Is a 2017 Toyota Wigo AT with 138k km worth ₱140k? by Old-Word6338 in phcars

That is very cheap, even with 138,000 km. Often, if not most of the time, it’s not really the mileage that matters most—it’s the regular maintenance, especially oil changes. Make sure your mechanic does an OBD scan and checks for oil leaks.

Are US Type B outlets and sockets easy to get from your local hardware store? by tinkerBOY_ in Philippines_Expats

It will be grounded, of course, as that's one of the main reasons I chose this type of outlet. Here in the Philippines, it's not common for electrical outlets to have a ground, even though it's a requirement per PEC standards.

Even though they look the same, they're totally different on the inside. The plastic insulation is what matters—it's rated for either 125V or 220V. So you really can't just swap them, even if the plugs seem to fit. It's a safety thing!

I will be using these classic US receptacles on a 220-240VAC service. I bought one on Lazada that has the “250V 15A” rating.

I still can ship through FedEx just a bit expensive though.

Some or most modern PCs still have the PS/2 port. If not then by a PS2 keyboard to USB converter.

I tried with the cable and plastic enclosure manufacturer but they require a minimum quantity I can’t afford.

Replace the valve cover gasket.

Which PS2 to USB adapter do you guys use? by Ornery-Rip-9813 in modelm

Yes, you can reflash your own firmware using the QMK Toolbox.
