2nd Gear: Nooo. I’m casually in the market for a 3/4 ton and came to the conclusion that Chevy/GM was the only good option (Ram apparently has weak transmissions and my FiL has a Ford dealership and says he wouldn’t own one if he didn’t get it for free). That left GM. Are there any good auto manufactures anymore?

Hard disagree with C4 having “good looks”. Literally the ugliest of all the corvette generations 

It’s too bad we can’t take waste like this into places thousands of miles from civilization, eg Gobi Desert, Sahara desert, Greenland, Nunavut, etc

“ is that the external air-conditioning units and auxiliary-powered cooling systems don’t always function properly because of maintenance problems or neglect.”

I’ve been craving a bike again. I had a Ninja 250 in 08 that got stolen, then several years later a Honda CBR 650 which I ended up only riding 4k miles over two years so I sold it. But I’m moved to a much prettier part of the country with much nicer weather and seeing all the bikes on the road when summer hit really…

I find fishing boring so I know nothing about the lifestyle, but I would have never guessed a boat that small could have an engine that big and cost that much. 

Tesla Model 3s are considered luxury? All I’ve ever heard about them is how they fall apart

Neat idea, but it will take a lifetime to build a small structure if your max payload is 72lbs and it only travels at 1mph. For some context, a single bag of concrete at Home Depot is 80lbs, and to do a slab in a 10'x10' area would require 55 bags. so they would need hundreds of these things moving one rock at a time. 

Light-scythes when?

Isn’t that the guy who’s laptop data they won’t release for 65 years?

Its just guy stuff. It is fun to suffer with your friends. In college my best friend and I went to a local wings place that had some of those sign a waiver level of wings. We ordered a plate of five (minimum order for some crazy reason) and each ate one. Not a little Hot Ones celerity nibble but the entire thing. It…

Now if we can just get them to change the interior to not look like someone super glued a giant tablet to a thin dashboard.

I don’t know enough about the stock market so this is probably a dumb question, but: What would happen if the stock market was just completely abolished? People manipulate it or soft “cheat” (eg using software to buy and sell down to the millisecond), there is insider trading, etc. It all seems like a scam to make the…

I actually like the video game vibe going on. I like the muted palette of the city contrasted to the over saturated golds and yellows of the other parts. I’m getting Dark City and Sucker Punch vibes, with some other stuff. I’m here for it. I’m not a Coppola fan, I thought the Godfather trilogy was boring (gasp, I…

“Early word from distributors was that the movie is highly uncommercial”

That’s a good thing. People are finally getting tired of “the formula”, I think...I hope

Honestly just looks like a generic fantasy film using a lot of copy pasted scenes from the original trilogy (eg, here’s a shot of Mordor, here’s a shot of a bridge, here’s a closeup of an archer pulling his bow). Very uninspired.

I’m currently on the fence about ADUs. It’s nice someone can add a home to a high density area when so many countries are having housing crisises, but the look, being on top of your neighbors etc is kinda meh. ADUs are extremely common in Canada in the major cities. Its wild to me they want to double their population…

Tip: start learning to build your own home. I’m currently building a $700,000 house for myself for roughly $290,000. The Trades are really screwing over people with their labor costs. Had an electrician quote me $5400 to hook up my meter main. I watched a few YouTubes and did it myself for $700 and four hours of my…

“ Dawn shows how the choices of one or two bad apples set in motion a domino effect leading to that new world.”

Honestly, I feel like that’s a trope in Hollywood anymore. From Game of Thrones to Walking Dead to a hundreds of other shows and movies, it feels like writers just don’t know how to write interesting or…
