@TechByTaraa DOS.

Be honest, what was the first OS you ever used?

@TheCleanCarClub Hard right and reverse. Going forward will tear off the right rear quarter panel.

As a senior driver, reverse or drive forward to remove it?

@TheKanehB @RealDutchsinse Nextel as a brand specifically used proprietary hardware license from Motorola. No other company could generate the exact same products since they could not get access to the hardware. Today that is not the case as voice over IP applications can mimic the functionality.

@RealDutchsinse A friend was just telling me that in 1990 her family had a phone at the end of the road that just bounced signal down the canyon and worked reliability Or Nextel phones? Why is that tech no longer available?

How did pagers have service absolutely everywhere before cell towers? There were no dead zones w the beeper and no towers. What happened to that tech?

@KathleenWinche3 Absolutely. Haven't owned a manual transmission car in 35 years, but no problem.

I could in a heartbeat!

@JCFlyingDutchmn @TheCleanCarClub Sadly, not that far off from reality.

@TheCleanCarClub ACC is for verifying the account. This car has a subscription service. If you haven't paid your monthly fee, it won't let the key past ACC.

What does ACC mean

@Monica55dzrh Yes to both.

Life observation #162: Some people insist on having their cell phone conversations at full volume on speakerphone in public areas, such as stores. Why?

@oelma__ The number for a good dentist.

What’s missing?

@mrmikeMTL Lighthouse operator

Anyone know of a good job for someone who hates people?

@Matt_Pinner Did it 4 years ago. Does that mean I get 28 million?

You’re offered $7 million to uninstall Facebook from your phone forever. Would you do it?

@EWRairport Are the wait times shown in apps like "MyTSA" for EWR considered accurate?

Due to longer wait times at #EWR airport security, please allow extra travel time.

@DaisyDukes5599 @miles_commodore Learned to drive stick when I was about 12 in my dad's old work truck on private property. 1960s GMC box truck for the four-speed manual on the floor and heavy duty everything. Manual cars were a breeze after driving that tank.

@miles_commodore I learned to drive in a stick. Dad took me to a heal and showed me how to not roll backwards by engaging the clutch enough to keep it on the hill.

For those who learned how to drive a stick shift know exactly what I’m talking about. The anxiety at a red light or being on a hill with cars behind me used to always get me when I was learning.

@EmilySm43 I uninstalled that worthless piece of crap application years ago. Where's my money?

Be honest

@FreckleFaceFvck I had the unfortunate luck of having to replace windshields in two of my cars fairly close together a few years ago. As I recall, I had a $100 deductible so I was out of pocket $200 total for two new windshields. Both were done in my driveway by Safelite.

It’s $996 to replace my windshield with insurance. It’s $491 to replace my windshield without insurance. What the fuck is the point of insurance ????

Officially feeling old now. Went to the supermarket and they were playing the normal "oldie hits" type music. The particular banger they had going when I walked in? "Hysteria" by Def Leppard. Time to go sit on the rocker in my porch and yell at the kids not to touch my grass.

Question for anyone traveling lately: are the wait times shown in the "MyTSA" anywhere near accurate? #travel #tsa

@mariana057 Haha... we see what you did their ....

I am so frustrated with people that don’t know the difference between “your” and “you’re”. There so uneducated…

@alt_w_v_g While not as detailed as this, I did something similar years ago. Researched and found the dealer invoice pricing for the car I was ordering online and had it in my pocket for when we got to the price negotiations. Once they knew I had it, got the car for $500 over invoice.

Went to the car dealership Saturday Wife wants a new SUV Salesman walked over and said "what are we looking for today?" I said "what's your margin on the Tahoe?" He laughed I said "I'm not joking. What's the invoice price versus the sticker and what holdback does the dealer get from GM?" He stopped laughing My wife said "we're just browsing" We were not just browsing I brought a spreadsheet Printed Color coded Blue for inputs Black for calculations I showed him the comparable transaction analysis I ran on every Tahoe sold within 50 miles in the last 90 days He said "sir this is a car dealership" I said "and these are the comps" He went to get his manager The manager came out Looked at my spreadsheet Looked at me Said "where do you work?" I said "private equity" He said "that explains it" My wife was already in the lobby pretending she didn't know me We got the Tahoe $4,200 below sticker She didn't thank me But the savings speak for themselves You are welcome Sent from my iPhone

@the7maxims Absolutely. Even in my 20's (admittedly a long time ago), you could find a really decent used car for a few thousand. Definitely not the case over the past 5 years or more.

My kid is a rising senior. We’re looking at cars for her. She asked to look at the new Broncos… 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫 $35000 & up. I decided to look at a RAV4 thinking I could find something less than $20000. They’re $30000 plus. I guess entry level vehicles are a thing of the past.

@status_is_down Nope. No issues in NJ.

Is Verizon down for you as well? #Verizon #VerizonDown community.designtaxi.com/topic/24738-is…
