Wait a sec...

What if I just want to disable TouchID and don’t want my phone to send a message to my emergency contacts?

I feel like a lot of the bad reputation Ikea furniture gets regarding durability comes from how it’s used. It’s inexpensive and trendy, so young people buy it. Young, college-age people who tend to move around a lot from apartment to apartment before settling down. The one thing Ikea furniture does not do well is…

It’s $700. That’s not democratizing anything.

The thing is, AFAIK, there are only a couple of engines in Mazda’s lineup right now. There’s the 2.0 and the 2.5l. So it’s the same 2.5 in the 3 as in the CX-9 but the latter has a turbo and makes 65 more hp. I just want Mazda to say “Yes that will fit and here are the part numbers.” and mayyyyybe even “Since those…

Except many of us just want the options. I don’t necessarily need another Speed3, but it would be nice if they’d offer the turbo kit (like they one they have as standard on the CX-9) for the current-gen 3. They don’t sell the stuff, and when they do, it’s only through the dealer network and nobody actually HAS any of…

I would never recommend a retractable leash under any circumstances. If you believe your dog needs extra freedom to roam around, you need to train it to be off-leash entirely. In almost any kind of setting, from urban to rural, a retractable leash will get tangled up in the landscape. Many hiking trails require a…

My first exposure to the Nissan Skyline was when I “won” an R33 in Gran Turismo for beating some track or championship or something. I was like “Really? Thanks for the norm-core family car, GT. psssh.” Then, I discovered that the car could be tuned to almost 1000hp in the game and still held around corners. It was…

And yet, here you are giving the entire situation real estate.

I love everything about this. I love that it’s orange. I love the awesome cutouts in the front fascia. I love that it looks like a slightly-more-refined aussie-spec V8 supercar for the road. I love that it has 4 seats so I can tear my dog’s face off in the wind. I don’t care even a little bit how much it costs. If I…

...but fuck your expensive musical instrument.

I did this to my car a while ago. It’s mostly harmless, although there are a couple of the hacks that don’t work well with certain firmware versions and you have to read and do your homework to make sure you don’t brick your system.

Did you watch the keynote?

When the teaser image is of the whole team lining up behind the goalie who’s bent over, I was expecting more than for someone to just *say* fuck.

What this is, is a slow-burn tactic to allow the government to search laptops without consent or permission. Not for bombs, not for physical threats, but to do what they’ve been unable to do without causing an uproar before. Search for data. If your laptop is checked, it gets inspected without you being there. They…

In my previous car I installed a Pioneer head unit with Car Play built in. I had a love-hate relationship with it.

Jesus christ. Did we not learn this in grade school?

Wait, this is the SAME United that told a young girl she couldn’t wear leggings on a flight because she represented the airline while flying on an employee pass? I’d say that calling the cops to drag a paying customer off an airplane so your employees can fly for free does WAY MORE to represent your airline than some…

Nice Price. Fred did one of these a couple years ago on Dirt Every Day for the cheap truck challenge. It’s a great little platform to go off-roading in and you won’t really care that the head gasket is blown, but if you wanna fix it up it shouldn’t be too terribly hard. Put another $2k into it and you can have a…

I thought what I’d do was, I’d pretend I was one of those deaf-mutes.
