I honestly feel like that’d be a good move? Give it the proper time for 2025 expansion, put in the stadium, and make it also be usable for concerts and stuff, something that Seattle actually has a bit of trouble hosting (at least on a large scale). I’d even be fine with it being tax-free or tax-rebated and with other…

Alternate answer: why are all the managers men?  Promote, or hire, a woman manager, so that when issues like this arise in the future you don’t have to be asking yourself this stuff, and can also get input from a manager who isn’t going to feel as uncomfortable about it.

A car like that is, IMO, far better used as a reference point for doing a restoration/restorations of other cars. Because to some degree, it’s nearly impossible to have a “perfect” reference for restoration work.

Though, that said, I personally feel like restomodding a classic car is always going to be better than a…

I’d like to pretend I’ll do something other than drive the UNSC Warthog 80% of the time, but.....

Yeah.  UNSC Warthog.

I really like the straight-line shifter in my 2010 Mustang; pushing the button in halfway is an easy enough press and lets you shift out of park into RND, you can push the shifter into N from R or D, without hitting the button at all, but it takes intent (it’s not loose at all), but to shift into any of the low gears…

When given a choice between the two (and any third option that you already know won’t succeed, regardless of how closely you align with it), pick the one that will do the least harm to the greatest number of people, and which is least opposed to the principles you hold most important.

In other words, it’s better to be…

The Basecamp hadn’t even been on my radar, but I’ve seriously been looking at getting a truck and a camper trailer and just travelling to visit friends for a while, and it looks like it’d perfectly fit my needs.

At a smaller scale, the Speed Champions sets are *fantastic*.  And on the larger end, the Technic cars, while expensive and HUGE, are gorgeous as hell, too (so far there’s a Porsche somethingorother and a Bugatti Chiron in that specific line, plus a few other race cars that fit the 1:8 scale)

Memes are, by their nature, transformative works, and thus fair use.

Warthog confirmed.  Just preordered.  Favorite damn vehicle in FH3.

I think one of the big reasons these films have stayed (relatively) niche (in that it’s really just a “preaching to the converted” situation) is that they *can’t make fun of themselves*. Looking at some of the most popular explicitly Jewish or Muslim films, there’s a definite element of “We know this thing we…

Oh my god, ohmygod you guys!

I’m befuddled that they’re using “Mach 1" for this instead of, say, Falcon, and then making a hybrid (or all-electric) Mustang and *not* using the Mach 1 name for it.

It’s because the papers she’s signing are probably a legal document, and they’re copying everything to an electronic form. They can’t do anything but copy her information exactly, so they need her to check the box so that they can, legally.

That’s not what this is talking about, though. This is about systems that take the engine noise and artificially pump it into the otherwise super-quiet cabin. Sound Tubes are the only analog way of doing it, but most of the speaker system versions aren’t recording actual engine noise, but just playing pre-sampled…

Counter-argument on sound tubes specifically: They are *fantastic* and are doing nothing but pumping actual engine noise into the cabin. Speakers and shit, though? Fuck. That. Noise.

I literally do it just going to Starbucks for my morning tea. And my lunch tea. And my afternoon tea. And my evening tea.

Why’s it look so boring? Old one looked fun, new one looks like a middle-aged guy’s idea of fun.

Real-time, the New York stuff was closer to *maybe* 10 minutes, if not less. They spend more time talking and getting their legs under them in the slow buildup to the fight in the street than the fight itself takes, *in its entirety*. And then the chase *in* the city takes about the same amount of time.

Before and during, from what we’ve been told.
