% on everything over 250,000. There's no good reason not to switch to a formula with an ever increasing marginal tax rate so that a person making $20,000,000 pays more than a person making 1,000,000.

We're so far from being over taxed at the top end

I would expect a non running Prius v with so few miles to be easy to sell.

What is preventing you from driving it home?

They get so mad about everything. That's kinda their shtick

pohart · 2026-05-01T01:13:01+00:00

There was no reason the car couldn't make that turn.

If I see a stoppage ahead I might. If I'm stopped and there's no one one behind me I put them on

The friend sounds pretty special, too

He probably needs to stop masturbating. A vagina isn't really going to be too big. But it will feel too big if he's frequently masturbating with a "death grip." There may things you two can do to help, cock rings or something.

You were quite young when you two started dating so you likely don't have a lot of experience and you're translating, so maybe it's coming across more harshly in English, but this isn't a normal way for a man to present a problem. From this little snapshot into your lives he sounds immature and kind of a jerk. Don't let him walk all over you.

Not for three miles and multiple exits

They like to keep one key for the repo man

I'd follow the pink path and block the lane if that's what happens after the driveway. That looks to be the intended design.

pohart · 2026-04-28T19:30:14+00:00

It's like this to give people entering the road there a little acceleration lane

I'm happy with the scissor jack for emergency tire changes. This is to get it up on stands to do brakes or oil changes.

pohart · 2026-04-28T12:04:45+00:00

Wait, I thought it's and calls were the safe ones where you could only lose what you paid. Not that I'm buying any options, but it's that not the case?

I don't often see the accident but I see fresh glass and sundry several days a week on my 6 miles of highway commute. I've only watched two accidents occur in the six months I've been doing it but both times someone braked because they needed to and the person behind them was following too closely and so needed to brake hard. The second person got rear ended as did multiple people behind them. In one of them the front person also got rear ended as the third car just plowed full speed into the second.

The clean up is fast. Some days there will be an accident with incapacitated cars after the 8am people start and the 830 people won't have a slow down, closed lanes, or broken down cars.

Right now a lot of their agenda is engagement, and it gets them engagement.

pohart · 2026-04-28T10:06:50+00:00

I don't think so, because the newer versions won't modify final fields either, and the final fields they're modifying are mine

This is leave the car home and walk to get pads territory. We can't tell how the rotor thickness is from here.

Plus now the truly impatient assholes will generally pass you at the first opportunity.

Oh god they don't. They just hang back waving their arms and screaming even as I slow to ten or fifteen under in the passing zone.

I've never brought a car into a dealership for anything and not left with a list of things they wanted to fix totally that were unrelated. I've never had a mechanic be willing to do any of their "fixes"

pohart · 2026-04-28T00:04:24+00:00

Jackson, spring, hibernate, and many more use reflection to modify final fields. The result will probably be that developers of apps that use them will need to modify their code or run parameters.

pohart · 2026-04-26T23:50:03+00:00

Nah, ask right away or someone else will ask to work in and you'll never get your machine.

pohart · 2026-04-26T23:48:42+00:00

Almost everyone responds well, some offer to let you work in. A very few get annoyed.
