My 3.2 vw passat had 250k km or 155k freedom units and it worked like a dream. It even had the much feared dsg gearbox. I only swapped it for audi a4 because I got bored with it.

Cars are unique, get one that was properly maintained. You will hear a lot of “avoid germans, get a toyota” but I had 0 problems with my previous vw and audi, while my family and friends all had japanese cars and spent ridiculous amounts fixing them. A car’s history matters the most. Oh and stay the hell away from anything french.

To me it seems like it’s THE best option to play ps2 games. Can run them at a bigger resolution and saving states can be used as a little cheat

I discovered pcsx2 (ps2 emulator) a week ago and have been playing granturismo 4, so happy!

I live in one of the coldest places and most of us don’t have air conditioners, but in recent years summers have been uncomfortably warm. I got myself a cheap portable AC and I keep one room cool, it only uses 400W so it barely affects the electric bill. Wet underwear and ice cream help too. I have a small fan with a battery when I need to be in the kitchen.

I remember getting detention on first grade for telling my classmate that a whale had beached here in finland. It happened, it was on the news. Same thing again after I told my classmate about some asteroid that is going to kill us all. On 6th grade the whole class was given detention for not having music books with us because the teachers had decided to change the schedule that morning.
