It's a skill that most people will need to use often in their lives if you live in the US, at least. Unless you live in a place like New York city and don't ever plan on leaving, you'll probably be better off knowing how to drive. There's a dozen reasons why that are all pretty obvious to most people.

But if you're only 19, never got a license before that, and are dating a guy that's a fair amount older than you are, I'm guessing you just want other people making all of your decisions for you.

I also want to view more than 20 different posts a day...

Just 35 years or so behind the US. Great job, Finland!

Was doing this with my car fob for a while before I finally broke down and re-soldered the battery contact terminal to the board yesterday.

Also doing it to my cars blower fan for the AC. I have the replacement fan motor, but it hasn't been annoying enough yet to mess with replacing.

The online portion of the community that is complaining about all this may be valid, but it's still a small portion of the actual public. Regardless of all the negative press, if this show is good, it's going to be a commercial hit.

There's a reason you didn't hear about them. I never watched the last two that were animated, but 2 and 3 were really bad.

You poor bastard. The 2nd movie was bad, but the third one was bad in such a way that it couldn't even be a "so bad it's entertaining". It just plain hurt to watch.

Mine was Prowler325. It was like 1997 and the sweet looking Plymouth Prowler had just come out.

When you're living in it, you don't know what the future will have. I like my information and tech, but growing up as a kid before all that was pretty sweet. You weren't always after knowing or researching or finding out everything. You lived more in the moment.

There was also a freedom that will never return for anyone. Imagine going places and doing things that at best will only be a story people could tell. No pictures or videos that keep or prove anything forever digitally around. It's something you subconsciously think about now all the time. It didn't used to exist. Also the freedom of being a kid and wanting to go hang out wondering around with friends all day completely untethered or tracked. Just a "be home before the streetlights come on" and beyond that your parents have no idea where you are and can't call you. Getting lost was an adventure.

Ss pans can't stay seasoned, though. You have to redo it every time you cook. Carbon steel allows for some non stick build up.

Bonus for carbon pans over stainless steel is that carbon pans hold their seasoning better than ss. You can't really keep ss pans seasoned. They have to be re-coated every time before using. Outside of "looking pretty" there's no reason to own ss pans over carbon. Cast iron stays seasoned best, of course, but they're heavy as shit.
