If you want to play games from the Late 90s or early 2000s, Windows XP is probably your best bet. You may find driver incompatibility with Sandy Bridge products though.

Maybe I'll be up there in June, who knows It's not as long a drive for me as it is for you.

Sometimes I get significantly higher MPG depending on how many hills there are in the area. Maybe it could be that?

The gas bills tho...

I learned how to drive stick when I was 15 and got my license. I didn't take lessons though, my dad taught me how to drive. I wouldn't say that there's no point, but for most people an automatic is fine. I feel that you learn how cars work and operate better if you know how to drive a manual, and I find that there is less distracted driving when you need both hands to drive. That being said, driving a manual is a PITA in heavy traffic, and if I had a long commute I wouldn't drive stick. I learned how to drive stick in San Francisco, which is definitely one of the more unforgiving places to learn how to drive stick, but I find it pretty useful nonetheless. Engine breaking down long hills is really convenient, and the added protection of not having to worry about your car getting stolen is really nice.

You're Portuguese, not American

Anyone else feel that driving a small car is dangerous? I don't live in an area with a ton of trucks, but I feel like a larger car would be safer on the freeway. I know @bcredeur97drives his Touareg instead of the Miata now....

Does Louisiana have smog testing? If they don't, I wouldn't worry too much. My dad had a car with the same engine (A6 3.0 TDI), and we gave it back during the whole dieselgate thing because California emissions test would have become a PITA with that thing.

idk how expensive it is in Louisiana rn, but I'd be more worried about gas prices with a big SUV...

I thought the cas looked familiar, and then I realized its Obioban! I've been following you for years on M3Post, nice work! Glad to see you still own the cars and they're in great shape.

You can probably get a ratty automatic one for $5k, but certainly you're not going to get a nice manual one for $5k.

Not cheap anymore... And certainly not going to keep you safe in an accident with an SUV...

Yeah, my dad had one (on a lease), and the thing would've been super expensive to own if not on a lease. You might also be able to spot my current car in the garage

Time to buy a V10 TDI Touareg.

As the others have said here in this thread, I don't think Linus owning a stake in Framework necessarily means that he is unable to review other laptops, but he does mention Framework far too often in videos that have nothing to do with the product. He has already disclosed that he owns a stake in Framework, he should stop mentioning that from now on.

Man that really sucks considering that you just got the Touareg... Good thing no one was hurt though.

Pssh, who needs Apple Car Play

I have about 12,000 photos (~ 40GB) Some FLAC albums (~50GB), saved iMessages (~10GB) Apps (~20GB). I also want to shoot 4K ProRes, which uses an insane amount of storage.

Pre-ordered the phone on launch day, it should arrive on Friday. I was debating between the 256GB and the 512GB, but the 512GB was $200 more, so I snagged the 256GB and hope that it will be enough storage.

Y'all better hope that they reinforced the Lake Pontchartrain Dams properly... don't want a repeat of that. Trust me, I've had people tell me that my state deserves to be sunk into the Pacific. You just get used to it after a while.

School's back in session, which means that kids now have extracurricular stuff (soccer, baseball, etc.) on the weekends, and you have stressed out parents driving on the freeways.

Hopefully you at least got a tax deduction from that donation lol.
