I don’t think the point is to succeed. It is to play the victim, keep people thinking that they are being silenced by some shadowy, socialist, cabal, and maybe line their own pockets along the way with donations.

Grew up and currently live in the DMV. Can confirm that I am an asshole.

*SIGH* I’m a bit tired of people test-driving a 20+ year old car and claiming it was “underwhelming” without context. If the transmission, engine, and suspension were thrashed, your sample-size of “1" is irrelevant.

Exactly on the GTI. If you want a sports car get a sports car. If you need more practicality or don’t have room in the garage or budget for a second car but still want something that’s fun to drive, the GTI fills that need and more. It’s the car you can use to drop off the kids at school, bomb up to the track on…

100% correct take on the GTI. The Mk 3 and Mk4 were a bit of a dog, but the rest have been way more fun than the sensible engined versions of the same car.  And, in the European  context,  they are great cross country cars when roads are tight , full of off camber, twists and crests.  A nimble hot hatch will leave…

I went from a Ryzen 5 3500U Dell Laptop from 2019 to an Air M1 ($750 at Costco!) and am THRILLED with it. I waffled back and forth until I realized you can do the thermal pad mod and get the exact same performance as a 13" MBP M1.

Wish they did that with the phones too. No reason for a mini, and a regular, regular pro, and pro max. The mini should be the regular (and drop the mini name entirely), the pro the middle tier, and the max the top. But I’m sure there’s a focus group somewhere that says its more profitable to keep it less logical.

Apple shot themselves in their own foot with the M1's. There was a time where someone might actually require more power than the Air could handle, yet didn’t necessarily require the tippy-top flagship hardware. This new 13" Mac Pro would have made sense then. But with the M1's, Apple’s problem is that the Air’s are…

I wonder if they are going to refer to its successor as just MacBook again.

I upgraded December 2020 to MacBook Air M1 from MacBook Pro 13 (2011, I know, I know). More than happy about it!

I agree!

Yeah, I wouldn’t call it fast, but it did make a difference, especially in the mid range.  I remember he could rip past us on the road at will.

I’m 100% ready to spend $80K on this FJ if only it did not require premium unleaded for the supercharger. Can’t afford the cost of premium.

Nice puff piece on the greatest enemy to human kind. 

Spanfeller: Stick to genocide apology. 

Sounds like South Phila rules

So how do we really know they didn’t acquire phantom because one thing history has taught me is that the American government loves to lie.

Yep. “Promiscuo” translates to “promiscuous”, which translates to “general purpose.”
