Check your owners manuals for what's needed and allowed in your engine and how often to change it. Stick to the mfg's specs for oil grade and specifications, but don't be afraid to pick one of the other grades that are allowed if you have a reason to do so.
For example, I run one of the allowed heavier weight oils in my engine because I want the extra viscosity.

So I'm sitting in the local steak house and the waiter asks me how I would like my steak cooked?
Me: Like winning an argument with my significant other.
Waiter: Rare it is!
Did a little mechanic work today.
Put a rear end in a recliner!

I found all over the USA, rare is not possible to order and 'medium' is really close to well done, aka ruined. In Oklahoma, asking for medium gets you a raw piece of meat
|
|
|
|
|
That's because going to Oklahoma is like stepping back into the 1960's.

I went to a festival called Rocklahoma, so it was the 80s I was stepping into.

In Texas, tell the waiter that the only burn you want on the steak is rope burn. It works in New Jersey, too.
|

Not in Dallas. They tell you legally they cannot go below medium.

I'd pay for my drink at this point and walk out - no tip. That's a bold faced lie by the restaurant owner.

I went to Dallas four times a year for a decade. Every place I asked for medium rare steak said the same. I took it to mean 'I am scared you will sue me'

In Italy (piedmont region) we have several raw cow dishes, just diced and sometimes with a sprinkle of lemon on it (it acts as cooking).
In all of Italy carpaccio is quite appreciated - cow or fish. In fact I was baffled when people were dising sushi because "OMG it' raw fish you're gonna die!!1!!" while carpaccio, which is the same, is fine.

Well, yes there's dishes where the meat is cooked by acid, not heat. And beef and fish are OK to eat row.

[slow clap]
Well done.
(no, wait...that's not what I meant...)

installed .net 4.8, noticed that a ".dotnet" and subdir "telemetry" (or something like that) quietly appeared in my c:\users\<myname> folder.
not sure if they do the same on other platforms, not sure (and don't care) what they're watching,
but it's really getting out of hand.
I replaced it with a junction to my temp folder - a folder I regularly empty.
I get tired of winduds hiding temp, info collection and cache folders [randomly?/haphazardly?/purposely?] throughout the directory tree,
...at least [most] linux apps use properly designated directories for most of these. (usually those linux apps that also hide these folders all over the place are ported from windud apps.)

While this is unfortunately true, a large number of bugs are discovered via telemetry.

We're all developers here. Do you not log things?
Where I work, our helpdesk/support software's auto-response system includes a message that asks people for the logs our software generates. If they don't include them, odds are we'll be asking for them before we close a case, unless it's for something trivial we've seen time and again.

Sorry, I should have made it clear that I was imitating the West's current Great Leaders.
Maybe by shouting "FAKE NEWS!", or something.

"I keep hearing that [...]"-type of thing, with no attempt at ever mentioning an actual source?
Yeah, ok.
