Oil change frequency?

I have a Prius Prim 2017 and I have always taken it in for an oil change every 3,000 miles as the car tells me to but I read recently that this is silly. My mechanic is happy to take my money, of course but is it true that 5k would be often enough? Or 6k? What do people think?

Thanks!

It won't let me crosspost for some reason (why is Reddit like this?) but a keeper got sucked in!

Is the Lenovo Tab One really so terrible?

Hi all, I bought a Lenovo Tab One some months ago and it is SOOO slow. Changing between Reddit and my e-mail and messaging apps takes upward of 5 seconds and it seems to be clearing every app from its memory each time so it has to be reloaded just to switch between them. It's just so damn slow. Is this expected? It just recently occurred to me that this was a refurbished model and so maybe there's something wrong with it and it's a lemon. It really seems unacceptable that, in 2026, a tablet should be unusably slow.

Does anyone have any experience with this?

Thanks!

Why can't I stop my onscreen keyboard popping up?

Hi all, I am using an S10 Ultra with a bluetooth keyboard and, no matter what I do, when I press on a text field (or click on it with the trackpad or an external mouse), the on screen keyboard pops up. As soon as I hit a key on the keyboard, it goes away again. This is particularly anoying when I'm proofreading a novel and it pops up over and over and the page jumps up and I lose my place. I have turned off every instance of showing the keyboard when a physical keyboard is attached to no avail. Are there any apps that would help to suppress this keyboard?

Thanks!

I love Alan Partridge

I know we all do but I just wanted to say that I have decided that he is my very favorite comedy character in the world. I have followed him since on the hour and i've watched him go from bad to worse. He is so layered and complex and three-dimensional and has a touch of sympathy to him whilst at the same time always remembering to be entirely awful in every possible way.

I think I might have gone a little mad and now I'm going to drive to Dundee in my bare feet.

Made hundreds of wristbands for a conference that suddenly got renamed

I run a small company, and designed and printed hundreds of high quality rubber wristbands for my cousin's Crypto conference. I had to do different colours for the different levels of entry.

Out of nowhere yesterday he suddenly announced he was renaming the conference and moving it partially online. And could only afford to pay me if I produced more with the new name. Ive spent a week on this so far and was already giving him family rates.

I was drunk at my buddies house and accidentally kissed his mom and fell asleep with her in the couch

It was her birthday party and everyone was having a good time and finally towards the end of the night i found myself at the end of the couch with her and she kissed me and then we went to bed. I feel absolutely terrible. I don’t know if my friend knows but the thoughts in the back of my mind knows it so wrong. We woke up and she said nothing happened so that’s good haha, but I just don’t know how to go about this now.
