Hell, even “pure” sports cars rarely contain a manual anymore. I look at the used 911 and Lotus Evora market a lot and a stick is rare to find in those cars, (Although the 911 is the one car more likely to have one - but it’s still like 10%) or in the Vantage V8 (basically a unicorn), the Alfa 4C doesn’t even offer

This is the way. 

IMO CVTs are the best way to ruin a car. I’ve yet to drive anything with a CVT yet that didn’t feel like absolute dogshit. 

Rumbleverse actually looks like a ton of fun. 

I had the bog-standard R350 a number of years ago and bulbous looks aside, that was a great family hauler. The most comfortable seats and ergonomics and ride of any car I’ve ever owned. I drove that thing from the Atlantic to the Pacific over the course of 5 days and never got out of the car stiff or with even a

The inset picture of the original just makes the modern one look THAT much worse. 

I don’t care who you are, anyone appreciates being desired. 

The price is a bit high for the mileage. For another 5K you can get a very similar year and condition with 1/8 the mileage fairly easily. 

I live in an area with steeeeeep hills. Having an E bike is great because I can get some exercise without killing myself trying to power up a 15% grade. In spring, summer, and fall I ride my bike to work and get my blood pumping before starting my day without having to arrive at work a sweaty, drippy, mangled mess

None of this is mitigated by offering it first to the original performers who declined. Not even a little. Not a smidge or even a one single jot. This is unforgivable, forever and always a stain on Indo-Cauc relations. 

I finally played it just this year. (Perfect game for the steam deck on a long plane ride, btw, the battery lasts forever.) I love the pacing of it. It just propels you along to the finale. It’s a very ...tidy game.

I would love to see something more surreptitious: deal with cheaters by identifying them via something like the method above, but don’t notify them or ban them. Instead, block them from joining normal matches. Force them onto quarantined servers where everyone they are playing against is cheating as well. Then sit

Don’t bring nuance to the internet. We ain’t havin’ it!

This show is having massive crossover appeal with tons of people who would never pick up the game and play it. It’s all anyone at work is talking about. I’m so glad to see it land so well. Also, Pascal’s monologue with his brother was just amazing television.

That’s why that place looked familiar. I passed through there years ago on my way to Banff on a trip with my bestest buddy. 

I’m not a fan of the floating hand in games. You do all this work to make it immersive, but the hands don’t have a wrist? I get that the wrist will block the view, but I have wrists in real life and yeah, sometimes they are in front of my face, but I somehow manage.

do modern cars HAVE adjustements? My older vehicles with H4 headlights had those two screws you could use. Modern cars just seem to have a fixed box that you plug the halogen bulb in through the back but I see no ability to adjust the angle of the beam produced. My BMW does it’s own little self-leveling headlight dip

Me, 4 cars back: Ayyy! What tha feck are dooin up there, takin’ selfies and shit with the drive thru? Get a move on, lady, I gotta get my crotch goblin to daycare and make it ta wark and yer makin’ me late with ya tikki tokkis an’ whatnot.

Plus, I loved his work in Iron Man. 

Peter Stormare AND a trebuchet?
