馃馃捇 what's this on my computer now
馃馃捇 looks like a guy doing his own repairs on a 20-year-old car
馃馃捇 what a silly thing to do, why would you do that
馃馃捇 I know how to help
馃馃捇 "You should buy an electric vehicle!"
馃馃捇 There, that'll help put him on the right track
馃馃捇 Honestly, how are so many people this oblivious when the solution is so obvious

Much like nobody on fedi has a normal relationship with technology, nobody here has a normal amount of money either. Fedi is either stripeysocked people who don't have two pennies to rub together because they'll give their last fiver to a starving artist and forget "oh shit wait I'M a starving artist" and so they have keep passing the same wrinkled fiver around in a big stripey circle, or it's Computers People who've been doing Computers Things so long they don't know how to live on less than a hundred grand a year and there's nowt in between

This thread's for the first half, if you're in the second half I'm *obviously* not talking to you, I'm not fixing this car for fun y'know, you're welcome to watch but You Must Be At Least This Poor To Comment

@ifixcoinops I very much feel this particular part of this thread.

I certainly don't have a "normal" amount of money, in that I frequently have not very much spending money, in spite of the fact that I "have" "assets", you know?

In my last car thread I had some weirdo trying to get me to drive pinball machines around on a cargo bike in the middle of winter and they would NOT take "Have you ever tried to actually do that" for an answer

The real kicker was their cargo bike cost more than my car
