Is it okay to use a different starter relay instead of the specified one for your car?

I made a post here last week about my car not starting, turns out it was the starter relay. Got that fixed, and then yesterday same problem, no start, relay went bad again. I called my friend to pick me up a new one, and he said he had an old one from a Toyota carolla that I could use instead. He put it in and the car started working again just fine. I asked him to go to Auto Zone to grab me another spare just in case, and he said “there was a $12 one next to the $22 one that you wanted, so I just got you the $12 instead. It’s the same thing and they’re both 12 volt so it doesn’t matter.” I just want to make sure this can’t cause any other massive issues down the road. Google says it could cause issues like short circuiting the cars electrical system, or welded contacts. I guess they might be the same type of relay but have different pin configurations, which I have no idea what that means.

TLDR; Is an old Toyota corolla starter relay safe to use in my 2018 Hyundai sonata, and is there any difference between the $12 starter relay and the $22 starter relay?

Which side quests in Fable Anniversary are worth doing?

In preparation for the new fable game, I’m playing the old ones. I only ever played 3, and beat it at least 20 times. I always heard people say it was awful compared to the older ones so I wanted to give them all a try. I’m almost done with the main story, and absolutely loving it. Outside of that, the few main quests I’ve done seemed pretty sub par. Similar to Skyrim radiant quests or something of that nature. So I was wondering if you guys could tell me your favorite parts of the game outside of the main story so I can check them out before moving on to fable 2. Specifically, I’m looking for:

Most interesting/favorite side quests

Any information or areas that are called back to in fable 2 or 3, so I have the context of the first game

NPCs that are referenced or show up later

Or really just anything of interest that you would like me to experience in the game, that you enjoyed.

Thanks for the help!

Pretty much the title. 2018 Hyundai sonata. Had an oil leak that was apparently worse than I thought. When I tried to start it made no noise whatsoever, and the check amber engine light plus the red oil light was on. Checked the oil, almost completely dry, with just the very end of the stick with a bit of oil on it. Noticed a light burning smell when driving this week, but other than that, no issues whatsoever. No sounds, no weird driving or accelerating, no indicator lights. I literally just drove it last night around 6-7, no issues. But won’t even start this morning. So what are the odds that I screwed up massively and ruined the engine?

Edit: Waiting on a call for the diagnostic now. Just wanted to say thank you to everybody, this is quite literally the nicest most helpful sub I’ve encountered on Reddit. Expected quite a few downvotes and disparaging comments because of my dumb decision making, but I really appreciate the genuine help and advice.

If you were trying to get through 54th Ave N and 16th St. N and couldn’t, this was why. I was able to speak with 2 people about it, one was a direct witness, and one works at the gas station right in front of where it happened. According to them, the officer was speeding with his lights and sirens off when he hit the motorcyclist. They said that the motorcyclist was dead before paramedics could arrive, but news articles are claiming he is still in critical condition. What’s more concerning, after blocking off the entire area and diverting traffic, officers have been accused of pouring bleach over blood spots at the scene of the accident before any investigators could arrive to document. The person who witnessed this later called Pinellas Park police to ask if this was common practice or procedure, but they immediately connected his call to St. Petersburg police directly.

What do you guys think?

Traffic is getting worse and worse here, but the past few days has been absolutely ridiculous. It’s been like rush hour traffic for the entire day. The turn onto US19 from Gandy was backed up all the way to the Wawa at 11AM on a Wednesday. So what gives? Somebody told me BTS was having a concert in Tampa but I can’t imagine that would have this much of an impact in the next county over. It’s been unbearable.

Maybe I’m just jaded and paranoid from previous reboots in my favorite film and media, but I have a really bad vibe about the new game any time I get new information about it. I’m afraid that they’re just using the Fable title to bank off of previous fans but turning it into an entirely different thing all together. They’re removing two things that I would have considered to be an essential part of the fable aesthetic; the dog companion, and the morality based cosmetic changes. Those two things were such a big part of the heart of fable, and they were pretty unique to fable as a whole. I’m also not crazy about the “office style cut aways” they’ve talked about implementing, that just sounds like cringe melinial humor to me if it doesn’t land right, and I don’t have high hopes for it. Idk not trying to be a negative Nancy, just wanted to see if anybody else was skeptical or felt the same worries I do.
