I’ve switched over to vivaldi for when I’m at work. Much more snappy!

This. Firefox’s last update pre-57 actually killed all performance gains FF used to have on my laptop. Where formerly I could have 100+ tabs open to no ill effect (2~ GB in RAM, I’m a bit of a reader), one day it updates and suddenly it’s dying after only 15 tabs (at 5~ GB.)

Heck, I used Opera BEFORE they changed the…

Vivaldi is almost as bad as Chrome in terms of memory usage (it is based on Chromium, after all), but it more than makes up for that in pretty much every other way imaginable.

Heated seats are for pleebs, heated steering wheels are true luxury and worth every penny!

Porn sites, duh.

Bollard prices seem shockingly reasonable. Of course, installation is not included.

Ha why? Because they drive it in the snow?

Toyota HQ right now:

Thats actually pretty clever because it’s executed very cleanly.

IIRC GSF was a hit. Even Clarkson liked it more than the M5.

I set it to 70 or 72 and forget about it. Modern technology is great!

I keep thinking the same thing
