2023.06.02 13:05 Cultivate88 Lengthy Macbook keyboard Repair Process at Apple Store

I just went through quite a lengthy (several months) keyboard replacement process for a 2018 Macbook Pro 15" and thought I might share a few things I learned along the way.
TL;DR
  1. Keyboard replacements at the Apple Store include the Keyboard, Touch-bar, and Battery (at least for my MBP 15).
  2. All costs were covered by Apple, but in case you're curious, the invoice listed $100 for labor and $578 for parts for each top case repair (more on this later).
  3. After 3 repairs for the same issue, there is an opportunity to get a replacement.
Part 1: Store Visits
First time I went to the Apple Store late last year I mentioned the sticky keys issue which the employees were able to quickly reproduce. I also mentioned that my battery was having issues since I was getting about 1% percentage drop every 2-3 minutes. They ran their diagnostics which didn't find anything wrong, but the Apple employee was pretty upfront and mentioned that the top case part that they replace would include the keyboard, touchbar, as well as the battery. I got my replacement back after 3 days.
TBH, I was pretty excited to see a nearly brand laptop - the keyboard was fixed, however the battery issue got worse after the replacement dropping 1% every 1-2 minutes. I played around with it for a week to see if I could reproduce it. Brough it to the store and they were quick to spot the issue and offered to replace the entire top case again for free. Got it back, and unfortunately no-go. The store employee mentioned I should call an Apple Specialist since senior advisors could help me debug more serious issues.
Part 2: Specialist Calls
  1. Specialist 1 asked me to run power cycles and download a diagnostic to record logs.
  2. Specialist 2 suggested I try another power adapter (and actually sent me a new power adapter to try).
  3. Specialist 3 asked me for screen recordings and more diagnostic logs to send to engineering.
  4. Specialist 4 mentioned that had I gone back to the store a 3rd time for the same battery repair that I had an option to get a replacement.
Throughout this process I realized that my Macbook was consistently draining 1% of power per minute while just browsing on Safari.
Part 3: Resolution
Well it ended up being a fairly complex hardware problem and the issue is resolved now, just wish it hadn't taken a few months.
Make sure to document (down to the day-level detail) your interactions with an agent because sometimes they switch case numbers on you and you really need to track what happened and when if your support case becomes complex.

2023.06.02 13:05 skinnybees Shitty planning & Gapped both ways

Got taught a lesson in the consistency of habits over last few days.
With the recent theme of streams highlighting being in some of the companies we use, I had a look at Nike, especially as Kaz has mentioned a number of times that Nike is well positioned for Web 3 and digital goods.
Had some levels drawn up but not a thorough plan, more a general idea. Noticed that retail had been rekt for a week or two while tech pumped, so set some alerts.
Market open on Wednesday and Nike gapped down into a level. Ended up taking a shot during the session despite it clearly not being best of breed. Managed to cut some and decided to sleep, had stop set for rest of session.
Used the next day to clean up my Notion thanks to Yonas amd realised how disorganised my page was. Pre market had an impromptu concept call which led me to the introspection of my organisation being lacking in Notion & that isnt a fundamental that bodes well for trading. At this stage pre market my remaining Nike position was up pre market.
Market opened and Nike gapped down under my stop and I had to manually close. Pissed at a poor decision costing R’s, as it seemed obvious not to be holding something in a downtrend overnight. Checked my levels and further realised I had missed another obvious one which corresponded with the area gapping down into.
Shortly after took another entry, with clearer picture and plan in mind. Managed to cut half and recoup something. Figured I’d better close the position fully before sleeping rather than risk getting gapped again if the trend continued.
Woke up today to a full short position as I hadnt deleted my original stop after I manually closed out. Price wicked the order to the cent, activating the short just before close. Nike also had some news and is currently gapping up a few percent so copped it both ways
Just shows a good idea on a good level when put in place with vague planning and preparation can lead to compounding mistakes, and they are the fundamentals of a shitty trade.

There's a leader board number I place of the player icon usually but this player has 3 stars instead of his number? Anyone has ever come across this or knows why it's this the case here?

2023.06.02 13:03 ikeeteri I'm stranded out of state with no access to my money

I don't know what sub to post this in but I need to ask for advice somewhere because I'm running out of food. I'm out of town for work at an air bnb and I've lost my debit card and they've sent a new one in the mail but they would only send it to my address 5 states away. I'm going to have family mail it to me when it gets in but I'll be totally without access to money for another week and a half. I have no US Banks in the state I'm currently in (Florida) buy I do have access to zelle and my routing/account number. Is there anything I can do to access my money?

