Sleeping Dogs

Amazon's #1 selling external battery charger is only $12 today. It's definitely one of the smaller chargers around, but 3,000mAh should be good for a full smartphone charge on the go. [RAVPower Luster Lipstick Charger, $12]

I'm pretty sure the Wrangler and probably 50 Chrysler models use the same part. I wonder why this is focused on the WK and XK

The sad thing is that you know someone (actually, probably a group of people) filed a complaint after that story aired just to fuck up his record.

I generally try not to pass cars that have just lost a part from underneath their car and are swerving back and forth across the highway. That may just be me, though.

To be fair, RBR *does* have a history of unsafe releases.

Yea, it was a vicious attack, definitely not play.

Your dog initiated play with you by sneaking up behind you, biting your leg hard enough that you would need stitches, and shaking the shit out of it? I don't think you ever got the right exposure to how a dog should act.

The city painted the parking area terribly and defined the No Parking Zone in a way that implies people can legally park in front of the first hydrant - check out a different angle: http://goo.gl/maps/zZ3mr There's really no reason that one should blame the drivers for parking in marked parking spaces when there's a…

I don't think you're from Austin: http://gawker.com/having-grown-u…

This is something that makes no sense to me, why use them if all they're doing is emitting flavored vapor? I get that this may take the conversation outside the discussion of whether or not they require regulating, but still...

When it’s time to escalate, keep this adage in mind: "Everybody works for somebody." Regardless of the position of the person you're speaking to, they answer to someone, and that person answers to someone else. There's no reason you should ever feel like you're stuck, or have no one to escalate to. I ran into that…

My mom used to daily drive an XJ and would get in arguments about whether or not she could park in the special compact parking at her office. I DD a TJ and have had to have the same conversations on a few scenarios. Apparently, to some people, "it fits between the lines with space to open the doors" isn't…

The Pilot has side curtains, doesn't look like they did anything for the driver.

I'm still trying to figure out how this involves hacking...

And while Bernie and the FIA are all freaking out about this sort of thing, it really is all their own doing. Yes, it was mostly Renault that pushed for the current engine configuration, and yes Bernie was on record opposing it, but it's the governing bodies of the sport that set all the rules in the end.

Why do these keep moving farther away from the driver? Every time I've been in a position where I need or want to turn on my hazards, I don't want to be reaching halfway across the car to do it. What's so bad about having them on top of the steering wheel, or at least the drivers side of the dash?

Reuters reports that an investor group led by Miami based buyout firm HIG Capital is poised to purchase the Green Hell for somewhere between $82.4 and $96.2 million.

I think at lot of this is due more to gaps in the training - they go through a script and, sometimes, that script takes them to things they've never done or needed training on, so it becomes rote regurgitation. I was able to skip over half an hour of diagnosis when I contacted AT&T support via chat when one of my…
