  1. I don't think he's adding clickbait, but rather is GOADING those that claim his titles are clickbait when they're not.

  2. Found out when I first got the Launch Creative 5 tool, and my first scan tool for OBDII cars ever, I found out that sometimes, the tool will lead you astray by having you chase the wrong rabbit hole(s). All it takes is one part to cause a chain reaction of other parts to not read correctly. In my case, a slightly off timed motor will do that. In 2018, my 2003 Mazda Protege 5 wagon (the Mazda 323) as it's call here in the US, popped the tension wheel spring for the timing belt one day while I was picking up the dog I was house sitting as he did a Houdini and did the "great escape" from my backyard and was picked up by a neighbor a couple blocks over and taken to the pound. He's chipped so my name was also on there as I know his owners well and they are considered family. Anyway, was en-route when the spring went spring! and embedded itself in the timing belt. Anyway, replaced the belt and spring as I had no way of knowing when the belt was last replaced, having bought the car in 2012 from the used arm of a new Honda dealer and now it's 2018 and still going... Anyway, it all boiled down to a slight mistiming of the exhaust cam I think it was that caused things like the TRIM's to not modulate, the MAF and later the MAP sensors to not "work", etc, all went back to that slight mistiming. Even the idle was like poo, but rev it up, it ran fine but all cleared up when I got the cams back spot on with the crank and all is well in Mazda land. Thankfully, this motor was the legendary, though peaky FS-DE non interference motor. Since I live on the west coast of the US, unless right on the coast or constantly driving through the mountains during winter, rust is generally not an issue here so one can still drive 20+ year old cars without having rust issues. Anyway, still drive that car and now has almost 195K+ miles on it and it still chugs down the road fine.

  3. Being autistic, I am seeing this a lot. Many folks laugh at the dumbest things, can't spell, refuse to do their own research, so they ask stuff on spaces like Quora, or YouTube as to where did you get so and so, please, pretty please? when it could have taken them a minute or two to find out for themselves if they'd lifted a finger to type the query into say, Google. I'm 60, late diagnosed but it's been something I've noted for a long time, long before I was officially diagnosed almost 3 years ago. Definitely agree that critical thinking has flown the coup, as well as EQ, emotional quotient. I read, but not as much as I used to, but was a voracious reader when younger. Used to listen to music a lot too, but I can do days without it now, preferring silence, or not if editing as I need to hear what is being recorded. Being articulated, thoughtful, with correct spelling etc are getting rare these days from most neuraltypicals. It's sad really when its become easier to lie, tell half truths, but what most forget is that it takes EFFORT to keep the lies and half truths straight, whereas the TRUTH will stay straight. Anyway, I write an answer, thinking it's not too short, and someone will say, it's a long answer/reply so attention spans have also gotten shorter too, and no, this is not ADHD but rather, folks not used to thinking for more than a few mere seconds before shutting off the brain and going on with their lives. Agree, intelligence, does go a long way.
