Gotcha. Around here (also US) it's just an excuse to pull over certain people. It's used very selectively. TBH I wish they would enforce it equitably, there is a ton of people in this area that never use their turn signal

NGL it is a problem, because who tf gets pulled over for failure to signal? It's just an excuse to pull someone over for DWB.

A skunk habitat would improve the air quality of NYC. That place is a fetid mire of week old food garbage, stale piss, and rat droppings. Do you know why I hate NYC?

It really depends on the brand and what you're trying to do. For passenger auto I'd say Mercedes is the worst offender. From personal experience Subaru has been great about self maintenance and repair. The most complicated thing in regular maintenance is spark plugs, and that's because of the boxer engine. A friend's Mercedes, on the other hand, has to have the oil changed at the dealer, because the oil fill is inaccessible without special tools.

On Ford Transit full sized vans, the rear brakes require special tools and are very involved because of the rear axel design, but the headlights and signals are not LED and still easily replaced. Chevy Express cargo vans effectively haven't changed mechanically since 1995. Some Ford engines have such delicate spark plug inserts that all mechanics have helicoil rebuild kits on hand at all times. If you're not aware and try to change your plugs yourself, you might very well have to pay for a tow to the nearest mechanic to repair what should've been a simple plug change.

I'm not saying your personal experience is inaccurate, but perhaps limited on scope. Or not. I don't know

Don't get me started on John Deere tho

Oh man, the horror. Whatever will we do? I can't imagine there's any way we could obtain these games without contributing to the existence of this company. There's nothing to be done. If only there was some, you know, exercise focused young woman that enjoyed traveling all of the time. So much so that her friends would pick on her. "That fit girl," they'd say, "she just packs and repacks." If only we could find this fit girl. I'm sure she could help us find a solution to this quandary

I bought a two bay Synology for $270, and a 20TB hdd for $260. I did this for multiple reasons. The HDD was on sale so I bought it and kept buying things. Also I couldn't be buggered to learn everything necessary to set up a homemade NAS. Also also i didn't have an old PC. My current PC is a Ship of Theseus that I originally bought in 2006.

You're not wrong about an equivalent NAS to my current pc specs/capacity being more expensive. And yes i did spend $500+ on my NAS And yet I also saved several days worth of study, research, and trial and error by not building my own.

That being said, reducing e-waste by converting old PCs into Jellyfin/Plex streaming machines, NAS devices, or personal servers is a really good idea

Oh my fault it sounded like you were only there for a few more days based on other comments you made, sorry I misunderstood.

Would your neighbor be willing to set up the trail cam when it comes? Otherwise this seems like something that'll have to wait till you're back home. As others suggested, waiting in the bushes is a recipe for misery.

If you're dead set on catching the person, start logging (ha ha! log) the days it happens. Once you narrow down the pattern try waking up every couple hours to see if they left a fresh one, then you have a future stakeout time. Once you have the pattern and time window, grab a friend, a couple clubs, and when you catch them, persuade them with reason, logic, and threats of violence