Standing Strong Through the Storm Day 70
https://preview.redd.it/lgg452qner0b1.jpg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=23cc7bf7a9976cb4d14adf88693c0c0d7d96cf7c

CONQUERING THE FEAR OF DEATH

I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. Galatians 2:20
Fear of dying is the number one universal fear for human beings. Virtually every fear has a relationship to death and a connection to dying. For example, why are we afraid of flying? The plane may crash and we may die. Here are seven scriptural principles that enable us to conquer our fear of death:
  1. God is in control. Read Psalm 91. (Mark 4:35-41; Phil 4:6-7)
  2. Focus on fearing God and dying to self. (Acts 5:29; Galatians 2:20)
  3. We are strangers and pilgrims on this earth. (Hebrews 10:32+)
  4. God always brings good from evil. (Genesis 50:20)
  5. The enemy can only harm our body, not our soul. (Matthew 10:28)
  6. Absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. (2 Corinthians 5:8; 2 Timothy 2:11-12)
  7. There is a crown of life for the faithful to death. (Revelation 2:10)
Co-workers had just finished an SSTS seminar on the island of Timor when a young pastor suddenly jumped up and proclaimed before all his colleagues “Now I am ready to die for Jesus!” These were no idle words. Every single pastor attending the seminar was directly or indirectly impacted by the massacres on the island of Ambon. Many of their churches had been burned and several had lost loved ones in the attacks on Christians.
As the meeting concluded, our colleague saw that young pastor making his way towards him. “Your being here has inspired me to go out and share the gospel in other areas,” he announced.
“I am happy to hear that brother. Where has the Lord called you to?” he enquired.
“To Ambon!”
“My brother, are you sure. This is like signing your own death certificate. You know that most Christians are fleeing the massacre and you want to return?”
His response was simple and without pretense. “If I don’t go back to tell the people about Jesus, who will do it? I am willing to give my life for Jesus!”
RESPONSE: Today I will live prepared to die, and die prepared to live!
PRAYER: When I fear you, Lord, I fear nothing else—even death. Today I pray for those who do not fear You and thus fear everything else—especially death.

