Few things communicate the utter trashiness of a person better than those little red sparks bouncing off the pavement when they flick a cigarette out the window...

The world needs more roadsters with the double bubble behind the passengers

Any industry has its high-maintenance customers - try not to be one if you don’t have to be. That said, it’s a call button not an emergency button; use it when you need to call the attendants, and don’t abuse it.

I um.... I kinda like it. I mean, it’s Lego - I’m used to building cars that look nothing like proper cars

America traded an arrogant millionaire narcissist for an arrogant billionaire narcissist, and frankly not much has substantively changed. But hey, people are dying! Well...not here of course, but in other places with actual dictators, people are dying! The threat of fascism is REAL, therefore we have to harass and…

“Obviously America is nothing like Nazi Germany, but having said that I’m just going to go ahead and draw the parallel anyway...”

In my mind, a dealer selling a car at auction isn’t the same as selling it for profit. Granted, in this case, anything they get for the sale is technically profit, but who knows, it could’ve gone for $10

Nice! Kind of a shame how it’s always compared to Top Gear - the two are complementary rather than competing shows, IMO.

Honestly, if you ditch the wing and give it a more subdued paint job, I doubt anybody’d bother you at all...

The obvious problem here is that digitized biometrics basically are passwords, but you can’t change them... how is this better again?

“nonviolent drug offense — her first offense”

Opera VPN sounds cool, but is it another one of those “use somebody else’s connection, and in return we also let people use yours” sort of deals?

Lol, “vegan leather”...

Lol, “vegan leather”...

Your assertion that “typically violating the air space of an exceptionally belligerent nation with your most advanced weapon would result in a belligerent response” is completely unfounded... If they know they can’t even match you in their airspace, they’re not going to take you on in yours...  

Yeah, check out those lazy evil guys that built Fortune 100 companies from nothing >D

So to understand how much of a dickish move this is, diplomatically, it’s a bit like if the United States flew an F-22 Raptor over Pyongyang just to show that it could.

The article kind of conflates viscosity with SAE viscosity grade (i.e. the actual numbers on the bottle). Per the example, molasses has a much higher viscosity at room temperature than water, but its viscosity varies considerably with temperature and heating it up will make it flow much faster - this means molasses…

I understand these cars are crazy expensive and all, but I really can’t see how they fund all their R&D and cover all their costs and whatnot with that kind of volume...does Bugatti run at a loss and just suck money from VAG?

I’ve done this a few times, and used a couple different kits since the UV protection never seems to hold... For best results, use painter’s tape all around the headlight and a drill attachment (I think the 3M drill kit was my fav).

I might enjoy toy cars more as an adult... I can afford as many Hot Wheels as I want (not to mention drive myself to the store). I buy pretty much exclusively ‘real world’ models of cars I think are interesting, and I’ve always got extras to give to relatives’ or coworkers’ kids.
