[05:55] DaemonFC And everyone has a full synth oil with that now. Walmart's Super Tech has three versions that all say dexos 1 gen 3 on the bottle. [05:55] DaemonFC You see that, you know it's not crap. And GM gives them surprise audits and can take away their license for putting that on the bottle. [05:56] DaemonFC They go in and buy bottles of it every so often and send it to the lab to see if their lawyers need to be in touch with the oil company. :) [05:57] DaemonFC So I would say that if you drive a Honda, a Toyota, a Ford, a Chrysler, whatever, look for GM's oil certification, because it's more stringent on all points than any other manufacturer that I know of. [05:57] DaemonFC These modern engines are super finicky. It does not take much to screw them up. The older cars were a lot more forgiving. You could almost go into the store and buy whatever you wanted and never have an engine problem. [05:58] DaemonFC Like, GM used to spec 10w40 on the engine I have. Then they specced 5w30. I know a lot of people who use anything from 0w30, 5w30, 10w30, 0w40 through 10w40, and the engine just simply doesn't care too much. [05:59] DaemonFC These new engines that say use 0w16, you use anything else it'll blow up. [05:59] schestowitz gonna check for typos [05:59] IPFS IPFS downstream 60 minutes average 34.13 k/sec., IPFS upstream 215.23 average k/sec., average swarm size 0 [05:59] DaemonFC I usually grab 5w30 for the warmer months because it's not an odd viscosity rating. ● Aug 07 [06:00] schestowitz "Clown windows" [06:00] schestowitz :) [06:00] schestowitz Ballmer jumping up and down [06:00] schestowitz maybe too much crack [06:00] DaemonFC Then near the middle of December I'm in there paying eight bucks a quart for 0w30 before the "Fahrenheit and Celsius are the same!" days start. [06:01] DaemonFC Because I noticed with the Impala and the Buick they both made a hell of a lot of noise on those days. [06:01] DaemonFC And what that is, is the oil taking longer to get to the top of the engine. [06:01] DaemonFC So they almost sound like "NoooooOOOOOOOO!!!!!" and then they calm down. [06:01] DaemonFC But if you switch to 0w30 before those days roll around, they fire right up and sound perfect. [06:02] DaemonFC But then you want to get another oil change around the end of May before it gets super hot again. [06:02] DaemonFC So you _can_ run 5w30 year round but it's not a terrific option for this part of the country. [06:03] DaemonFC If I moved a few hundred more miles north I'd give up and go 0w30 all the time. [06:03] schestowitz "Microsofts Windows revenue is cooling fast."

[08:21] DaemonFC "No, City of Hope is not as bad as Cancer Treatment Centers of America (CTCA) when it comes to "woo woo crap." CTCA has been criticized for its promotion of unproven and potentially harmful alternative treatments, such as hyperbaric oxygen therapy and chelation therapy. City of Hope, on the other hand, is a leading cancer research and treatment center that focuses on evidence-based medicine. [08:22] DaemonFC In 2017, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a warning letter to CTCA for making false and misleading claims about its treatments. The FDA found that CTCA was promoting unproven treatments as "cures" for cancer, and that it was making false claims about the safety and effectiveness of these treatments. [08:22] DaemonFC City of Hope has not been accused of making any of these same claims. In fact, City of Hope's website specifically states that it "does not offer unproven or alternative cancer treatments."

[08:26] schestowitz crackpot matt [08:26] DaemonFC It's a science but they won't let you see it.

[08:28] DaemonFC I would like it if someone would pass a law making a bottle of motor oil like a box of cheerios, where it has to tell me everything that's in there and why. [08:29] DaemonFC There are substantial differences even between the ones that say dexos1 gen3 (the GM standard on them, and a very tough standard).
