Oh, that's really sad.

I was just thinking about two other classic character actors yesterday. I saw a greeting card with Mickey and Minnie Mouse that said "still in love," and I remembered how they were actually a couple in real life and both died pretty recently.
I wasn't aware they were a couple in real life. How sad

a car between 2-3 grand is gonna have a lot more problems than a bad alternator.

Wait till you can put down 3 grand and make monthly payments. Thats better than buying a 2-3 grand car every year or two.
Disagree, but will say you have to do your research to ensure you're not getting a ticking time bomb, and even then there's no guarantee. My last car was $1500 and lasted me 3 years before I gave it to my brother who still has it. Only had to replace tires and a catalytic converter. Still running great.

Current car I bought for $700 and it's running fine, though it's only been a year. Still, for $700 if I only get a year out of it, I'm happy.

If you're buying from a dealer, they should provide you a Carfax report. It will tell you if the vehicle has been in any reported accidents, how many previous owners, if it's a prior lease return/fleet vehicle/rental (typically try to avoid those), if it's been totaled for some reason (flood, etc).

If buying privately, you may want to ask the seller to provide a Carfax, or get one for yourself. They're not expensive but if your budget is tight and you can convince the seller to provide it, do so. Some private sellers will have one ready for you when you come look for the car.

Don't be shy with the test drive. If you intend to drive the vehicle on the highway regularly, take it on the highway. Dealers will sometimes recommend a route for you, just politely tell them you want to get a feel for the car on the highway/on a stretch with lots of stoplights... whatever you think your daily use will be, try to get a feel for it.

Don't put down a deposit unless you want the car 100%. Some dealers will try to pressure you ("We can't promise we'll hold the car...") but there's a million cars out there for you to buy, and a deposit is a pressure tactic. Fuck that noise.

If you have a mechanic you trust, have them check out the car. Some dealers will allow you to have a mechanic look at the car, but if they hassle you about it tell them you're not interested and see if they take the bait. If you buy the car before your mechanic looks at it, make sure you have it looked at before your return/lemon law (if applicable) window is up.

Avoid frame damage or excessive rust/rot.

Ask for a maintenance history.

Those are a few tips, if I think of more I'll post them.

I'd say probably not, but I can find out for sure. She's very strong reader. Very smart kid.

As for budget, I'd spend up to $200 or so, in that neighborhood. Not looking to break the bank because I'm not sure if this is some passing fancy or if it's something she'll stick with, but I also don't want to cheap out on it and get her something that's essentially a waste of her time

How old is she? I know there's a board game out there (Robot Turtles) that's meant to teach children about programming, but it's very rudimentary and aimed at younger kids. If she's older than about 8, it's probably too simplistic.

I'm thinking along the lines of books or informative material, but are there tools or peripherals that can aid someone?

I know pretty much nothing about this, but I've seen a few people post about coding. Not sure how into it she is now or how serious, but I'd like to encourage her any way I can. Thinking she's just starting out so anything beginner to maybe intermediary-level as far as instructional stuff goes. Is she better off just looking up material online? What are some online resources she could look to?

Fiscal year 2020. May be announced at the Game Awards in December

https://www.gamesradar.com/rumor-metroid-prime-switch-trilogy-will-be-announced-soon-for-real-this-time/

A former editor for Game Informer claimed that the trilogy had been 'long done', meaning development was complete, as far back as January of 2019.

Kinda hope it isn't true. As much as I would like Prime 4, if they announce this I know I'm going to buy it even though my track record with remakes is terrible. Usually play them for an hour for the nostalgia, then shelve them. Once in a while I'll play through to the end. I think most recently I finished the SotC remake. But that one was incredible, so...

Nick Cave - picked up artwork from his house. Didn't get to talk to him much.

Chris Stein - picked up one of his guitars for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Didn't get to talk to him much.

George Benson - picked up some awesome instruments from his personal collection at his house. Among them, a Wes Montgomery guitar and a Miles Davis trumpet. He played guitar while we were there. Super friendly. Also buck ass naked when we arrived at his house lol

Gabriel Byrne - in passing on Martha's Vineyard. He was walking with a woman who may have been famous but I didn't recognize her.

Steve Martin - picked up artwork at his house. He mostly spoke with my boss but he was super nice and funny.

Tedy Bruschi - in passing outside Target

Bill Belichick - in passing at a gas station

James Woods - in passing at a (different) gas station

Dan Aykroyd - at a meet and greet in a liquor store where he was hawking his vodka

Jerry Stiller - delivered heating oil to his house on Nantucket, have also seen him driving around the island when I lived there. He's very nice.

Trump: "Oh shit. I have zero foreign policy victories to stump on my re-election campaign. Guess I'll try those Taliban peace talks that I myself scrapped mere months ago.":

https://www.nytimes.com/2019/11/28/us/politics/trump-afghanistan.html

During his short visit on the ground on Thursday, Mr. Trump boasted of American military successes against Al Qaeda and the Islamic State and suggested that the Taliban was eager to make a peace deal, but that he personally was indifferent to the outcome.

The Taliban wants to make a deal well see if they make a deal, Mr. Trump said. If they do, they do, and if they dont, they dont. Thats fine.


Translation: "I don't really give a shit what the outcome is as long as I squeeze a few more idiots' votes out of this."

I'd commend this move if it weren't so glaringly obvious he's only doing this for his campaign, which the quote above clearly illustrates.
