We one time payed for that (probably not an option now) years ago and have used it ever since. Works great. Not open source, though.

Yikes. I would never eat there again!

Logically, the heat used for drying should kill any germs. But why risk it.

I rinse mine in the toilet bowl when it has bleach based toilet cleaner in it. That alone keeps them pretty clean.

There were stories a few months ago of “Christian’s” storming out of churches for the sermon being “woke”. They were quoting the Bible.

We usually fly AA on flights to Europe. We live near KC, so our choices are AA or United (IIRC). And we prefer AA’s time schedule. Outside of major cities there is little choice to many destinations.

Those taking first class are often traveling on a company’s dime or using credit card points.

My parents GM car did something similar. It was a seal just under the windshield.

Depends. Is there goal to actually win games? I am not sure it is.

Cars actually make more sense in low density areas. Farmers need to get around. Urban areas should rely mostly on public transportation.

The computers actually make them easier to work on. They monitor and throw codes when things go wrong. A Google search will usually give a list of probable causes. I have troubleshooted and replaced some unusual parts because of that ability (e.g. shift position sensor). And the computers rarely fail themself.

I live by nearly the same rules. No more than 3 years max, and a check in my pocket from my credit union. But I not afraid to go older if the vehicle is on hood shape and reasonably low mileage. Vehicles depreciate for age, condition, and mileage. I will take the savings of a 5-7 year vehicle if the condition and mileage are great. But they are hard to find, it often takes a couple months of looking.

The taxes from dense cities cover maintenance for suburbs. They are subsidizing them. There are neat 3D tax maps that demonstrate this (that I can’t seem to find).
