I’m aware. I’ve been there. Kinda hard to miss em.

I’m thinking that there was a reason for the change; drilling for oil was blocked in the Gulf of Mexico.

It sounds like a lot of people here are incorrectly assuming you are going to wear the o ring as jewelry, instead of using it as a keeper for your jewelry.

The o rings are the same. Wash them and use them.

You know, I’m not certain on that. Now I’m gonna have to do some reading! I was just happy it had that combo when I bought it.

Just wanted to pop in and say I have a 95 with the 1.8; It’s OBD1.

Hey, that’s a cool feature!

I look at usernames. If it’s one I recognize, I generally don’t engage.

YouTube makes 8 billion per quarter selling ads. I think they will be able to eat tonight.

This is such a low effort answer that does not even begin to consider the complexity of people’s lives.

This is why I chose Mazda. No touch screen at all, just a display for Android auto.

For anyone who needs a reminder, his name is not Ted. We should honor his wishes and stop calling him by his preferred name.

Sure, but at the end of the day, does it really matter? It’s like made up numbers that never run out. He’s still set for life, no real consequence. He feels this less than someone who misses a car payment one month.

Right on.

Actually, yes…when you leave a lot with what you bought, you did, indeed, pay for it.

Their shitty business practices to exploit consumers are designed to favor their decisions as a net gain. And usually, it is a safe bet. An easy win. Hell, even in this case it still will be. Last I checked, they were turning a profit.

When the consumer finds a win, it’s not “getting something for free.”. It’s a small victory for the consumer on a bad business decision by the company. The companies sure use a lot more loopholes than the consumer to squeeze a buck out of everyone. They assumed they would make money giving things away as a deceptive practice. Most times they win. This time, it didn’t work out for them. Oh well. Free market and all. I’ll not be losing any sleep over it tonight.

Why did I create a Lemmy world account as opposed to beehaw or ml? Because it’s the first one I saw. Because it doesn’t matter. Because I don’t know what ml stands for. Because Lenny world said “general use.” Because I didn’t have to fill out an application. Because I can still interact with everything else, and again, it doesn’t matter.