2023.06.02 13:01 House_of_Suns /r/QOTSA Official Band of the Week 22: ZZ TOP

Sometimes a band gets so big that they somehow outshine themselves. They reach a point in their career where it does not matter if they release a new album or not; fans just want to see them tour. No one gave a damn that Led Zeppelin had not released a new album since the 1970’s; everyone just wanted to see them play again at the O2 Arena in 2007. When The Who played the Super Bowl halftime show in 2010 they had only released one new album in 28 years, and no one cared. And no one cares that Guns & Roses aren’t making new music. They still packed arenas to see how much cake Axl had packed into himself.
We’re going to take a dive into a blues power trio from down south who have zero need to release any new music, since their recording career stretches back over five decades. They had amazing and groundbreaking success in the ‘70s, the ‘80s, and the ‘90s before hitting the max level. Instead of playing to win, they now play for fun. Their sexually charged lyrics and videos inspired generations of teens to both dress better and worry about their fly. And you can bet that their fuzzy, bluesy tight sound had a huge impact on our very own desert dwellers.
It’s time for us to take a walk with That Little Ol’ Band from Texas. This week’s featured artist is the legendary ZZ TOP
About Them
The Power Trio is a tested and true format for a rock band. Lots of examples come to mind: Cream. Rush. The Police. Biffy Clyro. King Buffalo. Them Crooked Vultures. (Wait a sec. Just three members? Clearly, not everything is bigger in Texas.)
There is a member joke there somewhere, but I just can’t get it to come. Hmm. Perhaps it will come if you play with it a bit.
Hey! Stop that. Get your mind out of the gutter.
ZZ Top’s original and founding member was William Frederick Gibbons. Born in Houston in 1949, the front man was originally a drummer but, after studying with Tito Puente in New York City, picked up the guitar at age 13. His dad was a musician in show business, which allowed Billy to get an insider’s view of the industry. By the late ‘60s, he had been in and founded a number of bands and had even befriended the late great James Marshall Hendrix. One of his first bands, a psychedelic/art house band called The Moving Sidewalks, toured with the Jimi Hendrix Experience. This meant that Gibbons was actually mentored by Snagglepuss himself. They also toured with The Doors, where Gibbons saw the legendary self-destructive band somehow manage to rise above conflict and make music every night. The Moving Sidewalks generated a following all of its own with a couple of hit songs, and things seemed to be headed in the right direction.
Things were going absolutely great until bassist Don Summers and keyboard player Tom Moore were drafted into the army to fight in Vietnam. Don't you just love the ‘60s?
Gibbons and drummer Dan Mitchell added a new keyboard player, Lanier Greg, and tried to make another run at it. But the chemistry was all wrong. Gibbons rechristened the band as ZZ Top (an homage to BB King), and declared that he wanted more of a straight up rock approach than the art-house kaleidoscopic sound.
Gibbons, Mitchell, and Greg (isn’t it weird when last names are also first names too?) recorded the single Salt Lick in 1969. This generated a bunch of interest and a recording contract. Decisions over the direction of the band ensued and it quickly became clear that Mitchell and Greg did not agree with Gibbons’ hard rock approach. That ended up being a poor life decision for them, but a great one for a couple of other guys.
Clearly, Gibbons needed a new rhythm section.
Fortunately, he found a package deal.
Dusty Hill and Frank Beard - also both born in 1949 - had been playing together on the Dallas-Houston-Fort Worth circuit in a number of bands, including The Warlocks, The Cellar Dwellers, and a fake cover band called The Zombies. Both the Duster and the (then ironically) beardless Beard also heard the siren call of rock and roll. Hill was classically trained and was an accomplished cello player before moving to his signature bass. Frank ‘Rube’ Beard appears to have been born with drumsticks in his hands (which I imagine might have been uncomfortable for his mom).
Beard joined the band first, along with bassist Billy Ethridge, who had played with Stevie Ray Vaughn. Ethridge balked at signing a contract and so joined Mitchell and Greg on the list of ZZ Top’s former members. Their lineup was set. Hill and Beard anchored the band in a rock-solid, tight, bluesy fashion. Gibbons meshed perfectly with this duo, and his Hendrix-inspired guitar work was on another level. Hill provided backing vocals, and Gibbons’ low throaty growl was an impressive counterpoint to his soaring fretwork. The talent was all there; now they just needed to record some music.
But success was not instantaneous, not by a long shot.
Their first album - appropriately called ZZ Top’s First Album - gives insight into who the band were to become. In this 1971 release, you can hear their raw sound. The record peaked at 201 on the charts, and had only one single - (Somebody Else Been) Shaking Your Tree. It did give them material to go out and tour. The boys gelled on that tour and went back into the studio with renewed energy, and emerged with 1972’s Rio Grande Mud. The disc was a step forward in refining their sound. The album almost cracked the top 100, and the only single - Francine - went all the way to number 69.
Nice.
But the band knew that their third album, Tres Hombres, was something special. It is the epitome of Southern Rock: bluesy, fast paced, sexy, and irreverent, it is just over half an hour of pure magic. And while the album went gold and peaked at number 8 on the charts and is worth your time, it was one particular single that rocketed them to stardom. You know it and you love it, and a-how-how-how-how: La Grange. It is still in heavy rotation on classic rock stations today. And why not? The song is an absolute banger of boogie woogie blues, written about a visit to a whorehouse. What’s not to love?
La Grange propelled them to popularity. Tours sold out. Venues got bigger and bigger. 1975’s follow up album, Fandango!, was half live album (with some covers) and half new material - like an EP with bonus tracks. They covered the Elvis Presley classic Jailhouse Rock, Willie Dixon’s Mellow Down Easy, and John Lee Hooker’s Long Distance Boogie. The boys had rock and blues chops, and had 5 years of touring experience. These were bold statements that cemented their musicality as well as honoring their roots. But side two of the disc had another track that you’ve come to love. You ain’t asking for much: You’re just lookin’ for some Tush. Tush was the perfect sexually charged follow up to ensure that they were not one-hit wonders. It was written in a ten-minute spasm of creativity at a sound check, and has gone on to be one of their most popular songs.
While Tush topped the charts, ZZ Top went back into the studio to record their full length follow up, 1976’s Tejas. The name of the album means ‘friends’ in the Indigenous Caddo language, and was the basis for the name of the state. You know what that means? It means that the name of the state is ‘Friends’. Just like the ‘90s sitcom. Don’t mess with Friends. Anyways, this was an album of experimentation for the band, and unlike its predecessor it came out half baked at best. Billy Gibbons has called it a transition album. What actually happened is the band transitioned into a hiatus from touring and recording, taking some significant time off. They had recorded five albums in six years and spent virtually all their time on the road. The latest effort was just not up to their standards and was a step back. It also completed their recording contract.
