Notice what a bunch of whiners that Air Canada turned into—they want to have it both ways. If the chatbot works as it should, then fine. But if the chatbot fails due to Air Canada’s slovenliness over not vetting how well the chatbot guides customers’ requests, then the whiners think they should be off the hook—really?…

Fucking bigots. If colours painted on a street offend you, you need professional help.

The mesh is a catalytic converter exhaust tip. The ARA rules require every car to run a functioning cat and it must be able to be inspected, so a bunch of teams run those tips (not sure if only or secondary cat) so they don’t have to unbolt their exhaust to prove it’s in good condition.

No, it doesn’t bug me at all because I don’t doubt for a second the stupid $120K CT is bested by a cheap Subaru. btw, I love how all the hippies rush out to make excuses for Teslas.

Having been to Hidden Falls a couple of times, I can confidently state that it isn’t worth watching. I don’t think you even really need 4WD for it. That’s barely a bump and if the CT can’t do that, then it never got off of the main roads, and even then still ran into problems.

There were like 3 seconds of offroading video and the rest was dude in the backseat talking to the camera.

I was thinking the exact same thing! The article headline says “Watch a crosstrek best a cybertruck offroad” and the actual referenced video cuts out the part where the Crosstrek conquers the hill where the CT failed?? He showed the Toyota doing it, why not the Subie?

They got rid of the self scans at my local Walmart for a while and it was awful. They really do have the best self scans. Everybody else should try using them to see how to do it right. Also, I have been using them for years and have never stolen a single thing, either accidentally or on purpose, so you people that…

Dear God, no. It’s already bad enough that I sometimes have to go to Walmart (small town, so some stuff isn’t anywhere else and sometimes it’s late), but being able to check myself out and not waste time in line is the only saving grace. Being able to look up stuff on the app and get a pretty precise pin for it’s…

“There has been a lot of doom and gloom about EV adoption slowing down in the U.S. market lately.”

There is no slowing growth, there’s people waiting for the Federal Tax incentive in 2024 because you don’t need a tax liability.  in 2024 the federal tax incentive becomes a gift. 

We are not a hive mind. 

If Volvo can get the supply of EX30s onto lots, they’ll have a big hit on their hands.

It goes more than just moving equipment. One thing Ike found out about in Europe was that tactical air was a game changer on the modern battlefield (still is, although it is now drones). You can design a plane to take off from crappy fields and the like (the Russians still do), but you can get more performance for a…

There’s an abondoned project near me that came to mind when you said abandoned interchanges. In Rochester NY there’s an interchange between 590 and 104 where you can get to 590 going southbound but not northbound if you are heading west. You can see clearly on google maps where they started building the ramps to make…

I always find the interchanges to nowhere fascinating. I always like to look up the history behind them. Here are two examples I can think of:

Especially with shitty BroDozer tires that just have aggressive sidewalls.

Watching enough Matt's off-road, don't drive in what appear to be dry lake beds, there is soup hiding below the surface that wants to eat you

I find it hard to believe the Dash 8 didn’t have a transponder; they’re a requirement for operating in controlled airspace. Maybe it wasn’t an ADS-B unit but one of the older 4096 transponders? I also don’t understand how the Airbus didn’t see the Dash on the runway at night with its lights on. (But I suppose that’s…

If convicted, this would be at least Scott C. Farmer’s fifth drunk driving offense
