I tried to fix my laptop with the know how of a youtube video. I cleaned the coolingfan and i put it back together again. I still can’t believe the laptop is still working. Not at its best but i does the job. It reminds me on my old beetle car. It drove on love.

Im terrible with keeping my car up to scratch. Its not in the best shape at all times. I usually just try to get a service done every few months and let the mechanics do their thing.

I used to fix cars and vans, but no longer.
Now I have a good mechanic who doesn’t charge rip off prices

Not much anymore. Especially not this year since I’ve been full time in a wheelchair and can’t really do ■■■■ all anymore. But hopefully once I get out of this chair I’ll be able to do some stuff again.

My mom took me to a car show when I was a teenager. It was in a shopping mall parking lot and I believe they were vintage Porsches. She did some nice things. My dad lived 500 miles away. But he did plan trips to state parks, I just needed a full time dad because I’d never listen to anyone.

@Mattunusualzaa , Welcome to the forum! Glad you found us!
A few tips on things that confuse newbies:
Cake day is the anniversary date of when you joined.
The 1515 or other numbers at the end of peoples posts are because there’s a 15 character minimum to post. So people put 15s after until they get to the minimum characters to post.
To tag someone, put the @ followed by the name.

Not really. My dad is pretty good at doing oil changes or installing new brake pads.
I work on my old cars. Late model ones not too much. Most of them are under warranty.
