Whitmer's fight for abortion rights helped turn Michigan blue. She's eyeing national impact now
  • I think the redistricting in 2020 helped more than abortion but I think both have been a real positive.

  • What can cause an automatic car to suddenly shake and stop?
  • Actually reading your comment again "Torque Converter" sounds really familiar so that's probably it. If we are running a pool I got $5 on stuck torque converter lockup clutch.

  • Yeah like I said I am dumb when it comes to cars and this was years ago so I may misremember. All I know is that if I got my car up over around 50mph it would shake violently and stall when I stopped. Then if it sat for 10-20 minutes it would be ok again (until it got in 4th again). I do know they disabled something that reduced my mpg slightly and I never had the issue again for the 2 years I still had the car. Again I don't remember 100% but I think he literally just unplugged a cable. Charged me 75 for diagnostics and 25 for labor.

  • I just looked up your owners manual and you have a switch on your shifter knob to turn off overdrive.

  • What can cause an automatic car to suddenly shake and stop?
  • I'm not mechanical in any way but it sounds very similar to what happened to me. It turned out to be some issue with the transmission. There is something called overdrive or something like that where when you go in 4th gear it engages and you get better highway fuel economy. The problem was it would engage but would get stuck and not disengage which would stall the engine (and shake the car violently) when coming to a stop. I took it to a mechanic and they gave me an option. Fix it for 2000 or disconnect it for 100. I disconnected it and I lost maybe 1-2mpg while driving freeway. Some cars have a button to turn off overdrive so you could try that if yours does.

  • Team Trump Mulling Deploying Military to Streets on Day 1 if Elected: Report
  • About 40% is yes...which is enough to cause serious issues.

  • What is something you dislike but still begrudgingly use?
  • Some people hate it just because they want to feel superior. They want FOSS but there is no FOSS that comes close to excel.

  • Alito wasn’t bluffing: He believes the Supreme Court is above the law
  • 9 justices 18 year terms. Staggered so that every 2 year election cycle 1 justice is up for election by popular vote. Required to be member of Bar in at least one state.

  • Who is a Youtuber you find to be overrated ?
  • The only two I like are WhistlinDiesel and Electroboom. The rest all suck.

  • packets of ketchup are super wasteful
  • They are a bit more expensive than the plastic ones but they make plastic free ones.

  • I agree. We shouldn't be able to vote / work / or pay taxes until we are 40. We are just so immature. We should focus on learning new methods to destroy the environment and housing market before we are allowed to make decisions.

  • birthday rule
  • Jaxson....that is 20 points...and it's on triple word score. I'm marking down 60 points.

  • Jesus is too liberal
  • If Jesus came back today he would make Bernie Sanders look like Rush Limbaugh...I don't understand why conservatives don't see that.

  • Trump tells Georgia witness not to testify
  • The Bat-shit crazy right would praise him for flexing his second amendment rights.

  • Is creating and maintaining a community on Lemmy hard?
  • Creating a community is easy. Being the sole content creator and marketing your community until it becomes self-sustaining is very very hard. Moderating it once it becomes sustainable is moderately hard (pun intended)
