MRNA vaccines for cancer, HIV and others. Moderna clinical trials have been real good.

Imagine getting a cancer diagnosis, then 30 days later getting a tailored treatment that eliminated the cancer.

Also vote. Because one party system has decided to side with anti vaxxers. The other has not. Cancer numbers have been steadily rising, second only to heart disease as a cause of death. There is a solid chance you’re going to get cancer.

You know, I think it’s not as bad as this anymore. While one of the best convenient features of EVs is waking up to them charges every day, not having that and having to use public charging isn’t necessarily different than having to get gas.

I do have EVs but I also have a motorcycle. I hate filling it up because where I live waiting in line for the pump is a 15 minute ordeal usually. The few times I’ve used public charging around here that’s about how long it took for me to get it done.

My work does have chargers, but they are expensive so I don’t use them.

Here’s my point:

You have to charge roughly as often as you need to get gas. If you don’t have access to a charger where you live it’s still worth it because it’s so much cheaper, even if it’s slightly inconvenient. If you don’t have fast chargers near you though I doubt this works.

I just went back and looked at my charging stats, and for two cars I’m averaging between $38-$42 / month since 2022.

Road trip supercharger costs are higher, averaging $14 per stop.

I’ve got bad news for you, it’s not just EVs.

Man I would love that! Can we get an EV sports car too? FRS, Z car, Miata… Anything like that.

Counter point, it hasn’t crashed once in my one plus 9 though I wish Swype worked better. I’m super happy to have another option though and am powering through it.

Letterkenny, give your balls a tug!

Going to add to the climate argument, but thrown in a personal realization. I used to only buy rwd manual sporty cars but put snow tires on them in the winter. This was fine until I moved to a location that rains 9 months per year.

It was then I realized heavy torque, rwd was miserable here regardless of the tire choice. I’ve been buying AWD since. But it took me basically a decade to figure that out.

FWIW I still put snow tires on in the Winter, but I ski.

Yeah… Closest thing to set it and forget it I’ve found. I usually buy between 1-7 shares of VTI then a share of SPYG every other week. Been doing it for a long time now. Plus the dividend payout on VTI is really good.

Start buying a few shares of VTI every pay period. Use any left over cash to buy SPYG. Ignore the gains or losses, the market has never not gone up (eventually). Thank yourself later.

Max out your 401k when you get a decent paying job. But make sure you hit every pay period to maximize your employer contribution.

Consider using mass transit where possible, bike if you can, more or less avoid a car/insurance. If that’s not possible get a cheap car like a used Nissan leaf ($7000 in my area, costs a few dollars a month to charge using a wall outlet and extension cord)

Minimize unnecessary expenses like using food delivery services. Meal prep on the weekends and make enough food for a week.

If you do all this for 10 years or so, you’ll be in a really good spot financially. Buying a house will be a decent prospect, your VTI and SPYG will be making money, your taxable income will be small and you will have built up the ability to splurge on things without it making much of an impact on your finances.

I’ve been following the YouTube channel Chris invests and he gives lots of similar advice like this.

Yup, that’s awesome. The first time I played it, I was using a steam deck as a daily driver while waiting for a new laptop to ship. Grabbed the app image and it just worked!

Tbf, I didn’t know about the steam release. But yeah it’s also open source.

I know you requested steam, but beyond all reason is legitimately good and free. Runs on all major OS’s, has a good user base and excellent development.

Beyondallreason.info I think

This toilet is only two years old.

Thanks I’ll give this a try. I’ll see if I can find a replacement part

Ok I’ll give this a try.

A brief search suggests about 30k cars are registered in Singapore every year.

Additionally, the total car population in Singapore at the end of 2023 was 651,302

🤷

This. I live in a busy city. I know several routes through and around it. I need the traffic data. I need it to tell me there is a wreck.

I don’t need to know (usually) how to get there.

I just took a look at your post history. It’s literally only anti-Biden. I hope you’re getting paid…

Sure but… WHO?!
