That was revised in slightly newer cars, where the vacuum lines from the engine were required to hold the headlights closed. So when the mechanism inevitably failed, you had permanently deployed headlights until/if it was repaired.

It's also just weird.
Along the same lines,

I have a Jansport that's about that old from the college days. It's held up pretty well I must say. No idea about newer ones.
When I was in college, I would have thought it crazy to be using a backpack older than I was.
You're not getting anymore security patches, but as long as you keep your browser up to date and generally be careful about what you download and run (as you should already be doing) you'll likely be just fine.
I'd estimate sometime around 2029 or so the major browsers as well as security software will start dropping support for Windows 10 and at that point you may need to start thinking about moving to something else if you haven't already done so.
Essentially, no. If you don't care about the cost, maybe with a MSDN subscription.
The main thing is to find a good external speaker though that doesn’t auto-sleep in the middle of one’s show…
That's a thing now? It's been a while since I've shopped for speakers, but other than those Google/Alexa jobs they seemed to be about as dumb as rocks. Which is exactly they way I want them.
The video player in Winamp is also completely non-functional in Wine the last time I tried it, as it relies on DirectShow in Windows which has very iffy Wine support. That may also be why it's marked as silver.
It's too bad as I really liked using Winamp as a video player in Windows, despite it's quirks.
It's either that or the baseboard heater right behind the TV stand.
DDG has also really gone downhill for me. It's still noticeably better than Google, but DDG nows does a lot of the same shit that originally made me give up on Google years ago. I'm assuming a big part of this is because DDG heavily sources their results from Bing, and while Bing does manage to be better than Google, it's not much better.
I really need to put some effort into trying out a few more search engines and seeing if they are any better. Last time I looked, many of them were also pulling results from Bing so they all had similar issues.
A lot of that sort of armor is more designed to deflect hits off of it. If someone can get a solid hit in, it's possible to cut through it.
Which leads to another pet peeve of mine, which is armor that's clearly designed in a way that it wouldn't be good at deflecting hits. Particularly anything for women that has cups for the breasts.

As someone who also likes VFDs, I've fully expected that they'd be extinct in new products by now thanks to cheap LCDs and OLED. But I find it awesome that they're still hanging in there.
