It seems a bit disingenuous (perhaps sensationalist?) to use phrases like “completely fake” and “totally fake” when the two did meet and shake hands. The photo was altered to look different, but 95% of the image is real and represented a handshake that actually occurred. I guess I feel absurd even making this argument…

Induction ranges only heat the pan that is in direct contact with the cook top (via magnetism). So if you turn a burner on but there isn’t a pot or pan on it, you will not feel any heat, and it will probably turn itself off (my induction range flashes for about 10 seconds and then turns off). If there is a pot/pan on…

Zing!

She doesn’t even go to this school.

Lisa...uh...telephone call for you. It’s...Art.

In your face, Estonia!

Looks like you were at Buttermilk State Park. Welcome! I live right around the corner from the upper falls. Cool.

I’m nearly in the same boat. I have an ‘05 TSX (6-speed, but non-nav) that just passed 100K miles. It’s been rock solid...

My in-laws love bagels and always bring us a dozen when they visit. The problem is that they are loyal to their neighborhood bakery which has horrible, dense, flavorless bagels. My in-laws are very stubborn when it comes to food and do not like to stray from their routine. I’ve tried serving them the vastly superior…

Yup. This is my DD right now, and I don’t ever plan to sell it. It just feels right.

Seconded! Some really stunning stories in that collection.

One of my favorite Mountain Goats songs.

I disagree. The Oxford comma is used for a list—similar items or not. In this case, all three items are features on a car.

Exactly. When you shoot instant film—especially Polaroid/Impossible—you really have to know what subjects and lighting work best. Poorly lit, busy interior shots will most likely look like those depressing photo relics from the 80's. Full but soft lighting, vibrant colors, and uncluttered subjects are really what…

There’s a fascinating episode of the “You Are Not So Smart” podcast about vaccine hesitancy. The speaker posited that even when an anti-vax person is on their death bed from COVID, their stance on vaccines/masks does not waiver. They have become so principled in refusing these things in which they do not believe, and a…

Also, if the item is too large, too small, too light, etc. The size/weight/specs are nearly always available to the consumer before purchasing. It’s on you on to read them!

Honest question: Is accounting for how a logo will look reversed something that should be heavily considered? Obviously, if it’s going to spell a vulgar or racist word, that’s a no-go. But why would it matter if it looked like NNNNNNN?

God is my Level 5 Autonomy Co-Pilot.

Between this review and yesterday’s articles on the Ford Maverick, I’m now considering buying two (2!?) new transportation machines that I had never even considered previously. Thank you for that.
