I used to do the same with my Golf R. I don’t recommend, lol.

Is it just me or does it sound like he’s actually saying that the idea of women wanting a different car than men is in itself stupid?

The industry built up around convincing people to shell out money to make gifts look presentable is absolutely bonkers. I gave up wrapping paper a decade ago, spent the first couple years with my girlfriend getting shamed about it, this year she finally switched over. We saved some coin and feel better knowing we’re…

Amen. I’m still not sure ride of Skywalker is any good considering I saw it well past my bedtime, but I do know I enjoyed the hell out of it except for a few weird parts (C3PO’s eyes turning red after that event? Really? Kinda lame.) It might be a mediocre movie, it might not age well, but I enjoyed it for what it was.

This. I can drive on most dirt roads these rigs frequent in a stock GTI if I really want to. These things are outfitted with gear not out of some functional necessity but because their owners want to load them up with gear. Which, awesome! Have a blast! But driving on a forest service road isn’t hardcore, my stock…

Looking forward to the comments. Everyone’s for less greenhouse emissions until you tell them they’re gonna have to eat less meat.

Do we currently have an inadequate understanding of sea currents? Asking because I thought we had a pretty good grasp and didn’t know there was wide variation over time.

How is seafloor mapping useful for weather forecasting?

This is very sound advice.

Stop it.

I learned to drive in a ‘65 Mustang on the freeways of LA; no power steering, a smidge of power assistance with braking, and something that kind of counted as “suspension”.

Driving modern cars is a cakewalk.

I just realized this all happened more than a handful of years ago. Fuck I’m getting old.

I lived in Downtown LA a few years back and there was a guy running a small store around the block from me. When I first discovered it I thought, “OMFG THIS IS EPIC!!”

After going there a few times to rent movies I remembered why these stores don’t compare to streaming online.

- Walking to the store to get a specific…

They don’t get watermelon snow there? Cause this sure looks similar to watermelon snow:

The assumption here is that people want to buy ANY concept car...even the bad ones.

One person sees inconsistency, I see a planned pattern for performance that I just don’t understand. :)

It’s not necessarily a “bad” thing that Google is deciding what results you see when searching.

- It’s bad that Google isn’t transparent about this.
- It’s bad if you’re a company that suffers when Google modifies a search result at your expense, aren’t alerted about it, and have no recourse.
- It’s not bad if an…

As a part of the product development cycle it’s easy to assume what users will value the most and therefore where you should invest your resources. This is a path to development cycles that are too long and wasted resources, regardless of how many resources you have available. This is why you launch an MVP (minimum…

I think in general people are comparing their experience on Disney+ to their experiences on other more mature platforms like Netflix. Consumers are ruthless these days especially in such a saturated market.

I’m biased towards “shit happens” because I’m a product designer in tech and don’t expect things to go well month…

Welcome to the world of product launches.

This is also applies for everyone that waits, standing, to be on the plane as soon as possible. Unless you’re flying Southwest, in which case bless your heart, you have an assigned seat. Just chill the fuck out and be the last one on the plane.
