  • I spent a year on Linux and forgot to miss Windows

    Jump

  • Running windows is like playing with an action figure. You take it out of the box and it does what it's supposed to. Linux I consider more like a Lego set. Sure you have to put some stuff together before you really play with it, but it's YOUR creation by the time your done with it and you can modify to suit your use case. If you have no interest in tinkering with ur OS windows or Mac is just a better option, if you want to tailor your experience how you'd like Linux is the way. I run W11 on my gaming PC because I don't have time to mess with it and experiment anymore. I have played with so many Linux distros but never had one work flawless out of the gate, and always reserved it for my secondary fuck around rigs because if I wanted to fuck around I could but I do want something that i can press the power button and evrything works fine without use of my brain after working a 13 hour day where i might get lucky to play for 40 mins lol. My fuck around time these days is totally sapped by project vehicles and house issues the last think I wanna do is play around in terminal when I have 10k other more important things to do :c

  • True that, but then that service shop could only work on vehicles that are designed to be compatible with that service center. It honestly wouldnt surprise me to see that sort of thing in a few decades for day some Tesla nonsense that they don't want mechanics touching anyways.

  • Yea it's funny I've asked the community before whats the best Linux distro for XYZ and have had all sorts of responses. It took running mint, manjaro, ubunto, pop, tried arch, to figure out that it's a ridiculous question. The community can only help you pick one to start with, but given there's 3 real bases and thousands of choices off each base it's quite frankly up to preference for the most part what Linux distro will work best for you!

  • As you should, your mechanics aren't typically paid to give a shit! Do everything you can on your own I bet you paid for most of ur tools and still saved money on the first 3 things u did if u count what you'd have paid in labor. That and it's good to know ur way around what's likely one of the most valuable assets you own that sees daily use. Being useless is a luxury for the rich!

  • Well the article clearly states Ford is complaining that he cannot fill 5,000 mechanic positions so I figured he's talking about mechanics, especially since he's been in the news for the last 3+ months crying about these high paying tech positions that don't exist LOL. The ad may say u can make 100j a year but that's only possible if you make more than 40 hours a week on flat rate, so these job ads are misleading. Sure if you get nothing but gravy work because your buddies with the service advisor you can make that money, but fuck up with the shop politics or get a rash of shit jobs and a slow month and your not making what they advertise.

  • Repetitive factory assembly of one vehicle and automotive repair share just about nothing besides that a vehicle is involved in both. This is like saying a robot could replace a tailor because robots make clothes in factories, this is something that only makes sense if you don't know anything about either lol.

  • Flat rate encourages bad behaviour and has ruined the automotive field for both consumers and workers, the only winners are the owners fucking us both!

  • I have had to replace a land rover engine to the tune of about 38k$ after a dingus at a chain oil shop drained the transmission then dumped another 6 quarts of oil into the sump. The diesel ran away from being overfilled till it windowed the block with a rod. Nothing is idiot proof! That's why u go go shops that care instead of the cheapest available place, you get what you pay for!

  • Trump Says It’s Actually ‘A Good Thing’ Ford Can’t Hire Enough Workers: ‘You’re Gonna Have a Thing Called Robots’

    Jump

  • Ford can't hire techs cuz they don't pay shit. No robot with any amount of ai nonsense in it will ever be remotely capable of replacing a mechanic. When is it ok to get the acetylene torch out? How does the bolt FEEL as you undo it, is it about to snap? Do u need to pump heat into it and feed it some wax? Did you spill brake fluid on the customers paint? Was the customer concern duplicated before determining what the repair was? Who did the diagnostic work? Was it test driven and quality checked afterward? Was the customer made aware of any other potential issues down the road? Ai and robots may be able to help in menial and manufacturing tasks but would never be capable of repair in automotive, especially not anywhere rust is common !

  • Trump seeks $100bn for Venezuela oil, but Exxon boss says country 'uninvestable'

    Jump

  • No kidding some days I want to put a sign in my front yard labor free oil changes so I can sift the waste oil and burn it like we do at the shop. I live in the mountains so the heat pump does not work well through most of the winter, but I do have a ac/heat pump mini split and in my small home on the chilly seasons abutting winter it can work well instead of the oil but once were buried in snow im back on the petroleum. This summer I plan on having a good pellet stove installed as I need chimney repair anyhow, my friend had offset almost half his oil usage going that route.

    Jump

  • Yea that's about what I've seen 15 or so % toward plastic, then another 10-20% is used for heating purposes (think home heating oil, kerosene etc) not saying we can't get away from it but for example I'd have to completely redo my home heating system to even think about getting away from using nearly 600 gallons of oil for heat a winter, which for reference I use 40 gallons of gas a month to get to work in my car (significantly less on the bike, but it's a snow globe out there rn) and it takes about a half gal of oil to make a gal of gas. Most of my annual oil consumption comes from heating my home, not fueling my vehicles to transport me 250 miles a week on average

  • While I'm not saying our oil dependency is good, calling it a dying technology is a bit silly. Even electric cars have lots of oil in them, nevermind the phone this is being typed from or my carpets or any other number of daily items. I do wonder if some of the unrest around the world these days is partially out of a fear that theres only so much oil...

  • How do I prevent someone breaking and entering a house?

    Jump

  • I have solid wood doors to enter my home, the front door doesn't even have a peephole on it. If somebody wants in their coming through a window. U could put bars on ur windows, then the door returns as the weak point. If ur really worried u could step up and put a steel fire door in (like shops are required to have for fire safety) and one of those properly installed will make ur walls the weak point. At that point you probably should question if ur better off in an underground fort lol.

  • NATO Leaders Issue Defiant New Greenland Message to Trump’s US

    Jump

  • I'm starting to think trump and putin are working together on this- if they keep Europe occupied and distracted the orange man can sneak in and take Greenland under their noses. I hope we're in a spot where we can turn things around for the better, but I fear things are about to turn for the worse globally in the next couple years.

  • Yea shits all fucked up with this. I mean when he merced her, as you would expect with somebody already accelerating, she went limp and hammered down into a parked car. If she was trying to hit him when he fired and he was in her line of travel, he would have been split in half as she smacked into whatever's in front of her. If he feared for his life he would have rolled out of the way and engaged in pursuit after. This is an untrained, trigger happy goon that did not join ice to deport people for any of the right reasons. This is somebody that joined from the get to get "me liberul blood" on their hands with the full backing and faith of the us govt. Not only is it legal for them to take the life of their political opponents, but they make something to the tune of 100k to do it. Calling them political assassins is just being accurate, I mean this pig just did his country a favor by offing a "domestic terrorist" in their eyes.