What was the solution to this burn out?
Facial hair of course.
The boys took a few years off before landing another recording contract, this time with Warner. Over those months, both Gibbons and Hill grew what would become their signature long ‘Texas Goatee’ beards. Frank Beard did not grow a beard (though he did finally succumb to peer pressure from his bandmates in 2013, and his is much more neatly trimmed). So while they were resting/relaxing/getting their groove back/aligning their chakras or whatever, they also started to reinvent their signature sound as the world moved towards a decade of legendary excess.
The first step on this reinvention journey was 1979’s Degüello. The title literally means ‘decapitation’ but idiomatically refers to a fight to the death. Clearly, the band decided to tackle their transition head on. The album was not as successful as Tres Hombres or Fandango!, but it was not the flop that Tejas was. It did spawn a couple of singles - I Thank You (which was a cover) and the signature hit Cheap Sunglasses. Both are staples at ZZ Top concerts to this day. Degüello was quickly followed up in 1981 by the album El Loco. This was really the first time ZZ Top incorporated a synthesizer into their sound. As you know, the synth was THE new wave sound of the 1980s. Gods help us, keytars were once popular. But Gibbons, Hill, and Beard did not abandon their edge. The single Pearl Necklace was an immensely popular innuendo laced tune from this album. And no, I will not explain what a pearl necklace is to you.
Ask your mom.
Over the course of their first seven albums, ZZ Top had steadily grown in popularity and become a truly extraordinary live band. More than a decade of touring together meant that they had not just cut their teeth. They had found the Tooth Fairy, beaten her senseless, and added fangs to their jaws. They were ready to tackle whatever came their way.
Their huge breakthrough coincided with the birth of music videos and MTV. 1983’s Eliminator was an absolute monster of an album. ZZ Top were everywhere. They completely embraced the Music Video as a medium and became pioneers in this new genre. They branded their band with a 1933 fire-engine red Ford Coupe, which was on the cover of the album. They even had a signature hand gesture that they used as the car went by. The car belonged to Billy Gibbons and embodied his hot rod obsessions. It was featured in the videos for Gimme All Your Lovin’, Sharp Dressed Man, and Legs. Other singles from the album included Got me Under Pressure and TV Dinners. Eliminator is still the band’s most successful album. They were at the absolute height of their popularity with a massive audience. No doubt the 10-year-old Joshua Michael Homme watched those videos on a small screen in the California desert, little knowing that he would one day collaborate with Gibbons.
Seeking to capitalize on the popularity, the band went back into the studio and released Afterburner in 1985. It featured the signature hot rod on the cover and spawned two more singles - Sleeping Bag and Velcro Fly. Afterburner was not an innovative album by any stretch of the imagination. It simply built on the success of Eliminator and replicated the sound. If you blended the two albums together it would be very difficult for a novice fan to guess which song came from which disc. But hell, when you release the most popular album of your career and are earning millions of dollars for that sound, it is not time to mess with success. Or with Texas. Or with Friends (though Ross was a pain in the ass, IMHO).
That desire to not screw up a good thing was also evident in their next release, the retrospective re-release Six Pack. This was a great way to earn some bucks with a simple repackaging of existing tracks - I’m looking at you, K-Tel… - and introducing them to another generation of fans. This was not a bad thing at all - you gotta get that green whenever you can, because fame can be fleeting.
ZZ Top closed out the decade by going Back to the Future. Literally. They appeared in the third installment of the Michael J. Fox trilogy as the olde-timey house band (complete with rotating guitars) in the saloon scene. The single and signature song from the movie, Doubleback, appeared on their 1990 release Recycler. The album spawned two more singles: My Head’s in Mississippi and Concrete and Steel. Recycler was not as successful as its predecessors, but it did effectively max level the band. In the 1970’s they were a scuffling bar band that hit it big. In the 1980’s they were one of the most popular bands of the MTV generation. And in the 1990’s they achieved superstardom. They had hit the level where it truly no longer mattered if they ever released new material again. They could simply tour on their back catalogue alone and sell out stadiums.
It is clear that the band realized this as well. In the thirty years since Recycler came out, they have released five albums of new material: Antenna in 1994, Rhythmeen in 1996, XXX in 1999, Mescalero in 2003 and the critically acclaimed and Rick Rubin produced La Futura in 2012. This was equivalent to their output in their first six years.
In contrast, they have released no less than eight greatest hits albums, cover albums and live albums in the same time span. Greatest Hits came out in 1992. One Foot in the Blues was released in 1994. The massive compilation Chrome, Smoke & BBQ came out in 2003, and is a fantastic place to start if you are a new fan. Rancho Texicano was released in 2004, Live from Texas came out in 2008, and Double Down Live hit shelves in 2009. Live at Montreaux came out in 2013 and Tonite at Midnight: Live Greatest Hits from Around the World was released in 2016.
As recently as 2019, there were rumors that a new album was in the works for our Septuagenarian heroes. Lord knows the boys from Texas have nothing left to prove to anyone.
It was then that tragedy struck. Dusty Hill had to leave the band during a tour in 2021. The reason given was a hip injury. His guitar tech, Elwood Francis, filled in. Shockingly, Hill died at home at the age of 72 just five days after leaving the tour.
Fans were shocked and mourned the stalwart bassist. Per his wishes - and it seems he knew something wasn’t quite right - ZZ Top did not break up. Francis replaced Hill on bass, and the band soldiered on. In 2022, they released Raw, a soundtrack for a 2019 documentary about them. This was Hill’s final release.
You can still catch them on tour. They are going to be out there this summer, touring with Lynyrd Skynyrd, for something they are calling ‘The Sharp Dressed Simple Man’ Tour.
Go buy some tickets. Don’t miss your chance to see a truly iconic band before they are gone.
Links to QOTSA
The Reverend Billy F. Gibbons was a big part of the Lullabies to Paralyze album by our Desert Dwellers. He played guitar and provided backing vocals on Burn the Witch. He was co-lead vocalist and lead guitar on the QotSA cover of Precious and Grace, which he originally released as a ZZ Top tune on the Tres Hombres album. He also provided the guitar stylings for Like a Drug.
But the connections don't stop there. Billy sang the lead vocal track on the recent Desert Sessions tune Move Together, and he played guitar on Noses in Roses, Forever.
What may be most important to QotSA fans is that Gibbons was the first person, almost two years ago, who hinted that Queens were working on a new album.
And now we know he was right. Never doubt a Reverend.

