Thanks, this looks like it has a RAID controller built in

I don’t want a NAS I want an 8 bay hardware RAID DAS

My car is a VW station wagon, so yes it’s my DD and completely practical

€3 is $3.54 per liter, a gallon is 3.8 liters math that out and you get $13.45 per gallon.

Its entirely possible that she’s lying but I distinctly paying €2.90 during COVID for our two diesel cars.

I just checked Ich-tanke and it looks like it dropped over the last couple of weeks, on the site it say 2.01 so now we’re at $9 a gallon

My daughter is paying (really I am) a bit more than that in Munich, they hit 12 a coulple of weeks ago for diesel.

I have a tune that requires 93. The thing that i find interesting is when I put gas in last week I paid 4.79.

Initially regular spiked while premium didn’t move much, it seems like premium has caught up.

I paid 6.49 for premium today in Ann Arbor.

TIL what WHQL is

Because of course they would sell this data, fuck all these people

I’m a bit older than you, I enjoyed tech when it was an escape and communication/education tool not a requirement even my local library uses an internet connected touch screen to locate books.

I’m tired of tech being everywhere from cars to toasters I still prefer analog things that do the job and only that job.

I don’t need my internet connected fridg to tell me what groceries to buy while selling my data to insurance companies

I’ll probably breakdown and finally get one

The biggest branch in the US Army is infantry and they carry a bunch of shit and move around quite a bit.

Works for me

Throw accurate bullets not inaccurate gas bottles

It was a war ship therefore a valid target

Electric works fine in industrialized suburban blahsville but it doesn’t work well outside of it. Toyota dominates in the non industrial nations so it needs to remain flexible, I wish more auto companies would do blue sky type research

Even sedans have gotten supersized just look a new Accord or Camry vs the older versions. The 3 series is bigger than a e39 5 series the A6 is bigger than the older A8’s.

I own a stick shift Golf Alltrack and I really don’t know what I’d replace it with if it was wrecked, there’s nothing out there at a price I’d be willing to pay that I like.
