I had to look that up, because it didn’t sound right. Turns out it’s 248.93 pesos per day, not per hour

You picked a car with a small engine (for its time anyway). I don’t think a 64.5 mustang was ever considered a fast car.

He came and he went

The engines I’ve seen with hydraulic lifters do not have anything to adjust.

Unless you’re talking about cleaning out the oil ports when they start to stick, but I wouldn’t call that an adjustment.

Could you give an example? I’m curious

(Not a professional, just interested in cars)

I wouldn’t say the computer adjusts the valves, variable valve timing serves a completely different function than an old fashioned valve adjustment.

It’s true that most lifters are hydraulic nowadays, and self-adjust by filling with oil. So your point still stands, it’s just mechanical, not computer controlled.

My 2017 Honda V6 does require valve adjustments, but I doubt many people actually do it themselves though. And most people probably don’t have it done at all.

I thought MacOS being the most user friendly was its only claim to fame.

Aren’t cigarettes like $15 a pack there? That probably has something to do with it.

Every microwave I’ve had, you hit the power button then the number corresponding to the power level you want.

Same with the Lexus rx330

Then what exactly is your last comment supposed to mean?

Disturbing that you have to be a citizen to vote? I thought that was a given.

Yes, I am aware that there are a few municipalities out there that allow non citizens to vote, and I’m not necessarily opposed to that, but I do find it strange.

I certainly wouln’t move to another country and expect to be allowed to vote without being a citizen!

Inflation IS the result of supply and demand (and other market forces such as the velocity of money).

You would need a mechanism to control the value of the currency to prevent inflation. Maybe an institution that offers loans could achieve this by adjusting the interest rate.

It would have to be a government entity, you wouldn’t want this responsibility to be in the hands of anyone with a profit motive. Maybe some kind of reserve bank operated by a federal government. We could call it the Federal Reserve.

For most herds of sheep, the average is four.

Money hasn’t been printed, but for the bookkeeping, 3 individuals who have contributed a total of 200 dollars, have in their accounts 380 dollars.

Person A’s account: $100 Person B’s account: $100 Person C’s account: -$180

This does not add up to $380.

For here or to go?

So what’s the solution? What should the Democrats have done? Pay Mark Zuckerberg to run left wing propaganda? Prop up a bunch of am radio talk shows?

I don’t have answers, but it’s hard to imagine what specifically they did wrong. This might have been inevitable, maybe they screwed this country up to the point where there is no winning move.

With light bulbs, there is a trade off between longevity and efficiency.

Efficient shorter lasting bulbs are the superior product, they save the consumer money (at the expense of the inconvenience of having to replace them a little more often)