2023.06.02 13:01 slatestrcodexGPT2Bot The "socially acceptable" behavior of the American police.

This is a continuation of my first post: https://www.reddit.com/SSC/comments/bbx1yq/the_society_of_the_police_and_its_social_adherence/
I found an interesting article a while back which I've been thinking about for awhile. It's about the police and their social acceptability.
Here goes. (I'm going to assume you already did the research to learn about this).
This article is written by a psychologist, and is interesting for a number of reasons.
  1. It's very much a first-hand account of life in the USA.
  2. It's not necessarily a condemnation of the police, as it's not a judgment of the police by any stretch.
  3. It's written by an officer, and so is much more credible than any other officer in the world.
  4. It's a little bit of an indictment of the police, and the system, but not necessarily a condemnation of the police.
  5. It's very much a "my personal experience" type of story, and not necessarily a general picture of the police in general.
  6. It's written by a former police officer, and thus very much reflects the mindset of a former police officer.
  7. The author is a former officer, and so is very familiar with how the police work, and how the system works.
So that's a few reasons why this is interesting. There's also a couple of references at the end.
So, here's my question for you. What are your thoughts on this article?

This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 40%. (I'm a bot)
Ben Wallace, UK Defence Secretary, who has expressed a desire to become the next NATO Secretary General, does not see Ukraine joining the Alliance shortly.
Details: Answering a question about Ukraine's prospects of joining NATO, Wallace pointed to the existing disagreements about Kyiv's path to the Alliance.
"We have to be realistic and say: 'It's not going to happen at Vilnius'; It's not going to happen anytime soon," Wallace said, referring to the NATO leaders' summit scheduled for July.
"But what can those powers that want to be more forward-leaning do to help Ukraine, and to give it not 100 percent but a similar effect to what NATO delivers?" asked the UK Defence Secretary.
Wallace said that a number of countries are willing to enter into bilateral or multilateral "Mutual defence pacts" with Ukraine and commit to long-term plans to build the country's military capabilities to make sure that an invasion of Ukraine in the future will be costly for Russia or anyone else.
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is looking forward to a step forward in rapprochement with the North Atlantic Alliance and states that security guarantees are needed only until Ukraine is in NATO. Journalists fight on their own frontline.

