Anecdotally, I have a Baja. Replaced the head gaskets two years ago this past summer. Then past March, I thought the HGs failed again. Waited until summer, bought a cheap Outback to drive around in the meanwhile, then threw a canopy up (I don’t have a garage). Pulled the engine and discovered the threads in the aluminum block had failed for one of the head bolts. Drilled it out, threaded it, and popped a steel insert in (Time-Sert kit).
I’ve owned enough Subarus over the years to love the boxer engines. Won’t touch a transverse mounted engine, personally. They’re always a pain to work on. Having a bed available, small though it may be, fits my lifestyle perfectly. Until another mfg puts out a small “ute” EV, I’m gonna keep wrenching on the Baja for as long as I can.
We Baja people are a special kind of crazy, though, and are definitely a niche market. I’m not keeping my hopes up.
I’ve been running Gentoo on my desktop for twenty years (it’s survived multiple changes in hardware, even going from Intel to AMD hardware). It’s fine for my laptop, too.
But my NAS/media server? KUbuntu. Easy peasy, slap it on there, update regularly, and I don’t worry about it.
Been in the Valley of Despair (Gentoo) for twenty years.
I think I like it here.

She was hallucinating about dead family members for a week in the middle. Fuck off with your “fat or had pre-existing conditions, most of which are fully controlled by diet or exercise.” She’s certainly not overweight and had no pre-existing conditons, nor was she elderly. Go fuck yourself until you have worn your fuck stick down to a nub and have no more fucks to give, you ignorant piece of shit of a person.
