Refreshing A Mid-90s Nissan
That car will never go up in value. The interior refresh will cost you 2k, exterior and incidentals another 2k or more. From a financial perspective it makes zero sense to put 4k+ into a 3k value car, but only you know how much the sentimental value is worth to you. I've done a lot dumber things.

Bangkok - why isn’t it more known?
Uh, it's the most popular tourist destination in SEA and one of the top10 in the world. Nearly all of Asia and a good portion of the Middle East consider it a top destination, doubly so with the legalization of weed. How much more known do you want?

there was a shaggy thread (or maybe hornfans) about a couple crossing The Congo in a landcruiser

Markets still falling like whoa
But keep in mind that the primary reason RMB isn't picking up use is completely out of our control. It's not really up to us to "fuck up." If China decides to accept the domestic economy hit that floating RMB will bring, and proves to the world over many years that they're serious about it, they'll take a large chunk of global reserve usage and there's zero we can do about it.

Sporty Hatchback or Similar: What Car to Buy?
Mechatronics thread https://rennlist.com/forums/porsche-macan/1292486-transmission-problems-beware-2.html Be aware this transmission is used in many other cars as well. If you are looking at Porsche or Audi, be very aware that they are ~100k time bombs that (dealer) cost 20k to replace. At bare minimum change the fluid often.

Sporty Hatchback or Similar: What Car to Buy?
See my comment earlier about mechatronics, read up on the transmission and go in with eyes open. Change the tranny fluid frequently.

Trivial Things That Make You Surly
You are a bad person and your fuel pump hates you. Car fuel pumps are immersed in fuel in the tank, the fuel keeps them cool. By running the tank too low you remove that cooling immersion and they run hotter, shortening their lifespan. Never run your tank under 1/4 if you can help it.

e) the opposite of whatever Wally does. I usually hold and forget it exists, unless I actually think it has a future (most of my stonks I don't think have a real future). If I do, I'll buy in more and forget it all exists. So, something c or d. But when you say 2x or 5x, are you referring to dollar value or to number of shares?

Having a hard time seeing why the absolute credit rating matters at all. Globally it's all relative. As long as the US has more projected strength and stability than everyone else, even if it is a B and everyone else is a C, nothing will actually change in distribution of "money" worldwide.

Ok, let's math. 100% of zero is? 200% of zero is?

Has anyone renewed a passport recently?
Renewals via foreign embassies are MUCH faster than domestic US. I posted earlier in this thread, but Thailand the new passport is in your mailbox within 3 weeks.
