Except that the Quadra came in a conventional tower form factor that could be serviced and upgraded.

It sounds like you don’t know much about the plethora of stable high-end workstations available to professional users. Your perception of PCs seems to be stuck in the year 2000, although even back then you could find excellent, reliable workstations. They were expensive, as they are now, but you do enjoy better value…

Yes, and for years now people have given Microsoft shit for problems that were caused by third party software and hardware. Those were the consequences, I suppose, of not locking down the platform like Apple have done.

It’s just a dark iMac... Sure, it’s an attractive computer, but calling it the sexiest desktop ever is a stretch.

Counterpoint: A-Wings are the best-looking fighters in all of Star Wars.

I fully expect The Last Jedi to be better than The Force Awakens. The cynic in me says that it was even planned that way. The first played off nostalgia and was just good enough to draw people in, but left plenty of room for the sequel to improve.

BBS has some great looking wheels, but these are not one of them. They’re too spindly and I don’t like the design of the hub.

If nothing else, the styling is a massive improvement.

Martino has said that MLS should move to a promotion-relegation model, but I’m not sure if it’s something he’d push for in the near term.

It happens all the time in Europe. How they compare to Americans, however, I can’t say. As for Japan, it doesn’t seem as prevalent because generally they are more mature and considerate.

I enjoy the sound of these cars better when they’re alone on the track. The whine makes them sound purposeful; something that’s absent when a whole field of these cars is sliding around and bumping into stuff. Normally, it sounds like a bunch of RC cars being knocked around.

Horses have always been expensive to own and care for, relatively speaking. Generally they were reserved for nobility and the military so your average person would have never ridden a horse, much less have a need for the skill.

There’s no way in hell that will be cost effective. As another poster suggested, what we’re more likely to see is cars themselves being more insistent about maintenance. The onus will be on owners to keep their cars in proper running order and I’m sure terms and conditions will make all that quite clear.

From the side mirrors back it looks like a complete different car. The proportions, body lines and angles just don’t seem to match up.

The demand is there, so I don’t understand why Nintendo continues struggling to boost production.

There seems to be a lot of arrogance here for something so generic. This car looks like every other urban transport flight of fancy. They’re all over-styled, unrealistically ambitious designs wrapped in marketing BS.

I have to contend with I95 traffic every single day in Connecticut. Along with relatively high income and property taxes we also enjoy some of the highest gasoline tax in the country. However, you’d never guess it by looking at the condition of our roads.

It has nothing to do with oral health. People still see the dentist in other countries. Americans, however, fixate on having perfect-looking teeth.

I’ve lived in New England most of my life and only had winter tires for a couple of years. While they were better than all seasons they weren’t magic. I haven’t really missed them despite a couple of unusually snowy winters. In the end, I consider them a luxury more than a necessity, at least in my part of the…

I’m not surprised at all. My city switched out all the street lamps for LEDs roughly 2 years ago. I was immediately struck by how much brighter they were; it looked like perpetual twilight or a permanent full moon.
