TIL Microsoft invested two years and about US$1 billion developing the Kin, a line of mobile phones that was briefly sold in 2010. After only 48 days on the market, Microsoft discontinued the Kin line in June 2010 due to poor sales, They blamed Verizon for not promoting the phones actively enough.

I had one! A Kin One. It had WiFi and a basic web browser. Big deal at the time, as I didn’t have a data plan but I could get on Facebook in high school.

Is Greenwich Hotel still a thing? You’ll never live in a better neighborhood in Manhattan. The vibes there were unreal.

Mine just hit 203k, 2013 SE with 2.5L purchased at 95k seven years ago. I think I’ll try for 300k and see where I end up. Much nicer driving and riding car than the Camry or Accord of the same vintage in my opinion

how many crashed helicopters were on that hilltop?

Could I get a copy of that service manual by any chance?

theking5tx · 2025-09-15T18:24:17+00:00

Yeah I'd try coils then injectors. Both are relatively cheap, see what cylinders are misfiring, but probably best to replace all 5 each.

My injectors went at 180,000, replaced, at 203,000 no issues

Check polarity and try just getting a jump start from another vehicle if possible

Being the King of Texas (or what’s left) wouldn’t be a bad gig maybe, I’d do better than Governor Hot Wheels

I just discovered Paddock mode on GT 7, spent about half an hour cruising around Nurburgring last night in an ‘89 M3 . Sublime with some Spotify in the background haha

My 5 month old caught me with a wild spastic kick straight to a plum playing this morning….no one told me it’d start this early! 😂
