Doesn’t that bypass an electronic lock per the DMCA?

Might I suggest mania?

There’s quite a few different YouTube channels dedicated to finding scrap metal or even a guy who owns a scrap metal business who pays for scrap metal, processes it, then sells it to various foundries to be melted down into something new.

I personally like to buy used items and resell them on eBay. Sometimes at thrift stores, but also garage sales and estate auctions. You can find auctions nearby on a site called hibid. I also sell my old unused items on eBay as well or even parts from broken items. Just look up the item on eBay and filter by sold.

Scrap metal. I always leave my scrap metal out on trash day next to the trash can. A guy in a pickup will come around and get it. I would have to save it up for years for it to be worth a single trip, but he’s getting a full load or two every day. I’m sure I’ve lost out on a few hundred bucks over the years.

I’m sure if you started an electronics recycling company or a clean out business you could get people to pay you to take their stuff.

Ant races

That was because their fees were based on the sale price of the item minus the shipping. So they were only paying fees on 1 cent. They changed the fees so that the total sale including shipping is calculated.

It encourages more consumption

A lot of marketing strategies are pseudoscience. Just like a lot police investigation practices or body language assumptions.

It is kind of a dick move when companies overcharge for shipping. I only charge calculated shipping on large or heavy items because those are the ones that vary a lot and I don’t want someone in zone 8 (like Southern California or even someone in HI buying it and shipping costing more than they paid. If it’s under 1 lb then I just give free shipping and bake it into the price.

I always round way up because sales tax is so high here. 17.99 = $20. I’m usually within the $1 range when I check out.

Pretty normal in the u.s. as well. Usually when there is a large family gathering like a wedding.

Fuck that, get the turbo convertible, five speed swap it.

There is/was ton of aftermarket parts for these because they share the same chassis as the 2000-2005 neon. Really there’s a bunch of common small issues with these like wheel bearings, fan motor, control arm bushings, etc but there’s a huge knowledge base from all the forums back in the day. The five speed manual is pretty reliable as well. They’re still a shitty car though, can’t really fix that.

You forgot about the millions of people that died because of his Covid response

Implying I could afford that shit in the first place 🤡

A lot of millennials were pro war back in 2001+ a bunch of people I went to school with joined the military. People would say “support our troops!” When you criticized the wars. This is nothing new, just brainwashing.

The Democrats love him because he invigorates voters in the midterms and the next presidential election.

Was never allowed to play games on ours because it could cause screen burn in.

Problem is that Reddit won’t let people talk about alternatives, so it’s difficult to tell people about it. Lemmy also does not lend itself to following links if you’re not logged into that instance. So if you find a link to a community on a different instance you can’t comment or engage with it unless you go back through your own instance.
