Yep! I owned a ‘72 Super Beetle. It was essentially a lawnmower engine in a car 😆

I just sold my ‘09 Cooper S. Minis can be had for close to $50K now with a JCW package. They’re averaging in the high $20-low $30k range.

First look on my face.

Huh...you’re right! I could have sworn they have a V6 version!

It was originally white, but turned brown from the exhaust :D

(I kid- VM makes a fantastic diesel.)

Shipping an American car to Europe was hella-expensive back then. Someone must have really wanted a Firebird. Wonder if it was the V6 version...wasn’t there some kind of issue driving American V8s over there?

I maintain the new Beetle WAS NOT A BEETLE.

If I uploaded proprietary information at my company to a personal device or service that made it accessible outside of the company security system, I’d be fired, sued, or both. Not sure how this guy is justifying his actions in his head.

Alternate take:

The Fire Phone was simply ahead of its time for what they wanted to do. Android in that era was clunky crap, and Amazon built on top of it, making it crappier. Had hardware been more advanced and Alexa devices were around at the time, it might have worked.

I’m thinking if Amazon tried again and made an…

What is it with “I HATE EVERYTHING” blogs anyway? If they want to make a live(ish) action remake of a movie, fine. Maybe it will be good. Maybe not. Let people that want to enjoy such things have their fun.

How the hell am I supposed to publicly bash Trump now?????

Because that means they’re hard-set on a certain look for the character instead of taking auditions. 

I always thought The Mask was a good pseudo-superhero platform...it had a Roger Rabbit feel to it that just ‘worked’. However, it’s also a character Jim Carrey is was cut out to play...you need a “rubbery” actor that’s great at improvisation, and not too many of them exist. Chris Farley, Steve Martin, Richard Pryor,…

Yeah, I have the overclock edition of the 1070 with a Devils Lake i5 that also auto-overclocks to 4.0Ghz. Far Cry 5 plays smooth as can be with most everything cranked up. We’re definitely in that “Blu-Ray vs DVD” territory where graphics are getting to that point where they’re good enough for most people and any…

Heavy duty bird droppings...

I used to have that card. The major problem with it is DirectX support.

I’ve honestly haven’t found a single reason to upgrade my 1070ti. I usually upgrade when new games get laggy...that ain’t happening.

I’m on board.

When I hear “logic board” it makes me grind my teeth. Why can’t they just say “motherboard” like everyone else?

Again...the dude has no idea what’s he’s doing or how anything works.
