I find it pretty telling that my kid and his friend where at home playing on the almost 20 year old ps3, with the ps5 right next to it.

To be fair they do fire up the 5 for that soccer game, but I have soo many games in the cabinet for the 3 that it is a goldmine for them

I regularly go to “La Mañica” in Albacete, where you can get the baturro with a drink and coffee for less than 10€. That bocadillo is bigger than my arm.

Took about 2 minutes to find a two wheeled open seat vehicle powered by a motor (definition of a motorcycle) with most of those requirements. Look up the SWAGTRON Swagcycle. All for about 800€

A step backwards just for changing the pedals for footpegs and adding a throttle control? I think it’s a great step forward, you don’t have to get tired anymore.

Why not evolve all the way and get a motorcycle?

After shooting themselves in the foot for cheating on emissions for a profit, now smooth brain CEOs think that threatening to take the work to a country without worker rights and with cheap child labor is a good idea to recover their image and reputation.

Do the numbers! Check that the range is at least double of that you need. Check if the purchase price makes economic sense. Put priority on wants and needs. Think of resale value, because you never know if some life changing event can happen.

I avoided that bullet in 2017 when my e39 blew the headgasket. It was either a modern EV or hybrid or a cheap second hand gas guzzler. At less than 5000km a year the numbers told me what I needed to know, and looking back, my Mondeo ST220 has been much cheaper overall, fun and dead reliable.

In Valheim it was quite real and comfy at the same time. Weird I know.

It’s sad, but there is such a small percentage of people that care about this at all. When Shimano announced they where going with a new driver for 12s cassettes called microspline instead of using the standard XD from SRAM I said to myself people won’t fall for this crap… but they did. And now we have three different freehub standards.
