I've got a '91 Toyota Carina and can attest that it's very easy to work on, my friend and I pulled the engine and gearbox in under two hours with hand tools, but I can't really speak for anything modern.

My car ('91 Toyota Carina) has been on 149,999 miles since 2007.


The framing device for The Legend of Zelda games is that it's a mythological cycle in which Link, Ganon, and Zelda are periodically reborn and the plot begins anew with new characters. It lets them be flexible with the setting, side quests, and characters as the series progresses and it's been selling games for just shy of forty years.


ToTK is a direct sequel to BoTW set a few years later and supposedly starring literally the same people though.


In Ireland, you can't ride a motorcycle above 125cc unless you've held your license for four years. It forces people to get genuine experience before hopping on a litrebike and sending it.


When I drive my work van I use a throttle body, when I drive my car I use a carburettor. From my point of view as a user, I'm just driving a vehicle. The point is that users see a holistic system and neither know nor care about the underlying implementation details.

Yes, this is my point too. End users are not "using IPv6" even if that protocol is in use to transfer their data.


The ethno-religious conflict in Northern Ireland dates back to the seventeenth century and the question of Irish sovereignty dates all the way back to the twelfth century!


Well, it's probably worth your while to update it then.


In Ireland you need to have held your provisional license for at least six months and done 12 lessons with a certified instructor before they allow you to take the test.


It seems like we’ve no rules in the UK around it, as long as you’ve passed your theory (which you can book before 17 so it’s ready for your birthday) you can book your practical.

You’ll struggle to book one less than 6 months in advance I believe, but in theory you could be driving at 17 years and a couple weeks.


It should always be optional as not everyone using tax prep software will actually be a citizen of the country where they're paying tax or registered with said country's social welfare system. I found navigating bureaucracy a nightmare when I first moved to the UK because so many systems were set up to require a National Insurance (Social Security) number which I wasn't able to get until after I started paying tax. Notably I was denied a bank account until I complained about it on Twitter.