Highest Mileage Car – The Most Interesting and Impressive Models

https://preview.redd.it/nwi170in1l3b1.jpg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d5ad22a28997ec574520227015201ed494138c61
If we look at the odometer of the highest mileage car of all time, we’ll be astonished, to say the least. Only one vehicle managed to break the records, yet other cars are also quite impressive. Their mileage exceeds what we perceive as normal substantially. These days, we frown upon the cars that have more than 200,000 miles on the clock. But for top mileage car and its counterparts, this number was simply an insignificant part of the journey.
These vehicles drove across the US, collecting mileage without flinching an eye. Is mileage as important as we believed? We’ll figure that out below.

WHICH ONE IS THE HIGHEST MILEAGE CAR IN THE WORLD?

The most mileage car that reached all-time highest mileage is the 1966 Volvo P1800. The last reported mileage was 3.04 million miles, which is really hard to process. An average vehicle will last around 300,000 miles if we’re lucky. Somehow, the owner of the Volvo P1800, Irving Gordon managed to maintain the car for a whopping 3.04 million miles.
Not surprisingly, the 1966 Volvo P1800 and its owner hold the Guinness World Record. According to Irving, the secret to making the car last so long is regular maintenance. He changed oil and transmission fluid frequently to enhance the lifespan of the vehicle.
Truth be told, P1800 isn’t an ordinary vehicle either. Volvo created a real beast with this one. It was designed for long road trips and that’s exactly what Irving used it for. In other words, the combination of the caring owner and the characteristics of the car itself made it possible to cover 3 million miles without any trouble.
After hearing about P1800, I’m sure you’ll start believing us next time we emphasize the importance of regular maintenance.

7 BEST HIGH MILEAGE CARS


https://preview.redd.it/f1ik2n3p1l3b1.jpg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=59f3523255f53209186e76ddcf439ecfc1417e35
Even though no one managed to break the record set by Irving and Volvo P1800, other cars also exceeded everyone’s expectations. Below, you’ll find the list of the best high mileage cars that crossed the 1 million margin with ease.

1976 Mercedes 240D

Even though the 1976 Mercedes 240D didn’t manage to beat the longest-range Volvo P1800, it came quite close. The owner of the 240D was a taxi driver who used the vehicle both for personal and business purposes. He hit 2.85 million miles in 2004. That’s when Mercedes recognized it as their longest-lived car and saved a special place for it in their museum. In return, the owner of the 240D received a brand-new C-Class. Sounds fair, doesn’t it?

1979 Volvo 245 GL

Yes, we have yet another Volvo on this list. This time it’s their 1979 245GL. Even though it doesn’t have a special story attached to it, it’s still quite famous. With its durable components and indestructible design, 245 GL easily made it to 1.63 million miles. The company that owned this vehicle claims that they didn’t do anything special apart from following regular maintenance schedules. Maybe purchasing an old Volvo isn’t that bad of an idea after all.

1963 Plymouth Fury

Next, we have 1963 Plymouth Fury with 1.62 million miles. Unlike other vehicles on this list, the Fury was the least fortunate out of all. It would surely beat the Guinness World Record in 1999, but it was hit by a truck. The Fury didn’t survive and failed to break the record.

1963 Volkswagen Beetle

We wouldn’t necessarily expect a Volkswagen Beetle to be a reliable top mileage car. Yet it surprised us in the best way possible. The 1963 release of this model lasted for 1.61 million miles. However, the owner didn’t achieve this result with the original engine. In fact, he had to go through 7 motor swaps to make the vehicle last. If you’re not sure whether the engine replacement is worth the money or not, take a closer look at the Volkswagen Beetle.

1983 Lincoln Town Car

Another remarkable model on this list is the 1983 Lincoln Town Car. This fella traveled 1.3 million miles throughout its life. The owner claims that they didn’t have to do any major repairs. We don’t know if that’s true or not, but we know that they really loved driving.

1991 Chevrolet C1500

1991 Chevrolet C1500 is relatively new compared to other models, yet its owner still managed to reach around 1.29 million miles. He drove around 200 miles every day to deliver seafood. Such a long commute is the main reason why his C1500 managed to cross the million-mile mark.

1966 Mercedes 250SE

Finally, 1966 Mercedes 250SE accumulated 1.28 million miles throughout its life. It’s quite different from the newer Mercedes models that break down quite easily. However, even the 250SE had to go through major repairs to cross the million-mile mark.

WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF OWNING MOST MILEAGE CAR?

Owning the best mileage car in world is beneficial as it makes you famous, stays by your side for a long time, and turns driving into a fun and enjoyable journey.

