To be clear to those just reading your comment without clicking through to your reference, the engine is not plastic. The block is still metal, as are the internal parts, but there are a lot of plastic bits all over joining things together (cheaper and perhaps planned obsolescence). Too many parts on the engine being plastic obviously makes for reliability issues (as your link describes).

You had me in the first half, but the second is icing on the cake.

I don’t think so. In another post it scored Newsweek credibility as “High”.

I don’t agree with that assessment, but still appreciate seeing what the bot says.

The sheer absurdity of labeling an organization with “United Nations” in its name as a terrorist org is astounding. At what possible point would someone there ask, “Hey, do you think it’s us who are the baddies?”

Likely never, but it does make me wonder.

The private trackers I use have stipulations stating if one of your invited folks breaks the rules you get punished as well. Makes it a very selective process choosing whom to share with.

It does have SponserBlock. You have to tick the box to enable it. Is it great? No, but it served me well enough whilst traveling so as the only option it works. I won’t use the default app. I don’t really watch too many videos on my phone. I wait to watch on a pc at home where I have better quality and control.

Piped works on iOS. Invidious perhaps as well?

Maybe the bots are Isabella Rossellini fans?

It’s certainly a bit thick on the memes, but it’ll flesh out as it matures.

I think we can agree the alternatives we’ve found have been much more positive overall.

But here you are prompting me! It is smaller here, that’s true. I’ve been commenting just about as much as I did before (12yr/2k), but I take issue with the latter point. I was just reading the recent thread on the double slit science experiment and there are smrt people here too (certainly not me, of course) with depth/breadth of knowledge just like the before place. That’s my take anyway. I browse All a ton too.

The biggest thing I’ve experienced is that there are more forthright folks here and fewer trolls. Though I do still see too many combative and/or simple ashholes. Those are the ones that prevent engagement for me. Wrestling with a pig and all that.

Sorry to tell you that Trader Joe’s has adopted an anti-union stance. So, not as awesome anymore.

It’s an AppleTV show under the working title “Constellation”.

Yes, and please close that bathroom door to save us from that smell!
