Ah liter bikes surprising folks, name a more iconic duo... Glad you're ok.

Rental car for South island NZ, MG Excite. Unfortunately we'd just had a hybrid in North island NZ, and had been spoiled by it's good fuel economy and responsiveness, amongst other things.

This car had a label insisting on 95, not just 91. In NZ, fuel is fucking expensive, let alone premium. It also felt like we were filling up every day or at least every other day, whilst back up in North island we'd filled once every three to four days.

It also handled like a turd, wired android auto was unreliable and crashed all the time so we had to reset the head unit multiple times a day, its driver assist was way too fucking interventionist and couldn't be disabled without being at a complete stop (said it could do it if below the speed limit but always said you were above it??)...

Just terrible.

It's precisely that they should be treated the same that I don't believe they make a good example as someone you wouldn't want to be associating with.

You shouldn't care that mates of yours hang with ex-cons, so there is no conflict to be had there.

I wasn't remarking on the incidence rate of fascists, merely commenting on their views.

Ex-cons might not be the best group to use in your example...

If I had a friend who kept the company of fascists, I'd probably drop them real quick - notably as the current iteration of fascists are intent on ensuring people like me are dead or ground under their boot.

On the flip side, just because I had a disagreement with someone doesn't mean other friends can't be friends with that someone - it takes a lot to be called "an enemy" of myself.

An e-civic would be phenomenal...

Not much smoking, enough that you're a bit taken aback when you travel to Europe/Africa/Asia and it seems like everyone smokes there.

No smoking allowed indoors, and I feel like there's fewer smokers gathering at the 4m mark away from doors.

Is that 5x actually better than the 10x in previous models? :/

We went with their black and white MFC which also does double sided ADF scanning... and I recently had a bit of FOMO when a colour MFC went on sale (ofc, for like three-four times the price, and at that price I might as well just print colour at a local print shop).

The airpods looked ridiculous. Now they're a fashion statement. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Stolen credit cards, buy legit keys, owner of card does chargeback, actual retailer is now out money and a key and can get penalised for the chargeback.

Might as well pirate it instead because the devs definitely don't get the money.

But he GETS us, yknow??? vomit

Alternatively, people with more time sign up and shitpost. I recall every summer break Redditors would complain. 🫣