It makes you and your vehicle famous

Crossing even a 500,000-mile margin is a great achievement these days. Imagine managing to rack up over 1 million miles! As soon as you exceed the life expectancy of the vehicle, you’ll become a cool guy among your friends. But as you achieve unimaginable numbers, you’ll surely become famous. Unfortunately, you might have a hard time achieving those results with newer releases.

A top mileage car is a life-long companion

A car with the highest mileage is a life-long companion as it lasts for decades. Sure, you’ll have to maintain it religiously, however, your investments will pay off. But if you prefer changing cars frequently, this might even be a drawback.

It makes driving challenging and interesting

If you’re someone who is always looking for challenges, then turning your car into the highest mileage model could be an interesting thing for you. Why own an ordinary car when you can have one of the most famous models?

WHAT ARE THE DRAWBACKS OF HAVING A HIGH-MILEAGE VEHICLE?

Alternatively, owning a high-mileage vehicle can have multiple drawbacks, including the risks of breaking down, difficulties connected with reselling, and expenses.

You don’t know when it’s going to break down

The most mileage car ever recorded will be quite old – you won’t be able to rack up 1 million miles on a vehicle that was released in 2020 or 2021. Therefore, you won’t be able to predict when something will break down. Unpredictability is probably one of the major drawbacks of the highest mileage vehicles.

You might have a hard time selling it

According to Forbes, the sales of high-mileage cars have increased during the last year. However, it still doesn’t mean that you’ll be able to sell the highest mileage vehicle easily. Plus, the famous cars that made history are already in the museums. Therefore, beating existing records and making a name is already a challenging task. Reselling such a vehicle is even more difficult.

It can be quite expensive to maintain

As we’ve seen above, the best mileage car in world made it so long because the owner maintained it religiously. Even though regular maintenance is crucial one way or another, such cars require even more attention. If you skip changing the oil or neglect the signs of damage, you won’t be able to keep the car for so long.

HOW DO PEOPLE MANIPULATE MILEAGE?

As a rule, people manipulate mileage with the help of various tools. Even though we’re amazed by the highest mileage models, people are still reluctant to purchase cars with high mileage. Trends might be changing, yet we can blame that entirely on Covid-19. The chances are things will be back to normal in a year or two. Consequently, people still manipulate mileage to increase sales.
Mileage correction tools and mileage blocker devices are the main units they use. The former enables you to change mileage entirely, while the latter stops recording additional km. These two seem equally effective, yet things are quite different in reality.
To be more precise, the mileage blocker is more effective as it doesn’t leave any trace. Its performance is impossible to detect even with a diagnostic tester. It’s an ethical tool that manufacturers created for testing purposes. Conversely, the effects of the odometer correction tools are quite easy to discover.
You should remember that odometer clocking is an unethical business. It’s not the worst thing in the world if you have legit reasons, however, it can be illegal in certain states or countries.

HOW CAN YOU USE THE MILEAGE BLOCKER WITH THE BEST MILEAGE CAR IN WORLD?

https://preview.redd.it/jp9ddaas1l3b1.jpg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=12ee8d810012ce1fd30c5820c4b959eb55dd0e4b
You can use the mileage blocker to test the performance of the best high mileage cars. Since these fellas require a lot of attention, we need to be extremely cautious with them. Buying a tool such as a kilometer stopper can be a great solution.
It will help you check the performance of the engine or other components in a controlled environment. But it’s important to find a model that actually delivers desired results. Finding a high mileage blocker for sale is essential for safe and effective operation.

FINAL TAKEAWAY

It’s interesting to explore the highest mileage car and the models that came close to its records. Not only are they impressive, but they also show us a different perspective when it comes to mileage. However, it doesn’t mean that odometer figures aren’t important. Even the owners of the highest mileage vehicles admit the importance of regular maintenance and repairs. Thus, mileage manipulation still lingers on the automotive market.

2023.06.02 12:57 MCMortimer_ Landed My First Fish...but its not what you think....

I have been seriously fishing (on my own, own tackle, all that good shit) for roughly 2-3 months. In that time i have had hooked a number of fish one huge carp who managed to escape just after getting him in the net, and about a 1ft pike who fought like hell and unhooked as well. I'm loving life even just hooking the fish (especially on lures) really gives me a rush...well enough to keep me coming back.
Anyway, the other night i go to my favourite spot, loads of trout and apparently a couple pike and perch and I hooked something! it looked like a fish, but wasn't fighting and my hook was not in its mouth. obviously being green got worried/interested what i had done. brought it up to the bank and there it was, a DEAD, DECOMPOSING HALF OF A FISH. Has anyone else done this before? is it bad luck? should i stop fishing there?

