Oh heellll nooo!

As a motorist of 25 years I’m damn certain I would’ve seen and avoided this person. This pedestrian AND bicycle is so far out in the lane the only reason you’d miss them is if you were speeding beyond the capability of your vision OR... you’re fucking looking down texting or whatever.

I’ve avoided cats…

It’s supposed to have LIDAR or similar sensors which detect obstacles in front of it - whether or not they’re illuminated. Part of the point of these autonomous vehicles is that they’re supposed to have better ways to detect potential problems than a human driver, and this shows that wasn’t the case.

The subscriber model is death by a thousand cuts by the time you have access to everything you want. After paying $8 here and $12 there every month, you’re suddenly out more cash than if you’d kept your cable and premium channels.

Youtube didn’t make those changes just to cheat low-volume content producers. They did it to combat bot-generated spam videos. I am sure all car enthusiasts have clicked on these wordless videos which are just montages of pictures found on the internet based on whatever keyword you searched for. These are bot…

I am willing to pay with my time. I’m unwilling to pay for a broken and incomplete experience with my time.

YouTube sucks, and it’s quickly becoming not sustainable for much beyond a solo-operated gaming channel where the operator just grinds daily.

Yeah, I think delaying it long enough to ensure all fans see it on their service then posting it on YT is the smart move. People who don’t normally visit MT or wait for MT videos won’t go to their site... there are plenty of random people on YT who would discover their videos and actually watch them. That won’t happen…

The reason why I always used Youtube was that my smart devices (T.V., Playstation, Blu-ray player) had the ability to quickly find and watch Youtube videos like Roadkill with no fuss since I could use the Youtube App installed on the device.

My frustration is two pronged. One is that when i trued to watch a video the number of ad breaks were crazy, and poorly done. If theu are controlling all aspects the least they could do is put the ad breaks on scene cuts and not mid-word.

Except that I can watch youtube on every device, it looks good and they keep good track of what I watch. Sorry but I am more likely to put money in a patreon then deal with another subscription service.

I worked in the internet sales group of the largest Toyota store in the area. All of my co-workers and I had pricelists for the whole line (including Scion) to quote to customers. The numbers we had were pretty much the lowest price within a hundred dollars or so. We would find the customer a vehicle with the…

What does it benefit a dealer to send an itemized quote via email?

One of the things I think people just don’t realize is just how bad some of the later seasons of the Clarkson, Hammond, and May run was. At some point it shifted from a car show with antics sprinkled in to an antics show with cars. I stopped watching as it became clear to me they seemed to care less and less about the…

Are you Alex Hevesy or Lance Tedford?

I don’t want that the same way I don’t want an installed nav system: my third-party solution is going to probably be better than the installed, impossible-to-repair-or-replace-when-broken, solution they come up with.

Don’t give a fuck about turbos. Need a V8.

In Canada right now you can get a B250, C300 Wagon, and GLE550 (with the 4.7TT V8). I’m surprised they sell those models there, but not in the US with such a larger population.
