  • And you have to retune the whole engine timing too right cause they relied on the precision of the timing chain so much. But thats mainly a problem on the later i4 based engines(including their v8 which is pretty embarrasing tho i guess nowadays a premium german car having serious problems is just usual). The m52 and m54 are made out of vibranium from my experience and they run like heaven to this day.


  • Yeah but theyre all marginalized and only people who grew up with it speak it. Theres a difference between learning a language youre not related to in any capacity just because its culturally relevant or something and learning a language because youre born with it. There are extremely few second language nganasan, ket, komi, erzya, etc speakers who arent also part of the ethnic group. Thats why people learning languages like cree, navajo, nuxalk, etc as second languages as white americans just because they can is such a beautiful thing. Youre ancestors have taken so much from them but youre trying to make it right. Point is, the vast majority of white, orthodox russians only speak russian and maybe english.

    Weight isnt nearly as bad as people believe it is. As long as you arent obese being overweight but moving and eating healthy is probably healthier than being overly obsessed with exercise. Of course the two still correlate because often people who are overweight also live unhealthy lifestyles. Also chubby people are hot, dont let society dictate whos beautiful








  • Aaand thats why americans only knowing english is a stereotype. The average person on earth speaks more than one language, its only in priviledged imperialist states like russia, usa, china and some poor monocultural countries that its normal to speak one language. Everywhere else you either learn em cause you need it, its prestige or because its good practice to be able to speak to others in their own language. There are many places in europe where knowing three or four languages are not unusual and lets not even talk about africa where there were entire trading tribes whos whole thing was knowing a bunch of languages.


  • Same way there being factors in a country for example that raise the occurance of alcoholism and cigarette use still means each of the people individually do have responsibilites to stop smoking. Or how crime rates are higher in poor places still means that violent crime(not the one where people steal basic needs) is still the responsibility of the individual. You have to look at the greater picture and the individuals at the same time. Also i dont know who said it first but to paraphrase my mom “At some point you have to responsible for your actions”. Most places in the world draw this line from 12 to 21 but often different kinds of responsibilites come at different times.
