I'm always dreaming but rarely change vehicles, unlike some of you here... (2mAn)

I chase my dreams lol
My current piles of junk, subject to change

06 Jetta TDI -Daily
86 190e 2.3-16 - Weekend car when kiddos are joining (someday)
66 Lotus Elan - Solo escape vehicle. Just me & the little machine

Wifey has her own car too, a Jeep GC that has never been off-road....naturally

After looking through Northern's most recent car thread updates, I'm curious what everyone's current stable looks like. Seems we're the people who are always looking for more cars to fit different purposes. I'm always dreaming but rarely change vehicles, unlike some of you here... (2mAn)

1. Project car - e30, never ending project, may run this year, more likely next year
2. Daily - Ram 1500, just as rusty as the e30 and has 220k miles, looking into replacing this for something newer within the next year or so
3. Actual reliable daily - Wife's Toyota Highlander - reliable but also at 270k miles.

I was served this video as well haha.
Probably because I watched his dishwasher, window awnings, and Peltier module mini-fridge videos. They were good too.

I watched that a few days back, it was an interesting video! In fact, I've watched most of his content just to learn more about how things work. It really is a great channel, even if he does repeat himself a little.

There's a chrome extension I use that brings back the dislike button and dislike count

as far as I understand, it's not a real dislike count - it takes the ratio of like:dislike and multiplies it by the total like count.

[calvino]

I never understood why they've done this. Removing dislikes or just never having them. Like, I really appreciated finding a youtube video tutorial, then immediately seeing the significant dislikes, and moving on to find a better tutorial. Now I have to read the comments, only to realize this video got recommended due to its comment activity, rather than what the context of the comments are. Like, jesus, that makes no sense, bad videos shouldn't be recommended based on how many people comment about how crappy it is.
If I'm extra irritated, I'll report the video claiming misleading or dangerous information or whatever.

People need to know when their stuff sucks.

Youtube needs to bring back the visible dislike count. Actually all social media needs a dislike. Add one to my work Teams channels too while we are at it.

I don't know if yours is just more locked down than mine is but we can react with any emoji in the list on teams. We've had fun with that, including the clip art of the shark captioned "we got sued"

UI, better and better every iteration. At least we have a like button so we can feel validated or whatever.

I hate that I need to click the little round button for "Go to first new post" or the little square for "Go to last post" or it always goes to post 1 lol

WRONG

Almost 13 years later..

Still holding on to the past, boys.

Gotta know, did you have a calendar alert to let you know when to respond, or just figured you'd start reading from the beginning again?
