IIRC VW employs an entire team just to make sure the sound the door makes when it closes is right. I’d imagine there’s quite a bit of effort involved in getting the panel gaps right as well.

Same. Good friend can’t play most first person games because it gives him vertigo, if it can be fixed with settings tweaks that would be great.

The Soviets shared a lot of stuff with the Chinese when they were still around, they had a habit of sharing technology with other commies.

5th: Gee, maybe artificially limiting the number of people who can drive for-hire in the city was a bad idea. The problem isn’t that Uber exists, it’s that it costs so much to be a taxi driver in the first place.

Yup, I noticed after the Grand Am developed a few battle scars I got more leeway from other drivers.

Tough but fair.

There’s even more freedom once you get to the point where you don’t even care to bother taping it up anymore.

That and the shortening are weird to me. I’m not a fan of shortening in almost any context, but it’s really really out of place in pasta sauce.

You miss that part? “Who’s gonna pay for it?” isn’t why transportation projects in California fail.

And here I was thinking they’d use it to finish up dental hygienist school like they promised. I’ve been duped!

Can this be a recurring series on Jalopnik?

He hasn’t apologized because his party hasn’t forced him to, it’s that simple. There haven’t been consequences for what he did so why would he apologize?

I mean the reason for that is because of the draft. A lot of those Vietnam soldiers wanted absolutely nothing to do with it but didn’t want to face the consequences of being a draft-dodger.

We have a culture of needing to feel like we’re better than other people, and drug addicts are easy to feel better than.

This, and they seem to suffer from the same problem Nissan does: they let things rot on the vine too long.

I guess if this is what it takes to get the WRX hatch back in the US it’s a good thing.

As someone who collects firearms, at a certain point you have to establish a limit on how large the collection can be and work from there. If you want the new thing, one of the old things has gotta go first.

Eh, most gun owners are pretty level headed*. Even if you were justified in shooting someone who had “kidnapped” you, you’re still gonna be wrapped up in court about it forever.

Same, and they don’t allow comments because Spanfeller is a thin-skinned herb.

It’s a weird distinction people make. Crab spend all their time at the bottom in the mud and that’s a delicacy, but if something with fins hangs out down there it’s apparently a problem.