(also can upload a photo for any sikkos that wanna see)

2023.06.02 12:54 Caramel-Shortbread Update regarding Reddit's new API update and the future of r/HarkleSnarkle

Dear fellow Snarkers, this week, Reddit made a new announcement that might affect the platform and its users as of July 1st.
Full post about Reddit new announcement can be found here:
https://old.reddit.com/modnews/comments/13wshdp/api_update_continued_access_to_our_api_fo
Summary of what Reddit Inc has announced so far, specifically the parts that will kill many third-party apps:
  1. The Reddit API will cost money, and the pricing announced today will cost apps like Apollo $20 million per year to run. RIF may differ but it would be in the same ballpark. And no, RIF does not earn anywhere remotely near this number.
  2. As part of this they are blocking ads in third-party apps, which make up the majority of RIF's revenue. So they want to force a paid subscription model onto RIF's users. Meanwhile Reddit's official app still continues to make the vast majority of its money from ads.
  3. Removal of sexually explicit material from third-party apps while keeping said content in the official app. Some people have speculated that NSFW is going to leave Reddit entirely, but then why would Reddit Inc have recently expanded NSFW upload support on their desktop site?
HarkleSnarkle will remain on Reddit for the time being, but we are trying to find new alternatives to Reddit, especially since we know some users use only third party apps like; Narwhal, Reddit is Fun, and Apollo.
We do have a HarkleSnarkle Discord server, and anyone can join, we only need that you send us a DM through modmail, or directly to my account, and we can verify your account. This is just an easy step to make Discord spam-free.
Have great weekend
Best
Your mod team!

2023.06.02 12:48 Final_Consequence_11 The confusing state of CPU naming

Hello!

It seems every time i look at laptops, they try to make the naming more confusing!
I'm looking at Slim + light and 2in1 laptops, and the names are confusing.

I am no expert, I just used to look up the CPU on https://www.cpubenchmark.net/ and make sure the number is good.
Take these 3 CPUS

i5-1035G7 - https://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu.php?cpu=Intel+Core+i5-1035G7+@+1.20GHz&id=3582
i5-1340P - https://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu.php?cpu=Intel+Core+i5-1340P&id=5237
Intel Core i7-1355U - https://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu.php?cpu=Intel+Core+i7-1355U&id=5317

from this, the I7 looks signifcantly worse than the I5?

Is this the best "quick and dirty" way to make sure i get a decent CPU?
Thanks!

2023.06.02 12:47 RoadmapRijstpap Seeking Advice on Factoring Services for a Client Experiencing Cash Flow Issues

Hello BEFreelance community,
I've recently started my journey as a freelance IT project manager and have run into a challenge with a client. The client is currently facing some cash flow problems, which has affected the prompt payment of my invoices. This, in turn, impacts my own cash flow.
To address this, I am considering using a factoring service for about the next 6 months to help ensure more consistent cash flow on my end.
Here's where I need your advice:
  1. Can anyone recommend a reliable factoring firm? Ideally, I'm looking for one that has experience working with freelancers or small businesses in the IT sector.
  2. What are some key considerations when choosing a factoring firm? Any hidden pitfalls I should be aware of?
  3. What has been your experience with factoring, if you've used it? Has it helped your cash flow situation as expected?
  4. Any advice on negotiating terms with a factoring firm?
  5. Finally, if you've faced a similar situation, I'd be interested in knowing how you managed it and if there are alternatives to factoring that you'd recommend.
To add some context, I am currently contracted through an intermediary client who connected me with the end client. I really enjoy the projects I'm working on for the end client; they're both challenging and interesting. Additionally, I've signed a non-compete agreement which prevents me from continuing to work with the end client directly, outside of my current arrangement. Therefore, while seeking a different intermediary client might seem like the simplest solution, I'd prefer to find a way to manage the cash flow issue while continuing to work on these engaging projects.
Thank you in advance for your time and advice.
Best,

2023.06.02 12:47 Financialcow000 2 tables linked to calendar table. Ambiguous relationship?

I have 3 tables in power bi desktop.
The first table is called calendar, which has a date column and a period column.
The second table is called employees and has columns for name and hire_date.
The last table is called sales and has a employee_name column, sales_date and sales_value.
There is already a relationship between employee_name and name in the employee table.
I would like to make a graph which shows the total sales each period and the hires each period. So I created a relationship between calendar’s date and the date in the other 2 tables, but power bi says there is an ambiguous relationship.
Is there another way I can create this single graph with the period number on the x axis?
