Enlightenment was always intriguing to me but man was it buggy and a hog on my “i found this lil guy in a skid” class computers. Has it gotten better ?

Interesting… didn’t know that existed. Will have to check them out. And yeah, i should have pointed out they may be too expensive to be used for harder labor, they’re just the ones i’ve owned that have held up the longest so they came to mind.

Any brand that uses Japanese selvage in the heavier weights lasts ages. Take a while to break in and are $$$, though.

One thing that makes them last longest is washing gently and only when necessary. Tumble dryers and fabric softeners plus dryer sheets accelerate wear drastically. I have a couple pairs from Naked and Famous that are roughly a decade old with no tears or holes.

Otherwise like mentioned here: canvas pants or the firehose material ones from Duluth last a long time too. Much easier to maintain and handle frequent washing more readily.

Pretty much. Mazda had an issue with spiders attracted to gasoline clogging up fuel systems while being shipped overseas. And soy-based wire sheathing is apparently quite the delicacy to certain animals.

Well… some species divisions live for hundreds of years. So there may be some swimming around older than when some younger countries were founded.

if the whole world smells like shit, check your shoe.

Just seeing the state of toilets and stalls when some people leave… I don’t want that on my hands. When i’m at work I notice many people do their business and bolt out the door if they think they’re alone.

This… I remember one of our neighbors finally letting their homeschooled kid go to public school and play with us. We had to teach him how to run. I remember my young mind being baffled by this. He was incredibly naïve and overly trusting so he got bullied mercilessly and beat up at recess. His mother did him no favors by being really nasty with us when we went over to take him fishing, exploring, etc. We moved away and i wonder what happened to him… he was a gentle soul.

Remember playing Outer Worlds and thinking this is closer to reality than i’m comfortable with… we’re living this. Need to finish de-Googling.

Worst comes to worst you can fill it from the dipstick

Going by all the hacky looking fixes, it may have snapped off or been removed for some reason. I’d rustle around those hoses in that area to see if you can at least see the valve cover and feel around for an opening.

Usually on the top left near that jumble of hoses where the valve cover is, there is a filler neck sticking out. I can’t see it in this picture though.

Most of them own some type of property. The rest rent. I was one of the last to buy right before shit hit the fan with COVID and the market went to hell.
