You can’t drive a larger car on Medieval streets. US doesn’t have that problem. We also don’t like towing things like caravans and trailers behind sedans with bottomed out suspensions. BMW won’t even sell the EU stealth hitches in the US.

I’ve take a mid 2000s Corolla and a 4Runner to 250k. The Corolla was still running with a slight radiator leak. The 4Runner had a transmission banging noise I didn’t want to fix. No salt on my roads and little to no rust on either.

For anyone wondering, a distribution belt is the timing chair (or timing belt in this example). GM has a Duramax 3.0 diesel engine with a timing belt instead of a chain and it’s on the back. People were so angry GM put out a warranty for 5

Thanks. I was trying to figure out if the news is reporting on every little anchor snag or if it is an abnormal occurrence.

BMW makes an PHEV X5 50e with about 30ish miles range and the B58 straight six. Most other options get a dinky little engine. The 5 series also has one that is just making its way to the US, 550e. Typed this before I saw that you said expen

How much of this is news and how much of it is normal occurrences due to shipping or fishing?

The forums say it's for secrecy but I think a die channel attack might make more sense. >Femto can do a partial unlock on original DME or a Full Unlock on a Cloned DME. I guess they might be doing some soldering for the cloned ECU&#

Switched to edge at work and Safari at home/mobile hasn't been a huge issue. Firefox is my secondary. Although I no longer do much web debugging, the switch from edge to chrome wasn't too painful.

There’s exactly one company who can crack BMW ECUs. You have to send it to them and they have a Russian method to do it. Cough, cough, somebody hacked Bosch or BMW and grabbed the firmware keys. They moved to Finland recently for obvious re

Netflix isn’t trying to be a search engine, hardware manufacturer, consumer cloud provider (email, OneDrive, etc), cloud infrastructure provider, and an ad company at the same time. Or an Online Walmart who does all the rest and more.

I have i3-8100 from years ago that supports it and runs my NAS just fine. Supermicro boards support the chip too.

Lots of co-workers in Serbia do this today. Someone gets a fast fiber connection and they run an Ethernet cable to their friend in the building across the way. They both split the costs.

That’s like saying why can’t Toyota made a car that competes with Koenigsegg. One is on the absolute bleeding edge of everything and the other sells more cars than anyone else.

Highly unlikely. The next Governor of my state is likely that person who stood up to Trumps fraudulent voting claims. We will see if the Democrats can find a decent candidate but I doubt it. They used the same person twice with the same res

Most people on the TrueNAS/FreeNAS forums use 10gb Mellanox nics that are sold on eBay. The sellers get them after server gear gets retired.

It’s the same with Brussel sprouts. The bitter taste is gone with new cultivars and it’s for the better.

Candles and incense also kill birds. I think they are also sensitive to air fresheners. Too bad most birds can’t smell very well.
