@strypeyWork led me looking through minutes for landfills. Lithium battery fires are not uncommon. Disposable vapes are a very common source, especially given they usually have significant charge left at disposal.

@strypeyBest I remember about this was when it was being discussed maybe 20 years ago, in the context of blindness.They interviewed one guy and he was fully not into it, at least for the time. He'd gone blind for one reason or another."I remember watching Pong and I don't want that".I don't know where they are at to with sight yet, but doubt it's much better. And with the possibility of having Pong vision, cybernetics isn't particularly inspiring. What's more, the upgrade pathway would be fun - no more ISA support...

@jackyan @epilonious @ATLeagleYeh the paucity of manuals is most upsetting, of course here all manual1980 Civic 5 Door1994 or '95 Nissan Sentra' 05 Ford Mondeo stationwagon'07 Daihatsu Sirion, legendary 1.0l engine' 05 Ford Mondeo sedan (boo, but for the same cost as a tank of petrol)Next, well as you can see I'm not so picky on age so could still pick up a manual relatively easy

@jackyan @epilonious @ATLeagleYeh my engine is getting a tad tired, but actually a fair bit is down to the clutch which is becoming slippy.The wife's Hyundai however failed warrant on a brake light going.Turns out it's the LED that went, necessitating the whole light unit be replaced. It is spendy expensive.

@jackyanI think ebay is spendy tooCar otherwise goes fine, but it does low k's generally. And is an automatic. At least it has a proper gearbox - some are terrible

@GruffHarding @jackyan If I had the skills, it could be fun. Alas I am limited to the level of changing a filter

@jackyan @GruffHardingI found another green car - a bit suss because had one a a courtesy car and performance was significantly below my 1.0L Sirion. Albeit the courtesy car was a nasty auto teamed with their nasty 1.3L engine 😬If you hadn't guessed, colour is a bonushttps://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/hyundai/getz/listing/5686754070
