Duped? Complicit

Much want

I took one look at the open evse instructions and noped the f out. I’m not an electrician nor trustworthy to do that level of work. I wouldn’t trust most home gamers to wire Ethernet let alone 240/60amps.

2001 Subaru Impreza 2.5 rs silver - glider 2008 Subaru WRX STI white - bar of soap or the sti 2006 Honda element silver - bento (Japanese for box) 2024 vw id.4 Black - ghost, because it was gone for a month at the dealership after we purchased it.

Which do you like driving more? And which do you think is a better / more reliable car?

I was locked in on the id.4 for the price, I ended up getting the car for about 31.5 OTD, for an AWD pro, after 7500/3500/1000 in incentives, so the mach e or other EV’s were not really in the conversation. We had looked at the Kona, but it’s too small for our use too.

The 24 has some updates that prior years don’t have. So far I don’t mind them. I’m really still adjusting to the car and trying to get it set to my liking. Lots of little things which are odd. So much light in the cabin at night.

The UI is still really distracting while driving in general. In my old car, I could defrost, or dial the radio with out looking, I could adjust heat direction or put on defogger without thought. This is far more attention requiring.

But, I like the car. Far from perfect, but light years more advanced than the 15 year old sti it replaced. Faster too.

No I mean vw gives electrify America 500 kWh charging for the 24’s, unlike prior years with free 30 m sessions for 3 years

I was a little surprised at how expensive it was, and I’ve only got 500kwh of charging… But that’s why I got l2 at home.

That last comment I feel, even if I’ve only gone a short distance.

Ill take un neutered over neutered One time over subscription

This subscription model of life just sucks.

I’m impressed. I’ve got a inkjet that Is about 18 years old. I have to occasionally wipe off the print head, but otherwise has never needed repairs. The ender 3 we have has needed replacement parts from heads to hot ends and feeders, and every print requires specific to it setting. I can print to my hp using generic drivers without a second thought. 3d printers are far from that level of ease of use/ reliability. I’m glad your stuff worked, but that’s the minority.

Some of this is intentional by design. Shedding head count through willing attrition.

This is like common practice here… talk about something. But don’t actually link or post it

Primary her.

This isn’t your situation, but this is how we did it while living very paycheck to paycheck. Plan and budget. We had a plan for everything. It hurt, but we planned our store trips, our meals were the sales and manager specials. We knew how much gas we were buying and which kid had birthdays and gifts to buy for, and we shopped ebay gift cards and scrapped by. We also made hard decisions, and it sucked. We cut cable, and other non essentials, we almost never went out. We were able to plan a path out, we refinanced our house, by taking a title loan on my car. We consolidated our cc debt.

What I’m trying to say is, you find a way. Maybe you can work towards a promotion, or a new career. Or find a different living situation which would be cheaper to help sort it out. Try not to lose hope, try to find a path to prosper. I’m pulling for you.

There has to be some numbers around this…

It’s possible that we could reduce regular use, yet allow those with accibility issues to continue to use the alternative. This can work in tandem to help address the real problem accumulation of single use plastics. Not using a straw is a valid solution for the majority of use cases.
