Once the ICE version of the new Dodge Charger goes on sale, despite its twin-turbo I6 not having that sweet, sweet V8 burble, it still easily outsells the Charger EV:

There’s nothing appealing about this and it rightfully got heckled and booed when it was unveiled in front of a crowd a few months ago. There’s more to the STI than brakes, bolt on stiffening, and seats. It’s missing LSDs and DCCD, which makes it decidedly nowhere near an STI. This is merely an option package made in…

...calling your production shingle ‘One Race’ doesn’t really seem like a good idea.

Zero percent chance these Chick-fil-As will open on Sundays. If they can’t find a legal loophole or exception or sue someone, they’ll close the entire restaurant before they open up on Sundays. They’ve been pressured in one place or another for decades to stop closing on Sundays and there’s no way they’ll let the…

Service areas that would have been fine with a minor facelift were torn down and replaced with brand new, poorly designed facilities and contracted to a chain restaurant known for not operating on Sundays - a day that people often use the Thruway for travel.

I think if you’re not at least partially anxious and joyless in our current world situation, there’s probably something wrong with you anyway.

The sad part is that the Snyder Cut is actually better than the theatrical release. Which just goes to show how bad the theatrical release is.

But-but the “Star Wars cantina” scene is set in a brothel! What better illustration of Zac Snyder’s deconstructive genius could anyone possibly need?!

It’s cutting costs by stealing its ingredients from other factories.

The current use of AI can be equated to NFTs in that it is a grift by people who don’t understand art but want to profit off of it. For some reason, business types don’t want to use AI to erase the tedious parts of human existence but the artistic ones that people enjoy creating.

The key demographic is older male consumers ages 45 to 54,

It’s not just a cultural problem; it’s a infrastructure problem.  Europe has way better public transit options.  That has to have a huge impact on drunk driving rates.

This argument only works if everyone bought new cars every year. Both are a process. 

It means the poster doesn’t know how citizenship works.

Ugh. I struggled reading this. I think the author is a talented writer, and I know she wrote with the best intentions.

But there’s a few problems, here.

First is the scope. The article paints this as a video game problem. But you could write the same article about any fictional media that is created to appeal to an…

That is the world we live in now. I don’t know why they would ignore it or not include it since the game is meant to be around modern day. Wouldn’t surprise me if it was definitely a main component with a built in social of some kind as a way to legitimately share moments with other players in game. 

“Man, I am just so done with the cosplay aesthetic of adaptations lately.” Pretty sure I did exactly that, chief. If you think this looks good, great. I think it looks like dogshit.

Except it is very clearly depicted in a realistic style, aside from the cosplay-ass video game inserts.

Man, I am just so done with the cosplay aesthetic of adaptations lately. This slavish devotion to trying to match stills from your live action thing to rendered/animated screenshots such that it destroys any sense of verisimilitude it might’ve had. That does not look like a suit of power armor, it looks like a…
