Four wheels good, eight wheels bad.

I have it on good authority that the Germans did some bad stuff in the 1930s-40s but, after what this kid did to that Porsche, I think maybe we’re squaresies.

Longtime LA driver here. LA is hell, but it’s also heaven. Late at night, when the traffic has finally subsided, the freeway system becomes the miracle it was originally designed to be. Fast, fluid, fun, and astonishing in how far it can take you. Furthermore, if you happen to live or work near the Hollywood Hills,…

This man could not be more evil if he wore live puppy-soled shoes.

Good point. Guess they’ve left another gig they can use to shove more money at Lockheed Martin!

I know nothing about nothing, but my hunch would be that the Humvees will be shoved over to that role, while the new... thing will do the job of the hastily up-armored hummers.

There’s an HVAC actuator somewhere under the dash that makes a repetitive snapping sound when you first start the car, but only if the air system is on and set to use outside air. If you switch to recirculate, or run the car a while, it goes away. I’ve just learned to avoid it until the next service appointment, where…

I like Force India but for the love of Emerson Fittipaldi's mutton chops, can we please stop making every car black and pewter? McLaren's already gone dark and dull, don't lets have Force India ditch their riot of color for this too! Even the Williams added a bunch of black for reasons that escape me. That white…

My first car was a four-door LE. Good little car. Steering was quite good and it accelerated well enough if you gave the pedal enough shoe. Alas, it had a flaw that could be literally fatal. That car had some TERRIBLE brakes. They were tiny and did a lousy job of bringing it to a halt. I don't think I ever knew how…

First off, thanks for sending me off on an F-8/A-7 geekout. So that was helpful to my life. Seriously though, really good article. I'd been aware of the F-8/A-7 for a while, but I had no idea it was actually a hard-turning gunfighter of an air-to-air platform. Goes to show how pernicious appearance bigotry can be. The…

Easy recommendation: the Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro. Has four-position sliders on the back of each can that switch the bass from treble-forward analytical sound all the way to Beats-style thump. You can rattle your cage with bass then switch over and enjoy totally sweet trebles in jazz, classical, acoustic guitar,…

I was at a 2pm showing of this in Boca Raton and some genius decided that this was a good field trip for a group home for mentally handicapped individuals. I don't profess to be an expert on their various conditions, but clearly one of them was unequal to the task of seeing that movie, as he spent the entire showing…

Also of note: A Rainbow 6 technical designer says on their CV that they moved to an unannounced Ubisoft Montreal next-gen title in January described as a "online multiplayer open world FPS game focus on social activity and replayability," and last year, a Rainbow 6 designer moved onto "an unnanounced [sic] Ubi…

Have two pairs. The glass-lens matte chromes are amazing. Awesome build quality and durability for any price, let alone their rather affordable one.

The instrument cluster seems to be giving the wheel a "Jeez would you get a load of that ugly piece of dreck" look.

Oh, and in the absence of meat, an omelet with some cheese and vegetables will certainly do.

3 eggs alone probably wouldn't do it for me either. I always add a breakfast meat of some sort... usually chicken sausage. Also, the key is to not add sugars on top of the protein meal, so that you don't trigger an insulin surge. Orange juice, sugary coffee, etc. Big no nos.

Hear hear! Worked the same for me. (I used chicken sausage instead of bacon because my wife has residual kosher guilt, but yes, I wholeheartedly agree.)

When I used to eat a cereal-based breakfast, my experience was just like yours. By 11:30 I was clawing at my stomach. Now that I eat eggs and meat for breakfast, I only get very slightly hungry around lunchtime and usually eat something small, natural, and low-carb. Then I eat dinner as usual. Really has improved…
