Have you seen rust? I couldn’t code like that, what a silly language https://lemmy.world/post/26105353

That’s weird, a physicist that deals with the empirical world, how does the rest of your tribe feel about you? I promise you we can treat you better in engineering, but the initiation might be a little hard for you. It includes a lot of chanting “pi is 3”, “what good is science if you don’t apply it”, and “that’s a weird parameter, I’ll just try setting it to one”

If you want to code like MATLAB but keep the leather elbow patched sports jacket and cozy office, maybe try getting plastered and code Visual Basic, it has the same feeling to it.

And sun glasses, don’t forget the aviators.

While Mr “I can’t code without a garbage collector” is still putting on his backplate of “oh no pointers are bad” and a duck typed full face helmet, to ride his interpreted moped, the big boys, Mr C-ool and Mr ASSembly, are already downing grain alcohol at the finish line.

But then again I really don’t like to step out of my embedded RTOS bubble. It really depends on what you want to accomplish and how complicated your system is.

As a Dane, I can attest that the suggested activity is already among the most popular of Swedish pastimes.

TBF There’s a small portion of cybertruck owners that didn’t know it when they bought it. We’re talking about the initial pre-orderers, like Hoovies garage https://youtube.com/watch?v=mNXhq4dWClY

Granted Tyler’s brand is making stupid decisions, like a Nikocado Avocado but with cars. That he later got the model S plaid must be on him, but at the time the cybertruck looked cool and Elon seemed like a real life Tony Stark. Heck, I wanted one. Good thing I didn’t have the spending cash for a pre-order.

What is this “real” concept anyway?

Adam Savage famously stated on Mythbusters “I reject your reality and substitute my own”

Sure, but is reality even real then? Is anything real?

Not that I meant to get all pop-philosophical on this beautiful Sunday morning, sorry about that.

I agree with both of you, but it would seem OP isn’t a position to borrow money for a nice pair of boots, but just need to replace the replace the duct tape currently employed as footwear.

Other have said it too, but I’ll boil it down:

• Budget beaters are not on car apps. That’s mostly dealers, who will be making a profit.
• Buy from individuals. Use general second hand platforms instead, like facebook marketplace or what is used in your location.
• Be weary of private individuals flipping cars, they’re looking for profit like dealers, but will have done nothing in terms of maintenance beside the painfully obvious, which will have been a diy job with the cheapest parts available.
• Running costs are a PITA. Besides insurance and fuel you should look at what a set of tyres costs. For some reason that’s a somewhat decent indicator of maintenance costs level.
• Depending on periodic inspection rules in your country, buying a recently inspected car can mean you have a car for 2 years that you can discard afterwards, instead of sinking a shit loaf of money into maintenance ahead of the next inspection.
• Depending on where you live, cars can have been used as collateral for car loans. Typically not at your price point, but it’s something to be aware of. Buying a super cheap car, only to find out that it comes with 2 times it’s price in debt sucks.

What’s your budget? I mean I don’t think 10k € is a car for broke people, but are we talking 5k? 2k? I found a local Suzuki Wagon R+, 20years old, ugly AF faded paint, but a solid car with a couple of years left, listed for 13k DKK, that’s like 1700 €. I don’t think that you’ll have much luck finding cheaper cars than that.

I’d go to the basement of the guy’s mom from that other post about only storing 100GB and steal his 130PB SAN.
